“Maddie! Damnit, Maddie, what’s happening?” Axel’s raised voice breaks through my fear.
“I… There’s a noise.” I take a step away from the couch. “It sounds like something is breaking, or shattering, or something…” I whisper into the phone.
With shaking hands, I change my phone to speaker so I can have both ears free.
What the hell am I hearing?
The noise gets louder as I head towards the hallway.
“Maddison!” Axel snaps.
“I think it’s in the bathroom,” I answer, creeping closer to the open door.
“What’sin the bathroom?!”
“Shh!” I hush him as I approach.
The source of the sound is definitely coming from inside here. What I thought was the sound of breaking glass actually sounds like more of an echo, and there’s a slight buzzing quality to it.
What the…?
Reaching around the edge of the doorframe I flip on the light and peek inside.
“Maddie, so help me…”
But whatever threat Axel promises is lost to me, because my brain has slowed to a stop.
Is that?
A small blue blur is rattling around inside my glass shower stall. Bouncing off the walls, the vibrations amplified in the small space.
“Oh my god!” I slap a hand over my mouth but it’s too late.
“Maddie! What the fuck is happening!” Axel roars through the phone.
“Nothing!” I squeak. “It’s fine! False alarm!”
“I can hear it. What. Is. Happening.”
“It’s nothing! Sorry, I’ll talk to you later! Gotta go!” I hurry through the words and hang up before Axel can question me more.
With a laugh stuck in my throat, I fling the shower door open and scoop up the rogue vibrator.
Pressing my free hand to my chest, trying to calm my racing heart, my laugh starts to break free.
“I can not believe that just happened.”
Using my thumb, I depress the button on the end of Little Vibey to turn it off.
Only it doesn’t stop.
“What the hell?”
I set down my phone and try again, pressing on the button harder, but nothing happens.
A third and fourth try prove the same results.
“Well… shit.”
