(Author’s note: I know I’ve only been doing FF every other week for a while. Part of the reason is because I have exercise on Wednesdays, and that really kills my energy. I am in the process of switching my schedule around, and hoping that we can get things moving for December. I should be back weekly in no time. Here’s this week’s fictioneers: )

Wonderful Tonight
by Miles H. Rost
She flopped.
Onto the couch she went, her minty scrubs stained with sweat. Her black hair was mussed, and little strands fell in front of her face.
“Tough day?”
“Yeah, the worst.”
“You gotta work tomorrow?”
“Thankfully no. I’ve worked 13 days straight, they gave me two days to rest up for the next 7 day run.”
“How long would it take you to get cleaned up?”
Blowing strands from her face, she looked at him quizzically.
“10 minutes, meaning 35. why?”
He chuckled.
“My beautiful nurse, would dinner and dancing do for the night?”
Her eyes lit up.
“Sweetie, you are so wonderful!”
Another fascinating and different take on the photo prompt. Enjoyed reading this very much!

Well, I saw the hard work being done, and I think a lot about how hard people work and not getting time to do the great things they want to do. And it just went from there.
This is sweet, Miles. You painted a great scene here. Great job.

Thanks, Blogfather! 😀
Thats love! Go out and get em!!
Yesh! He understands!
Who can miss a good dinner and dance afterwards, no matter how tiring was the day?
For many people in today’s culture, a lot. For many immediate needs come first, and if it’s rest…they usually tune everything else out. It’s one reason why I sometimes have to just take a sick day: If I don’t have a day to just catch up and rest, I’ll be wore out to a bad point.
True love – simply delightful
