a funny thing just happened

At the same time I (actually) moved in to my boyfriend's apartment, which I guess was around June 1, a couple moved in to the empty apartment next door. Our location in the building is pretty cool, because we only share a border with one other apartment (on our level) since we're on the corner. I don't think we're loud people, but I guess we do tend to play our music a bit loud. The wife, Tracy, has come over a couple of times to ask us to turn down our music; while it sucks, I'd rather that she do that instead of calling the manager or something. Apparently she gets up at 4am or something, so she goes to bed pretty early; playing our music past 9pm was too much for her to handle. We talked about soundproofing the wall between the apartments, but as of now we've opted to not do it. We just try to be more quiet than normal between 9-10pm, and then past 10pm we try to be extra quiet in whatever we're doing. We haven't had any problems all week, or so I thought.

Until tonight.

When I got home from work, I noticed that a folded up wad of yellow legal pad paper had been shoved under our doormat, our names scribbled on the top (mine spelled incorrectly, as it usually is; while I don't have a particularly difficult name, the spelling usually catches people, as it's not "the norm"). I unfolded this wad and proceeded to read the following message (I'm going to type this word for word, and keep in mind the stupid shorthand is not my own doing, as I would never write "you" as "u" or anything of the like):

u guys are so nice...

I hope u know This comes from a good place, and from the perspective of saying something in case you would want to know -

If I am assuming you would want to know and you did not, I totally apologize and hope Either way there are no awkward feelings!

anyways, I hesitated b4 writing this - but...

I was up between 2-3AM - hard to sleep... These walls are Thin...

Really, I just want to let u know That I, and others heard your fun-lovin'...

and this comes to u only because I would want someone to tell me....OR, next time, just invite us over!!
J/Kidding! Anyways, maybe we should talk about sound-proofing again - you guys let me know, k! Take care! T.

I stood on my doorstep and read this note; then I burst out laughing. Our fun-lovin'? Unfortunately, I happened to be asleep at 2am and didn't hear anyone fucking, but I'm kind of sorry I missed it. Ah, who am I kidding, I'm really sorry I missed it, it would have been entertaining. Needless to say, we weren't the ones making the noise, and for some reason I was compelled to explain this fact to my neighbors immediately.

I knocked on the door and Tracy answered. "Are you, like, totally embarassed, or what?" she asked me.

"Well, I would be if it had been us, but I honestly don't even know what you're talking about, I was passed out at 2am."

"Really?? It totally sounded like it was coming from your apartment, it was like a porn movie or something. I felt like I was listening to a porn movie or something!"

"Haha, well, nope, it wasn't us..."

"Damn, it was so loud, too! I think there were, like, three orgasms in all! It was totally keeping me up, but that isn't the kind of thing I wanted to bang on the wall about - besides, I was thinking of you, and it sounded really good for you, I thought you were having a great time! I was mad you guys just didn't invite us over or something!"

"Heh heh, yeah...I'm sorry I missed it, I wonder who it was."

"Yeah, well, we totally thought it was you! I was jealous, I wanted to come over!"

The conversation continued for a few more minutes along those lines, and then I went home. I had thought, when I originally read the note, that she was just making light of the situation (i.e. joking) when she said we should have invited her over. When she mentioned it three times in the five minute span of our conversation, it hit me that maybe she wasn't joking. Who knows.

I'm scared to have sex in the bedroom now -- she'll probably be listening as she touches herself. Part of me, though, wants to do it really loud and if I get another note.
