I fu*king hate my next-door neighbor, Piper.<\/p>\n

She always turns her nose up whenever we bump into each other in the hallway, tells me to lower my music when I can barely hear it myself, finds something wrong with me, and glares at me every chance she gets. It\u2019s like she gets offended by the very air I breathe.<\/p>\n

It shouldn\u2019t turn me on, but it does.<\/p>\n

Especially since it\u2019s hard to ignore just how beautiful she is, how her eyes light up when she\u2019s genuinely happy, or how she tries to mask her sadness with anger.<\/p>\n

I fu*king hate Piper.<\/p>\n

Mostly because she ignores me.<\/p>\n

So I do what every mature, self-respecting man in his mid-30s does when he\u2019s attracted to someone who won\u2019t ever give him the time of day\u2014I piss her off, then flirt with her, then ask her out.<\/p>\n

Piper thinks I\u2019m joking.<\/p>\n

She never says no, just rakes her eyes up and down my body and turns her back on me with a scoff.<\/p>\n

Fine, Piper. Fine. I get the message.<\/p>\n

Challenge accepted.<\/p>\n
