I spent ages searching for the right place. She was so beautiful; she deserved something perfect for our first home together. It would be the place where we finally got to know each other properly and so it had to be just right. I wanted to her feel loved, safe and secure there with me and I wanted her to know that she was my whole world. I made her wait while I looked but she was a good girl and patient getting on with her everyday life while I planned everything for us. I loved her so much that I couldn’t wait for us to really be together but I took my time and in the end it paid off as I found the perfect home for us to share.
I moved in first. I didn’t want to share it with her until I was really ready. It needed to be perfect for my perfect girl but when the time was right I went and collected her after work and bought her home with me. It was the most exciting day of my life. She made me so happy and now I was going to spend the rest of my days making her happy in return. My beautiful girl; I had waited so long to be with her and now finally our time had arrived and she would never be without me again.

For October Kayla has declared it spooky, creepy horror month. My favourite! And Thank you to Jo’s brilliant image this week for inspiring this menacing little piece.

I love the way that the image makes your writing take on a different meaning. Definitely creepy and works really well with the prompt.
The photo gives it the sinister edge. Sweet until you look and realize what’s really going on. Well done.
You painted the picture so well – I am scared for her x
Oh this is so sinister, the words are so sweet and loving, then the image screams danger! I love it, and would love a part 2! X
Yeah this sounds like stalker love, the giver is convinced what he’s doing is OK but the reader can tell all is not well. What a great spooky tale and an evocative, chilling picture.
Definitely sinister and spooky!
At first I’m like, “Ohhh, kinky!” and then I’m like, “Ohhh, creepy!” Loving this!
Oooh, atmospheric photo and writing. Well done!
