Snoopy
As I said, the place was almost too quiet when I fell asleep. So quiet, I heard the sound of a car pulling up outside. I knew the doors were locked downstairs, so I lay there and listened. If Cookie had let it slip I was at the house, it could be one of the guys stopping by. Although I would think they would be on their bikes and not in a car. Unless, of course, one of the old ladies insisted on bringing some stuff by. But then it sounded like whoever was here had a key and let themselves in. Possible Iron had given at least one of the guys a key that lived here in town just in case they needed to come in for anything. I could get up and go down and see who was moving around downstairs, but at the same time, I didn't want to. I wanted the night to myself. I know that wasn't the norm in the club, and most of the guys enjoyed getting together. And don't get me wrong, I enjoyed that part of the club life as well. In fact, I loved the life, but at the same time, I enjoyed my alone time. I enjoyed my quiet time. Not having to talk to anyone. Maybe it was due to how I grew up and spending so much time alone that I grew used to not being around so many people. Either way, I enjoyed my time and took days away from people. Something I wasn't really able to do while in prison, so I don't think one night to myself was much to ask for.
Listening to whoever was in the house moving around, it sounded like they were in the kitchen for a short time and then moved back to the front door. Only they didn't go outside. They started up the stairs. Their movement stopped at the top of the stairs for a couple of seconds before moving down the hall. Maybe I was wrong, and it wasn't any of the guys. By now, if it was and they knew I was here, they would have called out by now. Cookie could have sent one of the girls over, but even so, she would have said something by now. And I don't see him doing that anyway. Even before going to prison, I was never really into the club girls. They were too easy. I liked the chase. I liked the girl to let go and explore her fantasies. The club girls were good in a pinch to let out some steam, but that's what they did. They had s*x with the guys but never did what they liked, only what they thought the guys liked. It took the fun out of things, in my opinion.
Then my bedroom door opened a bit more and whoever was in the house walked into my room. Maybe it was a bit of an overreaction from me by jumping up and grabbing whoever it was, pinning them to the wall. But it was dark, and I couldn't really tell who it was, and I wasn't going to take the chance of whoever it was not being friendly. Also, with how Cora snuck into Iron's place, I wasn't going to take my chances on her mom not trying to do the same to me. Especially if Cookie had let it slip that I was home. I, for one, wasn't going to take the chances that Cora's mom wasn't anything like her daughter. I do have to give it to whoever it was. They had a set of lungs on them. Also, they were nearly a good aim with their knee. If I hadn't moved to the side, they would have most definitely driven their knee home. Once I was sure I had a good enough hold on whoever it was and they wouldn't be able to take out the boys, I reached over and turned the light on.
The first thing I did as soon as the light was on was look down behind me to see what they dropped when I grabbed them. Seeing it was only a phone, I turned my attention back to them. Or should I say her? I didn't know who she was, but if we were out and not standing in my room, I may have tried to hit on her. She was definitely pretty. Blonde wavy hair, blue eyes, slightly tanned skin, with a body that was evenly proportionate. She wasn't skinny, but she wasn't fat either. Her chest was a good size, not too big but not small either, and complemented her body well. Same for her bottom, not large, but I would hazard a guess that it was more rounded than none existent. But from this angle, I couldn't really tell.
In the time I looked her over, I knew she looked me over as well. In that time, I also remembered that Iron had asked my permission for one of Lexie's friends to use my place to crash when she was in town for work. It also occurred to me that she wouldn't have known I was here because I didn't say anything to Iron about me being let out today. So chances were I probably startled her as much as she had me. With that in mind, I released my hold on her throat. I didn't let her go entirely yet. First, I needed to make sure she wouldn't try and kick me again. The only problem I had was I couldn't for the life of me remember what Iron said her name was. It was an easy name too.
"I take it you are Lexie's friend?"
Slowly she nodded. "Anne. And you must be Iron's friend."
The last part wasn't a question, it was more sarcastic, as though she already figured out who I was. But I answered her as though she had asked anyway.
"Yes, friends call me Snoopy. Now Anne, if I let you go, are you going to try and knee me again?"
Shrugging, she answered me, still sounding sarcastic. "Depends on if you try to choke me again."
"Promise not to again unless, of course, you ask first. And even then, I may have to make you beg for it first for the boys' sake."
Slowly, I let her go and took a couple of steps back. Rolling her eyes, she stepped away from the wall.
"Does that line really work?"
Shrugging, I couldn't help but smile at her and wink at her, causing her to roll her eyes again.
"Only when the beautiful woman I use it on is into that sort of thing."
Bending down, I picked up her phone and held it out to her. Slowly she reached out, taking her phone from me. The blush on her cheeks was hard to miss as her whole face turned red. Even still, she did her best not to show it as she narrowed her eyes at me.
"Iron didn't tell me you would be back home yet. I will go back to getting a room in town."
Turning, she started to head back out of my room. Without thinking, I stepped in her way, blocking the doorway.
"No need to do that when I have a spare room. Besides, the hotel in town isn't the best of places for a single woman to be at by herself. No need to change your sleeping arrangements because I am back home. You are free to use the room whenever you want. Also, don't be mad at Iron. I didn't exactly tell him I was getting out today."
Crossing her arms in front of her, she looked me up and down a couple of times before sighing and nodding her head.
"Fine, but try anything, and my knee will be the least of your worries."
Moving out of her way, I couldn't help but let my smile grow slightly and nod my agreement to her threat. I say threat loosely as I silently accepted the challenge. She would be hard to get, but as I said before, I enjoyed the chase.
