Welcome to Six Sentence Sunday! This week I'm offering up another six sentences from my new time-travel romance, The Whisper of Time. Gwynn goes to brush her teeth to find her neighbor, Slate, in her bathroom:
Trouble was, I’d tossed and turned for half the night. The quiet had driven me to distraction and I kept thinking about Kyle and how angry I was with him- which did not make for a restful sleep. I got up groggy at five-thirty, did a few Miss-Kitty-worthy yoga stretches, threw on sweats and a t-shirt, and stumbled down the stairs. I figured I’d run some water over my face, brush my teeth, grab some coffee and, with a little luck, I could still beat Slate to the milking shed.
I opened the bathroom door just as Slate Peck was climbing out of the claw foot tub. I slammed the door shut.

Yes, yes she did!
DeleteI think there are entirely too few bathroom scenes in books. But maybe 5 in my current wip is too much.
ReplyDeleteLove yours.
Thanks Lana. I agree, nothing says I love you like a good bathroom scene :)
Deletelol...very presumptuous!
ReplyDeleteTrue :)
DeleteNot sure whether that's good or bad timing? Nice six, Ute.
ReplyDeleteHmm... I don't think Gwynn's sure, either Elin :)
DeleteVery nice- now I'm curious what happens next.
ReplyDeleteThanks Summer. I'm not telling.
DeleteVery interesting... though she could still be asleep and dreaming she's seeing him. :p
ReplyDeleteHmm, might be. But no. :)
