“You got me drunk!” I heard from behind me.
We were already in the bedroom and Liz’s voice sounded so serious I turned to defend myself.
“You did!” she said, smiling at me. “You got me drunk and brought me to your bedroom and now you wanna fuck me. That was your plan all along.”
“You caught me,” I said as I loosened my tie. Liz waited until my eyes looked downward before pushing me backward. The bed caught me at the knees and I tumbled.
Liz giggled as she lifted the hem of her short dress and climbed on top of me.
“We have a real problem, Mister,” Liz told me.
“Oh?” I asked, thankful I had at least managed to remove my suit coat. My pants were already going to need dry cleaning because Liz was shifting her hips, leaving snail trails along the dark fabric above my zipper.
“A real problem,” Liz reiterated. Her eyes were glassy and her voice was thick. I finally took a moment to consider how much alcohol she had consumed in the past 10 hours. The three ladies had split two pitchers of daiquiris before we left. They had split two bottles of wine at the restaurant. Brian and Dom limited themselves to a single glass and I had only a glass and a half a refill. She had sipped from a flask that Skye had produced from her handbag on the way home. I wondered if Liz was right: There was more A than B in her BAC.
“What is the problem?” I asked.
“I love you too fucking much,” Liz said.
“I don’t see how that’s a problem,” I said, grinning at her.
“It is,” she said. “I want your cock out.”
She reached between her legs and started fumbling with my zipper. It stood no chance of working. She was sitting too close; my belt was still around my waist and my shirt tail was tucked into my pants.
I reached down to help but she pushed my hands away.
“My toy,” she said. “I want to unwrap it.”
“OK,” I said. “But it’s wrapped pretty well.”
Liz gave it another college try before abandoning her efforts.
“You do it,” she told me as she climbed off me.
I was pretty efficient if I do say so myself. Belt, pants, socks, shoes and underwear were off in a flash.
Liz’s hand had found my erection before my pants had even landed on the floor.
“That’s mine,” she said, using her left hand to stroke me. I took a brief moment to appreciate her apparent ambidexterity. She shifted her leg back across me, rubbed the head through her opening briefly and then sat back on it.
She let out a long sigh when I’d filled her.
Liz still wore her dress and made no effort to move or provide stimulation (for either of us).
She just closed her eyes and sat there. I wondered for a moment if she’d passed out.
After a few seconds she opened her bleary eyes and looked at me.
“I love you too fucking much,” she said again.
“I love you just as much,” I said. I ran my hands across her smooth thighs.
“You didn’t get bitchy after only two days without this inside you,” Liz told me. “I loved that you were so great about playing with me but we have to find a way to do this every day. I get a little crazy if I haven’t felt your dick in my pussy in a few hours. I think I’m addicted. It was like when I quit the pills. I was jonesing for your boner. Now I got my fix and I’m happy.”
“Can I take off your dress?” I asked.
“No,” Liz said. “I just needed this inside me for a minute. I ... I thought about crawling on your lap in the car. I thought about letting you do me in the restaurant bathroom. I just ... needed this.”
I could see that Liz was really upset.
“It’ll always be there for you,” I said, struggling to sit up. I put my arms around her and held her.
“The past two days ... even before I started ... I’ve been obsessing,” she said. “God, you must think I’m such a weirdo.”
“I think you’re my adorable girlfriend and I love you,” I said.
Liz kissed me softly on the lips. Sitting up had permitted me to put my hands on her curvy bottom and I slid my hands up to her lower back.
“Can I unzip your dress?” I asked.
Liz shook her head again but her look of distress was gone.
“I wanna wash my face,” she said. “I was gonna dance for you tonight.”
“Dance for me?” I asked.
“We drove past a titty bar,” Liz said, giggling slightly. “I was going to dance and shake my butt at you until you wanted me.”
“I always want you,” I said.
Liz bit her lip and put her forehead against mine.
“You always want me,” she repeated. “I like that. I like that you want me.”
“I like that I’ve got you,” I replied.
I saw her nose wrinkle and I pushed my chin forward until I could reach her lips.
“You got me and I got you,” she said.
“Yep,” I said.
“So you’re not gonna be all ‘yech’ if I want to put it inside me next time?” she asked.
“It’s yours,” I said. “You can do anything you want with it.”
