Jake

He cruised around Bourbon Street at 2am eyeing up the women by the road.
He talks to one he likes, chats with her for a while.
"Where you wanna do this?" she asks intently. Her eyes big and blue. Her lips luscious and full. Her hair was blonde with brown roots. Typical, yeah, so what? Certain gals Jake liked and he knew what he wanted.
"I got this place two block down the road."
It wasn't actually a 'place', he was bunking the night at the Days Inn downtown. They walked down the busy street. For a Saturday night Bourbon Street was crowded as usual. The usual crowd.

On the way down he saw a couple making out beside their car. They noticed Jake staring. But he was never one to pry on other people.
I could be that couple, he thought, and I wouldn't want to have people prying in my business.

They arrived at the hotel just before it started to rain. Fuck that was close!
She smiled at him while he opened the door for her. They strolled through the tiny lobby and got in teh elevator. As it went up 13 floors, Jake realised he was standing right behind her...
