He watched her through her window as she looked in the mirror and brushed her hair, knowing that tonight would be the night he would sneak in through her backdoor and they would finally be together. Whether she wanted to or not. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0xQuPq07m

Every now and then she would turn her eyes in his direction while he spied on her, but she would quickly turn her eyes back to her own reflection. A smile spread across his face when her eyes would dart up towards his. On some level he believed that she knew he was out there and that was her way of giving him a green light for what he had planned later.771Please respect copyright.PENANAIYXRwgxmK2

The past two months had been the best in his life. The past two months had been the most frustrating of his life. He found her while they were in line at Starbucks. She was standing in front of him and she ordered a large house coffee.771Please respect copyright.PENANATT2xsHUKMQ

He liked that. Nothing fancy. Just the house coffee. Same as him. A girl who liked to get right to the point. Respectable. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAJalpzLKEJH

She had dark brown hair that smelled like flowers and coconuts. He had inconspicuously leaned in to smell it. It didn't disappoint. She wore a long, burnt orange sweater dress with black leggings and tall brown boots. She had a great sense of style. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAhghJSAfMc1

When the barista handed her the large house coffee, she turned around and nearly bumped into him. An embarrassed smile crept across her face and their eyes met. She had enchanting brown eyes. She didn't wear her makeup too heavy. Again: very respectable. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAgf7TLE0R1E

“Excuse me,” she said quietly as he smiled back at her. Her voice was sweet. Like the singing of angels in his ears.771Please respect copyright.PENANAJm7P9Yrwg1

The most perfect girl in the world walked over to the condiments station and put some cream and sugars into her coffee. All he could do was watch in awe. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAn1ALuAGAlF

She, the most perfect girl in the world, had finished fixing up her coffee and she was walking out the door. He had no choice but to follow her. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAGJD1i2qo8l

He walked far enough behind her that she wouldn't be able to realize that he was in pursuit of her. She and her coffee stepped into the Barnes & Noble. He crept in behind her. He walked up and down the rows of books to try and spot her. Finally he did. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAbUcpJohQhU

There she stood behind the counter, ringing up a customer. Of course she worked in a book store. What else would a high class woman like her do for a living? Of course she was highly literate. All girls as perfect as her were. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAYEVgxsGF6K

When he would spy on her at night he found that she was actually quite a writer. She would spend at least two hours an evening writing on her laptop and another hour reading. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAmF8EBnseLZ

She liked to read when she got out of the shower. With a towel wrapped around her. She drank tea while she did it. It was his favorite time of the night. A few times he had tried to see in her bathroom window while she was showering, but there was too much steam for him to see anything. So he settled for waiting until she was out to spy on her loveliness.771Please respect copyright.PENANAGzu3rN4kOZ

He had watched her thought the window and followed her every move for the last two months. He wanted so badly to go and speak with her, but he could never work up the courage. It was the most frustrating thing he had ever experienced. But just being able to see her every night made it the best two months as well.771Please respect copyright.PENANADvtIbxx2er

He had been waiting for this night. It was Halloween. He would use the holiday as an excuse to finally get to speak to her. He would dress up in a mask, knock on her door and say, “Trick or treat!”771Please respect copyright.PENANAejOmKaWX7M
771Please respect copyright.PENANAbeBfL7YgMV
771Please respect copyright.PENANAGiVtZhL7IE
It would be nice seeing her up close again. He had been able speak to her in person three times. All three times when he was paying for books at the bookstore while she was ringing up his books. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAMXqGImo13T

771Please respect copyright.PENANAiBRLqkyjHf
771Please respect copyright.PENANA3GLkJXTDGz

He considered the first time she had rung him up at the register their first date. The book and the receipt were on his mantle. Two vanilla scented candles burned on either side of the book that embodied their first date. Above the candles and book were dozens of pictures of her that he had taken in secret. It was his shrine in honor of her. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAXgSwAztoAN

She finished brushing her hair and started to put on her Halloween costume. She dressed herself as a nurse. Not a slutty one, mind you, but a real one. A classy one. She was so perfect. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAQN9H64msKx
771Please respect copyright.PENANAbuDo679Vod
771Please respect copyright.PENANAQw71Aq38S6
She straightened her white skirt, grabbed her fake nurse’s bag and pinned her nurse’s hat on her head then walked into her living room so that she could greet the trick or treaters who would start coming soon. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAn3eA9q53Ry

With her out of the room, he slipped on his simple ghost costume. A sheet with holes for eyes. It didn't get any simpler than that. He thought that she respected simplicity. He wanted her respect. He needed her respect. He would get her respect no matter what the cost. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAqjJifCer9f

Darkness had started to fall and he stepped out of his hiding place in the bushes and made his way around to the front of the house. A lone trick or treater was a few houses down. A girl in a cheerleader’s outfit was working the neighborhood for candy. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAK7XCBj7kvH
771Please respect copyright.PENANAWtnEZKG79d
771Please respect copyright.PENANAYPzfC8GsD2
It was the best opportunity for him. He would go up to the porch with the cheerleader. That way he wouldn't arouse suspicion by being much too old for gathering candy. He would look like her dad or older brother. It was perfect. Just like her. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAT1NcLIRaOZ
771Please respect copyright.PENANAvrue9OJZoW

When the cheerleader made her way to the porch he fell in line behind her. The cheerleader rang the doorbell and the most perfect nurse in the world opened the door. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAHmoLgbbvRk

771Please respect copyright.PENANAFrAWAsLpDF
“What a wonderful cheerleader costume!” she said to the little girl as she held out a bucket of candy for her to choose from. The cheerleader took a piece of candy, stuffed it into her bag and headed to the next house. 771Please respect copyright.PENANAc1AdRYrLhE
771Please respect copyright.PENANA60VzDtNUJg

771Please respect copyright.PENANAsIf454HKFI
771Please respect copyright.PENANAWDbuECAaFh

“Hey,” she said, “You look like you probably have some muscles underneath that sheet. Do you think you could come in really quick and take a box of books down from the top of my closet?”771Please respect copyright.PENANA4EIcWhinOQ
771Please respect copyright.PENANACR4RrUc5Ov
771Please respect copyright.PENANADOeNvkXuv7