“I love you so much,” Liz said. She kissed me again, first gently and then with more passion. Our lips didn’t part when she started to lift her hips upward. We made love for the first time in almost three days while we were dressed (at least partially).
Liz still had on every item she’d worn to the restaurant (including her heels). I had on my shirt – which was probably a good thing. By the time Liz reached orgasm, I think the sequins from her dress probably would have rubbed my chest raw.
Her face was red when she finally sat back and stopped her movements.
“Wow!” she said, smiling at me and blinking.
“Wow,” I repeated, mirroring her grin.
She started to giggle when she understood the incongruity of our clothing arrangements.
“Now can we get undressed?” I asked, smiling at her.
Liz shook her head and pulled herself off my erection. She slid back to the floor and then licked her juices off my soldier before gracefully standing. She didn’t unzip her dress or remove her heels.
She just folded the hem upward a little more, leaned against the nightstand and shook her ass at me. I noticed that the variety of swimwear had left interesting lines crisscrossing her tush.
“Get behind me and put it back in,” she instructed. “Quick and dirty once and then we’ll do it slow and soft the rest of the night.”
As with so many other things I really saw no drawbacks. Liz and I had done sexual things in a variety of ways. They always involved face-to-face contact (which I enjoyed very much). But the thought of her bent over like as she was had crossed my mind a few (hundred) times.
“I picked out these heels just for this,” she told me as I lined myself up. She obviously still had a grasp of mathematics because the height was almost perfect for what she had in mind.
Once I was inside of her, she stood up, wrapped her arm backward around my neck and pulled my lips to hers over her shoulder. I slipped a hand to one of her breasts (still covered by her dress) and the other between her parted thighs.
“One day, Baby, one night we’re just going to do the zipless thing,” she told me between grunts. “I’m just going to drag you away from everybody, drop my panties and just let you do me while everybody waits for us.”
I grew tired of battling my shirt tails so I finally removed my hands from Liz’s body and pulled the offending garment over my head.
Liz took the opportunity to put her hands back on the nightstand.
“Give it to me,” she urged. I started to push my hips forward with more urgency. Liz met me on every stroke by pushing backward. She lifted a foot up and put it on the bed to give me better access. At the same time she put her hand between her legs. She used her palm to stimulate herself and her fingertips to fondle my balls.
She was looking back over her shoulder at me with a lustful look so I upped the ante.
I put my own hand between our bodies to moisten my fingers and then traced it around her anus for a moment before slipping my thumb into that orifice.
Liz narrowed her eyes and let out a ragged breath.
“You always know what I want,” she said. “I was thinking ... a finger in my butt would be awesome. Then, bam, I get a finger in my butt. Do you want to put your dick there?”
“I missed being inside of you, too,” I replied. “My dick is right where it belongs.”
“You know it,” Liz said as she pushed backward with more force. “My pussy was made for your dick; my ass was made for your dick; my mouth was made for your dick. I was made to love you.”
I picked up the pace and wiggled my finger in Liz’s butt. She let out a moan and trapped my balls between her fingers to squeeze them gently.
I was trying my hardest to hold off until Liz got across but she wasn’t permitting me to slow down.
“Cum for me,” she said.
“I want you to cum first,” I said through gritted teeth.
“Not this time,” Liz told me. “I’ll get mine. Don’t you worry. I want to feel your cum inside of me. I love it when I feel that. It’s so hot; so sexy.”
Her voice was so sultry that I had no choice in the matter. I grunted and pushed as deeply in my lover as I could as I emptied myself into her. I took my hand off her hip and used it to pull her back to me. Our tongues found the other’s and my fingers joined hers on her tender button.
It took less than a minute before Liz began moaning in my mouth. My thumb was still barely in her back entrance and my dick was still lodged in her tunnel. I wished I had more hands because there were a lot other places I wanted to explore.
Liz let out a long squeal as her second crescendo washed across her body. She whimpered slightly when my now limp penis slid out but I held her tightly to me as she rode the wave.
The next morning even with the sunshade in the windshield once the sun was up it pushed light back into the sleeper. He was delighted when he woke up she was already awake, smiled up at him, said, "Hi" and them kissed him on the cheek. "Hi" he replied and put his hand on the back of her neck and pulled her down to him and kissed her. It was the strongest approach the truck driver had used and he didn't notice the change in her at first. Sammi felt his hand firmly on her neck pull...
