Next Stop is Love

Submitted to Contest #239

“Come back nobody will take your place, I can’t breathe without you, I need you, I want you in my life, please come back I can’t breathe without you nobody will ever take your place Ally please come back to me as I’m on bended knee.?” The tear drops fall from Ally’s hazel eyes as she catches her breath. The crowded morning workers heading downtown to work on the #1 train down Broadway got a wake-up morning song of the day. Some of the female straphangers yell, “Kiss him why don’t you so sweet.” “Don’t let him stand on bended knee for that lo...

Holly Puck

Submitted to Contest #199

“Come on Logan, I’m up 5-1 you can’t stop me you can only hope to contain me,” laughs Johnny. “Come on Logan are you going to take that from him, you can take him out eye of the tiger dude, eye of the tiger,” says Jack. Logan focuses and keeps his eyes on the puck as Johnny circles his mallet around the puck and smashes it as Logan barely blocks it out of the goal as he slaps the puck to the left side of the table as it careens to the right as Johnny scrambles and inadvertently scores on himself making it 5-2. Logan nods at Jack and looks ri...

Ricky tries to get away, “Hey, cut it out you’re messing up my new haircut,” “Yeah you don’t want your haircut messed up in front of Daisy,” Caesar mentions. “What, what are you talking about?” Ricky questions. “Come on dude, I know you like ...

The birds chirping was my alarm clock for today, TGIF Thank God It’s Friday. The dream I was having was just freedom, a sensation of wonder which I didn’t want to end. The sloth was my avatar today it seems since I was asking every part of my body permission to move, as the sun was trying to creep in, but the Wonder Woman and Harley Quinn window curtains were blocking it. I finally got out of bed, putting on my sandals as the sun came beaming down my face temporarily blinding me as I parted the curtains. The warm breeze comes in as I open th...

*light nudity in the story* “What are you doing, trying to catch the next boat to Staten Island,” as I texted Jessica “Oh man, you’re funny what are you doing aren’t you supposed to be working buddy,” are you working on your walk as you head into work, Jessica texts back. “Ha, ha, very funny I’m strutting to work see you in a few minutes,” I text back smiling. I laugh as I begin to strut down Broadway as the “Staying Alive” goes jingling in my head. It never gets old walking down the avenue of the world, whoa what’s the theme to Back...

Paying it Forward

Submitted to Contest #195

My feet are killing me and it’s only 8 O’ clock, I have four more hours left till I can go home and take a nice warm bubble bath with some melodic house mix by DJ Korolova. “Valentina, Valentina I need some more napkins over here please and some water get over here.” Oh man, this man is so annoying, he’s been a regular for the past few months and is a pain in my ass ever since I turned him down but that hasn’t deterred him coming since the food and ambiance of this place keeps bringing him and other regular customers back. I can’t say I blam...

ATM F/X

Submitted to Contest #159

The waterfall of tears from the sky fall to match my tears as thoughts of my ex-boyfriend appear as I run past by our favorite spot to eat as we chilled out playing board games by the boat basin overlooking the Hudson River. The pounding of the raindrops on my back starts to pick up even more so I decide to cut my run at five miles and head out. As I run up the hill making my way out of the park a biker comes riding down past me yelling, “Wow this is some rainstorm, isn’t it?” “I yell back. “Yeah, it is for sure and props to you for riding i...

Sunny Skies

Submitted to Contest #158

The seagulls fly overhead as smoke rings go up in the air. Chris tries to catch them as I blow them out. “You’re amazing you know that” as Chris’s eyes glistens. I flick my cigarette to the side as I lay my sweaty back on the hood of the car feeling the warm sun reflecting off of it. I look up at the clear blue skies and look up at the few cotton clouds above and wonder how many we’ve lost to be able to enjoy a day like today relaxing in the parking lot of a renovated MCU Park with my husband, Chris. I remember a time when things were in cha...
