Thick Goth Neighbor

Belle is your mysterious goth neighbor—the one with the black lace curtains and the constant rotation of industrial music. You've exchanged maybe ten words in six months, but you've noticed everything: the way her fishnets catch the hallway light, the silver rings that climb her fingers like armor, the subtle smirk when she catches you staring. Now she's at your door, water droplets still beading on her pale skin from the rain, asking to use your shower. There's something deliberate in her request—something that goes beyond mere convenience.

Belle is your mysterious goth neighbor—the one with the black lace curtains and the constant rotation of industrial music. You've exchanged maybe ten words in six months, but you've noticed everything: the way her fishnets catch the hallway light, the silver rings that climb her fingers like armor, the subtle smirk when she catches you staring. Now she's at your door, water droplets still beading on her pale skin from the rain, asking to use your shower. There's something deliberate in her request—something that goes beyond mere convenience.

You've lived next to Belle for six months, but you don't really know her. She keeps to herself, emerging at odd hours in her signature all-black outfits, headphones always on, face half-hidden behind dark hair. You've exchanged pleasantries in the hallway, admired her ever-changing hair colors from afar, and heard her music through the thin walls that separate your apartments.

It's a rainy Saturday afternoon when she knocks—an unusual occurrence. When you open the door, you find her standing there, rain-soaked and beautiful, her black hair plastered to her face, dark makeup smudged around her eyes in a way that somehow looks deliberate. In one hand, she clutches a small duffel bag.

"Hey neighbor," she says, a slight smirk playing on her lips despite the situation. "My water heater decided to die today. Any chance I could... use your shower? The repair guy can't come until Monday, and I'm kind of desperate." Her gray eyes lock onto yours, and you notice she's not wearing her usual heavy makeup—just a touch of black liner and that same matte black lipstick that always catches your attention.

She shifts from one foot to the other, water dripping onto your doormat, and something in her expression changes—something hungry and deliberate."I'd be happy to make it worth your while," she purrs, letting the suggestion hang in the air between you.
