it didn't feel real, it didn't feel like it could be real -- getting the call from nick that the cops had actually arrested and detained this stalker of hers before he had the chance to harm her? shit like this didn't happen, not often, if ever and now that it was finally safe she wanted to return to her apartment -- if not to stay, just to look over what she'd left behind. she hadn't minded living with nick, in fact she had enjoyed it a lot more than she expected to but the one thing she had missed was her own space. sure, she had decorated nicks place and it had quite a bit of her stuff now because of all this but it wasn't hers. it wasn't how she would decorate her own place, she wanted it to be his taste just, not as bland and boring and unlived in as his other homes had been.
so she was a little excited to return even if her nerves still fired off and she had an uneasy feeling in her gut. he was behind bars, at least for this moment so she thought she was safe to do so. that was at least until the moment her eyes lifted to lock with his. her stalker, standing across the hallway and kassy felt her blood run cold. she felt as if she was in a horror movie, jabbing at the button to close the elevator doors as he drew closer. her breathing grew shaky as panic gripped her tightly and she bit back the urge to scream. the door closed before he could enter but he hadn't been running towards it, no, like a fucking psycho he walked, staring her down with black obsessive eyes that made her skin crawl.
leaning back against the elevator as it headed up to her floor, she panted heavily, tightly clutching her phone as her eyes stung with tears. ever since the halloween party she'd finally found out what the fuck he looked like and that was him. whoever nick had said they had in custody wasn't him. quickly, she dialed nicks number, taking deep breaths to try and stave off her sobs to talk to him clearly. kassy, he said her name over the phone and all the work through deep breathing she'd done went out the window. a whimper escaped her, "he's here," she hissed. "he's here nick, oh god, i don't know what to do, i'm in the elevator!" her voice hitched as she tried to keep it a low whisper but she was terrified. nick was cursing on the other end before speaking to her in a soft urgency. hang on, i'm coming to you.
she pulled out her key from her purse, hands shaking. he wouldn't run up the stairs while she was in here would he? and the staircase came out closer to her room than the elevator. her heart was racing so fast she felt lightheaded, body stiff as she readied herself to potentially book it down the hall. but if he was there she'd turn her ass around and go back downstairs. she tried to explain to nick what was happening between her panicked breaths, hands shaking as she readied herself for when the elevator stopped on her floor and open.
tears streaked her cheek and she swallowed thickly, time seeming to slow as she got to her floor. the elevator dinging as the doors opened and she winced, curling in on herself as her hand hovered by the close door button at the possibility that he was standing in front of it. she braced herself, a quiet whimper being heard on the phone but the doors opened and no one was there. relief rushed through her but only temporarily as she then exited and peered down the hall. no one, again. a scared noise escaped her throat as she then ran to her room, holding tightly to her key as she got to her door. hands trembled making it near impossible as she heard the stairway door open.
glancing back she nearly screamed as it was him, stalking towards her with a smile so unnerving, the kind of obsession she never wanted. "fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck." she began to cry as she tried to open the door, regretting the choice to come here even for a second. her phone clattered to the ground as she needed both hands to open the door before she quickly bolted inside and slammed it shut. hands scrambled to lock the door as she felt his weight push against it, this time a full scream of terror escaping her. "NO!"
