NINE I woke on Thursday to the sound of my phone telling me I had a text message. It was from Geoff, reminding me that he was picking me up at 8.30. I glanced at the clock by the bed: 7.30. Now for a man in good physical shape, an hour is plenty to get washed, dressed and breakfasted. For me it was not so easy, and so I missed breakfast. Geoff took me to...
Andrew frowned into the darkness, why did she turn out my light? I wanted to read he thought, helpless in traction he was not able to do much for himself and had to rely on the nurses. Most of them were great but the regular night nurse was an absolute bitch. She was curt with him and never smiled at him or sat with him for a chat. He watched her nursing ev...
Carefully, I curled my fingers into a fist and watched as my thumbs twitched, but stayed stubbornly stuck out at right angles. I concentrated until I could feel the sweat burning my eyes and my thumbs felt as though they were on fire but nothing happened. Roy, the physiotherapist reached out and gently massaged the base, feeling the bunching of the muscle un...
As you may know, I don't generally go in for chapters or sequels. I tend to stick to one-off short stories. But several readers have written to me asking, very nicely, for another episode in the life of Isabella/TinkerBel. And so here it is ... My incarnation as TinkerBel was exciting; but it was also a little bit worrying. Exciting because ... well, it...
Lara had called Jack over to help with her back, it had been aching for the past few days and figured it'd be good to get a dr to look at it for free, and hopefully she'd be able to get a good dicking while he was there. In preparation for his arrival she'd worn the boobiest loose fitting dress she owned with her most glorious bra and had neglected to wear a...
I was on my way to the unit when I saw Donna, the girl I had left to look after Kevin. I pulled over and got out of my car to confront her. "What happened?" I asked as she came up to where I was standing, "you were supposed to get Kevin away from the flat." "I went to get my things," she replied, "I was only gone an hour and when I got back he was lying on...
This story is dedicated to C, who probably never expected to become a muse. * Surprised? Just a little. I could barely believe what stood before me. Clad a simple black dress, two straps which started between the neckline and the cleavage, and ended just above the knee. Lithe and statuesque was the only way of describing her that I could think of. Slightl...
Greg was appalled at what he'd done. He'd fallen hopelessly in love with Alice in the short time that he'd known her, and it had all been going so well. She'd trusted him, bared her soul to him, and now he'd lost her, just because he'd been too selfish and blind to be honest with her, too wrapped up in his own problems. He'd ruined everything, and now he was...
You get used to tackling a problem and suddenly another crops up and confounds the earlier one; that is what 47-year-old Bess was facing right then. Alba, the 24-year-old daughter of Bess, was a loner by nature, hardly spoke to anyone, a bit gawky, spectacled, buried herself in books and thought she was unattractive. Mother daughter relationship was also no...
My name is Caroline. I am slim with brown shoulder length hair and have been told that I am pretty. I have been happily married for seven years. For the last three months I have been working away from home, staying in a hotel every week Monday through Thursday and returning home for the weekends. As I traveled back from work to the hotel last Thursday, I s...
