Love, Loss, and Spilled Coffee
Scott wasn't sure when he realized it was over between himself and Anna, his girlfriend of three years. All he knew was that one day they were eating a silent lunch _lots of meals had been silent...how long has that been happening?_ and two hours later...
wander ~ Chapter 2
Being Monday, though, the course of the day and my mind inevitably shifted to other things. First period I was a teacher's assistant for a German class, one I'd taken the past couple years in high school but had opted out of this year - which inspired...
Family Days 16
It was always getting closer, and the sound of his heart was like that of a tympani drum in his ears. A part of him wondered why it was like this--what had he done to deserve such anxiety? Perhaps a bit of catapres would help, or maybe some konoplin?...
Summer Nights
It takes twenty minutes to bike home from work. Normally takes half an hour to get to work, but by the time I leave it's four in the morning, and it's easier to dodge around drunks than cars. In the summer, the bike ride home is the best part of my...
wander ~ Chapter 5
"So what've you got next?" I had to raise my voice a bit for Tony to be able to hear me, beneath the common noise and bustle that always rumbled in the hallways during passing periods. I'd had to call his name once the class got out, since I guess...
A Taste of Something Else ~ Chapter 12
Mom was visibly relieved to see me up and moving about Monday morning (regardless of my interrupted sleep), and honestly, I had a good feeling about the coming week. Sick as it may seem, there was no burden of _what if William shows up after school and...
Growing Up
(Meta note: the world can thank [Akeron Valanx](%5C) for inspiring this story, based on some work he intends to publish... someday. Note that this story is not in my usual universe, which is much more tolerant than this one.) **Growing Up** Don had...
Family Days 15
Marion stared at the blank TV in front of him, being lulled into and out of a content slumber while feeling the occasional tug from the large male behind him. He couldn't deny how nice it felt to be nestled into another's embrace. It was much different...
a tale of dragons: part three
A tale of dragon's chapter 3 OMFG! A wwwhhhhoooollllleee week has passed since I last posted. Sorry for the wait for the new chapter, but I've been working on another yiffy story (anthro dragoness's in the new one.) I hope the new chapter is up to...
wander ~ Chapter 11
Not even noon yet and my body already dragged with the weight and looming exhaustion that a full day usually brought. Some... ten, fifteen minutes since I'd sent that message, and not only had I failed to get any more progress on my homework (come on,...
wander ~ Chapter 8
Noise! Good _God_, the _noise_ of this place... I guess it'd been a while since I'd last found my way to the mall on the weekend. Since my ex and I broke up last year, I never really went anywhere other than to work if I had a job at the time, or to...
wander ~ Chapter 4
Amber eyes, looking bright of their own rather than by reflecting the cold glow from the lights overhead... Tony looked like he slept well. Better than myself, at least, and better than Tyler behind me, who I think hadn't yet noticed the cheetah's...
