...The house is a comfortable size, secluded from the beachfront by a long cobbled drive and a large, wooden gate, hiding the world within from that without. A small frontroom leading to a modern kitchen, reading room and lounge. The master bedroom sits above it all, lording the second floor with a balcony open to the sea air. Plain, austere almost. Minimali...
Speaking from my own experience, here are a few things to keep in mind if you find yourself in a geographically-challenged romance. 1. Know what you're getting yourselves into. Long-distance relationships are awful. Really, really awful. Don't make the mistake of romanticising what is happening. Don't imagine that you are somehow proving the depths of you...
She picked up the paring knife, the reflection of the light off the bright silver blade catching her eye. In front of her was a grape, a purple grape. She pushed the tip of the knife into the grape until it pierced the skin, juice trickling out through the gash. Slowly and assuredly, like a surgeon making an incision, she sliced the grape in half, the two ha...
New Undies Sunday was a pretty quiet day around the house. I was still feeling pretty embarrassed about what had happened and so I avoided Sharon just a bit. I ate breakfast later than she did to avoid bumping into her in the kitchen. We ate lunch together and then I crashed and watched some baseball on TV while she went and did her own thing around the hou...
Hi, Just wanted to give you a quick cute little update before drama start brewing ;) This story is not edited. I skim over it to make sure it is understandable and that's pretty much it.

There was only one boy that she had on her mind, and that was Daniel. One day, Aubrey was in...
Week 2 : raising the stakes/playing his trump card Day 1: In her sleep Cassie dreamt of being pursued by a large dark figure. She was not exactly scared, but apprehensive. In the dream she started to flee but the dark figure's arms seemed to extend and extend. At the same time she was running in soggy sand and seemed to make little progress. She saw the da...
Chapter 3: Mr. Harris James Harris had taught English at Henry Williams High School for years. He'd taught it to all grades and all skill levels, from basic sentence structure in remedial freshman English to reviews of the classics in his upper-level classes. But it was his senior study sessions that really got him through the year. Most of the 18-year-...
Let me preface this story by telling that this is true event. The names have been changed to protect the innocent and not so innocent. Also this is a long story.... I am a married male in his mid 40's and work as a law enforcement officer in the great Northwest Region of the United States. My patrol district is out in the rural area of our county and on sev...
Ever been in love with the school flirt? It sucks. This story is only partly true, and this is the first part. I intentionally left out character descriptions so you can use your imagination. I really hope it leaves you itching to read more. Please give me feedback, I'm not quite sure how to end it but any comments would be appreciated. * I met Cameron as...
