A stranger’s green eyes glanced in my direction. I pressed the elevator button, diamond-encrusted wedding set throwing sparks. After depressing another button, his hand brushed mine.
Then, my tongue slipped past his lips.
This 33 word flash fiction was written for Trifextra Week 65: use a hyphenated compound modifier.
Inspired by “What Would Happen” by Meredith Brooks.
Reblogged this on The Cheese Whines and commented:
So well written. And yet, the despair of infidelity. Love–a game I gave up on long ago.
Well the heck with introducing yourself, just get busy.
Exactly! Sometimes, introductions are just unnecessary. 😉
This is a very hot story. I wish you had another 33 words! 🙂

Goodness! Is it hot in here or what? Love your choice of compound modifier!

Sometimes the sparks just fly…
Um…wow! Thank goodness I don’t make eye contact with strangers in elevators 🙂
Good plan. 🙂
I am going to have to watch out for strangers in elevators!
Always!! 😉
Ha, whew! Look out I guess, haha. Loved the line about the diamonds throwing sparks (and the totally unexpected follow up). Nice
Thanks! There were sparks galore in that elevator!! 😉
Very good. I would have enjoyed reading the entire story, but I can imagine!
