Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette

The Old Soldier has gone into the archives to give you one of my old stories to read for your flash fiction entertainment.  Although, I would much rather publish a flash fiction story from a guest writer instead of one of my own stories, that’s not always possible.

Hello hello hello, my blogging and writing friends and Flash Fiction Fanatics.  I have several small red potatoes, a cut up green pepper and two large turkey wings in the crock pot.  That has nothing to do with anything.

The story in this post has a lot to do with the theory that a writer can write a sexy story without resorting to dirty language.

Now for our feature presentation.

Totally Nude

The young husband sat on the lid of the toilet seat while the young wife soaked in a bubble bath.  He had left his suit coat and tie in the living room and had rolled up the sleeves of his dress shirt.  He sat drinking a can of beer.

“Congratulations,”she said.

“Sure I took it. I hustled my butt off signing up advertisers and Murphy wouldn’t know a simple sentence if it bit him.”

“One man’s loss is another man’s gain.”

“He’ll be happier in distribution.  Tough day today?”

“Mid-term evaluations.  Three of my freshmen are in trouble.  Let me have some of that.”

He handed her the can.  Then he got down on his knees next to the tub and began gently rubbing the soapy bubbles over her breasts.  She watched his hand, took another drink and smiled at him.  He reached into the soapy water down between her legs.

“Careful,” she said.  “The last time you did that we almost drowned.”

Reluctantly, he took his hand away and got up.  He looked down at her and smiled.  He was happy with his life.  “I’ll fix dinner.”

“I love you.”

The End
