Cassy & Bob and the Inevitable

“He was such a good dancer. His kiss was so soft. I wish you’d let me have some more.” Cassy daydreamed as she tickled her husband’s hand during their elevator ride. “Watching you with that tall black guy just got me going too much. It made me too jealous. The size of him and what I can only imagine was […]

The Friendly Face of Death

The job never ends and yet I always seem to have an abundance of time. People die quite literally constantly and yet I can always give them the time they need, whether that time is minutes, hours or even days. It rarely takes longer than that for people to finally make their choice. It’s always kind of fun to see […]

Rebecca’s Fantasy

As Jason checked into the hotel, he was in a crappy mood. The TSA Pre-check line at the airport was jammed, his flight was late in leaving and arriving, the rental car company screwed up his reservation, and the hotel didn’t have his reward number in the system. He was a patient man and tried very hard not to take […]

The Amateurs

I must say that I was more than a little surprised when my coworker Sue asked me if I’d like to help make a porn video with her and her boyfriend. Apparently, her boyfriend Kyle had rented an amateur video for the two of them to watch, and it was pretty bad. They got talking about how the scenes should […]

A Recruiting Visit to Remember

“This is RIP Nordi and welcome to station KTRY15 the HOME OF THE NIGHTHAWKS. This week our Nighthawk football team takes on the #15 ranked team in the nation in what should be a thrilling battle. However, probably more importantly, our school is hosting some of the top recruits in the nation to show them what it means to be […]

The Hall-Pass

“Brittany and John have been swinging for years.” That’s how the conversation started. Out of nowhere, on a Saturday afternoon, as we raked leaves on an unusually warm fall morning, my wife of five years casually threw out that nugget of information about her cousin and best friend. “What?” I was caught completely off guard and was instantly intrigued with […]

An Ordinary Thursday

I’m always drained by Thursday night. I probably spent the last hour of work just staring at my screen. There could have been ten firetrucks and a fire tornado ripping through the city beside the bus on the ride home, and I probably wouldn’t have noticed it. I was flopped on the couch, staring at the TV, with no comprehension […]

The Fall of GAIA

I have read LE stories for a while and have enjoyed many of them immensely. The quality and creativity of the myriad authors is pleasing and a bit intimidating. I am just starting off submitting some of my own efforts. I appreciate the many authors who note in their openings that they prefer to write (and read) an engaging story […]

Grumpy Old Ladies

“I’m not old,” Donna said, half whining and half incredulously, and recoiling as her youngest daughter tried to take the plate full of mini quiches right out of her hands. She was quicker, though, and turned her body to keep them out of reach. Christina rolled her eyes in the same exact way Donna herself had always done with her […]

Moonlit Night on the Lake

Tossing and turning uncomfortably, Barbra lay on her bed, unable to fall asleep. In a thoroughly unsuccessful attempt at relief from the sweltering heat, the bed-covers were thrown back, exposing her naked, sweat-covered body. As tiny rivulets of perspiration trickled down her skin and dripped onto the sheet beneath her, the wet, clammy feel of her bed only added to […]
