55 Flash Fiction Friday #3: "Concurrence"


"If what you want, or what you need, is promises in the dark", he said, "I'm not your guy."
"No", she smiled, "not promises. Just something solid I can get a grip on that won't dissolve as soon as I touch it."
Pulling her to him he murmured into her hair, "Is this solid enough?"
M6Friday: 55FlashFiction Graciously hosted by G-Man.
Note: Sometimes the lines get blurred between stories. That's why the truth is so much easier.
This is related to last week's 55, even if the relation is perhaps a bit oblique.

Hot? Really?? Or are you guys teasing me for my romance-novelesque tendencies... (oh go ahead... I can take it.)

And I knew I'd heard that "Rawr" somewhere before!

hahaha You caught me! That Rawr was a smarmoofus-ism.

Great job!

Mona said...

I like the pun on the word Solid. Solid as stable, concrete, real...

Then again, I like the imagery, which gives a passionate content to the form.

Its so Mojo a 55ve :D

( I had no idea about what Mojo meant until a Mr. Knowitall told me...)

Mojo said...

@Signgurl: Glad you enjoyed it. tune in next week when we hear "her" say...

@Mona: Actually there are several definitions of the word Mojo, but I guess several (maybe all) of them might apply here.
