I woke up early, probably because the couch I was on did not lend itself well to comfortable sleeping. I lay there, staring at the ceiling as it slowly grew brighter with morning sunlight, wondering what was next for me. The day before, on that very couch, I had broken up with my girlfriend Marie. After around three years our relationship had been on the roc...
He helped me to my feet, and I wobbled unsteadily, blood flowing back into my legs. Jeremy looked uncomfortable, pants tight, drumming his fingers as he looked away. "I should probably get going..." Jeremy said into the quiet of the room. I pouted, but a glance at the clock had me reeling. It was nearly midnight. I tried to map out where the hours went, b...
Even at a nude law firm, ordinary life moves forward. I was confronted one morning by a very distressed Terry. Her daughter Mel, who was working for us that summer, had been accepted as an undergraduate at Yale and, obviously, wanted to go there. When Terry spoke to her ex-husband, Mel's father, about the cost of sending her to Yale, Terry's ex informed her...
The bar was crowded and smoky. The sound of the jazz band playing softly added to the ambiance of it. It was dim and quiet, with just a few older and very handsome men sitting at the bar. Kelly's clit tingled, the delicate skin sending out sharp little buzzes of desire as she surveyed the scene. It was perfect, not too many guys, and not too few. Only a co...
Janelle and Molly had become close friends in college although they had rather different life paths. Janelle had become an artist although her degree was in history. She was lucky in that her family was well off and able to help her while she worked her way up in the very chancy world of fine art. Now, eight years after graduation her painting were selling f...
To the readers: I hope you are having a happy holiday season! Moreover, I hope you aren't sick of Christmas yet because our characters are still stuck in Christmas week. It was my intention to have this whole day in their lives up days ago, but I couldn't manage that. I did get a very nice gift from you: The previous chapter got a red H! That was encouraging...
Picking up my kids from a play date is usually fucking torture. 15 minutes of collecting their stuff and peeling them away from their friends. The worst is the forced polite banter with the parents. Sometimes one of the mothers is cute. A little eye candy to sneak a look at, but, nothing more. I live in a very conservative community. Of course, affairs happ...
Yellow post-it notes were affixed at various places around the production offices of the Dr. Phil television show in Los Angeles. These simply said "Get Me More Weirdos." Doctor Philip McGraw was a man under a lot of pressure. Years ago the psychologist had used some appearances with Oprah Winfrey as leverage to start his own television advice show. Now he...
Newton woke up at 8:30 to the sound of light knocking on the wooden door of his first floor flat in Cape Town, South Africa. It was Sunday and a slight headache reminded him of the many rums and coke he had had the night before. He relished the cooling sea breeze blowing in from the lounge as he walked naked out of his bedroom into the little passage to th...
Roger dug in his heels, his brother was an ass. He certainly was not going to miss breakfast with his wife to enjoy HIS company. "Go! Make up with your brother. I've set up a breakfast appointment." Roger shook his head petulantly. Georgina ignored his ill-humor and she kissed him. "Make sure you are here by noon." His eyebrow raised. "If you are a good...
