Ficlets

Every Single Time

Out of town for the next month! Jameson almost jumped out of his skin! He couldn’t believe his ears. They were obviously not functioning properly. He willed himself to dial her number again and again, but received the same stunning news every single time.

Prandi had skipped town without so much as a word. She seemed to overreact a little bit when he mentioned Sassy’s revelation to her, but Jameson thought she was just a little jealous, not upset enough to leave town without saying goodbye to him.

Why was I so stupid? Why did I tell her Sassy wanted me to get back together with Becca?

Jameson ran to his Vespa and shot down the street, hoping to get to Prandi’s dorm before she left town.

Maybe she’s still packing.

When he heard the siren, he pulled over and slammed his helmet on the ground in frustration.

Turns out some police officers take that as a sign of aggression.

Before Jameson had time to apologize, an exuberant Officer Milo had unsheathed Lu and prepared her for her maiden voyage.
