3:49am. The time on the digital clock her mother insisted must be on every nightstand in the house. Staring at the same small, almost unperceivable crack in the ceiling that she stared at her entire childhood when something was troubling her. At 46 years old, the things that troubled her as a child and young adult seem so trivial now. Maxine now stared at th...
The one thing that I really like about the holidays is that old friends come back home to visit family. I've run into several old school friends the past couple of Christmases. Just last week I ran into my old boyfriend Kenny at the mall. I hadn't seen him since I left for college, and I must say that he aged really well. "Oh my God! Sue is that you?" he c...
Note: The song lyrics are not mine. I've only quoted them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It took them a few minutes to make the short drive to the nearby hotel where the reception would be held. When Cynthia's mother had met them while leaving the church, she'd introduced him to a few of their relatives and friends. He had noticed a lot of Cynthia's folks feeling ill-at...
It was a gorgeous Friday afternoon, and Sherri was busy packing for the weekend. The "Pats" were headed up the canyons for a night of camping and an all day hike the next morning. The "Pats" included Sherri, Kevin, Lisa, Micah, and Jen. They all lived on one cul-de-sac in Orange County, Patrick Street, and had been friends as long as Sherri could remember. T...

Edited by willyb220 ------- There are no actual sex acts in this story. ------- I am touched that tranceh liked my work so much he saved 55 of my stories, and forwarded them to me and Chilley!

This story is a prequel to the story 'Our Song' I published last year. I certainly recommend reading 'Our Song' either before or after reading this story, as it can add context on the characters and events depicted here, but this is by no means not necessary to understanding, and hopefully enjoying this story as it is meant to stand on its own merit. All th...
As one of the few male teachers in St Matilda's Academy for Young Ladies I considered myself fortunate to have a position in such a prestigious school aged only 30. I teach a final year class of 18 to nearly 19 year old girls, all seeming to want to outdo each other in showing off their wares in the shortest skirts and the tightest, thinnest blouses school r...
Friday at school is my short day. I had designed it pretty much that way, so that I could start the weekend early. Spring training didn't start until next month, and I had done weights yesterday, so I wouldn't be due in the gym until tomorrow.
