Ashlee motioned Penny to take a seat at the table again. "Sit down, Penny. I am 'appy to learn you complied with our wishes. We can now proceed and make all of us very successful!" Penny smiled and chuckled, genuinely happy at Ashlee's excitement; her hands waving around creating big circles to illustrate their future successes. "Thank you, Ashlee. I am so...
Phoenix left Dillon in the rental car as she walked slowly along the path through the center of the cemetery. Her breathing became heavy as she approached the headstone. Her chest tightened as panic flooded through her. This was it. This would make it real. Phoenix dropped to her knees beside the grave, her eyes unfocussed. Slowly, with deep breaths, she cam...
The events in this story happened a few years ago when I was 26 years old and living in Washington DC where I had moved to take up a new job. It was my first time living by myself. I had always had room-mates since finishing grad school a few years earlier. But now, partly because I felt I was ready to be my own man, and partly because I didn't want to go lo...
Another outing for characters featured in The Generation Game series. ***** My boss, who is also a good friend of mine, confirmed my promotion less than a month after I let him fuck my wife at the office Christmas party. Call me a cynic, but I suspect the two events were not entirely unrelated. Along with the new title and a spacious office came a PA, thi...
As trysts go, this particular one was off to a bad start. Already Rachael had whacked her shin on an amp, and there was a distinctly unpleasant odor emanating from the small bathroom. But as she looked forward at the man who was holding her hand, tugging her back to the dim bunk at the back, her stomach fluttered and her hormones soared. She hadn't intended...
My name is Natalie and this is a story about the summer my life changed. Having just turned eighteen I would be graduating from High School in a few weeks, and I desperately needed to find a job for the summer to help pay for classes at the local Community College I really wanted to attend in the fall. And so far I had not been having any success at all. M...
The events of the past few days, incredible as they might seem to readers, can only be described as serendipity; a huge slice of unbelievable luck - greater in my opinion than coming up on the lottery. It all began one summer's day in the supermarket car park, when my attention was drawn to woman in a white halter-neck summer dress crouching down inspectin...
All Rights Reserved (c) 2012 Paul Garland * "Does my bottom look big in this?" my wife said to me. It was the classic woman-to-man line, and she grinned at me as she said it, but she really was asking for my opinion. "Seriously, does it make me look fat?" The dress Nicola was wearing was cobalt blue, and fairly close-fitting. The skirt came to the knee bu...
This story begins the long-awaited continuation of my Road Trip series also posted on this website (see the end of 'Road Trip -- California' for a list of the chapters of that series, in order to be read). You need not read that series to enjoy this one, although I do make references to events and characters in that story to tie this story and that one toget...
East Coast Image's contribution to the annual Vanity Fair music issue gave us a sudden jump in photo offers. I liked to think it was the photos I took of Carrie Underwood. In a way, I was right. The photo I took of her outside of Tootsie's at daybreak was published in all of Vanity Fair's editions around the world, became the advertising photo for her tour,...
