"Stolen"

by Lucy Christopher

You saw me before I saw you.

A girl: Gemma, at the airport, on her way to a family vacation.

You had that look in your eyes.

A guy: Ty, rugged, tan, too old, oddly familiar, eyes blue as ice.

Like you wanted me.

She steps away. For just a second. He pays for her drink. And  drugs it.

Wanted me for a long time.

He takes her, before she even knows what's happening. To sand and heat. To emptiness and isolation. To nowhere. And expects her to love him.

Meetings and "The Hunger games"

Our next meeting is Oct. 26th at 12:45 in the library. Come for bagels, prizes and games.
