Too Pretty To Be A Boy -2- Mr. Lajien
Ch.2I sat beside my mom in the car, and an awkward silence filled the air. I really didn’t know what to talk about, but I could tell that, like always, Mom was trying her best.“So, what’s bothering you? I can tell there’s something in your mind,” my mom said, her eyes on the road, catching...
Another Country -7-
I hadn’t known how Mom would react to my showing her my chest, purple nurples and all. “Hm,” she said flatly. “I bet that did hurt.”I glanced down. The left one still ached and might be turning red, if not exactly purple. I nodded and pulled my shirt back down. What did she think she had s...
Pete's Vagina -63- Locker Room
The crispness in the air said winter was not too far off, and I thought again about Christmas and what I might get for Lee. And Jake, too. School always seemed oddly quiet this early in the morning, with the eastern sky painted gold and the usual west wind bringing the smell of evergreens off the mo...
Fatboy -3- Slutch
Everyone forgot about Slutch. "Story a' my life," the man muttered after zipping himself up. He'd walked out to the entrance of the small, graveled parking lot and pissed on the signpost that held up the crudely painted directions, "Turn here - Dance - Cafe - Pool." It was a ...
Curse of the Fountain -10- by Melanie Brown
The Fountain of YouthByMelanie BrownCopyright © 2025Part 10“Cheerleader? Really? When did you try out?” asked Mom, continuing the conversation as we walked into the house.I frowned and crossed my arms. “I didn’t. I’m a conscript.”Mom sat on the couch next to me and put her arm around my...
Girlery -16- Princess Phil
Phil blamed the translator, who had told him that the scroll contained a spell for discovering for oneself a girlfriend of perfection. How was he to know 'discover for' and 'transform into' were the same in ancient Akkadian? But since 'Girlfriend of Perfection' should have re...
Too Pretty To Be A Boy -1- by Mr. Lajien
“Are you sure you want to do this?” My dad asked me for the fifteenth time already. I can’t blame him, though. I wasn’t very sure of my decision, but I had to do this. I have had enough of Dicky and Peter. My asshole, older half-brothers, they hate my guts. I don’t even know what I have ev...
Another Country -6-
I came at our house the back way through the alley, but Mom was there, chopping at some weeds with a long-handled hoe. The back gate made of pigwire stood wide open. At least I didn’t have to get off my bike to open it.“Bobby,” she said as I rolled past her. “Grab the garden rake and help me...

Fatboy and the Nineball -2- Deputy Dan

Dawning: A BCTS Story Challenge
The darkness never changes, but sometimes it smells different. After 400 years, whether my eyes are open or closed matters because it’s how I communicate. One if by land, two if I see….I can’t really smell anything anymore; all I have is memories. The scent of early morning rain on the cool de...

Melanie BrownCopyright © 2024Part 8“Where’s Aunt Bea?” exclaimed Riley when she bounded through the door.Looking up from the pot I was stirring, I said calmly, “She had to return to the bowels of Hell.” I went back to stirring. Mom is insisting I help with dinner.As Billy shut the door be...

Curse of the Fountain -7- by Melanie Brown
“I’m serious, Bea.”Beatrice looked at my curlers and laughed. “You look serious.”I stood up and shouted, “Will you forget the fucking curlers? If you had properly notified us of your coming, this would have been taken care of before you arrived. And of course, I found the Fountain! How d...

Double Down - Masks 25 - by Stickmaker

Curse of the Fountain -6- by Melanie Brown
Copyright © 2024Part 6I stretched out luxuriously in bed. It’s Sunday, and no shopping expeditions are planned. I can just relax. I plan to stay in bed until noon. That was the plan until I smelled bacon frying. Does Mom ever sleep?Mom stuck her head in our bedroom door. “Wakey wakey. Eggs and ...
Pete's Vagina -62- Rotisserie League
Pete’s Vagina62. Fantasy LeagueI fell asleep eventually. After my experience with Megan, I knew what sort of things would get my motor running without involving anything too icky, but I didn’t have enough gas in the tank to do any real self-exploration.I dreamed, waking up several times to try ...

Another Country -5-
I got onto Aviation Boulevard and followed it out to the side street where we lived in a tract full of ranch-style homes built in the 1950s. The lots were bigger than more modern areas of town, with deep backyards and detached garages.It was barely noon, and Mom wouldn’t expect me home for hours. ...

Another Country -4-
I made it to the restrooms in the center of the park, but no one had followed me. It wasn’t that long of a run but I stood there, just inside, gasping like I had finished a half-marathon and staring at my reflection in the stainless steel mirror.My face was flushed but pale around my mouth. I coul...

Another Country -3-
When I reached the basketball courts in the park, Josh was already there, playing Horse all by himself. He had his own newer ball and my old worn one lay against the pole holding the basket up. He took a shot, and the ball went cleanly through the hoop.If there had been a net, it would have made tha...
Curse of the Sacred Fountain -2- by Melanie Brown
Melanie BrownCopyright © 2024Part 2I felt myself slowly growing conscious. It wasn’t so much waking from a long sleep as it was just a growing awareness. I slowly started to notice things, like the too-bright lights above me. Lying in an uncomfortable bed. Realizing I must be in a hospital becaus...
Another Country -2-
I took a walk around the downtown area. I went as far north as the bike shop and browsed the shiny metal and black rubber of the bikes. There was a five-speed that I just might be able to afford if I got the money I was expecting for my birthday in three months. It was red with a white leather seat ...

Melanie BrownCopyright © 2024Part 1“Uncle Neil. I think it’s time to pull the plug on your expedition,” complained my insufferable niece Denise. “You can’t find something that never existed.”“Nonsense!” I asserted. “I feel we’re very close. I was heartened by the discovery of th...
