ACT ONE: PARTY PREP "If the item is defective, you can return it for a full refund, but no, you cannot return it if it's simply too big. I'm sure you can understand why." This was the saleswoman's reply to the question I had been instructed to ask about an item Jude and Becky had assigned me to buy. "I doubt that will be a problem though," the clerk, Felic...
Now call me a big kid if you want but I love Harry Potter. The films I mean. And there is no better place to watch these films than on the big screen. But unfortunately for me my boyfriend disagrees. Having dragged his miserable arse to the previous six films I was having great difficulty in getting him to the seventh. "Why can't you get one of your friends...
~~~ This was not smart. But it was either this or find myself stranded on the side of the highway, halfway to Chicago. You'd think a once leading pharmaceutical liaison would be able to afford a new car, but that's simply not in the budget right now. Not if I ever plan to buy a house. So, my bright idea? Park my almost extinct, Dodge Neon in the lot of the...
This is the conclusion of my Average Joe series. Thank you to all who followed it through. A special 'Thank You' to WanderingScot for taking the time to edit this story for me. Chapter 7: The conclusion When I last left off I had Ariel lying on my bed naked. To me she was the most beautiful girl in the world and I told her so, "I feel funny lying here n...
Sorry about the delay in posting a new chapter on this story. Now that the edits have slowed down, I should have more time to devote to both this story and Nisey's Awakening. As always all feedback is welcome. * Gabriel held the girl's spirit to him. He could tell by touch alone she was older than he and weary both in body and soul from years of abuse.Perh...
"I'll take a Bourbon. Straight." The request was a smooth baritone that promised utter delight. "Coming right u..." the cocoa toned beauty broke off as she ogled the gorgeous specimen of a man at her bar. His attention shifted to the dance floor, where women with long legs, generous hips and tits were gyrating on display. Thank god he didn't notice her stan...
Harry looked at the number again on his mobile phone. It was definitely Saskia's number filed under her name. "Where did you get that number?" he asked. "I never gave you any numbers, not even mine?" "A phone was delivered to the apartment this morning. It had a number on it, so I called." Helen explained. "It came by parcel post." She looked at the package...
Emily walked around school in a sort of love-struck trance, with an awkward look on her face. One Angela, her closest friend, had never seen. Angela simply observed as Emily seemed to close her eyes and smile at irregular intervals, and stumble over her own feet. When Emily nearly tripped into a glass door, she decided to address it. She grabbed Emily by the...
You never know, stranger things have happened. Bob parked his car to the side of the road in the middle of the bridge and at the highest point, got out, walked to the rail and looked down. It was cold, bone chilling, but he didn't care. He was too despondent to notice the cold. Just as Jimmy Stewart did, when he played George Bailey in the movie, It's A Won...
April 13, 2008 I'm running out the door. There's blood on my hands. There's blood all over me, and I'm borderline panicked, and I'm sprinting like a madman down the halls of a run down apartment, my heart tearing in my chest, praying to god I can get out before she does. One Hour Earlier 8:00 PM. South Central Los Angeles. I'm driving in my car, going to...
