Ali was tired. It was understandable. She hadn't slept in a day and a half- she'd been busy- and she'd be taking a nap right now if her family hadn't dragged her to church. But they had, and she wasn't. She was home from school for a week and felt it prudent to do what they said until she was once again a safe distance away. She squirmed in her chair and t...
When the universe sends you the person of your dreams, there's nothing you can do but hold on for the ride of a lifetime. There's no way to plan for it, there's no way to calculate how things should progress; you just have to be present in each moment to receive the gifts you deserve. Little did Marcus and Karen understand how perfectly suited they were for...
I'm still quivering from a few moments ago, still feeling vulnerable and hot and sated, all at once. I want to laugh and cry and scream and sleep, but mostly, I want to feel more of what you can do to me. You pull yourself up on the worktable next to me and tell me to lay back again. "Spread your legs like I told you." I do, remembering to bend my knees...
The Holidays quickly passed and I settled into the routine of winter semester. I was carrying a fairly light load of classes - 3 morning classes and a one o'clock with a couple of labs on alternate days. Kathy was heavy into developing her knowledge and skills of Bridge. Frank was still traveling a lot on his job. Kathy practically insisted on not sleeping a...
By the time her knock fell upon my door, I had almost forgotten the model was coming. I am so easily distracted these days. I had retrieved the clay from the back closet and cut off an adequate piece, but then I realized the paintbrushes were still soaking and didn't want them to get soft, so I attended to them. Then there was a loud crash outside the window...
I had a rough time last week and I didn't really get much out of it... but... I can't deny it was a thrill. When Thursday came around again I felt myself hurry to finish up my work and just seemed to get ready on autopilot. I parked my car at Sydenham station a few blocks from the side ally to the bus depot and hid my keys behind the front bumper before I...
You’re having difficulty sleeping and it’s not just because it’s a warm night. The main problem is that you can’t stop thinking about John, and the fact that he’s crashing in the guest room, just a short distance down the hallway. You think about your boyfriend’s friend a lot. Actually, ‘thinking’ doesn’t describe it properly. ‘Fantasizing’ is more accurate....
Lisa was stressed out. Two hours of walking through this squalid abbey. It felt like it would never stop. There were way better things a 19 year old girl could do on a Saturday afternoon. She could hang around with her friends. Her real friends, not these bitches from here religion class and actually have fun. But instead they had to visit this abbey close t...
Colleen had been anticipating her date at the sculpture gardens all week. She'd met Frank online a few months back and had discovered over time that they had a remarkable number of things in common. Today was to be their very first meeting in person. She put the finishing touches on her make up; shading above the eyes with a shimmering green to bring out the...
Lisa returned to the lounge, sat down on the sofa and crossed her legs. She felt the power of someone who was in complete control. Jess and Tom were her prisoners and totally at her mercy. She'd never had a prisoner before. Her younger sister and boyfriend were desperately craning their heads to watch her every movement, their eyes searching for the smallest...
