Chapter 6: Sympathetic Sounds I got home and crashed on the couch for about four hours. It was nearly ten by the time I woke up and ordered a large take-out meal of Chinese food. I thought I might call Jill and see if she wanted to come over. The doorbell rang and I ran to the door in my bare feet, shirt un-tucked and hair sticking up from my nap. I ope...
It was the oldest hitchhiker I ever picked up. It was dark and stormy and no other opportunities had presented, so I collected it. It was pretty and blonde and a little aloof. A few miles down the road I pulled off. I held it and pressed the cloth against its face. Strangely, It didn't try to fight me. It's pretty blue eyes seemed sad as it went to sleep....
* * * Now Elric, I said to myself, you've trekked the width of a continent, seen countless sights of immeasurable complexity and exoticism, fought foes of a monstrous sort, but this very well be the most exotic being you've ever laid eyes upon. The being in question was, of course, a woman. But what a woman. Tall, at least my height, which is an impressive...
Chapter 2: Entropy and Sorrow's Kiss Alan Burnett listened to an oldies radio station, an AM station that had been around since a year longer than forever - and that had a play-list that seemed comfortably lost in the seventies. Steely Dan was still Reelin' In The Years, and the cop sat in the air conditioned Dodge Police Interceptor, his thumbs drumming aw...
Alice Connelly stood by Blue Lake. Well, it wasn't exactly blue. Years ago, some romantic saw the clear sky reflect off the water and named it Blue Sky Lake. Somewhere along the way "Sky" got dropped; no one knew why. Between the moment the name changed and Alice's presence, the U. S. government fought wars against the Fascists and the Reds, bought the land,...
This was a new type of writing for me, I hope you enjoy my little story. I know, still way, way over the top. No one under eighteen, any resemblance is insane. Is it a crazy story? Of course. Try to have a bit of fun with it. Stonecutter part 4 Life, Death and Love in the Moonlight. I was glad I had rented out the top floor penthouse suite, as it had a po...
I tossed and twisted until well after the sun came up, when at last Roxy came to get me. "Mornin' Susie honey! How's my favorite little naked slut? I was so tired I slept like a baby. How about you? The guys'll be here in a half hour--you'd better get cleaned up. Gosh--you look just awful." Thanks a lot, I thought, as she undid all the tape and pulled the...
*This is the final chapter of the story. If you haven't read the others, I recommend doing so as this is only here to complete the tale for those who are interested in the fate of the characters. There is no sex in this chapter but rather a consideration of the whole point in its composition and a response perhaps to previous comments. I hope you enjoy and,...
After that day, Fred found training is even more rigorous; every day, his body pushed to its limit. Fred remembered barely able to move, while he laid in his cabin after a long night. Life just seemed to go on, and before Fred had realized that three months had gone by. In those three months, it was clear that everything had changed. Fred remembered waking...
You know who you are. I’m so sorry. I love you. -C Last night was the best of my life. You pulled me out of misery with so few words, doing for me what days of moping could not. I lay just below the surface of the water, the warm fluid brushing against my eyelashes as I choked back tears. Depression had set in so long ago I couldn’t remember what it...
