Just as Lena and I were having a great conversation, I heard a door open and close across the hall. Ms. Brown had mentioned a new tenant was moving in today, so I figured my new neighbor had finally arrived.

"Do you think I should introduce myself? You know, just in case something like last night happens again. It might be easier to ask for help," I asked Lena.

"If your new neighbor's a guy and you go knocking on his door right after he moves in, he might think you're either way too friendly or, worse, a total creep," Lena said, making me laugh. ""Really?" I asked.

"Really," she confirmed.

Alright, I guess I'll just wait for a random run-in.

You'd think I'd bump into someone living right across the hall, but nope. For the next two days, I didn't see the new neighbor even once, and Hayden didn't show up either.

So, the hero saved the day once and then just dipped, not caring if that blind date guy might come back for round two?

Yeah, that definitely knocked Hayden down a peg in my book.
