I unpacked our late supper: crackers, brie cheese and smoked sausage slices, along with chocolate-covered strawberries, raspberries and of course, the bottle of wine.

ending line:
And I cried.

darling:
The moon rose higher as we made love, the river a counterpoint to the plaintive songs of the whippoorwills and our own intimate sounds. Time had fallen away, lost in the fog, and we were the center of our own universe.

It's a weird, violent little tale. I really liked the prompt and the way it came out. There may be more on this, depending on stuff. :D

Yes, I'll say more later.

But I FINISHED A SHORT STORY!!!!

It seemed like a good idea at the time.

ending line:
The moon drenched the entire area in a pale light as the spray from the river and the fog intertwined incestuously around us.

Pretty soon, I heard another sound rising on the breeze. The Pensive River was running high and fast, thanks to the wet spring we'd had, and I could hear it laughing as it rushed along its bed. Weeping willows lined the banks, and in the moonlight, I could almost see the faeries my father had told me stories of riding their horses through the rills of foam. A magical night, this one. Almost anything could happen.
