Nathan, now there's a name one can commit to memory. He was handsome in that bad boy kind of way, that way that made you want to tear your clothes off every time he looked your way. He was the kind of guy you could never really see yourself with long-term, but he was sweet, smart and very sensual. He worked at night so I only really ever saw him during the day, but every time I saw him oh what nights they became.
Nathan was kind of like a far away lusting object for me, I never introduced myself to him, never talked to him, never even made him aware that I looked at him whenever I had the chance. We had some mutual friends and they had offered several times to introduce us, but every time I declined. It's not that I am a shy girl, I just had not had much faith in men since my last relationship. So for months on end I would go to where Nathan worked, stare at him through the next aisle over then go home with my mind filled with saucy mental pictures. My best friend Hedi was always joking about me 'wearing out the batteries' before I even met Nathan face-to-face.
I was on my way with a couple of friends to a Halloween party that was being held in a warehouse downtown, when I spotted Nathan going into the same building with another girl on his arm. My breath caught in my throat and I felt glued to the ground, but why was I acting like this...Nathan wasn't my guy, he wasn't even an ex. Hedi saw my hesitation and simply told me that this was enough.
"Hannah, what's your deal anyway? You've never met the guy, he's never met you, and you both are wearing costumes for crying out loud! If you want him so badly you should get off your ass and get him." Having said her peace she left me to stand there.
Catching up with her, I stared at her and simply said, "fine."
Inwardly gloating, I knew I looked good. My long dark hair was tied behind my head and was hidden underneath a long velvet hooded robe. I had small bone-like chest plates covering my ample breasts and one covering my naked pussy, other than that I was completely nude...told you I wasn't shy. I run and I am a vegetarian so my body is slender and not overly skinny, the other thing that made me smile was the fact that I knew that even if I talked to Nathan tonight, he wouldn't know me anyway because my face was painted like an aboriginal skull. I could do this.
Walking into the building I let my coat slide from my shoulders as I gave it to the woman at the door, she cocked her eyebrow at me and was grinning. I smiled a fake sinister smile back at her through my face paint.
Hedi's boyfriend Josh came up to us, kissing Hedi softly and looking appreciatively at me, he told Hedi, "Yeah, that'll do it."
At this she laughed softly and nodded. I knew suddenly that they had planned this, but I didn't care.
