Three months. It had been three months since Felicia and Bo had seen each other. Purposely, of course. Felicia had no intentions of taking their affair any further and Bo couldn't stand being around her knowing that he could never have her fully. So, they didn't reach out to each other. No phone calls. No emails. But Bo missed Felicia. He had parted ways wit...
Amanda examined herself in the mirror. How did she look? She had never been on a real date before – she'd been out with boys on what she thought were dates, but ended up being nothing more than movie outings with boys so young and unsure of themselves that they were too afraid to even make their move. Not that she was ever sure what she would do when that mo...
Kevin reached for the keycard when his mother handed it to him, and fought the urge to grin. Her guilt trip had been working. After a month of insisting that he had to go on one last family vacation, because he would be going off to college and they were never going to see him, he was ready to cave. If she'd waited until he got home that evening instead of...
Another one I wrote in one sitting, just now. Hope it passes muster. Feel free to let me know. ________________ Felicia McKenzie is the newest girl in the office, and in my opinion, not particularly needed. By new, she'd been with us at Drexler Trucking for six months. We were a small company and didn't have any attrition... yet. Felicia mostly managed the...
"It's not that kind of dinner," Mary Jane said, Felicia just having shown up at her door in a trenchcoat and not much else—though the 'not much else' seemed prohibitively expensive at first glance. "You said your roommates weren't home." Felicia stepped inside, her walk seemingly designed to make her coat flutter open. "And that they were gay." "Yes, and...
Felicia lay naked in bed, listening to the rain hit her building. He really wasn't coming. Peter was not her boyfriend anymore. She'd gone out and robbed a joint, but even that hadn't put a dint in her frustrations. Nor had spilling out her loot—all the cash money and one ornate scepter—onto her bed and lying upon it, momentarily using the scepter as a backs...
"Yeah, right!" Felicia guffawed into the phone as she chatted with her best friend, Cassie. She placed the lasagna noodles in the pan for dinner that night. "There is no way he's going to be interested now. We've been friends for over 2 years and he's been broken up with Summer for more than seven months. What on God's green earth makes you think Daniel is g...
In keeping with the historic theme of the guest house, the bathroom had no shower. Only a huge claw-foot bathtub. I hadn't had a bath since I was maybe four years old, but I was going to have to take one now. I figured out the drain, hoped that filling the tub halfway was about right, and fiddled with the spigots until the temperature seemed sort of warm, b...
"What do you think?" Felicia beams. She is excited, smiling even more than usual. I am surprised she is not at least a little nervous, given our plans, but she doesn't seem like it. And she seems to be very happy with her outfit, showing off and looking for my approval, knowing she will get it. "I think you look amazing. Just right for the occasion" I te...
With great care, Michael guided his car through the crowded parking lot. As expected for any school function, the place was a madhouse. Buses and cars were scattered throughout the place, with kids and their parents darting around recklessly. He had already dropped off his wife and kids, all he wanted now was to get out of here. They'd be going on an extende...
