Rainbow Snippets June 3-4

Hope you’ve had a wonderful day, so far. πŸ™‚

Here’s a snippet from “Unexpected Journey” published by MLR Press. John (first person) is drunk and a tad…amorous.

β€œDo you know you’re beautiful?” I said, my words slurring. I reached out to touch his nose and almost poked him in the eye. “I want to kiss you all the time.”

Hollis raised an eyebrow. β€œThat so? You know you’re tipsy, right?”

β€œYeah, I gueth, uh, guess so.” I was acting like a lovesick fool, but I couldn’t help it. β€œDo you have a-a boyfriend?”

β€œNot at the moment.” He smiled. β€œAre you applying for the position?”

β€œI wish I could, b-but I’m justh-just this old guy with no job. I have nothing to o-offer.” And then I belched, to seal the deal.

Classy.
