Julie, this is excellent!
I can't believe that you actually thought you'd get hate-mail after posting an angsty yet wonderfully WAFFy short story. We're the "perfect" audience.
Lots of wonderful passages have been quoted. I loved this too...
She must’ve noticed that long pause, because she continued. “And if you want to say that I was only on the rebound, and that those feelings weren’t real – Clark, when I was walking down the aisle I thought of you. When I was getting ready for the wedding I thought of you. It scared me, but I couldn’t help it.” Her voice choked up slightly before she finished.
He grinned. He couldn’t help but grin.
“Clark, you find that funny?” she asked, sounding disgusted.
Funny? She thought he found it funny? He found it wonderful. Wonderful wasn’t even adequate... amazing, fantastic, brilliant, incredible...
He would have kissed her again, had she been a bit closer.
Very very nice.
Kathy
