Iris fidgeted and hid her face in her hands, giggling, " you don't have to do this, you know." "You said that already, " he turned and grinned his wolfish grin, bright white teeth poking out from the tawny fuzz of his goatee. Three months they had been together, and still the sight of that face smiling so cheekily turned her into a kid. She fidgeted a littl...
The early morning dew is on the grass all around us this early grey morning. We both find ourselves on the backyard patio sitting together on a nice strong wicker recliner that's form reminds me of the typical pool chairs women frequently lay in for either sun bathing or propped up to read a good romance novel while wearing a white sun hat. This wicker chair...
Images flashing away. It's all over and what happened I can't tell you. Light. Bright light. Why did I open my eyes? This hour is ungodly...what hour is it? Oh. Quarter after eleven is far too early to get up. Back to sleep. I walk into the living room in my deceptively small apartment. It's got so much space but it's all vertical space and no one sleeps...
At about 7 pm there is a knock at the door. I have just gotten off the toilet and am washing my hands. I dry them hastily and run to the door. Cautiously, I open it a crack and peek out. At first no one seems to be there. I open the door a bit more and then I see him, peering a little shyly back at me through the screen door. He is a thin man with precise fe...
When he announced that we were going to have a romantic getaway outside the city, I was excited. Work was really beginning to tax me, and a trip away would do great things for my stress. I tried to press him for more details, mostly for packing purposes, but he remained silent. My mind raced with the possibilities -- beach or mountain, relaxing or strenuous...
Elena stood in the middle of an unknown airport. She looked for a familiar face only seen on the screen of a computer. An e-mail attachment photo of a man with grey silver hair and tired eyes. She searched around and at the far end of an aisle she saw a man in black trouser and dark blue shirt. He was holding what seemed to be a dozen roses wrapped in plasti...
Stan quietly turned in his gear and clocked out as the first rays of dawn filtered through the dusty windows of the security office. The screen door slammed abruptly as he left with the same squeaky harshness he'd grown accustomed too over his short tenure, triggering a soul sourced sigh of relief. The brick two-story structure with mesh covered windows wher...
Dan was startled awake by the buzz of his front door. He pulled on some grey sweatpants and a t-shirt and darted downstairs. The mailman asked for a signature and handed him a large parcel. It was here! Dan had been waiting months for the new Playbox console to be released, with 4320p resolution and 6D features, he was dying to experience the new Instinct ga...
The bathroom door opened and she stepped out, draped in an azure blue sarong. Her pale skin was still wet and a towel coiled into a turban hid her mass of hair, now wet from the shower. He lay on the bed, idly watching her. He glanced at his watch. No time for sex unless it was really a quickie. She liked quickies. He didn't. Well, not much. He preferred to...
It had reached a fever pitch, Josh had entered a world he couldn't escape. Sadly, it was only when he watched his girlfriend bend over to plug in the vacuum that he began to understand how bad it was for him. Funny thing, if she had simply slipped the plug into the socket and started vacuuming it might not have come to his attention, but when she bent over,...
