This night is special, things are going to be different, and you can sense it in the back and forth banter during the day. This being the party season full of holidays and cheer, we have been invited to a couple of get-togethers with friends. Just because you want to meet the people I work with, you have wanted to attend the company Christmas Party. And I am...
It couldn't have really happened. Could it? Maybe it was just a dream, a twisted result of my uncontrollable desires. Man, my head is killing me. I definitely had way too much to drink last night. As I turn to see Bridgid blissfully sleeping beside me, there is no sign of anything out of the ordinary. I lie in bed and try to think through the fog of my hang-...
Jack was always a good kid, from the time he was a little boy I would babysit him while his parents went on their numerous vacations and weekend get-a-ways. I was an older woman, 43, with no kids of my own and recently divorced, so it wasn't like I had a full social calendar just yet. But Jack was no longer a little boy, he was 20 with the body of a 30 year...
This is a short story I wrote in response to some feedback I had got, enjoy! The word got around about a dress up party on the weekend at a girls' house whose parents were away for a few days, the theme wasn't any thing specific but as long as you got dress up you were allowed in. I thought of going as a character on a fighting game I have played and it did...
Joanne searched the room. Somewhere her date, Ray, was moving about, a drink in his hand, and on his mind... Joanne knew exactly. They'd met only a couple of weeks ago, but Joanne had first seen Ray a year ago exactly, at this house, a party for her cousin Iris. A birthday party for a then very pregnant Iris, who now had a beautiful little baby girl. Even t...
My name is Leslie. I am a 20 year old northern California girl who decided to stay in California for college. I go to school at one of the biggest sorority-fraternity schools in the country. We have so much fun surfing and hitting the bars. But this story is not about those types of parties. This story is about a different dare I say... more intimate type of...
To the literary purists - As with all my stories, I act in the role of narrator. This is a short story specifically designed to fit on one page. As such, there is no character development and no witty dialogue. I am not writing the next great novel. To everyone else, I hope you enjoy. ***** I don't know what finally triggered it. Was it my years of cajolin...
Chapter 1: A Memorial Day "Tara, are you up there? We are out of margarita mix." "Yes, Bob. I'll be down in a few minutes." As I try to catch my breath and wrap my mind around what just happened. I am a church going, 40-year-old married mother of one son. I work part time as a book keeper and really don't think of myself as anything but a plain Jane homeb...
She had no idea what she was getting into. She had been invited to her friend's bachelorette party weeks ago, but she hadn't read the invite very closely until now. Apparently the party was to take place at a male strip club. Now, Dani wasn't a prude, but she'd never been a strip club of any kind. She was 22 and not inexperienced, but she'd never felt the ne...
Looking back, it was amazing how quickly Barbara and Art managed to get an agreement done. In the end Barbara agreed a worse deal than Art originally offered but with a clause to put her on the Board of Directors with an increased percentage after two years if everything went well. Forward thinking, and yes things did go well and now, six months after the cl...
