Six
Sentence Sunday #2
Today
my Six Sentence Sunday comes from Human
Touch, a sci-fi set thousands of years in the future where sex between
humans is believed to be an impossibility. This story spans almost 100 years
and touches three families as they discover their own sexuality and truth.
Set Up:
It’s
2525, Miles and Jules Clark, non-sexually active spouses, are searching through
an office in an abandoned building on the SPAR compound for contraband believed to be destroyed in 500 years earlier.
My Six:
“Look Jules,
look at what our ancestors were like,” Miles flipped open a brown covered book
to a picture of a couple fondling each other. “They’re just like we are, trying
to learn about each other.”
Jules intensely studied the black and
white sketch of a woman with her hand wrapped around a man’s penis. Miles
caught his breath as he felt her hand glide over his crotch, her wide-eyed gaze
never leaving the page. He caressed the inside of her thigh in return, his cock
pulsing in response to both mind and physical stimulation. Whatever had sparked
this boldness was beyond him, but he wasn’t about to stop her in mid-stream now.

ReplyDeleteWell...let's just say there's a lot of something going on.
DeleteI'm curious about what led to the picture viewing.

DeleteThere's a lot of speculative truth to your premise and what a great set up for a novel! I think they have a lot of...self-discovery yet to come. Interesting six today!
ReplyDeleteNo kidding! And you are right, lots of things to discover.
