Click hereAs I load my suitcase into the car there is nobody watching me as there was when I arrived, but my attention is elsewhere. I am looking forward, anticipating a future in which anything could happen. In this pleasant weather I'm wearing just a more flattering vest top beneath my red hooded coat and even then the overcoat is a little warm.
As I slam the boot of the car and walk back around to the driver's door I reach back into the pocket of my coat for my keys. My heart pumps faster as it closes around a familiar sugary disc. I pull it from my pocket as I slide myself behind the wheel of the car, a yellow piece of candy with a pink heart shape printed on it. Spelled out in pink letters I can clearly see two words:
'Eat me'.
THE END

This was a sweet story, I thank you for writing it. It makes me happy to see that not all sexual stories have to be crude, this was done with class and romance. I also must praise you on the allusions to past texts.
One of the most tasteful and literate stories I've seen here...I enjoyed every word! Excellent job.
Well worth waiting for - great stuff - loved the excerpts from Goblin Market &c. Sweet O.
Very much enjoyed the story, and the irony of using the verses from Shakespeare's MidSUMMER in the cold of February was charming. Nicely done.
