It had already been a long day. It was the first day of my second semester. I was a senior this year, yup; I had half a year left to go of school! Well, at least until I started college. As I walked through the hallway I watched the freshmen wandering aimlessly trying to find their classes and said hi to my friends as I passed them. I saw my little cousin Ju...
Note: If you've read my other stories, you may notice a recurrence of names. I like using my first and middle names in my stories. That away I really get a feel for my writing. Like the others this is a fictional story. * * * * * My name is Jerry; I'm 25 and married. I'm about 6' 2" tall and weigh just under a buck and two quarters, so I am pretty skinny...
I think I may have just signed my name 500 times today. My hand is sore. The Alabama heat is atrocious. I thought I knew heat, from living in Manitoba. But this was nothing compared to our hottest days. The book store I was in was a quaint little establishment. The people who came in to get me to sign the book they bought, which I wrote, were absolutely ama...
Chen Li was anxious as she entered the pub. She didn't know why she felt that way-she wasn't planning on doing anything other than having a couple of drinks to unwind while waiting for her husband, Steve. She was tired. It had been a long day at the office. She worked for a mail order catalog company that had fallen on hard times due to competition from the...
I remember shopping for school clothing; we were so excited. We thought that we would be in different classes, but Mom arranged it so we would have the same kindergarten teacher. I don't remember much of the accident. I remember screaming and pain and blood; blood everywhere, on everything, on me. But none of it was mine. It was all Cheryl's. They say that s...
A man struggles with his obsession to make love to another man and finds a hermaphrodite, unknowingly. Frankie pulled into the first motel he found, it was late and he had been driving all day. After checking in, he went to the room and tossed his suitcase on the desk and flopped on the bed. Frankie was on the road for one reason, he just left his wife of e...
Friday evening. I had arranged to go out with the boys for a few drinks after work. Usually these outings, being few and far between, are anticipated greatly. This particular evening, however, while starting off well, was fading fast for me. It had been a long week at work, and my batteries were running low. This feeling was exacerbated by the martinis I was...
I must thank Techsan and my LadyCibelle for their proof reading and editing skills. But I must also add, as I can't leave a story alone, I could well added some cock-ups after they have seen it and before it gets posted. That should keep the GPs happy at least. * I don't know how long I sat there staring at that hotel. My mind was in a kind of daze. I had...
Chapter 1: From Darkness into Light Lenore pulled her 320Z to the side of the road and double-checked the address, 91281 Pacific Coast Hwy, Florence, OR. According to the GPS, it should be within 100 yards of her location, but there was nothing. No house, no driveway, no mailbox, nothing. She was about to give up and call the number she had been given for d...
I'm woken up by a light nudging. I crack open my eyes, and see that Peter is kneeling next to me. I sigh as I stretch and ask what he wants. "Could we go for a walk?" He asks, uncertainly. I frown as I sit up, rubbing sleep from my eyes as I yawn. "Huh?" I mumble, confused as to why he would wake me so early. The events that lead up to my impromptu flight...
