The typical slow song music starts. Vicky wants to roll her eyes at all the awkward couples. If they can’t handle a dance, how would they survive anything else?
It seemed she was the only one not dancing at this wedding. Her friend’s family must really love it because they have not left the floor since the music first began.
“Take my hand,” Bobby commanded, having appeared in front of her with a...
“Wait up!”
I let out a deep sigh, “And, prey, do tell why on earth you think I would do that?” I said the words confidently, turning around to face him. “Well, I didn’t but look there you’ve stopped, haven’t you?” I hadn’t even noticed. I kept walking.
“Look, I know you hate me, but come _on_, it’s not like there’s much we can do. I mean, you heard what he said: ‘no one crosses the border alone’ ...
“Rude coming from you,” he muttered though he seemed distracted.
“Take my dang hand or you can dangle from the side of this building for a few hours while I go save everyone else’s butts.” This was not the time to argue but Mira had to much rage stored up.

Jane was cheap. Plain and simple fact, Jane was passing monkfish off as lobster, sneaking your suitcase out of the hotel when you couldn’t pay the bill, drawing a line on your legs to pass for silk stockings.

I hung off the edge of the cliff, looking up at the man I loved. We were on a beautiful hike up north, a day he had planned. The wind had a gorgeous, slow breeze and the birds were active. I thought he might propose. Instead, when we were looking over the edge at the valley below, he pushed me.
I know he did. I felt it, I saw the look in his eyes, and I would have been dead if I hadn’t turned at...
“Take my hand!”
“No way!”
“I’m not asking you to marry me, I’m trying to save your life!”
It’s funny how circumstances like this makes you laugh in the last moments in your life. You’d think I was trying to save a rich girl from her woe-filled worries attempting to take her life off the butt-end of the world famous unsinkable iron ship but alas, I have duties as a preacher of Christ, to give hope...
We went on a swim trip, to the pond in the woods
With our bathing suit, and sneakers and our hoods
There was about six of us,going into the old VW bug
Not bringing the dog with us, giving him a loving hug
The day was really sunny, without any rain or even snow
How did we know that this day, would make us say ‘oh no’
The 73 bug made it through the road trails, pond here we come
We all excitedly ...
Fern's legs grew weak as she sprinted alongside Merras, the seething minotaur in close pursuit. They weaved in and out of the thick maze of towering trees and overgrown brush, leaping over roots jutting from the moss covered soil beneath them. The forest seemed to attempt mutiny, once their friend, yet now threatening to hand them over to their enemy.
Merras caught his foot on a rock and tripped...
**Take my hand and you shall be safe.**
_I do not wish to do so mister._
**Take my hand let’s run away.**
_Your offer holds no charm to me._
**Take my hand or we shall be banished.**
_Maybe I do prefer to be banished elsewhere._
**Take my hand and let’s run to my hometown.**
_But I don’t fancy a man of royalty._
**Take my hand! I'm not asking for your hand in marriage, I'm trying to get us...
