Eric stood in front of a white door. Gold numbers proclaimed, in their own quiet way, that this was the door to apartment 16B. He shuffled his feet and looked down the hallway, hoping for an excuse not to enter, when no distraction appeared- he knocked. There was only silence on the other side of the door. He knocked once more before deciding to try the hand...
I had gone back to work stocking closets. I had lost more than two hours lost in work and concentration. My work stocking closets involved little to no brain power, so this allowed me to drift further and further into reverie about what had happened in the 1st floor closet between me and Dale. I spent those two hours reliving those moments, and thinking wher...
Something weird happened last night and I am very conflicted about it. I've been traveling across the country with my band and we've been crashing in people's houses along the way. They're small shows, we're barely breaking even financially and if we can keep that up it will be a huge success. Our fan base is growing so that's cool. Sadly there are not a lot...
It was the annual benefit picnic for the VFD, and it was hot. A hundred degrees in the shade, and record-shatteringly humid. As my wife and I sat listening to the band and sucking down the lemonade, a strange sensation came over me. Usually I was not a hot weather person, but this extreme heat felt like a sauna, and as I got used to the sweat, I started feel...
I woke up that day like any other day. Stretching whole-heartedly with a big yawn, I tossed my wrinkled covers over me once more and lingered in bed for another forty-five minutes. Once I got bored of scrolling through my newsfeed and responding to the occasional message, I decided to drag myself out of bed, brush my teeth, shower, and change. And I did thes...
Alex Beep Beep Beep Beep I open my heavy eye lids and see a cold sterile hospital room. I attempted to turn my head but the pain that explodes in my skull causes me groan. A small nurse pokes her head in the door and smiles, "good to see you're awake hun." She comes to my bedside, checking my vitals before giving me something to help with the pain,"Don't...
When I was 16 I saw my father kissing another woman. I got me really mad and went to tell my mother. That's when I learned that my parents had an open marriage and that they had never been exclusive. It really shook me at first but then I found it kind of cool that my parents were not sexually repressed. Since we were being honest, I told them that I was g...
Billy's eyes bulged and his jaw dropped. "Uncle Paul? Mum's brother?" I nodded. "When?" he asked. "This goes no further Billy. OK? It started a long time ago, before we adopted you. In fact just before your mum and I married." "Go on. How did it happen?" "Well Paul was living in Australia for a few years, but he wanted to come back for your mum's and my w...
I had a concussion and was kept in for twenty-four hours for observation to ensure that I was ok. I was more embarrassed than anything else, having paid no attention to the road and daydreaming about Dan fucking me. Cal found it highly amusing, eventually, after the initial scare. He picked me up and took me home. He didn't seem at all bothered that I had me...
"It's ok. You can tell me anything," he would say as he wrapped his arms around me giving me much needed comfort. Well that's how it went in my dream anyway. Unfortunately real life is not something we get to control and the look of total disgust on Wesley's face as I told him that I was HIV positive was enough to make me physically ill. His bags were pac...
