Introduction I remember reading somewhere that girls liked to wear miniskirts for the sense of freedom they give. What a crock of shit that is! Ever since I knew I was a 'babe' - and I'm not fond of that handle - at a very early age, I began to enjoy showing what I had to offer. But I've had to wait until I'd finished school, rolling up the waistband of my...
Author's note, none of the characters are below the age of consent. *** Here I was staring into a full-length mirror, seeing myself glowing in my wedding dress.

When they arrived, Chase introduced Elizabeth to the producers and sound mixers as his "friend," and she smiled and greeted everyone cordially. Chase quickly got to work, discussing the song with these men. She noticed how d...
Tyrone sat in his corner office and stared blankly at the trees in the park just across Rosemark Avenue. He hardly even noticed their many colors, brought on by the cool fall weather. As often happened these days, his mind was drifting. And as usual, it was drifting back to Diane and the wonderful night of lust they had shared. Although two full months had p...
