“How much do you love me?”
“More than you could imagine.”
“Even if I’m a heartless bitch sometimes?”
“I always forgive you.”
“It’s only because I haven’t found the right heart yet.”
“Well, now you have me.”
“You’re right. Your heart should last me a long time.”
“What?”
“Nothing. Go back to sleep, Mi Corazon.”
Love is Unconditional
The werewolf’s eyes dance greedily over his lover’s form, silhouetted against the window. She hums, washing the dishes, blissfully unaware of his presence. She still believes he is chained in the basement of their home. Those chains did not hold him tonight. She will finally understand what it means to be loved by a werewolf.
Growing Up
The young woman brushes a blonde curl from the doll’s face before placing it in the display case.
“I love you, Dolly,” she says as she pulls the doll’s string.
“I love you,” Dolly replies.
“Goodbye, Dolly,” the woman says as she leaves the darkened store.
Dolly giggles, “You’re never too old for Dolly.”
As the Sand Falls
I watch the sand trickle softly downwards. “So I’m really going to die?”
“Uh-huh.” The cloaked man in the corner said absently, looking at the knick-knacks on my library shelves.
“This is the part when you tell me you’re kidding.”
“Really? Sorry, I’m unversed in mortal slang.” Death said, taking the hourglass. “Well, let’s go.”
Feeling Time Flow
*Tick-Tock*
I stood on the deck, relishing the feel of the thin, crisp air, fingering my pocket watch.
*Tick-Tock*
“We got rich, Captain. That ship was loaded.” I heard my First Mate say from behind me.
*Tick-Tock*
“Good.” I watched clouds sweep beneath us.
*Tick-Tock*
“And by the way, this is a mutiny.”
*Tick-*
Leaving
He held the hussy around the waist as his wife opened the front door, bags in hand.
“Are you sure?” She asked, giving him one last look.
“I love her.” He replied flippantly.
“Ok, I understand.” With tears in her eyes she left her home, whispering to herself. “And by the way, I’m pregnant.”
Gigi’s Secret
Laughing, he lead Gigi down the hall to a room, locking the door behind them.
Gigi pushed him to the bed, and strapped him to it. The man smiled, and she couldn’t resist.
“I’ve been looking forward to this all night.” Gigi’s voice deepened. “ And by the way, I’m a man.”
Dreaming
Laying in her arms, he couldn’t remember when he had been more happy. Looking into the green sky and the sheep-shaped clouds he sighed, content.
I never want this to end, he thought.
“By the way, class started three hours ago.”
The dream shattered and he cursed, looking at the clock.
A New Experience
She gasped in shock as he revealed it. It was so big, it intimidated her. She didn’t have any experience with this sort of thing.
“Just a little taste.” His eyes were eager as he urged her to try.
She opened her mouth and took a lick.
“Oh wow! This gelato is great!”
Heaven’s Promise
Searching across the azure sky, her face lit up when she saw a glimmer at the edge of a cloud.
“I promise to be a good girl, Grandma. You’ll be proud when we see each other again.” The little girl beamed as she went to go tell her father that she had seen Heaven.
