[♥] He took another sip and muttered to himself. The dang woman couldn't put a straw through her juice carton, let alone figure out how to work a simple cell phone. Yet, she managed to get into his heart. Man, she was amazing.
[♥] With her blonde hair, sparkling blue eyes, she laughed a little too loudly, but it was a free, open laugh. She didn't care who heard her - she was too happy to care.
[♥] The sweet summer sun lightly kissed her cheeks as she laid sprawled out on the front lawn in front of her suburban home. With her arms folded up behind her head, her legs crossed, one over the other, her body in a state of complete relaxation. The feelings summer brought were nothing short of amazing.
[♥] His hair and clothes became soaked as he stood out under the raining clouds hovering over the streets. There was a certain bleakness looming over the city, and yet he couldn't be happier there. That place was his home.
RULES:
Alright, if you've ever been in one of my contests you'll know I'm not too uptight about your rules, so here we go!
1] NO GOD BASHING, totally unnecessary in my book so just don't do it.
2] We'll allow erotica, but please keep it to a minimum and if your story can do without it, please don't put it in.
3] No word limits, guys! Go wild!!!
4] Tell us which prompt you used!
5] HAVE FUN!
Note from Erica: Morning Star's basically said everything there needs to be said, but I hope you have fun!
