** Almost no sex in this one - just tying up some loose ends ** From Chapter 03a... "Okay, with no other questions, we have a map to show how to get to the party site which is actually at my father's house. Because it is a private home, there may be parking problems if everyone drives individually. I have use of the vans until tomorrow morning or if peop...
-FROM "NIGHTWATCHES"- ... Sometimes, for those who make a living in the hours when you are asleep, there comes, towards the end of a watch or shift, an errant image from the depths of the past and their psyche. Images built on bits of memory or snatches of an old song - Jungian archetypes or " a bit of undigested gristle". One that comes to me is the image...
I felt the butterflies as I crested the old familiar hill and saw Elmwood spread out across the prairie. I was still several miles away from my exit on the interstate, but in this part of the country you can see a long way, especially from a high vantage point. For the most part, it was just as I had remembered it. There was the chemical plant on the south...
Some people thought I had treated Jake badly in the story: "The Best Birthday Present Ever!" And, perhaps I did. This is a totally different end to the story that came to me this morning. Jake and Julie Burrows had been together for 16 years, even though they were only in there late 20s. They'd met at Junior High and had quickly become an item. They wer...
You are James Lancer a pretty average 19 year old guy. You currently live at home with your parents while you complete your studies at the local college. As a keen astronomer and animal lover you ultimately have been labelled as a nerd throughout your whole school career, which unfortunately has done nothing to enhance your reputation with the ladies. It doe...
Captain John Logan started his career in Star Force as an eager 16 year old cadet. As he watched the Epsilon Space Station loom closer on the viewscreen of his shuttle, he thought back to that first day in the Academy and how he had dreamed of commanding a battlecruiser some day. The war with the Prajuk had ended and John had never seen real action. But he h...
"Ever have one of those lives? You know the kind. All of your life nobody ever notices you. Out of shape. Withdrawn due to ridicule. Really smart but yet get treated like an outcast for it. Ugly on the outside but drop dead gorgeous on the inside. I used to be that way. The crazy thing is when you are too intelligent the wrong people take notice. Right out o...
The thought of his lips on her clit sent a buzz through her belly and up her spine -- like sexual thoughts had intoxicated her mind when she was a teenager. But she was no longer a teenager. Professor Sherry looked in the mirror in the restroom before she walked back to her class. She didn't look 40. She definitely didn't feel 40. Her palms pushed down aga...
I had been a teacher for many years and had watched many pupils grow up from kids into young adults. Some looked cute and became not so cute as they added years. Some ugly badly behaved kids changed into gorgeous teenagers. Being married and a teacher put me way out of the picture in my head. I kept my distance from students even those 18 years or older, as...
I met my neighbors Stan and Sally a couple of years ago when I moved to the suburbs from the city after a rather nasty divorce. And over those couple of years, I got to know them very well - especially their daughter Christina, who was 16 at the time I moved in. When I first met her, I thought she was extremely cute, with a bubbly, effervescent personality t...
