"Anticipation"

* Oh fiddlesticks! This is my SSC 21 entry *

Jackie wasn’t sure how she’d managed to get herself into this situation or why she hadn’t backed out earlier. When Phil had first suggested it she had been excited but while waiting for this moment the excitement had been replaced with trepidation.

Nervously, with legs slightly apart, she flexed her ankles and made small circles in the air with her bare feet. Every sense was heightened; scents were easy to identify, colours were brighter than usual. A slight breeze had sprung up, tousling her hair and making goosebumps visible on her bare arms and legs.

Phil grinned at her and asked “Are you ready for this?”

“Of course I am” she replied before looking away from him.

The trepidation she’d felt had been replaced with anticipation, a fluttering sensation in the pit of her stomach. Hurry up, she thought, oh please hurry up. What was taking so long?

No sooner had this thought passed through her head when the switch was hit and pleasure raced thought her body. She threw her head back, screwed up her eyes, and screamed with unadulterated joy as she headed into heaven. Jackie returned to the earth and after just a few gentle bounces she opened her eyes again. Then she grabbed Phil by the hand.

Laughingly she shouted “Again, we have to do it again!”

“What? Now?” asked Phil. He hadn’t anticipated this. He wasn’t sure that he was ready to go again.

“Yes” said Jackie “now!”

As soon as the safety harness had been removed she collected her shoes and raced to the ticket office. It didn’t matter how long the queue was or how queasy Phil felt she was definitely going back on that ride.

Soz, I thought after 21 times you might be able to remember what title to put on it.


Well written and all, but you're not working with much.

The "it's sex, wait. no it isn't" thing has been done to death. Leave it in it's unmarked grave, please. It's a waste of your well of talent.

...?

I don't quite know what to say other then, sorry, I'm taken :D

...but it was you who gave me the idea!

I knew you'd make it dirty. Harlot.

It was a nice little bit and well written, but I'm guessing you didn't want to win again :D

Thanks for the comments :D

Oo, you little tease

I heard a joke once about a girl, a boy, a rollercoaster and the Big One - but I can't remember how it goes.
