She was a heavy sleeper.
Sophia didn’t wake when I let myself into her apartment, or when I
slid the book from under her hand to see what she was reading this week.
I put the book back carefully and picked up the bottle of body lotion
that sat on the bedside table, then twisted off the lid and breathed it in.
Vanilla and cinnamon. Her favorite. I put it back and studied her lying
there.
My mother had read fairy tales to my brother when he was little. I used
to sit outside his room and listen. I hadn’t really understood them. I wasn’t
one for whimsy. I wasn’t one for anything at all when it came to the finer
nuances of emotion, but I’d come to think of Sophia Brennan as my very
own little Sleeping Beauty.
When Seamus asked me to find out everything there was to know about
her, I did the usual: her address, details of her building’s security, the places
she regularly went to, the people she spent time with. She worked from
home as a graphic designer, so that kept her list of in-person acquaintances
short. I’d also bribed the receptionist at her doctor’s office and gotten a
copy of her medical records.
I’d handed all the information over to Seamus. Job done.
But then, I’d come back—repeatedly—only these times while she was
here. While she slept.
She whimpered in her sleep now, her leg kicking out, her arm jerking
back. The sound gripped me low in the gut, my body reacting as if she’d
made the sound just for me.
Sophia suffered from REM sleep behavior disorder, which meant she
often physically acted out her dreams and nightmares—thrashing,
screaming, talking, crying, moaning in her sleep. All that restlessness had
resulted in a secondary disorder: hypersomnolence. She needed more sleep
than others, slept for longer periods, sometimes needed naps, and, in
Sophia’s case, very heavily.
She whimpered again, and I stepped closer.
I didn’t know why I kept returning to her bedroom week after week. I
didn’t do things like this. I studied her face, like I always did, as if she
could somehow give me the answers. Her head was to the side, her cheeks
pink, flushed. The blond hair at her temples was damp. She always had too
many covers on. I peeled one back, like I did every time I came here. The
nights I didn’t visit, I wondered if she was too hot or if she’d thrashed so
much she’d hurt herself. Why? I had no idea. I didn’t know why I thought
about her at all.
Yes, she was beautiful—you didn’t need to be in possession of a wide
variety of emotions to see that—but there were lots of beautiful women in
this city. She had a good body; nice tits, a round ass that jiggled when she
walked, and a tight waist I imagined wrapping my hands around while I
fucked her from behind.
