as reply to He Heard
The police arrived roughly 20 minutes later. Maybe even a little sooner. Around 18 minutes if Blake had to guess.
The time went by pretty slow. All he thought about was the incident. Replayed it in his head. By the time the cops arrived he was ready to say what happened.
"So...

The man took a deep sigh and walked into his room. He was finally here. After weeks of listening to that awful but catchy tune on the radio while seated at a gas station out in the middle of nowhere. He had come to the source of the sound. By...

couldn't hear

She saw everything. And wrote it down. Not everything but the important things. Pen on paper. Never typed. She didn't trust computers. Not like she thought someone was spying on them. She didn't trust that the things she wrote into a computer would be there forΒ

the kid is worried
as reply to Just Wait
The next morning felt like a Stephen King novel. White mist so thick you could barely see more than ten yards in front of you. He thought about his football coach. The running back one. "YOU DON'T NEED TO SEE ANY FURTHER THAN FIVE YARDS IN FRONT OF YOU WHEN...

what blake needed
as reply to Opened the Window
There was a knock on the door. It frightened him. He put the cigarette out. Looked through the peep hole. It was the clean shaven kid who was at the bar earlier.
"Sorry sir. You can't smoke here."
Blake looked confused. "Oh of course."
"I mean. I'm cool with it. But Just the...

what you're looking for
as reply to Clean Shaven
"What do you think that was about?" Blake was less curious about the two guys who had gotten into a scuffle. More interested in seeing how Imogen responded. To see what her relationship with the guy from the hotel was like.
"I don't know." her hand was closer to her purse...

ready for some whiskey?
as reply to Amused Her
Blake Baxter was his name. The name rolled off her tongue. Blake Baxter.
The next day they went to the restaurant together. Blake looked forward to showing her the chicken. But of course it wasn't chicken tuesday anymore. He looked sad but cheered up quick when the waiter announced that it...

blake is steve now
as reply to Saw Her
Β In her hand was a pistol.
All that good feeling of salt, fat, and protein was gone now. He tried to hold his piss in.
"You following me?"
"No!"
He recognized her. She was the girl from theΒ gas station .
"Fancy seeing you here. Don't tell me you and I happened to arrive here...

turn
as reply to A towel
He never made it to the water. With the towel in hand the smell of roasted chicken allured him to the boardwalk restaurant.Just by the smell he could tell that the skin was perfectly seared. He hadn't eaten a decent meal in months. The swim could wait.
At the restaurant quiet...

finally resting
as reply to All Set
It was so hot. But the breeze from the sea cooled him down. Made the heat something pleasant. Like a sauna.
After putting his stuff down he sat on the bed and looked out to the sea. It was hard to believe that he was here. For weeks he had seen...
