The following photo is the
PHOTO PROMPT. Where does it take you? Tell me in a hundred words or less.
It seems a small thing to ask,
but when posting your story, even if you’re using more than one prompt, please
post the prompt as well for that sense of connection.

THE CHANDELIER
The bronze chandelier looked too
heavy to be suspended from the ceiling.
Alice craned her neck to get a better view, her neck cricked and she
stepped backwards stumbling against a stranger.
Apologies left her lips as she
turned to face her saviour gazing into the most delicious green eyes she had
ever seen.
Andrew took her hand, lifted it
to his lips in an old fashioned courtly gesture and with a feather-light brush
of his full lips caressed the delicate skin of her hand.
She was so pleased she’d taken
the time for a full manicure the day before.

ReplyDeleteLove blossoms, and a wedding comes next, right under the chandelier. Lovely romance!

What an old romantic you are! Green eyes!
ReplyDeleteHow romanti!
ReplyDeleteNice romantic story! Love blossoms under the chandelier.
ReplyDeleteI have to wonder what kind of event they're at. It almost seems as if Andrew might be more comfortable in that space than Alice. Very nice!