Around midday they drove through a fast food restaurant right off the highway taking lunch to go. Once back on the road Joseph was able to get Sammi talking about dance recitals and gymnastics competitions she did when she was younger. He got her smiling and laughing sharing stories and that made him feel good. As the afternoon grew later the conversation slowed as he focussed on traffic and trying to make the delivery on time. The hours and then minutes ticked down as he got closer and...
She once again sat back down on the mattress and had to smile that Ol'Jack had only lifted his head watching her. She laid back down petting him and taking a deep breath. This was far from the only night that she couldn't stop thinking or dreaming about Roger raping her. It made her nauseous to think about the things he did that night and over the next few weeks until she built up the nerve to runaway. Before he moved in with her and her mom, Holly, her old real birth name, would never...
‘What the fuck!!’ Ray exclaimed, ‘Am I ever going to catch a break?’ The left rear tire on his SUV was again losing air from the slow leak and was noticeably flatter when he pulled into the truck stop diner to grab a bite than it was when he had set out in the morning. At least I’m at a truck stop with a garage, he thought. They should be able to either fix the leak or sell me a new tire. The past two months had been nothing but one kick in the ass after another for Ray Blanton. He had...

HumorRUNAWAY - Chapter 2 Tony and I kissed for ever, his hands caressing my body, my arms looped round his neck. My fingers were fascinated with the short spiky hair on the nape of his neck. One of his hands, now on the small of my back, pulled my body firmly against his. We were in contact from our lips through our bodies to our thighs. He had turned us slightly so that he was leaning back against the sea wall and one of his legs was pressed between mine. It was no surprise that I had...
RUNAWAY - Chapter 3 When I turned up at work the next morning Babs greeted me with a smile. "So," she asked, "are we looking at the cat that got the cream?" "I have no idea what you mean." I giggled. We took the conversation into the kitchen as there weren't any customers just yet. She made me tell her everything that had happened and what Tony had been like. I told her everything except about when we got back to his flat. And of course, I didn't mention anything to indicate...
I’m the kind of girl who sees herself as someone who doesn’t take shit from anyone. Unfortunately, my mom thought she should be able to dish out a full ration of crap and I should just sit there mute. Finally, the feces hit the fan and I’m on the street. I’ve got on a dress with a scandalously short skirt. The top is tight, and although my breasts are small, the tightness makes it look like I’m more stacked than I am. I’m not wearing panties, and I’m unconsciously heading for a rough part of...
Audrey's death was beautiful and she did not suffer. I'd held her too long, as Angela had warned me. We were not creatures for love, except that of the most selfish sort. We loved ourselves and tolerated others and I had grown fond of Audrey, adoring her in those last few days of her life. I would brush her hair, which had grown long over the passing months. I would brush it until it shone golden in the yellow light of our candles, and she sat still and smiling. I couldn't bring myself to...
"Hi. No, don't get up." I smiled and whispered and it was easy for me. "Sit down ... down..." There were two guards, big security men with uniforms and guns and radios. There were cameras too, recording us, and we didn't worry about them so much, not yet. I had something to do finally, because I was so good at this sort of thing and getting better all the time. I'd just walked in, through the metal detector and behind the desk as if joining them. The two men had only stared at me and...
Runaways Runaways By JensenDenmark 1. Holiday Amber met me at the park. We had left our High School separately so we could not be sighted. I rode my skateboard at the path toward the park. It was a shame that we had to keep it so secretly. Amber waited for me. She was 15 like me. ?Darling. I was afraid that your mother had picked you up.? ?No. I told her that I had to study extra for a project.? I kissed her. ?Lets go down to the creek, so we can have some undisturbed time.? The creek...
Runaways, 2 By: Malissa Madison All the way to the diner people kept introducing themselves to us. One young girl named Ginny asked if I was going to Miss Dotty's this year. "I don't know, is that a girls only school?" I asked. "Only the best on this planet," she said. "I beg to differ with you there, if her names Kitten she'll want to go to Miss Gina's Kitten Academy," said a girl named Rhoda. "Kitten Rhoda, is that any way to behave?" said a woman next to her. The look was...
