She could tell she’d had too much to drink, because she’d never be doing this otherwise–running her foot up the inside of a stranger’s leg on the train. He said nothing, but his smile was inviting. She shifted in her seat, subtly hiking her dress up just enough to “accidentally” expose herself when she uncrossed her legs.
She was nervously pleased when he countered by leaning forward to “tighten his shoe laces,” taking the opportunity to gaze between her still parted legs. She thanked the gods that tonight she’d opted to go bare beneath her dress.
He slowly and quite intentionally ran the back up his hand up the inside of her extended calf as he sat back up and re-situated himself in his seat. Licking his lips, he visually assessed her from head to toe one more time as the train rolled into the station. Then he stood up and held out a hand to her, without a word. She slid her hand into his, rising.
Yes, she’d had too much to drink. She could tell, because she’d never be doing this otherwise.

I have to admit…this was tough. 200 words isn’t much, and to have any story at all, it has to be tight. I like the challenge, though. It’s an exercise in brevity and clarity, two things every writer should practice often.

Who needs words? Actions work so much better sometimes.

That was delicious.
Thanks never rode the green line. The orange and blue, and never after happy hour. I wonder what I missed? 😘
