I'd been in the same building before but this was different. I had been called to do some actual work for the volunteer bureau but had also been severely warned by my wife, the co-ordinator, that this client may be difficult. It was the same building with the same scruffy exterior door as before but this flat was completely different inside, it was as neat...
Quite frankly, I don't consider the whole thing to have been my fault. OK, I know that the parents I sit for have their rules and that I'm supposed to obey them. I understand that. It's just that sometimes situations arise when you have to bend the rules a little. That was all I intended – to bend one little rule just a teeny bit. It all centred on Bobby, m...
Molly smiled weakly at her friend on the dance floor. Brenda looked so happy, dancing with her boyfriend, that Molly could almost forget her depression. Molly picked up her glass and took another sip of the punch, running her eyes around the gym. The decorations looked cheap and shabby. Molly had no idea what anyone saw in these events. In truth, she had sp...
Liam went home on Friday night feeling empty. He thought he had felt lonely before he had Rachel. He felt worse now. He was more acutely aware of his dissatisfaction with his life than ever before. His marriage was over, though neither himself or his wife could admit it, he felt as though the mediocrity of it was killing him. Once his two sons had left home...
I drove like a mad man through the streets on our way to Café Botanique. Lynne looked petrified in the passenger seat as I wove in and out of traffic. I screeched to a stop outside of the building and Lynne hopped out as fast as she could. I stepped out of the car and she turned to look at me, her blue eyes narrowed in frustration. "You know, Kris, I can u...
Alrek awoke to the sounds of a man in orgasm. He reflexively reached for a pillow to cover his ears. There was no pillow to grab. It took him a moment to register that he was still underwater, and a few more moments to register what that meant. When he did, his eyes shot open. He felt weak. Agonizingly weak. Like he'd just lifted a hundred pounds above his...
Major Luco stormed through the halls of the base back towards the hangar. He followed the yellow line on the floor as it turned corners and led him to the heavy double doors. Now that Synne's awake, he thought, she'll answer for her actions. Breaking her own arms? Pleasuring herself on duty and in public? These were unforgivable in his eyes, no matter how mu...
12:00pm The vehicle drove for about 20 minutes to the address Chloe had given the two agents. She was exhausted and humiliated by all that had happened but when they pulled up and Jack fastened her cuffs to the wall of the van before leaving, she grabbed at his hand. She looked pitifully into his eyes and said "Please don't leave me?" Surprised at this rema...
The evening promised to be an exciting one. Two friends and myself had gotten tickets to see a blues-rock concert in this small but great venue, called the Showbox. It had been a long time since I had gone out with just the girls and we were all looking for some excitement. Before the doors even opened we had managed to down several drinks and were feeling r...
Thank God I had my notebook with me. I felt like this plane trip would never end. Got booted from coach because some creep needed the extra room for his rolls of disgusting fat. Not that I was complaining, I really hadn't wanted to spend the next 11 hours of the 12 hour flight sitting next to him anyway. But at least back there I could watch the people. Up...
