    Chapter 10

    Pink boxers are fine, if you bought pink. They aren't great if they are accidentally dyed that color. Yeah, I owed it to the readers to get this story going again. I'm glad people understand and are still waiting.

    Yeah, Jonas is back. Glad you were still waiting.
  3. So the beginning of my weekend sucked, to put it mildly. When I got home Friday night, I tried to get everything I was wearing clean. I could smell the garlic and tomato sauce that had coated my clothes, and just wanted to forget this blind date had ever happened. Mrs. Meyers came out to get a cup of coffee just as I walked into the kitchen wearing chef’s whites. “Well, that is, um, certainly different to wear on a date.” She took a quick look and leaned against the counter, her
  4. We all have those times when things go wrong, but sometimes we need help to see that we aren't living our lives, we are just existing. Glad you liked it Kitt.
  5. Thank you Ron. Family is the only one we'll accept that type of treatment from. Alex wasn't moving on, he was wallowing. His sister made sure he wasn't just existing any more, that he was living instead. Glad you liked it.
  6. Well we all need time to grieve but you can't wallow in it. His sister was his wake up call to get back to life. Glad you liked it Valkyrie.
  7. I'm glad avid. I was afraid if I touched the other prompt I could only do a sad story like the others and I wasn't in that type of mood.
  8. “I can’t do this with you anymore. I’ve got to have my own life.” Those words echoed in Alex’s head six months after Sean left. Six months of making excuses and cutting himself off from his friends who offered sympathy. Time spent hiding out from his sister, who wanted to make sure he was doing alright. Six months of working himself till exhaustion and then falling into bed praying he would sleep. Alex was heading home, tired and exhausted only to see his sister sitting on the stoop of his br
  9. While basically Eros and Cupid are the same, Eros was seen as a young man full of sexual vitality and the equal of Psyche. Cupid was described more as a child and he was given the bow and arrow by the Romans. So I kept the identities separate for this story so I would have the story I desired. You have to have a little freedom when you write to create your own world. Even Aphrodite and Venus are not exact copies of one another, as both groups used the Goddess of Love differently. Eros was even seen as older than Aphrodite, one of the four original Gods to come from the darkness. Cupid has always been seen as Venus's child.

    I think it's a case of you hope for the best, but you prepare for the worst. Thank you for reading and reviewing the story.
  11. I think now and then people just need to stand up for themselves. You have to face the issues head on. I don't like violence, but sometimes it comes down to you or me, and face it, I'm tired of the bruises.
  12. Well I did promise you more and Chapter 7 did answer those for you I hope.
  13. Yes, I figured there was too much left unsettled in the first part so I needed a better ending. Glad you enjoyed it
  14. You are lucky Suvitar. Most neighborhoods have a version of the nosy neighbor who is more than willing to spy on everyone and pass judgement as well.

    Sometimes the only way to see where you are going is to know where you have been. I do hope you enjoy the story Louis.

  17. I love the twist you put on this fairy tale Lugh. Nicely done.

    Chapter 1

    Well Stephen, something kept Mrs. Benson up. After all she did have dark circles under her eyes before she ever got to the cemetery. Guess you will have to keep reading to find out the rest. Thanks for the comment though.

    Chapter 1

    The morning began as it had every year on this date. Mrs. Benson had toast and a cup of coffee. At nine a.m., she called for me and told me that she would be going to the cemetery later, and to please have the car ready by nine thirty. Today, she was dressed all in black and there were dark circles under her eyes, as I held the car door open for her. “Thank you, James.” Mrs. Benson patted my arm on her way past me. I stood in my uniform with my hat tucked under my arm. She slowly moved toward

    Mrs. Benson

    When Mrs. Benson goes to the cemetery to visit her family's graves she finds they have been robbed. The sight causes her to have a heart attack and leaves her two employees, James Trenton and Alice Frank to deal with ghosts that have been shaken loose by this tragedy.
  21. Congrats to the winners. You worked hard and we loved you for it.
  22. Spanking? I didn't get the notice. Meanwhile, looks like everyone is busy for a change. Isn't that nice.
  23. Congratulations and Thank You as well. I'm one of the poor suckers she has helped turn something rough and dark, into a diamond for someone to read.
  24. Thank you Kitt. Yeah, I think everyone knows that local busybody. Sometimes it is Mrs. Weston, and sometimes it is her husband instead.
  25. Aw, that is heartbreaking. I agree, I would have jumped to the conclusion Lee was cheating on me and wanted his ba... well I would have seriously considered removing something he might need. However, I too would have been looking for a way to comfort my lover and possibly save his parents marriage. Nice story, KC.
