It was already after midnight. You felt like going to a shop for some sweets — pretty typical you. It often happened when lights of the sun bought out another boring day of your life.

So now, you walked back to your house, putting steps in the middle of the street because not many cars were passing at that hour.

Everything was.. pretty quiet. Even birds were sleeping but not you. You were nothing but a night person, cat that wanders around at night and falls asleep in the morning.

But then, familiar voice broke the silence.

“Walking all alone after midnight again? You know it's not safe. What if someone will follow you, fight you, maybe try to kidnap that pretty face of yours? Oh, wait– I'm kinda one of them.. but me is me, no?”

You looked behind you, looking at nothing but an empty street. He giggled in response. – “up here, my love.”

You looked up and saw him crouching on the lamp. You were too tired to question how did he even get up here. He jumped down, straightening without any effort. Steps of his glanny shoes started echoing through the place, as he slowly walked towards you, gaze of his blood red eyes scanning your face. Man gave you that devilish grin of his..

“Mind if I'll walk you home, sweetheart?”
