    The Meeting

    thanks! it was fun trying to cram all items into the story
  4. You know what's messed up about leaving everything behind? How good it feels. Just… liberating. I didn't have any regrets as I revved up my bike and sped out into the night. Goodbye, suburbia. Goodbye, life of lies. I didn't really have a destination in mind. I just let the road take me wherever it wanted, and the feeling of the night wind on my face was exhilarating. Despite everything that had happened, I found myself smiling. I took the freeway north, hunched over the handlebars, and fired u
  5. My response to prompt 439. 'Use the following in a story – a clown, a motorcycle, vacation tickets, chocolate cake, and a ring.'
  6. Thanks! Glad you liked it
  7. There's definitely a creepiness factor at work there, that's for sure.

    Prompt 439

    Awww, this was so sweet! Two people making an honest effort to save their love. Awesome! Props for fitting in the vacation tickets - I'm trying to find a way to stick them into my response, lol.
  9. Lol - I'm imagining a pink-and-green crazed clown on a motorcyle
  10. Yay, thanks! It's wonderful to see how so many people are curious about what's really going on, and yet at the same time we all agree that it might be best to just leave it as is
  11. Thank you very much! I'm going to let the mystery stand, though
  12. I had so much fun with this one that I definitely will!
  13. Sometimes, not knowing something for sure is way sweeter than getting an answer, and I guess this story will have to be the former.
  14. lol! - Don't worry, there's no plans to continue adding anything at this time.
  15. Creepy was exactly what I was going for!
  16. I'm sorry to hear you could relate so personally to this story, but thank you very much for reviewing!
  17. Thank you! It was an entirely different experience to write a story by starting from a prompt, and it's amazing how something so small can lead your mind and unexpected directions
  18. Please, go to Sleep 1 "Hey, Mike. What's the matter?" I rubbed my face with both my hands, trying to get rid of some of exhaustion, but I couldn't stop them from shaking. Felix noticed. "Mike?" he asked me, his tone going from annoyed to concerned. "Is everything okay?" "Yes. Yeah, I mean… Can I come in for a bit?" My question ended up sounding whiny, but I couldn't help it. Felix nodded, stepping away from his door, letting me into his flat. I walked past him, straight into the
  19. My response for prompt number 444: Would you, please, go to sleep? I tried to do something different for this one, and it's my first time responding to a prompt! It was great fun!
  20. Thank you very much for your review, and for every other review. While I can't exactly say I'm glad I triggered such a strong emotion in you, I was feeling certain things very intensely when I wrote that scene, and the fact that I was able to transmit them to another is humbling.
  21. Thank you very much! For me, feedback from readers is what makes the entire journey worth it.
  22. Thanks! Josh was definitely not the only thing that drove Nathan to the breaking point, but sadly, survivor's guilt will not let Josh see things clearly. I'm glad the sorry didn't turn out to be a downer. Nevertheless, I think I will focus on less difficult topics for the foreseeable future.
  23. that is, sadly, very true. Suicide is very often unexpected, but no less devastating because of it.
  24. wow... thank you. I'm humbled that you have found this story lived up to its potential. The subject matter was very difficult, but I'm glad it came out as I intended.
  25. Thank you so much for reviewing!
