Ms. April Coate had always considered herself an educator. Even before she considered a career in teaching, she was teaching her younger brother how to fix his broken toys; the neighbor how to trim his bushes correctly; her parents on how to drive to their destinations quicker. Of course, not every adult loves to be educated by a young child. This frustrated...
It all began in October of 1998. Keith was working a temp job at a warehouse that was running out at the end of the month. A bunch of the guys would go out to Hooters after work on Fridays, almost like clockwork, and Keith usually went with them. He'd go with Neil and Alan to the bar next door, that had pool tables, cheaper beer, and better wings. Two of th...
Argus looked at the guests and raised his hands, motioning for them to calm themselves. He could see they were still upset over what he had just told them. "Okay, okay, ye's can all hang me up and flog me fer telling such a horrid thing as that and breaking my promise, but noo ye's know why things had tae change. Like I said, yer glad they things don'ne ha...
Thank you Tigersman for editing this chapter. This chapter and 2 and 3 have been revised and edited so all my mistakes are now covered up. - The bar was packed as usual on a Saturday night. It was the place to be, whether on a date, looking to make new friends, or just unwind after a long week. The Brownstead Brewery always felt like a welcome to place to...
Three Tequila's POV Orlando Steel Brotherhood Clubhouse Tax time was my least favorite time of the year. The Orlando Steel Brotherhood Chapter is a 501(c)7 social club for tax purposes. As a non-profit, we didn't have to pay Federal or State taxes as long as we stayed within the lines of our tax classification. Most of the requirements were straightfor...
Thank you Andi for proofreading and editing this part. ***** The team had three weeks to be ready to pass their OCFT, Obstacle Course Field Training. Keith had gotten to know these agents. Yes, they did not look fit, nor did they seem athletic at all, but he knew they would give one hundred ten percent, and that was all he asked. Christy worked with them i...
Thank you everyone for all the awesome comments and praise. While the purpose of this story isn't to educate people about Asperger's Syndrome, needless to say I have to talk about it so you, as the reader, understand why Keith behaves and thinks the way he does. In the end I want to write a story with characters that are real, relatable, and you want me to...
When her marriage fell apart Donna moved back to her grandmother's seaside cottage. Charles was making staying in the city too difficult, practically stalking her, and the cottage was one of the few things he couldn't touch in their settlement, since it was part of a larger trust. In the 1920's a group of artists had pooled their money together and bought a...
1) I was excited. I was just about to have sex for the first time in more than a month. I was having trouble finding lovers. This new man, Gary, was older than me. He had a paunch but it wasn't that bad. He was pretty good looking for 50. I was 42 and better than average looking but somehow all of my prospects had disappeared. Gary was the first new man to...
First of all thank you everyone for participating in this incredible journey with me. I know you've all waited patiently and here it is, chapter 19 and the last chapter of Is Love All or Nothing? I've tried my best to tie up all loose knots, give answers to questions that I am willing to answer, and give a happy ending. Again thank you Tigersman for all the...