This Story starts with guy who 35, but takes place when he's 25. The 2 girls are Jenifer (Jen) she 10-11 and Sarah who's 9-10. As with my other stories I use the ******** lines to sepparate the sex scenes. So if you get sick of the boring part of the story, just skip ahead. RUNAWAYS My name is John I’m 35, I’ve always loved younger girls but I didn’t realize how young until 10 yrs ago. When I was 22 I won $100,000,000.00 from a lottery, so I’m set for life. Anyway, 10yrs ago I was...
Roger started to follow but the large Italian man Vincent grabbed hold of his arm, I wouldn't do that if I were you. Holly's eyes opened wide when she was guided through the unmarked door and Viktor locked it behind them it had a vanity with a sink basin, a toilet and a glass enclosed shower. He sat her on the toilet and turned the water in the shower on. She definitely needed to pee but it was embarrassing doing so with him in the restroom. He kept his body and face pointed at the...
"I see you are awake Sleeping beauty. Time for a stop, smoke and a couple hours of sleep don't you think Senorita" he asked? "Sure" she agreed with a yawn. They both got out of the truck and she headed to the ladies room for a potty break. When she got back he had the two chairs out and he was seated smoking a joint and also had a cooler out and a beer in his hand, "Would you like Cerveza" he asked holding up a green can with two large green letter X? Sammi wasn't sure what it...
She took another look at the map and made the decision to walk along a Northwest interstate. It took her almost 45 minutes to get along the interstate she wanted where she thought she might get a ride. She continued to walk but also looked back at the cars and trucks and on occasion would put her thumb out. Finally after another 45 minutes a sleek black big rig pulled over. Sammi had to walk almost 100 yards as it took the truck time to pull over and stop after passing her. Finally...
Viktor walked over by her head and said softly by her ear, "You see Holly, men can be entertained by women in many ways, dancing, stripping, serving, submission, pain, sex and many more ways. Typically sex is the end goal but there are a variety of things that stimulate men sexually. If you want, you can entertain us more now by milking more cum from our cocks. What do you think, Holly, do you want to use your body to milk more cum now?" Feeling so overwhelmingly used Holly shook her...
Their day together was like no day he had experienced in a long time. When she was happy and smiling it seemed like she could light up the world during a full eclipse and her energy was magnetic drawing him to her. He felt like he was in a dream, she was returning his kisses, giggling when he kissed her nose and chin, letting out sighs and moans as he kissed her by her ear, neck and even on her shoulder and every time his eyes found hers he could see that same brightness and smile that he...
"I'm just being stupid aren't I, Ol'Jack? Lot lizards come and go and I'm too old to think a young woman like her would have feelings for an old goat like me. It's just you and I again. I'm sure you were ready to have all of your space back in the truck. Hell that sleeper is barely big enough for one man, let alone an old trucker, a hitchhiker and a dog, don't ya think" he said to his long time best friend. Ol'Jack let out a whine and rest his head on the passenger seat where...
But within a few minutes of hearing it close Roger opened the bathroom door, "Come with me" he ordered and with her following he turned and walked back to her mom and his bedroom. She followed behind him wrapped only in a towel and noticed he was carrying a black skirt of hers as well as her black high heel pumps and a medium sized cardboard box. When they got into his room he set the skirt on the bed, the shoes on the floor and then set the box on the bed as well. Immediately she...
If only Josh could pass out. Or finish himself off already. I have to keep my breathing relaxed. Keep my eyes closed. Keep still in this obscene position he’s put me. Keep pretending I’m asleep. Ignore the shaking of the bed. Ignore his animalistic grunts. Ignore the sound of those fucking ice cubes, clinging against his empty glass to the rhythm of his jerking motions. I hope he doesn’t touch me tonight. I hope he doesn’t fuck me tonight. If only he could pass out. Or finish himself off...
Joseph noticed that Sammi was smiling and seemed more upbeat. Before long they were talking about the truck wash, how much Ol'Jack loved water and how much fun they had playing in the water. They were both laughing really hard about it when the waitress brought their food. As they were eating he said, "There's something I need to make sure you are aware of. Now that I've made my delivery what I typically do is pick up a load and transport it back East and after dropping it I try to...
As she thought about the kiss she realized he puckered and placed his lips gently against hers. In full anticipation of a hit or punch like Roger would have done it was her who actually escalated the kiss by opening her mouth. But Joseph didn't aggressively shove his tongue deep into her mouth or even push his mouth hard to hers. He softly held and kissed her. And yet like a frightened animal she shivered uncontrollably. Being alone in the hotel room, the fear mostly passed that she...
