The autumn morning light was shining through the blinds of our bedroom. Lying alongside me was my lovely wife of 22 years. I watched as she continued to sleep, her chest softly rising and falling. I gazed upon her with love and awe. I have always considered my self very lucky to have won such an incredibly beautiful and devoted woman, not to mention one so s...
"I decided something," my wife said, reaching across the table to take my hand. A beginning like that always sets off alarms in my head. This time turned out to be different, though. "If you want, you can ask Melinda if she wants to have a threesome with us." I was dumbfounded. Speechless. Melinda had been my friend before I met Sandy. Then she was our frie...
A good marriage requires stability, security and honesty. The wife said so, it must be so. With that in mind I set out to be the best husband I could be from the beginning. I joined up and after surviving Uncle Sam's boys club, I came away with the ability to provide a stable and secure future for our budding family. Although, I was away more than home, I p...
It was depressing working in a Victoria's Secret, closing in on Valentine's Day, especially if you were in between, well in between, boyfriends. The weeks leading up to Valentine's Day were bad enough, but the few days before, and even the day of, were the worst. Men, often handsome, uninformed men, came prancing into the store seeking advice on what to buy...
A while back after I had gotten divorced money got a bit tight because of child support, legal bills and other things. I decided that I needed a roommate. I was renting an apartment in Boston's Back Bay which is rather pricey. Even then, over ten years ago, my monthly rent was $2400 and that didn't include a damn thing. So I went to a roommate broker and adv...
"Honestly," I said to the man who had stopped me after I left the drug store, and as I looked around the parking lot of the strip mall I was grateful that at least there weren't many people around to witness this new low in a life that had been spiraling downward for a few months. "I don't know what I was thinking. It was a senior moment or something." "How...
It had been a slow night at the club. As a cocktail waitress I depended heavily on the tips I made to pay my share of the rent for the small townhouse where I lived with my sister. I am twenty-five years old and do a little modeling for a photographer friend of mine in addition to hustling drinks. I am average height for a girl with a good well-toned body. W...
Congratulations Mr. Farlow had set up living arrangements for me with a sweet widow in her eighties. Miss Georgia Ellis had a lovely antebellum home down on South Front St., and lived on her own, except for innumerable cats. There were living quarters on the second floor of the old detached kitchen where she put me up, and I, in return, did minor repairs, p...
When they arrived back at the lodge, it was already dark. The sun's afterglow rent a streak across the horizon, illuminating the undersides of clouds and silhouetting the mountains in brushstrokes of blood red, autumn orange, copper and gold. They put their cross-country skis in the rack outside the inn's door. The soft glow from the lantern lights illuminat...
DONNA This is a continuation of the story about Jenny... I go to work, and, by five, I am back home... Something made me jump out one tram stop earlier, needing to take a stroll... I arrive in front of my block of flats, when I sense that someone is staring at me. I look into that direction, and see a pair of dark green eyes watching me... Truth is tha...
