The match was over and now, after all the beer and snacks it was time for sex! Bernard watched his wife enter the room and felt a feeling of emotionlessness boredom. Even though she had spent all of the second half of the match preparing for this, he was really just not interested. Not at all… Sex had become a […]

Stanley knew what he wanted and just when and how he wanted it. He had very little patience for people who were incompetent. His wife Alice, a rather meek, submissive woman, had learned to say how high, when he said jump and what color, when he said shit. She knew that any excuses or mistakes were simply unacceptable. She was, […]

I take a long drag on a half-smoked cigarette and toss it to the pavement, watching the rain put it out for me. I look up at the window, but I don’t see anything except for light shining out through gauzy pink curtains. If they’re having sex up there, it’s away from the window at least. There’s a little voice […]

“Thank you so much for seeing me on such short notice Dr. Henley” “That’s quite alright Ms. Benson it just so happens I have some free time this afternoon. Now what can I do for you?” As you can see it all started innocently enough, I was feeling depressed and unloved. My marriage of less than ten years was nothing […]

“I’m fine,” I hiss, turning away rapidly before Roy can see the tiny trickle of blood spilling down my pale wrist. I pull my sleeve down sharply, angrily, as if simply covering the wound can make the entire situation go away. It doesn’t-I can still feel the stinging pain where the Drone found the tiny gap between the cuff of […]

Trey leans back in his chair and breathes slowly. Trying to exhale all the stress that the day has placed upon him. He knew that becoming a principal would have its moments, but he never dreamed it would be like this. He is interrupted from a daydream as the front door of his office is thrown back, the knob buffeting […]

I know that I shouldn’t. And I wouldn’t, either. No, I don’t mean ‘wouldn’t, I mean ‘won’t’. I might notice you staring at your textbook, your eyes riveted to the page, your expression so beautifully blank and open as you follow the words automatically and let any distractions fade into the background to be captured by your unconscious mind. I […]

It was always awkward dropping in on an ex-boyfriend, but it was a lot more awkward when you had to explain to them that you were really there to talk to their sex toy. “I’m sorry, you want to what?” Aaron said, looking more bewildered than upset. She really couldn’t blame him. It was an amicable enough split, but they […]

“Do you know what a meme is? “You probably do, even if you’ve never actually looked it up in the dictionary. It’s a pretty familiar concept, once you get past the funny name. Roughly speaking, a meme is an idea that passes from one person to another, sort of like a virus. And just like a virus reproduces using a […]

Tom woke to the overhead fluorescents of a hospital ward. A stiff dull pain throbbed behind his eyes. Crisscrossing, armslotted tubes wound their way about the flickering space. He felt splinters in his shins, and all attempts to rise were stifled by shooting daggers. The room was a barebones machine closet aired by an unshielded metal fan. Just above his […]
