Shower

Norton stepped back, he has placed the new Eve back into her place. In every aspect she looked exactly the same as the other Eve minus the wear and tear, but something else was different. could it be the that the other Eve laid on him for over a half an hour or that he had to face her as what was the most humiliating event of his life happened? Or, was it something else? This Eve seemed oddly normal, she didn't have the same aura around her that the other had. "I must be losing it, and I need a shower." He exits the room pulling the door behind him when Lillan enters through the front door. "Hey," she says as she walks in placing her bags on one of the couches near the entrance. "Were you able to replace Eve? Mom told me she was getting worse from falling over all of the time." Norton nodded, but hurried past her to get to the stairs, "Yes, shes up, I'm going to take a shower and head back down to finish everything else." Lillan mumbled something but Norton was already heading up the stairs unable to hear what she said.

The first few minutes in the shower was spent staring at the wall attempting to make sense of it all. "What happened? How? Why? Why did the kiss feel so real? Did I kiss her back? No, I couldn't have." He was in a daze, questions races through him, each one unanswered, each one more profound. He would have been standing under the water pondering for hours if he didn't hear Lillan walk into the apartment. He proceeded with washing off the rest of his body and hurriedly stepped out tossing on a pair of jean shorts, a tee shirt, and he definately did not forget underwear this time. As he steps out of the bathroom he saw Lillan sitting on the couch eating popcorn and watching another of his movies. She did that a lot since the first day he moved in, she would watch maybe one or more of his movies a day, and if not a movie he would notice her playing one of his games. This never bothered him, she still got her work done and would often offer to help him. It was also refreshing to see someone find the humor he saw in each movie. He wanted to sit next to her and watch the rest of the movie but he knew he had a couple more things to finish downstairs. He grabbed a couple baby carrots from the refridgerator and headed downstairs.
