2. Unexpected --- Harry sat in his car. He'd parked it outside her building. Drumming his fingers on the steering wheel, he stared straight ahead as he considered his situation. A week had passed since their blind date. He'd texted her the very next day in the afternoon to tell her how much he'd enjoyed it. She hadn't replied. He'd tried not to let it get...
I have fond memories of summer barbecues at the home of Ron and Jill Harrington. My parents, Alice and Bill Barker, were friends of the Harringtons. There were always many guests at the barbecues. Ron loved giving parties and being the center of attention. I spent most of my time in the swimming pool with couple of kids of my age. Ron Harrington is Jill's h...
= = = = = = = = = = = = Chapter 8 - The Party = = = = = = = = = = = = The Masters boys were dressed, but looked a little sheepish. The Johnson sisters were beaming, their faces a little flushed. Must've been a pretty good time on the knife case, I presumed. "So what's the deal?" I wanted to pack up and get out of here. "Well," said Lizzie, the eldest. "...
Drummer Boy: Bat Out of Hell II: Back to Hell Hi again, folks, Lady D here! This section took a lot longer to finish than I expected. Like all the other parts, I wrote it over a year ago in February. When I got around to it this January, I didn't like it, so I threw it in the swamp, and rewrote it. That version sucked less, but it still sucked, so I thre...
For the six or seven readers out there who've been clamoring for a story spun off from A Quickie in the Commodore's Office, here's a cautionary tale featuring Cameron, future guitarist for the Kabuki Hikers, and his adventures just after he graduated from high school. It's weird writing a first-person narrator who's kind of an asshole, but I tried. Enjoy!...
A little guy's journey through life takes some unusual twists and turns. (Comments are welcomed - Be kind this was my first attempt at writing) Prolog Awareness came slowly. The darkness dissipated and was replaced by the brightness of the overhead lights. Where was I? I turned my head sidewise, realizing I was on my back in the middle of a boxing ring....
(Okay, I'm gonna try and make everyone happy with this chapter. Britney is going to make Ryley think twice about Mandy. I hope you enjoy her return as well as Jessica Simpson later in the story. I hope you continue to read, because I have revealed more of Ryley's character. I also hope that you guys vote and send me your feedback. The chapter with Mandy was...
Author's note: This story does not contain any actual sex, although it does have innuendo and the prospect of sex is alluded to often. So if raw sex what the reader is looking for, then perhaps some of my other stories would be a better choice. Everyone in the story is over 18 years old. Any similarity to persons living or dead is purely coincidental. This...
8. Surprise —— Charley blew her hair out her face in frustration as she threw her pen across the room. She had only exchanged a handful of texts with Harry in the two weeks that had passed since the whirlwind trip to London. All the texts she had received had indicated he was writing and he would try to see her soon. He hadn't called her, and she hadn't...
Two years passed since Jim and Jane had last spoken. He ended their final long distance telephone conversation, tears sliding out of both their eyes, with a shaky "Goodbye." They had resolved that distance was making their relationship expensive. Two hour conversations over thousands of miles. And it impeded their freedom. They were young and needed to be bo...
