Flash Fiction Friday #3 - Be-Long

Woohoo! It's my third Flash Fiction Friday with the Flashers writing group. Enjoy! ;)

Flash Fiction Friday - Writing challenge based on a picture prompt. One picture to inspire one hundred words (no more, no less).


~Be-Long~


“You don't belong here.” Fingertips touched mine, lips brushing my hand. Breath rattled in my chest and my heart squeezed painfully. Warmth enveloped coldness.

Every muscle burned in remembrance, anguished. “I belong with you.”

“Not like this.” He released, but I held on.

“I can feel you.” Climbing up, I scrambled to reclaim him.

“This can't go on.” He shook his head, coming closer. “Let me go.”

“How?” My foot hesitated.

“Get off the ledge. Live,” he ordered.

“I'm still with you." He reached up “Here,” touched my heart, pushed.

How very sad. I wanted them together. Not for one to push the other away. I like happy endings.

This very interesting Luna. I'm wondering what is going on. There are many ideas. Is his lover 'really' on a ledge and was literally pushed off...or was it metaphorical. :ponders:

Awww, he pushed him away. It's like a sad love story. No matter how much he pushes, his lover will always love him. *sob*

Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments and thoughts! I did take this in an otherworldly direction, for anyone who was wondering. I could share a bit more about the scenario, if you'd like.

Now, I'm off to finish commenting on all of yours. Again, I'm amazed at how many boundless interpretations there are for one picture! :)
