Finally, Christina had everything she needed from the shops. It was
a ridiculously menial chore, but it had to be done. Moving outside the
local supermarket, Christina rolled her trolley slowly towards her hatchback,
and reached into her pocket to fetch her car keys, so she could open the
boot. In the parking bay next to her, she spotted a familiar sight. It
was Melanie’s Land Rover, towering above the rest of the cars. Soon enough,
Christina spotted her friend moving towards her, carrying two paper bags
under her arms. Just before Mel reached her car, the bags split, depositing
the contents all over the car park.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>The Game - Part 2</title><link>/stories/2004/09/18/the-game-part-2/</link><pubDate>Sat, 18 Sep 2004 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2004/09/18/the-game-part-2/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;(story continues from &lt;a href="the_game.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Game&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;

The game had become a lot more serious than Jeremy and Megan’s initial
gambit. Jeremy had been busy…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One week after their first meeting – Megan found herself in one hell
of a predicament. She was wearing nothing but her own sweat glistening
gently in the moonlight. Her feet remained unbound – but her knees were
cinched tightly together with a simple length of clothesline. Her wrists
and elbows were bound firmly, and were raised high above her back. Megan’s
delicate hands were attached to one of the ceiling rafters, and she was
going nowhere – on strapado.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>The Game</title><link>/stories/1/01/01/the-game/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/1/01/01/the-game/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Game&lt;/strong&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;The Game&lt;/strong&gt;
 
Suburbia is a dreadfully dull place. Megan Kellis made it a little
less so. The new next-door neighbour, who was so beautiful it physically
hurt to look at her. Of course, I couldn’t stop doing so.  I had been
living on the same street for five years now, ever since completing my
doctorate at the Uni. I hooked a nice steady, post-doc job, and work was
progressing nicely. Of course, as is always the way, there was something
missing. I hoped that Megan might fill this mysterious void. She had moved
in last week, and this was the first time I had seen her in the back garden.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
