Friday Fictioneers is a weekly 100 word flash fiction challenge hosted by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields. The following photo is
this weeks PHOTO PROMPT, a cool picture for hot days, depending on your side of the
globe. Rochelle asks where does it take you? Tell us in a hundred words or less.
FIRST DATE
Chocolate World's winter holiday display of lights, hot cocoa
and fresh kettle corn, was a date that rivaled all previous first dates. I
never felt the cold, not with my hand in yours, or your arms holding me close
during the monorail ride.
Then, before the date ended and with a crowd around us, you
got down on one knee and pulled out an engagement ring.
I shook my head, tried to stop the madness, but you persisted.
I whispered, "No! Not on our first date," and pleaded for understanding, right before your knife pierced my heart.
