Tuesday Tales - Chase

Happy Memorial Day. Welcome to this weeks Tuesday's Tale with the word prompt Chase.I like to thank you for stopping by and hope you are enjoying Billy and Alexandra's story. Don't forget to visit the Tuesday Tales Blog to read my tales. “It feels so good to be home.” Alexandra sat on the couch with her feet up on the cocktail table sipping on a latte. “I couldn’t wait to get out of the community hospital gown. It feels great to be wearing my own clothes.” “I’m happy you are out of there too.” He didn’t want to tell Alexandra about the whole hospital incident. There was no need to scare her. He would get her settled in before going down to the precinct. Alexandra tapped her hand on the couch. “Come sit with me. I want to taste you lips without the nurse staring from her desk.” As much as Billy wanted to make love to her, his mind continued to wander to the doctor at the hospital. The whole staff thing just didn’t make sense. Could it be he wasn’t paying attention

Tuesday Tales – Pie

Welcome to this weeks Tuesday Tales. I'd like to thank everyone who stops by to read the adventure of Billy and Alexandra. Don't forget to checkout the other great tales at: Tuesday Tales . I'd also like to take a few minutes to mourn the loss of Donna Summer and Robin Gibbs. They were icons in the music world, especially during the disco era. They will be missed terribly, but will forever remain in my heart, being a constant reminder of all the happy memories in my life. Billy got off the elevator with an extra large cup of coffee and a slice of key lime pie. He had arrived a little too late to the cafeteria to get some real food. A nice quarter-pound hamburger with cheese would definitely hit the spot, but he wasn’t going to leave the hospital. He walked into the tiny waiting room and sat on the chair facing Alexandra’s room. As he sipped his coffee, an eerie feeling came over him. Something wasn’t right. Billy walked into the corridor and walked to the nurse’s st

Tuesday Tales - Picture Prompt - Central Park Archway

I'd like to thank everyone who stops by my little corner on the web to read my Tuesday Tales. I am thrilled to see everyone coming back each week to read my story about Billy and Alexandra. Their journey will continue next week. This week, the moment I saw the picture prompt, I knew exactly what I was going to do. I wanted to give you a background of the hero, Drake Dente from my debut novel Roses. This scene, isn't in the book. Drake leaned against the wall in the arched stone walkway. Living across the street from Central Park had always been one of his dreams since he was a young lad growing up in Liverpool, London. Those were the days when his family lived in a one bedroom flat, stone broke, sharing a hamburger and a dream. In the beginning he was reluctant to leave. Just the thought of leaving his lads behind and going to a new country where he would stand out in the crowd with his heavy British accent scared him half to death. He did stand out in the crowd and was

Tuesday Tales - Finger

Tuesday Tales - Finger Billy slid the card back into the envelope. Within seconds, he stood at her side. Alexandra opened and closed her eyes. She seemed to be having a hard time keeping them open. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he waited until her eyes opened wide and her lips curled at the side. “How are you feeling?” Billy asked, resting his hand over hers. “I’m sure better than you look.” Alexandra stiffened her legs and let out a sigh. “I want to go home.” “I know you do. We just have to wait for the doctor to come in. I think he wants to keep you for another day or two,” Billy said, pushing the one strand of hair off her face. “Are you all right?” Alexandra asked, squeezing his hand. “Yes. But believe me, I would trade places with you any day. I hate to see you like this. You should have never gotten shot.” “I was protecting you,” she said, a smile appearing on her lips. Billy’s eyes bulged wide open, and he lifted both his hands and covered his face. Now
