After drifting off to sleep with Beth snuggled up to me, I’m not quite sure how long I slept, but it had to be several hours because it was dark when I finally woke up. Breathing in a deep yawn and stretching, my limbs spread out over the bed and I noticed the absence of Beth’s warm body next to mine. Propping myself up on my elbow I looked around the room f...
Thank you, Kirk. * * * I've always been the possessive, controlling kind, and it had never bothered me before. Although my famous habit of starting fights over little things had already yielded me a handful of blow offs, in my head it seemed perfectly normal that a couple would argue out of jealousy almost every week. The problem was that I had never been...
This is a follow on from Just Friends Pt.02 but works just as well as a standalone story. ***** John and Callie's VW slowed to a stop beside the empty camping pitch. The wooden post donned a 4x6 index card with their names on it. John, relieved he'd navigated the maze of dirt roads correctly with Carrie at the wheel, was the first to emerge from the car an...

He rode into our valley in the late autumn of 1882. I was a mere lad then, barely tall enough to see over the old hay wagon. In the clear Colorado air, I could see his progress a mile away.

Two suitcases and carry-on bag in hand, I boarded the plane from the terminal and had assistance with putting my bag on the overhead area above my seat. Standing at five foot one, lifting anything over my head was a struggle. My travel clothes consisted of navy blue sweat pants and a varsity t-shirt from when I ran track in high school but I made sure to car...
There is no sex in this story. Sorry. * The confrontation The Yuengling Black and Tan was warm. It was ice cold when I sat down. She would be home soon. She was always at home when the kids got off of the school bus. I had the drapes drawn, because the sunlight coming through the living room window was depressing. Right now, today, the darkness felt war...
"In this particular minute to which I belong, I know I am alive. And I know I must fight to stay alive. That we must all fight for our lives. The warrior is strengthened by repeated efforts." Hakkon paused. Looked down at the body in his arms. "This man was a true hero to our people. He led one of the tribes with honor and dignity. He led the mission to the...
"Derrick?" Shelby questioned a few moments after Jan and Ellen had shut down to rest. "Is anything wrong Shelby?" Derrick asked after hearing the hesitation in Shelby's voice. "No, it's not so much as anything is wrong though I do have a question." Shelby again hesitantly said. "You know that you can ask me anything Shelby." Derrick informed her. "I was...
"I never thought I'd be a cougar. But there's a certain amount of attention you just can't ignore." Shelby and Brenda were day-drinking in the shaded part of the patio. The sun shone in shimmering reflection off the rippling blue pool. "Yeah. I know what you mean. But he's at least legal right?" "Just." "Well, so that's good. Me, I'm lucky I guess. I don'...
