There were two kids sitting on his rock. Two kids with fishing poles had claimed his territory. That was bad. Fishing was illegal on the pond, so was swimming. Sunbathing would have been okay, with a bathing suit on, but most of the sunbathers slipped over into the illegal category. The fishers and the skinny dippers tolerated each other, but they kept their...
"Baber don't be a baby, just do what he asked" Jasim groaned. "No! He might miss! Besides, we need to escape!" Baber complained. Aazim shook his head. "He won't miss, just hold it by the chain away from the door so the bullet doesn't ricochet off the wall." Aarif rolled his eyes. "Both of you be quiet. I can shoot the lock off without anyone's help. Ever...
At the age of 40 I was between jobs and living with a friend. Not a place I really cared to be at during this point of my life. It was frustrating to say the least. I got a lead on what seemed to be a pretty good job out of state and decided to take yet another chance. I packed my things and headed north on I-95. I had just crossed the Georgia/South Caroli...
I was driving late one night when I saw you walking along the side of the road. Long black hair trailing behind, you were wearing tight jeans and a loose shirt. As I passed, you turned your head to meet my eyes, a small smile on your face. Something made me pull over that I could not explain. You opened the door and climbed in, that knowing smile never leav...
Chapter 2. Jason. (July 2009.) The second experience I'm going to relate is a bit more up to date having occurred two and a half years ago. Jason was a hitchhiker I picked up one day while driving back from a distant town. He was heading for a friends house some 30 miles or so short of my own destination. Despite the age difference, Jason was in his ear...
Thank you for taking the time to delve into my mind, please feel free to offer any feedback, votes or general comments. I do appreciate your effort in doing this. I have other stories too, don't be shy, go on, have a read of those too. I hate this drive, the long stretches of straight road. I have been here a dozen times – the road from my family in Adela...
Ever make a deal with the devil? I have. They can be quite profitable if you know what you are doing. My name is Vlad Tepes, I am several hundred years old, and my name still instills fear. So, after having tricked the devil that intended to trick me into giving me wealth, smarts and eternal life as well as complete irresistability she is now my slave. Dam...
It was a hot and dusty summer day and I had been out on the road for several hours trying to get a ride to the next town. My bike had broken down and I was stranded in the middle of nowhere. I knew if I could get to the next town, I could get the part to fix the scooter and be on my way. There weren't many cars on the road that day and I was wondering if I...
She walked slowly along the side of Route 65, keeping her thin body just off the asphalt. The full moon gave her enough light to see by but she knew the way so well by now, she could walk it blind. Hunger gnawed at her. She needed to eat. It had been days. Finally, the lights of a car glimmered on the trees in front of her and she turned, extending her thum...
I was just fooling around when I met Rachel. I was out riding my Harley when I saw a gal standing alongside the road with her thumb out. Having hitched a good bit in my younger days, I usually picked up hitchers if I could. I rolled off the throttle and pulled to a stop next to her. "Where ya headed?" I asked. "Someplace down the road. Anywhere but here....