Joseph had not slept in close proximity with a woman since his wife's passing several years previous. He had hooked up with a few lot lizards but it was just for quick sex and he wasn't sure he could even remember their names. He wasn't sure how young, this young lady was but he was sure any man would find her attractive. He of course had not been with a young woman sexually or even physically in years but it wasn't hard to remember how attractive their smooth skin, tiny waist, wide...
After staring at the one on her wrist she looked at the cross on her finger, the clover inside her arm by her elbow and the dragonfly that was paid for by her first gang rape. For a few moments it was hard to breath. Her very quickly planned decision to run away so far had gone pretty well, one puzzle piece at a time. She thought about the dragonfly she had wanted. Like many mothers and daughters she felt like her mother was too strict and was constantly changing the rules when she would...
But her mother was the grown up. She could have kicked him out or called the police. Holly didn't know what else to do. Every day she spent with him things just seemed to get worse and what was even harder with each day's passing she found she was resisting him less. Not only was she making less effort to fight him off but slowly more often she just did what he wanted. The more often she found herself just doing what she was told the less of a human being she felt like. But it was...
He was trying to let his passenger not feel like she was being interrogated but he also couldn't help question the things she did that seemed odd. He took a deep breath and decided to ask something that was bothering him, "Did something happen back at the cafe...with you and Ben?" It was strange the number of emotions that went through her mind while she thought about how to answer his question the strongest emotion shame. She looked around and even squirmed in the seat before making a...
Sammi just nodded affirmation that she was okay but then thought about her dream and what she might have been saying and asked, "What was I talking about?" "Not much of nothin I could understand" Joseph replied but enough ya woke yourself up. He continued, "Why don't ya go stretch out in the sleeper back yonder it's as good a mattress as in most road side motels and ya look pretty tired. Ya probably haven't gotten much shut eye since ya hit the road anyway." Sammi thought about...
It had not been easy traveling across multiple states with limited money she had earned babysitting. It didn't take her long to realize it also wasn't easy to find even the most basic job without any type of identification or a birth certificate. She didn't know if her mom had reported her missing but not wanting to take a chance she took the first name of her beloved childhood dog, Sammi, and thought herself clever to take the sir name Shepherd. Sammi was a chocolate lab but she had...
"Sure" Sammi replied noticing she was hungry and letting her mind wander to the question if the place was expensive? Only a few minutes after making the suggestion Joseph pulled the big rig off the interstate and into the truck stop diner. Before getting out of the truck himself, he instructed Sammi how to safely crawl down from the cab of the truck. As the two walked from the truck to the diner Joseph realized how short and petite Sammi stood. They both went to the washroom first...
We were in yet another dingy hotel room barely fit for the cockroaches, owning only whatever we could transport in the old beat-up station wagon. But at least we still had each other. I sighed with a saddened weariness as I noted the lone bed, large enough for us both but clearly about as old as the well-trampled carpet. The once-white walls were definitely stained with decades of dirt, smoke, the unblinking glare of sunlight, and — I guessed — dried streaks of well-aged semen. The table by...
The day I learned he was getting married I went out to a dive to drink alone and put the past to rest once and for all. On my 2nd beer and 4th shot of tequila I saw him at the other end of the bar where he was having his bachelor party and stared until he looked up. We maintained eye contact far too long, but neither of us made any other move. With nothing more than a gentle flat handed stroke across the lap of one of his groomsmen, I got the date and time and place of the wedding. I wasn’t...

Im 15 and like most girls my age love boys, music and boys. Something different from me and other girls is my family.

There comes a point in your life when you make a decision that changes everything. Even though I was terrified, I was sick and tired of pretending to be someone I wasn’t. I had been wearing my twin sister’s clothes for years, and I had to be a girl. Flash forward to the beginning of summer, a few months after my 16th birthday. I still liked to swipe my sister’s clothes, but I didn’t look like some faggot little kid when I did it. I taught myself, with help from the internet, of course, to...
The Greyhound bus was only half full as it made its way into Iowa from Illinois. Most of the passengers were riding alone and stared out the windows at the fields of corn and soybeans that stretched to the horizon. Molly sat by a window toward the rear of the bus. She watched the farmers toiling in the fields as the bus cut through the vast countryside. This was Molly's first visit to Iowa. She was headed to her Aunt Ruth and Uncle Ben's farmstead near the town of Bentonville. Her Aunt Ruth was...

