Today is Six Sentence Sunday, where both published and non-published writers share six sentences from their work. I've posted an excerpt from my novel LIFE ON THE EDGE. Emily and Sergei are having coffee, and Emily is still struggling with her feelings.
Sergei grinned and laid his arm across the chair
next to his. I laughed and soaked in the positive energy
between us.
As I sipped my coffee, I watched Sergei rest his hand on the table beside his mug. What would happen if I reached out and put my hand on his? Let
my fingertips caress the smooth skin, the soft brush of hair just below his
watch. Would the earth stop turning?
Thanks for stopping by! To read Six Sentence Sunday from other writers or to sign up, visit the Six Sunday site here.
Lovely six. Well, what's the answer. LOL
ReplyDeleteYes, I think it would and now I need the answer!! Great six!
ReplyDeleteOh great moment! Those are always so agonizing (for me anyway)
ReplyDeleteLove the tension building.
ReplyDeleteHmm...I wonder what would happen :) I have a pretty good idea. Nice six :)
ReplyDeleteGood question, and packed with emotion
ReplyDeleteI love the romantic tension building. I think most people have felt this way at the start of a new relationship, or when with someone who might turn into a partner.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely visual of Sergei. Touch him! Touch him! Great six.
ReplyDeleteI think she should try it and find out. :-)
