The sheets, discolored from sweat, clung to him as he tried to escape the spinning room. His arm shackled by the thrashing as the 700 thread count bastard wrapped itself around his wrist. With a final, forceful tug, he freed himself from the bed only to introduce his knee to the nightstand. “Fuck!” His hand slammed upon his mouth trying to muffle the scream. His lip smashed so hard against his teeth that he could taste blood. Another muffled curse escaped his lips as he stood in the dark bedroom, frozen with fear. In the blackness he could hear the toilet paper roll, and knew he was running out of time. Desperate and sweating, his heart sped up as he scurried along the carpet. Finally, he could feel the denim he was so anxious to remove just a few short hours earlier.

He ran out of the apartment as fast as he could, escaping onto the street below, cradling his shoes and shirt in his arms. “Taxi!” 2008-05-19T00:42:33Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/29856 <p>Cool stuff. How many times have we all been in those particular shoes? The &#8220;chew your arm off&#8221; stage of a one-night stand&#8230;</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/29856?basename=63261 2008-05-19T00:42:33Z JLaughter http://ficlets.com/authors/jlaughter <p>Thanks Ridcully. I enjoyed this little scene quite a bit and had a good time writing it. I&#8217;m glad that you enjoyed it as well.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/29856?basename=62549 2008-05-15T20:03:24Z John Perkins http://ficlets.com/authors/johnperkins21 <p>I just found this, and really enjoyed it. What a vivid picture you paint!</p> <p>I really like how the banging into things gets explained by a combination of still being drunk and being in someone else&#8217;s apartment</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/29856?basename=62546 2008-05-15T19:53:01Z Ridcully Calvert http://ficlets.com/authors/user_joon <p>Mature? I wasn&#8217;t really sure. There&#8217;s only one curse word, and the theme is only a little risque. I didn&#8217;t think it warranted a mature rating, but I&#8217;m new. If I get another comment about it, I&#8217;ll change it.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/29856?basename=61066 2008-05-08T22:49:47Z John Perkins http://ficlets.com/authors/johnperkins21 <p>interesting, disjointed, confusing and should have been marked mature.<br />I did however enjoy reading it.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/29856?basename=61064 2008-05-08T22:41:41Z SKermitgorf http://ficlets.com/authors/kermitgorf
