With fairly good looks, sunkissed skin and light brown hair you are very unassuming, able to be just another face in the background an trait you have used to your advantage. Your life up until this point hadn’t been the easiest kicked out by your homophobic parents as a teen you had spent the last few years on the streets. Barely scraping by you became disil...
After 7 years of being a caregiver, I was sad but wiser when cancer finally stole the great love of my life. I was 62, widowed and an empty nester. Time was my friend, I was free of chemo, doctor's visits, and hospice. It was time to mourn, and then it was time to move forward, to live. No disrespect but I had 7 years to prepare for this day, anticipatory gr...
He doesn't know I've been watching him back. I feel badly about it most days; I watch him get shoved out of the way, I watch his books get smacked out of his hand, and I watch his underwear get pulled so far out of his pants it's a wonder the fabric doesn't rip. Part of me wants to interfere and consequences be damned, but the other part of me gets irritate...

"An Island," I answered, "A little one just off Maldives... Tell me, Doctor, why did you need so many of my pictures, a video of me, and even a sample of my DNA? How am I a part...
Chapter 8: I'm not sure about this.. Oh finally - some quiet time with Sam alone. Thoughts were streaming through my mind of how we could spend our time together before I flew out of the country in the morning... well, in a few hours really. I snuggled up to Sam in the back of the Uber with my carry-on bag next to me. Sam was looking out the side window, n...
Connor's POV: 'Hey stranger, how are you holding up today?' Leo teased in his mock-Southern accent. I love it when he does that, it makes him sound like a sexy cowboy. 'I'm good, and you?' I smiled, he didn't have to know about the stuff with Caytlin. I didn't want to bother him with that, and I didn't want to think about it now that I could see him again....
It was Sunday morning and I decided to text Drew, Aaron, and Kurt. [Shane]: Hey, guys. Since we haven't gotten together for a while and I miss you, how about doing breakfast or lunch? At least, that's what I told them. They didn't need to know the truth—Donovan was working and I needed to distract myself. It wasn't until I stepped out of the shower tha...
August 27, 1944 Paul jerked and shuddered at the sound of the salvo of gunfire that penetrated through to his cell from across the courtyard. He looked around the small cell. Stone floor, walls, and ceiling. a cot suspended down from chains on the wall at one side. A drain in the corner with a chamber pot next to it. The Ritz it was not. This was anything...
+++++ Author's Note: This is a direct sequel to the previously published story "Stray Kitten." +++++ There's several distinct kinds of "exhausted," and we have all experienced several. There's "I just spent the last 18 hours on planes" exhausted, "I just finished cramming for an exam tomorrow" exhausted, and others, but for my money there's nothing qui...
