My bag hits the floor, smacking down on the wooden tiles, and I close the door gently behind me. I sag, with my back sliding down the door, my hands behind me, until I'm crouched as though sitting on a chair. My eyes are closed, and I'm trying desperately to calm my breathing. "Hey." I start upright, my thudding heart adding to the confusion. "Oh. Hi honey...

MYA Danielle. It was always Danielle. Whenever I didn't want her to call, that's when she did and that, like most inopportune times before it, was another time I didn't need her calling. We broke up a while ago and that wasn't gonna change anytime soon so those early in the A.M. calls weren't needed. Then Angel wondered what the hell was going on. First nig...

Saturday Afternoon I was about to lead Angel into the bedroom so that she could unwrap her presents when my phone beeped with a text. I picked it up and looked at the screen. It was from Kendra: 'Is Angela there yet? K x' I smiled, 'It's Kendra. She wants to know if you arrived safely." Angel smiled at me, "Tell her I'm very safe and give her my love."...
The two girls stepped out of the shower, dripping wet, stark naked and laughing as they kissed each other tenderly. "Mmm, you know I'll have to pay you back for that now, right?" The slender blonde smiled mischievously as she kissed her partner deeply, their full lips pressing together. "I was counting on it, darling. Your payback is always wonderful." The...
I was standing behind the counter on a sunny Friday afternoon. A few customers sat at the bar as the coffee brewed slowly behind me. I was working with Angel, a short curvy Latino girl with dark eyes and golden skin. We worked together a lot at the coffee shop and hung out quite a few times before. We had made plans to hang out this weekend, just the usual s...
"I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus..." These familiar holiday lyrics, sung by a Caribbean reggae singer, sounded so amazing that I couldn't imagine listening to anything else at that moment. I decided to take a break from mingling and take it all in. High above myself and the other holiday partygoers, the atrium ceiling lit up with the shine of hundreds of ti...
I knew something was wrong right away. A vehicle was stopped on the docks, a 2½-ton truck with a load of fruits and desserts--chocolate éclairs, trays of fudge, hard-to-get fruit like watermelons and cantaloupes, a whole collection of goodies. Men were unloading it and carrying the stuff toward an ocean-going tug moored at the wharf. That boat was a US Nav...
Damn! That's the problem with driving a hybrid car. You get such good mileage you stop paying attention to the gas gauge. Now here we were, my wife Angel and I, out of gas and miles from nowhere on a desolate country road, somewhere outside of Ojai. There were no signs of civilization anywhere and it was getting dark. To make things worse, it was beginni...
