When the homecoming game ended with a convincing 28-7 win in favor of the home team, I followed Brooke and Ashley as they walked out towards the parking lot, having completed cheering for their high school team that night. Unsurprisingly, as the cheerleading captain, Brooke had been elected homecoming queen in her senior year, and I was very eager to celebrate with her as well. Naturally, Ashley was eager to join her equa...

I pulled into the driveway, parked the vehicle, and stepped out of the car, quickly walking to the front door. I made sure to knock only four times to indicate it was me. A few seconds later, the front door opened. The blonde brown eyed eighteen year old senior and cheerleader captain, Brooke Bailey, immediately opened the door. She was in a white bathrobe, having freshly showered, but I knew that would change soon. “Hi,”...

It was a typical Friday afternoon. I was an 18 year old high school senior, and at that moment, I was sitting in the basement with my two good friends, Chuck and Kyle. We were goofing around when Chuck suggested we play Truth or Dare. "Truth or Dare?" I asked Kyle. "Okay, truth this time," Kyle answered. "What's the most dangerous thing you have ever done?" I asked him. "Uh... well..." "Come on, you've definitely done a l...

It was a late Saturday night, and I was down at my friend’s house for some drinks and a good time - your typical Saturday night shenanigans. It was me, my mate Mason, and a few other friends there along with his little sister. His parents had gone interstate for the weekend and had left the house to them. I usually enjoyed these nights and Uni had also finished for the year, so it should've made it that much better. For s...

A year had passed since Donna and I had our interlude at her house on Thanksgiving Day.  We’d crossed paths several times but had never gotten together again.  Apparently, her husband, John, had experienced some sort of epiphany not long after that day.  He was sober and treating her like the treasure she is.  She laughed when she told me of her shock the first time that he cleared the supper table and loaded the dishwash...

It was a cloudy Friday afternoon when we pulled up the driveway that led to Becca's parent's house. “We're here,” Becca announced, as she parked her car and unbuckled her seatbelt. I unbuckled my seatbelt and started to get out of the car, but Becca grabbed my left shoulder and motioned for me to remain in my seat. “Hold on,” Becca said. “There's something that we need to talk about first.” “A couple family rules?” I wond...

Officer Rick Cordan sat in his vehicle on the I-77 turnpike. He watched the road ahead of him as he looked for speeders. It had been a long boring Tuesday night. Only a handful of vehicles had passed him, and none of those drivers were going over the speed limit. Suddenly, a blue 2013 Civic sped past him! The driver was doing an 80 in a 65! At long last, some action! Cordan switched his vehicle into Drive, turned left, an...