TransI was walking towards i dont know where, i just wanted to go away. It was dark, there werent any cars, i would occasionally see a truck or two go by. It was then a Truck slowed down next to me. The trucker opened the window and asked me if i wanted a ride. I declined, he insisted that its dark and i might get hit by someone. I got inside his truck. His name was Noah, he was an old silver bear in his late 50s, white beard, hairy white chest hair poking out and a big belly. We introduced...
Many thanks to Techsan for editing this story. If a young man had done exactly the same thing as Melissa did in her younger days, he had been envied, admired and regarded as a popular jolly good fellow among his many friends. Everybody had regarded him as doing exactly the right thing when he collected his large number of experiences before he met "Miss Right" so he could remain faithful to her because he had learnt that "grass wasn't greener" behind the fence. But Melissa wasn't a...
Episode 1 I had just come back from a month-long vacation trip back home and I was dead-tired; I had gotten up at an ungodly hour this morning to catch my flight at St. John's, then a two hour lay-over at Toronto's Pearson Airport before the next leg to the State capital and finally, an hour and half by car to get here. Altogether ten hours' travel time ... the only advantage to flying westward is that the stores were still open; I had nothing in the fridge. I stopped off at Paco's to buy...
My name is Cuthbert Franks; yea I know I've heard them all; and I'm a 35 year old asteroid miner in the Trinity system. By the way I go by 'Cutty' so don't get to wise-assed about it. Now from time to time we have pirates raid us for our stockpiles and most of us miners have 'played' with our ships so that we aren't completely defenseless. Take mine for instance; it looks like just another old freighter converted to ore processer but, you would get a surprise if you tried to take...
Tony saw the dark clouds ahead. At a stoplight in a little northeastern Texas town he checked his phone radar. Yup, a big rainstorm with heavy downpours wasn’t far. He’d keep going though. In his 72 years he’d driven through all kinds of weather. His hotel for the night was waiting, halfway between his home in rural southwest Missouri and Houston where a periodic cancer visit would start tomorrow. Less than two miles out of town he saw a figure trudging on his side, small and with a backpack....
It was dark when I woke up and it took me a second to remember where I was. Curled up in the passenger seat of a Honda Civic. The engine was off and it was quiet. There was some light, more grey than any real color, coming from the windows and I blinked, looking around. I was in a parking garage it looked like, underground and not very full. A few cars scattered here and there, but most of them crowded against a distant wall. The light was coming from a couple ramps mostly, daylight. I...
"You move pretty fast for being so small," the woman said. "I almost caught up with you in Boise." I didn't say anything, even though I had a lot of questions. It was like I couldn't settle on just one to ask, so I didn't ask any. Or maybe I was afraid of the answers. I had been running fast, very fast and even if this woman hadn't been dead, which I was pretty sure she had been, she shouldn't ever have been able to find me. Not by herself, not without help. We got back to the...
The sunlight hurt my eyes, even the very little escaping from the drawn curtains. Just a slender fissure and I turned weakly away from it. I felt tired and empty inside, not so much hungry as just ... empty. My skin was cold and clammy and the light seemed to crawl across my flesh. I trembled and wondered if this wasn't DT, the withdrawl eating away at my brain. I hadn't fixed since I'd seen Vin and I had no idea how long ago that had been. I didn't think I was really addicted to the...
We actually drove through what there was of the town of Newrock, and pulled onto a dirt road that was even worse than the one we'd been traveling. After a mile or two there was a big silver, double wide trailer ahead of us, and Angela parked next to an old pickup truck. There were no lights and if anyone was there, apparently they hadn't been woken up by our arrival. I got out of the car, following Angela as she walked to the mobile home, which had a small wooden porch up a few short...
She was weak now, but still alive four days later. I mean Audrey, of course, who'd become something of a pet to me. We'd brought her home, to our house in Klamath Falls. It was really Angela's place, but she'd made it mine as well. We were mated now, there really was nothing of mine that wasn't Angela's as well, and so the opposite was also true. And I'd been changing. Every hour, every minute, I was becoming something else. There were obvious things, like the way I talked, the way I...
