The call was from a lab partner to discuss some missed material from class that morning. Two minutes into the call, my cordless phone picked up an...
[Thanks again to angelic sounds for her wonderful editing!] * "Mr. Walker, you're back with us so soon. I'm glad. You seem to enjoy it here. Will you be dining alone?" "Yes, Doug. I will be alone today." Doug watched as Alex Walker looked left, right, then past him his shoulder and behind him towards the bar. "Are you looking for someone?" "No, well yes...
Mothers can be sneaky, untrustworthy creatures. I had very subtly insinuated that I was interested in buying mine something for Mother's Day and a suggestion of what she'd really like would be nice.

The day after I finally lose control and come, I find myself hoping tonight isn't one of the rare nights my owner doesn't come to me. The night before, I was afraid at first he would punish me for coming, but he didn't. Now I almost can't wait for him to return. I am sick with myself for wanting him, but can't help it. I have nothing else to look forward to!...
There are times I wish I were a child again. That place where blind innocence and unconditional trust of family and friends was the norm. No troubling thoughts or confusion of the mind. A beautiful state of ignorant bliss. But with that great desire to be a grown up and do all the things adults do, we run in haste to discard our childhood tranquility. And wi...

"Girls, I'd like to introduce you to our newest recruit," said the tall, male officer who was introducing me to the newest wing of the military, made to combat the ferocious Space Monsters.

They met online, innocently enough. Both were living quiet, introspective lives, mostly hidden away for the world's view.
