Summer had finally arrived and Isabella was done with her second year of college. She had been working in a grocery store for sometime now and hated every minute of it. She hated having to deal with people on a regular basis. She was a moody girl, growing up a loner and distant to most people. She kept her black hair pushed to one side with the other side sh...
1 By all appearances, Sarah was a straight laced, white collar professional woman in her late twenties who took pride in her appearance and always dressed professionally and appropriately at her work. Her personal life often mirrored this exterior, but since her marriage to Alex two years earlier, she had found her usually shy and reserved personality relax...
I had been assigned to work in one of the Los Angeles slums and I didn't like it one little bit. After all, I was a college grad and could have been working for a major corporation. But no!! I just had to demonstrate my goody two shoes work ethic, so I went to work for the state. As I surveyed the broken down houses and the generally slummy conditions, I was...
I'd had a drink, not enough so that I didn't know what I was doing, or was incapable of doing what I was doing, but enough not to give a fuck about what I was doing!! I had drank enough to be belligerent about it, enough to not care about being caught and what she would say or do; and certainly enough to stand my ground and speak my mind. My hand moved rhy...
Two vodka-tonics and a scotch and soda. Finally some adult drinks. Maybe I'll make more than a quarter tip on this round. How many stupid sodas and juices can you pour in one shift? C'mon folks, you're on vacation here, live a little. All these first-timers are taking seats away from our regulars. A few more days, and our seasonal nightmare will be over for...
Beverly was sitting casually on the edge of the bed, feet on the floor, legs crossed at the ankles, supporting her upper body with one locked-elbow arm, an expression of apprehensive fascination on her face. Her lean angular body was exciting to me even as she was dressed in a tan shirtwaist closed with dark brown buttons from hem to collar. She commented th...
She would be home soon. He always liked that time. The anticipation of it brought a smile to the corners of his mouth. She would be climbing out of the super size SUV she insisted on driving. Looking very prim in her man-cut uniform. He always wondered what the men of Engine Company 304 would say if they knew what he knew. Under that blue cotton uniform was...
"We could meet once a year...would that work for you???" Those words turned over and over in my mind. It was the last thing she said before we parted a year ago, and now it was coming true. All year we had met on line, played our games and made love to each other over the net. Mad, passionate love. Living out our most outrageous fantasies from afar. How coul...
Marie and I had been shopping at Summer Grove liquor for a couple of years. We knew the staff pretty well. Heide is our usual lady at the store and her and Marie have become pretty friendly. When Marie had left me for a few months Heide would call and encourage me to hang in there with Marie. This warm Saturday morning we stop by and get our weeks worth of s...
My wife, Carrie, and I have known Geoff and Maggie since our early teens. Over 40 years. So it was not a surprise one wet morning to get a frantic call from Maggie who was having problems with a waste pipe. As Geoff was away and I was the only other plumber she knew she thought I might come and see if I could fix it. She said that she thought one of the old...