I dreamt. Everyday, sleeping in the cool dark with Angela to hold me, I was dead. And yet I dreamed. And that my dreams were bad I had little doubt, but I could never remember them. They were small snippets and fragments, all jumbled together in one confused memory. And even that much was quickly forgotten as well. But just knowing that I had them troubled me greatly. I thought there must be some meaning there, as Angela had divined me from her own dreams. She'd sought and found me, guided...
I was asleep, and I knew that because my parents were still alive. We were in the car with the darkness all around, as if we'd entered a long tunnel and we had to drive through it. I didn't want to, but in my dream I didn't seem to care as I sat in the backseat, buckled up tight and holding Edgar. I smiled in my sleep I think, because I'd forgotten him completely. Edgar the Bear, soft and stuffed and in my arms. What a nice dream, except for my shoulder. It hurt and when I looked down at...
"There's someone here," I said. "I know," Angela replied from her bath as I entered the small room. I'd been resting, just being lazy really, and talking with Natalie in her bed. "Who is it?" I asked, frowning a little. My power to sense other vampires was growing, but still weak. I had no real idea how near or far this other one was, or what the creature's purpose might be. I didn't believe in coincidence though; this other vampire, whoever it was, would have come to Sacramento...
David finished the first term of Year 10 before he left Australia but the US schools start in August not February. The different start dates and the time he missed has David unsure about what level to start at in the Window Rock High School, so he arranges to be tested by the local school board. In some subjects he tests well enough to be a Junior, what they call Year 11 in the US, and in others he tests out as a Sophomore, the Year 10 equivalent. So he registers as a Sophomore, but in the...
David waits until the Walkers leave the area before he starts to ask around about someone he can talk to in law enforcement in Texas. He’s very careful about who he asks and how he asks them because of his concerns about what he suspects from the records he’s read. On a Tuesday evening in mid December Jerry Fasthorse, the police officer who lives down the street, drops in to talk to David. He says, “I found a contact for you. To talk to them we have to attend a meeting near Albuquerque on...
In the November before his high school graduation David speaks with the trustee of his US based trust about attending university and emails him a copy of what courses he’s finished with a list of what he wishes to do for the next few years. Based on the course information from the university he can start studies in the summer after high school finishes to attend the uni for two years, plus summer classes before, between, and after those two years to have degrees in both business management...
All of David’s summer semester classes are over: the last exam is done, the last assignment is handed in, the major project is finished, he’s all packed up and ready to leave. The staff check his room and sign off on it being correct so he hands in this last piece of paperwork before heading to the car park to leave the university and Albuquerque. Four weeks ago he visited Window Rock to transfer his vehicle registration and driver’s license back to Jason’s address. While there he picked up...
The plane from Auckland, New Zealand, lands at Sydney’s Kingsford Smith Airport in Mascot just before six in the evening local time after a three and a quarter hour flight in the Emirates A380 Airbus. This isn’t the first time David has flown in an A380 but this is his first time in the Business Class of an Emirates plane, and he found it to be the most comfortable flight he’s had in Business Class of any airline he’s used. He has an easy and quick trip through immigration due to being an...
I had to depart for my afternoon workout session with Kim as soon as the call ended. We were almost to the end when Liz appeared in the room. “Come back to the office when you’re finished here, please,” she said. I grunted my assent since I was in the middle of forcing my arm outward with a stick and it wasn’t the most pleasant feeling I’d ever experienced. Liz stood and watched for a moment before smiling sadly and heading back to work. “Is she mad?” Kim asked from the...
I had almost made it to my feet but I dropped back on the couch. The fact I was wearing the soft sling didn’t do my arm any favors. “Wait!” I said. “What?” “I’m not comfortable with her working out here any longer,” Liz said. “She’s been on vacation all week!” I said. “That’s part of the problem,” Liz said. “She’s missed a lot of work recently and I ... I’m not happy with how she’s come to view her job here.” “First off, she was sick for two days,” I cut in. “The vacation has been...
Skye and Jill scattered like cockroaches when the light comes on as soon as my face appeared in the doorway. Liz looked up from her desk while I stood sheepishly in front of her. “If you want Brea gone, she’s gone,” I said. “No,” Liz said almost at once. “I was being silly.” “It’s not worth arguing with you over,” I told her. “If she’s going to be a problem then you’re right. We should let her go. But I still think we do it in a way that it doesn’t come back on her at the hospital.” “She...
