Go for it

No, you need this. You can't be satisfied with last night alone.

You turn the knob and open the door a sliver. The hallway, you notice, is still unoccupied. You poke your head out the door to get a better look. It doesn't sound like anyone is coming up the steps. Your brother is probably in the middle of a game and won't leave his room.

Now is as good a time as any.

Swinging your door open, you scamper across the carpeted hallway with your clothes in hand, eyes fixated on the steps leading down to the first floor to make sure no one is there. You rush into the bathroom, drop your clothes on the floor, and shut the door behind you. You lean back against it, your mouth agape.

You actually did it. You ran through the hallway naked. And unlike last night, you know for sure this time that no one saw you.

That was...exhilarating. You might even go so far as to say it was fun. You can still feel your heart thumping in your chest.

You're now 2-for-2 in getting away with your secret activities. Maybe it isn't so dangerous after all. If that's the case, maybe you can even...take it a little further.

You take your shower, do what you need to do for the night, and hop into bed, your mind abuzz with all sorts of ideas.
