V.I.P.
Hayley ached all over. Her feet were sore, her back was stiff, and her arms felt like they were held together with old frayed rubber bands. Frankly, the only thing had had come even close to getting her through her double shift today was the promise of the little silver card in her back pocket. And she didn’t care if […]
Vacancy
The sound of the buzzer woke Paul out of a dream about game shows, which probably meant that it had been going off for quite a while before it managed to penetrate his consciousness enough to rouse him. He stumbled out of the small twin bed, staggering forward as the floral sheets clutched at his ankle in a way that […]
Vacant Moan
Rose tried to hide her excitement when she heard Nani’s phone go off. She kept looking at her magazine with a deliberately casual air, as though Nani’s ‘Bolero’ ringtone couldn’t be nearly as engrossing as the latest antics of Prince George and Princess Charlotte. But she couldn’t stop herself from glancing excitedly out of the corner of her eye at […]
Valentine Surprise
Janine was crying. Life had not been kind to her lately. George had left her for another woman, a slut! She was home alone on a Friday night just before Valentine’s Day and that sucked. She hadn’t had an orgasm that wasn’t related to a dildo in years. She stared at the computer screen. What could she do to take […]
Validation
“These aren’t books — they’re an abomination!” Lindsay leaned toward the microphone and stared into the eyes of the local TV station reporter. “They are exactly the kind of corrosive degeneracy that is destroying our families and our nation.” “But what else can we possibly expect?” Lindsay went on, shaking her head with a convincing blend of sadness and disgust. […]
Universal Acceptance
Dave flopped onto his miserable bed, after a miserable day, with a miserable feeling. He was worn out after simply the first day of college. Unbelievably, they had 4 tests that day off of the insane amount of summer homework. Knowing he probably failed most of them, probably because he did almost none of the homework, he was beginning a […]
Universal Remote
I had begun my career, as many scientists do, working at a college lab and teaching graduate students. I quickly had become an expert in neurology, and although not a medical doctor, I knew more about the brain than most typical biologists. Since I had student loans to pay, and teaching doesn’t exactly make millionaires, I decided to work for […]
Umbrella!
We are four normal guys, perverts. I’m Gary, that’s my best friend, Joey, the one with the black hair, and my other friends Billy, with the blonde hair, and Arthur, the tall, skinny goofy one. We attend the same college in the Northeast and return home to Dayton, Ohio during school breaks to touch bases with our parents; after all, […]
Unaffected
For one terrifying moment, Kelly thought that the door wasn’t going to open, but then she realized that the handle had simply slipped through her sweaty hands. She wiped her palms on her sensible dark gray business skirt, not really caring if she left any marks at this point, and turned the knob again. This time, it rotated easily in […]
Unbelievable
A close friend or a family member might notice the tiny narrowing of the corners of her green eyes, behind glasses that she had tilted ever so slightly downward. They might spot the way her full, ruby lips pursed as she looked over the sheaf of papers in front of her–not like a lover might pucker up for a kiss, […]
