Alphabet Story

batyler65

Adam looked out over the sea of churning humanity in the street beneath his balcony.

Below him the crush of people might be milling about aimlessly, but his heart knew only one purpose.

Counting back from a hundred, he heard the name Laura over and over in his head...

Ding dong.

Evan was at the door. Oh, crap!

"Forget it, Evan," Adam shouted. "I'm not letting you back in!"

"Good! I didn't want to come in. I'm only here to return your...

Hot Babes magazine. But if you don't want it...

I'll just give it to Justine to cut up for scrap."

"Justine?! Oh god, no! She thinks I'm gay--you can't blow my cover like that!"

"Keep refusing to let me in and it's blown, bro!"

"Laura will be here in a minute. I can't let you in now. I'm naked."

"Maybe you'd like Laura to see what kind of reading material you really keep around the house--instead of all those Steinem treatises and Susan Faludi feminist tomes you leave laying around just to impress her!"

"Nooo! Hold on a minute. I'm coming."

"Oh," said Evan when Adam answered the door and saw not one, but two people standing outside. "Did I forget to mention that Laura was with me? Oops!"

Poor Adam!

Quite a sticky situation he managed to land himself in.

Realizing there was nothing he could do about it now, Adam ran a hand through is unkempt hair, and tried not to look so naked.

"So!" Laura chirped. "What were you doing waiting for me in only your birthday suit?"

Suddenly he sensed that the dose of Viagra he had taken in anticipation of Laura's visit had taken effect.

"That's impressive!" Adam purred.

Until then, he had never realized how many of the people who might be passing beneath an urban balcony at a random moment during rush hour would happen to have brought binoculars.

Viagra had a strange way of affecting one's ego. Suddenly he felt very confident and grinned at Laura. Evan'd have to wait.

"'Xactly what you're going to do with that thing pointing at me?" Laura asked as Adam slammed the door shut.

"You really have to ask?" said Adam, grinning wickedly.

Zephyr-like breezes swirled around as Laura's clothing dropped to the floor, and here on the balcony of their apartment, we will leave our two protagonists and go on to bigger and better things.
