A bad high

Rosalie

I’ve never been happier to see my apartment building.

I’m drained. I can’t think of anything better than going home after a long day of classes.

I push open the revolving doors and walk inside the lobby, seeing my favorite concierge ever. My smile grows. “Hey, Andrew.”

His pale face heats with warmth, and he smiles back at me. “Rosie, darling. How are you?”

I sigh. “A bunch of homework and not enough time.”

He laughs, and the sound makes me feel warm. Andrew told me he’s been working at this apartment building for twenty years and has seen all of the changes the building’s been through.

When I first moved in, I used to talk to him a lot. I find it endearing that he says I remind him of his granddaughter. I always wondered what my grandparents were like. My father’s grandparents were loaded and bought him his first house, but I never got to know them because they died when I was still young.

I never really heard about my mother's parents. My mother once told me that she didn’t have the life I had and wasn't given everything like I was. Other than that, I know nothing about them.

“Well, I won’t keep you,” he says. “I’ll just give you your mail and let you go on your way.”

He hands me a bouquet of flowers and a small cardboard box. I can’t stop the grin that blooms over my face at the sight of those flowers.

“Got yourself a boyfriend?” he asks.

“No, just a friend,” I say.

He shakes his head as I take the flowers and box from him. “Friends don’t give other friends flowers, Rosie.”

I smile sweetly at Andrew. “It’s not like that. We really are just friends.” Friends who’ve seen each other naked. But I don’t mention that to him.

“See you later, Andrew,” I call out as I make my way to the elevator.

I head towards my apartment door, unlock it, and step inside. I look down at the flowers grinning at the fact Grayson bought me flowers again. I replace the roses with these new ones. They’re different this time but equally as beautiful. Blue. The most beautiful blue I’ve seen.

I notice a card stuck to the white paper the flowers are wrapped in. I pick up the card and open it up.

The woman said these were called tulips.

They reminded me of what you were wearing last time I saw you.

And now I’m thinking of your lips.

I can’t contain the smile I let out. I love that he thought of me when buying me flowers. I love that he asked the woman what to buy. I love that he’s thinking of kissing me again because that’s all I can think of.

I’m thinking of that night all over again. Loving what and how it happened but hating how it ended. I haven’t seen him since. We don’t really talk outside of the ‘lessons.’ He texts me whenever he wants to see me, and I reply, but other than that, we don’t really communicate.
