  1. hehe - Thanks - it's good he has his eyes open to see the chances as they come up. But this one - the musician thing - is pretty big ...
  2. well - there's two strong votes for "do it" ... .... so this story likes to write itself, I'm finding. or does that mean my muses are just getting verbal?
  3. Jerod’s car sat in my drive. I had not yet left the passenger seat; my last quickly gulped whiskey was starting to burn its way through my system, leaving me somewhat sluggish. Jerod had turned in his seat and was studying me, a gentle look in his eyes. “Are you ok? You’re looking flushed. Thanks again for coming, Paul. It was nice checking the place out with a friend.” I stretched languidly, unbuckling my seat belt. “I had a good time, Jer. It’s a nice enough place, though might b

  5. Stefano lay on the flat outcropping, hands under his head as he watched the stars. For once his mind wasn’t awash with problems and concerns; he let his mind wander where it would. He almost fell from his rest spot into the pounding surf when Nikolos’ voice exploded in his mind. Stefano. I am here, my friend. You sound upset. What is amiss? Your lover is injured. It is not overly critical, certainly not fatal, not if attended to soon. I had thought to carry him to your Keep, but t

    Tommy reminds me of tooooooo many "divas" (excellent word, btw) As for Paul and Jared - - I guess future chapters will tell...

    Thank you for reading both! Though I must admit - keeping two stories going at once is a bit more than I had figured on

    I stood at the mirror and wondered about the man I was seeing. Six-foot one, dark wavy hair bordering on curly, steel-blue eyes, and build not too shabby, considering my age and lack of discipline in diet and exercise. A tan western shirt over blue jeans and black boots, I shuddered for a moment, hearing Annie’s voice, quoting a country favorite as memories flooded in. “Why’d you come in here lookin’ like that?” I turned and smiled. “Too much?” “Not for here, but I’m not sur

    I don't view it as disrespect, though I can understand your seeing it this way. Hopefully he'll be able to redeem himself further into the story. Unfortunately, Paul would never go with a stranger at a bar - though I appreciate your viewpoint.

    Technically - we don't know Paul and Cheryl did anything except hold each other ... except for the conversation between friends the next day at the pool. At any rate, Paul is just "waking up" as it were - who knows to where?

    thanks for the smile So glad you're still enjoying the story!!
  20. True to my word, I called Cheryl the following Monday after work, and we set a date. That Thursday evening found us sitting beside each other at Gundrie’s, a favorite restaurant for both of us. Many clandestine meetings had happened here in years past, but the night felt new, different, and alive. Cheryl was in a deep blue dress, her ears sparkled with tender dangles, out-shined only by her eyes. I had worn dark slacks with a blue shirt, quite by accident, yet our colors blended well – a strong
  21. no ... but I don't mind people joining me in tears ...
  22. Music has always been a healer for me - guess that's one of the ways Paul resembles me --- you write what you know - right?

  24. “Damn, I don’t believe I grabbed this.” I sat down on the bench in front of my locker, staring at the swim suit in my hand. “What’s wrong?” Jerod glanced at me while sliding himself into his suit. “Looks like perfectly good speedo to me.” “It is, I suppose. But I hadn’t planned on bringing a speedo in the first place and in the second place this is the one Annie got me … our last aniversary. Personally, I’ve never figured why since I had other good ones.” “Well slip it on an
