Great writing Mikey. This started out so tender my thought was "this Dude know women" then the clever way of unloading the pest and my thought was, "Wow! that's a come-on I never encountered." Then everything went so dark so fast. Great writing.

    I'm so pleased you liked this. That was exactly the effect I was going for. I needed a little novel break. It seemed easy to write something short now! Thank you so much! Love all the stars!! mikey

WOW,Mikey, you do have a evil shadow lurking behind your gentle demeanor. Waiting, patiently waiting, to pounce on your unsuspecting lady-friend.

    A good thing I'm too lazy to leave my room and computer! Another benefit of FanStory addiction, it keeps the deranged off the streets. So delighted you enjoyed. Thanks for all the stars!! mikey

Mikey, indeed, the others who entered dodged a bulls eye shot from your pen. This is creepy and describes a psychopath in engaging terms. Creative, unique, and captivating. Well done. my friend. :0 GracieAnn

    Hi. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed this. My wife read this and has been looking at me funny. The more I tell her "I made it up" the more uneasy she gets!! Thank you so much. mikey

A lucky break for them indeed :) This is well written and Lance's actions are described very well. (And his dodgy intentions). Good job.

Excellent portrait of a psychopath whose urge to murder is triggered by fear. Now see, this is the very reason I don't trust good-looking charming men. :-)

Oh, come on Michael! It isn't that bad! Actually, I rather enjoyed the suspense that you manage to build as the story progresses. I feel sorry for Jerry...and end up feeling pity for Maria. You bastard! Yep! You evoked an emotion, alright. Therefore your little yarn is a success. Well done. Anthony.

I thought that this was a very creepy little story. I enjoyed it so much that I read it several times. I might like to see this story as a longer work. Lance is quite a character.

    That's a good idea. Perhaps I'll do a longer piece with him. What a great review. I appreciate it. Six stars too! Thank you very much. Sorry to be late in replying, mikey

Too bad you missed the prompt. This had a great chance. Everything implied but chilling and terrifying nonetheless. Great character development. The fact that the characters were so ordinary added to the chills. Excellent!! NG
