I opened my eyes and saw Anne lying on her side looking at me lovingly with a sweet smile on her face. "How long have you been awake?" "Long enough to get over feeling that yesterday was only a dream and convince myself that I'm the luckiest person in the world. I love you Carl. I love you so much that I feel like a little girl again; that everything is ne...
Thanks so much for all of the feedback so far. I really appreciate all of your votes as well. Now that I am writing a few stories here I understand better how important it is to vote. I know I released the first story a bit too soon and it was a bit too rough in places. But I was nervous that if I didn't post it when I did . . . it would never get uploaded...
Heart attacks are a pain in the ass. Well, not exactly, but still, they get in the way of things and I really didn't have time for one. No matter, a person doesn't get to choose, so I got a short stay in the hospital. They told me it wasn't really a heart attack though, "just" a blocked main artery. After installing a couple of those culverts they call ste...
Under Howard's tutelage, Holly had become a recognized leader on the Ohio University campus. As the dean of the school of education she had changed the department from one mired in tradition and on the borderline between inadequacy and nonexistence to one known by every teaching professional in the United States and most of the world. She had became known on...
4. The Bedroom The new couple, Derek and Abby, were both tired at the end of the party where they had met, stripped one another and made love while others watched. For both of them it was like a dream, doing things they had only fantasized about in the past. It had happened so fast that both of them were a bit disoriented - Derek had met the girl of his dre...
Beep... Beep... Beep... Beep... That was the sound I heard as I groggily awoke to consciousness. I was in an immense amount of agony; my body sore all over. The worst however, was the intense pounding in my head. I felt it was a chore for just my eyelids to crack open. Between the combination of the thin layer of gauze that was wrapped over my eyes an...
What a shit life. No husband, no children, just lost my job because the boss's wife found out about our affair. Ok, I know, I deserved everything I got... or lost, rather. Don't get me wrong, I know I only have myself to blame. It's just, you don't know what you have until you fuck everything up in the worst possible way. Things used to be perfect. I worke...
Sometimes even dark clouds have silver linings I broke my right arm while mountain biking with my wife Samantha. We were about two miles into a ride when my front tire slipped on a rock and I went over the handle bars. It happened so fast that nothing hurt at first, but I felt the snap as the bones near my elbow broke. "Holy shit, are you okay?" Samantha s...
I knew what I was going to find on the other side of that door, but I still didn't have the guts to open it. Sonja had just come into the kitchen saying that there was someone in the shed, and considering the strange phenomena that had been happening to me lately, the circumstances of this stranger's presence were obvious. But I knew I had to face this new t...
