KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! I rapped on the door. Hearing the hand on the other side of the door, fumbling with the lock, I took a deep breath and steeled myself for what was coming. "Justin!" I said a little more breathlessly than I meant as the door opened. "Danielle! You changed your mind!" he greeted me with surprise. "Come in, Please!" "I can't." I ans...
Dr. Tailor made quite a show when she announced that that our class would be held in the nude on National Nude Day! Well, I thought, ain't that just too special. In most parts of the country this would be pretty much a joke, basic silliness; but not in California. And certainly not in the heart of Northern California where the last vestiges of the hippy cult...
Thank you for the feedback and votes. Some kind comments have kept up my confidence in the writing in spite of some odd voting LOL. ***** "And so here we all are," Tashka said softly in the darkness. They were on top of the central tower: she and the Commanders. Pava and Tarra leant on the parapet looking down at the Sietter troops encamped around them....
Author's Note: When I first started lurking on Lit years ago there were certain types of LW stories that easily got my hackles up. One of the worst was the cheating wife on her deathbed confessing all her indiscretions to her husband to ease her conscience. Sometimes she'd tell him, but other times she was even more heartless and just wrote him a letter. Thi...
Chapter 2 "Women and their secrets" Copyright @ calibeachgirl All rights reserved, 2011 Love is a strange thing. It demands constant attention, care and devotion. It is hard to get, harder to keep and easy to wither and die. I was brought abruptly back to the present by the waitress asking if we wanted dessert. My beautiful, wonderful Belle made a preten...
Ann had tilted the rear view mirror to look at herself as she drove. It wasn't like the mirror was doing her much good from a driving standpoint anyway, since the back of the car was packed almost to the ceiling for our cross country trip. Still, it was odd when she kept glancing at the mirror like she was driving normally, knowing that each time her eyes ch...
Chapter 6: Lacie's First Morning Lacie woke to the sun gently shining on her face. Stretching luxuriously, Lacie gently groaned, feeling the soft sheets surround her shift as she moved her flexible young body. Ruffling her hair with one hand, Lacie sat up, her hand brushing something on her neck. Her fingers quickly traced the outline of her choker, making...
Freedom Summer, they called it, the summer when three civil rights workers were murdered by a mob of Ku Klux Klansmen. It was the summer after The Beatles splashed on to the American cultural scene and the summer of the '64 New York World's Fair. It was the summer when Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, and and the summer before Lyndon Johnson's...
I'm sitting at home on Saturday night, a fairly regular routine for me for the past 2 years. I'm an avid reader and sports enthusiast so there's seldom a time when I'm alone that I can't sufficiently fulfil my time without succumbing to boredom. However, keeping myself busy isn't quite the same as not being lonely. My divorce was final one and a half yea...
This is a Halloween contest story. Too many readers don't vote. Please vote. I need the support of your vote. Witches love full moons, especially during Halloween, when a wicked witch has her wicked way with a 40-year-old virgin. * Johnny sat at a bar minding his own business with his only friend, a cold beer, keeping him company. A regular, he came to A...
