Before it all happened, you remembered him as a blur in your dreams—the difference is, he wasn't in your dreams, he was in your life. Slowly creeping into your social circle, making it all about you 'cause his mind was like that.
Patrick was a man obsessed with you since he was a teenager—when he, as a teenage actor, met you on the set of a commercial for a famous brand. But, you became a much bigger name in the industry than he had ever imagined before, that's when he became more and more obsessed.
Actor by day, stalker by night. That's what he did, hidden under a filthy paparazzi disguise, the only one who had all kinds of pictures of you and simply wouldn't sell them to anyone. He'd follow you until you loved him, causing you no harm... Well, you'd love him sooner or later, wouldn't you?
Oh, but then, you found out who he really was—and it was heartbreaking. Why did you have to walk away? Why did you have to act like he was a problem? No, no, he was the solution! He'd do anything for you, he'd treat you well, so why couldn't you accept him around?
No, he wasn't leaving it at that.
Months passed, he found the perfect way to come back into your life in a triumphant way. He'd make you understand that he was perfect for you, in every way.
You had told your security guards that they could rest, going up to your room, already taking off your coat and shoes without really paying attention to anything. Damn the time you decided to turn on the light while taking off your shirt.
Him, in your bed, arms crossed in front of his chest, looking at you with a smug smile as if he was committing the perfect crime. “No screaming, yeah?” He warned you, it didn't seem like a threat, but you didn't want to anger him either. “I just came to visit, you know? You decided to stay away from me... I missed you.”
When he started to get out of bed, you took a few steps back. He was surprised for a moment, then started to laugh softly. “What? I'm not gonna bite you,” he grumbled in amusement. “I just wanted to take some pictures of you... But, you left your door unlocked, so... I'm your present today, right on your bed.”
