Home Invasion

I live in a studio apartment (a 300 Square Foot living room). The foot of my bed is 5 feet from the door. 

Last night I forgot to lock the door before sleep. GF sleeping next to me.


So at about 3 AM, all at once, a drunk girl swings open the door to my apartment, takes a big confident step in, her friend yells: “NO!! WRONG DOOR!” and I automatically spring up awake into a seated upright position screaming “AAAAAH” as a kind of animal self defense, to scare off the intruders. 


Blood flooded with adrenaline. I was instantly compelled to rise up to defend against whatever just opened my door. 


And then my brain caught up to the situation, and the drunk girls said “Oh my god oh my god, sorrryyyy” and I just said “Fuck” and rubbed my face and locked the door and consoled gf and went back to sleep. She experienced it as a dream.
