Chapter Five – Girls Night In Dian Nguyen and Cherise Aimes were not happy campers. Cherise had planned a night out dancing at the Palais Nightclub she and her on-again, off-again boyfriend Tim, had frequented. She'd done herself up real nice, short mini, heels, sexy sparkling top, the make up and the hair just so. The night prior, Dian had asked if she c...
It was late when they came home from the wedding, and he had been driving half-asleep for hours. The moon was up, bathing the front lawn of the bed-and-breakfast with light, and he spent a moment simply taking it all in before he woke the sleeping girl in the seat beside him. They had to sneak in; everyone else was long since gone to bed. Luckily, they had...
She heard a car roar past outside, was it him? As she stepped up and headed towards the bay window it appeared not, the noise just whispered away. She was waiting, still. As she turned back around she glanced at the clock on the wall before making her way back to the long leather settee which she had perched herself upon earlier, anticipating his return. It...
As the first month draws to a close I realize that I have not heard a thing from my brother. I half expected him to come to my rescue when he realized that I had not come home that first night. I guess I was hoping against hope. For the most part I cannot complain about my treatment here. William has been courtesy itself towards me. Since that first night he...
Jack yawned as he stood in his black clerical robe in front of the last temple in the quaint little village, waiting for the priest to lock up and go home. Yet another year had passed him by as his stature continued to grow with his church for being the most successful force behind the church's expansion. He had spread the message of the almighty to thousand...
cowritten by Skibum The Arctic sun shone down on the North Pole as Linda Danvers, known to the world as Supergirl, sulked alone in her private room in Superman's Fortress of Solitude. A couple of empty quart containers of Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey and a half tube of Clearasil littered her otherwise pristine surroundings. A few shards of broken ice on th...
All I could hear around me were the screams of other souls that had damned themselves to this inferno of pain. I would slump down against the chains that had bound my wrists to this wall as my entrails poured out of me. The pain would be visited upon me viciously each and every time that I had healed the injury. My torturers knew what my weakness was…. "Com...
The following morning, Tuesday, a little after ten o'clock Tom Taylor entered my office and took a seat. "I just had a call from Sarah." He said, "She has been talking with Missy Rutledge! Missy told her all about last night and also told her that she had you lined up with Betty Hampton! You know what? You're the luckiest bastard I know!" I smiled and asked,...
I will never forget the summer that my eighteen-year-old neighbor prepared for college. My wife and I moved to the neighborhood about four years ago and quickly became friends with the neighbors next door. They consisted of a single mom with four kids (three were teenagers). The kids got along well even though they came from a broken home. The kids attached...
I must admit that Ginger's fears about her husband had given me a little trepidation as well. I wasn't worried that Eric and Michelle would leave us stranded, but what if Eric was so enamored with Michelle that he was only interested in her. I had confidence in Michelle, but Eric had never been in this situation with another woman before. Plus, the fact that...
