Over the next few days, I found myself thinking more and more about Cathy out there painting looking at all the naked guys. I tried not to let it distract me at work, but it was tough. For her part, Cathy hardly ever brought up the subject herself. It was me and my curiosity that was to blame. And, her response to my questions typically renewed my sense of e...
It started off being longer but I thought the story also a good fit for the 750 word format so here it is cut down a little. * Mary and Ciara thought they got a good deal when Fred took the third slot in their shared student house. His presence made them feel safer, he seemed to have an endless supply of energy for chopping wood for the log burner and he s...
To Whom It May Concern: Thanks for the critiques, I hope you find this sequel most enjoyable. -*-*-*- Using every ounce of control he had, Conlan raised his hands up, putting them on Liz's upper arms and very, very gently pulled her away from his chest. He lifted her up as if she weighed nothing more than a feather on the wind and then started walking to...
I sat at a table with my old friends, sipping a cocktail and talking about the last ten years of our lives. Some of us had kept close and others had drifted away, but here we found each other and it was like we had never left. Our ten-year high school reunion brought us back to the days of senior year - except now most of us had spouses and excellent jobs....
Chapter 11: A Gift From Stony. ***Thursday, August 15, 2304*** On Thursday afternoon Alicia texted that she would be in late Friday night, but not to pick her up since the committee had arranged for a limo service.

All physical evidence of Liz's indiscretion had disappeared, but her mental guilt was eating her alive. She still found it hard to believe how she had been tricked and lied to. How co...
After Ashley had sex with Rod, there was no mystery. She came out after Rod left and gently knocked on my door. I got up and let her in. "You're not mad at me, are you?" "No, Ashley. Matter of fact I could not help but hear the commotion in there. Was it good? It sounded just like you described. Did you fuck him into submission?" She laughed. "Well, it wa...
Chapter 16 -- Return of the Queen The next morning I made it to the office ahead of everyone, except Leslie. I stopped by her office on the way to my own. She was reviewing a document on her desk when I stepped into her doorway. "That was one killer lesson plan you had last night," I joked. "It's never dull around here," she laughed. I didn't stay around...
Lisa was a pretty, dark haired, brown-eyed girl that he met while working at the Whole Foods Store before he quit that job to contemplate his unemployment options during the warm weather and the bright, sunny summer days while lazing around his backyard pool. As nice and down to earth, as she was beautiful and sexy, never had he known anyone like her. She wa...
As ever, my heartfelt thanks to Estragon, whose vorpal blade went snicker snack, leaving for dead homophones and typos galore. He also chose the title. "And now lot forty seven. A free standing mirror in a carved oak frame depicting seven cavorting nymphs. What am I bid? Do I hear fifty pounds? Come along, this is a fine piece, OK, let's start at forty poun...
