THE STORY FOR THIS WEEK
Three days in the woods, this was the perfect weekend for Rick and Joan. It was supposed to be their getaway from the hassle of city life. A simple weekend at Rick's old man's camp house. Unfortunately, things don't always go the way we plan them. On arrival at the Camp house, they had to clean up and make the house a place they could live in. It had been long anyone stepped foot in there.
Good luck writing and may the best story win.

INTO THE WOODS
It Was Supposed To Be A Beautiful Night
They had been dating for 6 months but never really got to spend any quality time together. Joan waited tables at a local diner where she pulls a double shift just to make ends meet. Rick's real estate business on the other hand had been doing very well but that meant traveling a lot. Rick brought up the idea of the trip and it was welcomed by Joan. She needed a break, she deserved it. It was a stressful 6-hour trip but they knew it will be worth it. They would finally be together, just the two of them in the calmness of the woods for 3 days. They got to the camp late in the evening, the room was dusty and reeked of old furniture. Rick took their bags to the room upstairs and they both spent the next hour tidying up the house. They were finally done and needed to rest. Joan suggested they lay on the patio to watch the stars. The night was well lit being a full moon, it was the perfect night. Rick spread a thick blanket on the floor where they lay side by side admiring the wonders of nature.
Rick leaned over to Joan and planted a soft kiss on her lips. Joan kissed him back passionately, she didn’t want to take things slow anymore. They had been going slow for 6 months and she was done with that. She wanted him right there and then. She had her hands at the bottom of his shirt about to yank it off when they heard a loud growl. They both stopped and looked into the forest in the direction the sound came from. It was probably just a wolf in the woods. Joan mentioned that she had a bad feeling about it, so they headed inside. It was a little difficult to continue where they left off not just because of the scare the growl had given them but the fact that it seemed to be getting nearer and louder. Rick went to the basement to get the old camp gun. It hadn’t been used in a while but hopefully it would still work if the need arose. He loaded the gun with some cartridges he had found in a box beside the gun.
He went back up to meet Joan. Maybe this trip wasn’t such a good idea after all said frightened Joan. Rick assured her everything was going to be alright, it was just a lost wolf. Suddenly, there was a loud bang at the door. The creature had run into the front door and was scratching at it with what sounded like very big claws. The doors weren't as strong as they used to be and was starting to give as the beast kept pounding and scratching it.
Rick aimed for the door and shot at it. The gun let out a loud boom, the room smelled of smoke and gun powder. They heard a wince at the door and a loud thud. They tried to move closer and could hear the creature whimpering. Rick was confident he hit the wolf and it had been severely wounded if not dead. He opened the door slightly and could not believe what he saw. Is it dead? Asked Joan. How was Rick supposed to explain that he hadn’t hit a wolf or more importantly that a dead man lay naked in a pool of blood at the door.
This is way more than 400 words. It was a nice story though. really enjoyed it. but rules are rules.
Lol, seriously?
I actually had to cut the story in a lot of places to make it short enough and after so much time invested on writing it, I don't qualify?
Look at my new reply to this post.
Just did. Alright thanks. It's really hard making a good story with such few words sha. I guess we will have to improve our skills. May the best writer win ✌🏾
This is great. Must my submitted story be in form of a comment? I would prefer to make a post on it. Thank you.
You can make a post about it if you feel like, but your texts must be sent here as a reply. I await your amazing story completion
After the cleaning Joan was very tired and wants to relax, Joan was laying down as Rick took one full chicken to the front of the camp house to grill.
suddenly he heard Joan coughing heavily and he rushed inside, the room was filled with dust, Rick was confused because he had no idea what happened, he saw a stick that fell from the roof on the table beside the bed. Rick carried her outside to receive fresh air. As Rick and Joan were coming out suddenly a dog ran away from the grilling spot, "This dog took our chicken away" Rick said to Joan but she told him to forget about the chicken and tidy the dust inside the room.
Both of them are on the bed discussing quietly and looking at each other emotionally, they wish they could come closer but they are already feeling sleepy.
It's early morning and very cold breeze is entering the room through the window, lightening is reflecting on Rick and Joan as they are holding each other tight, the breeze is becoming heavier, "could this be rain" said Rick "this is the right time" Joan replied with a low and sexy voice.
Joan is waiting for Rick to make the first move but Rick is not showing any interest, suddenly the window banged and a heavy dust fell from the roof. It started raining heavily that almost the whole roof began to leak which made them very uncomfortable.
It stopped raining at exactly noon and the whole room was filled up with water, Rick was suggesting they go and look for a better place to stay but Joan preferred they go back home so that they can have a nice time at home on Sunday and prepare for Monday work.
They are on their way back, just after a lonely fuel station, they saw two cows standing on the middle of the road, the cows refused to leave the road, Rick wanted to go down and chase them away but Joan told him not to leave the car, "Use the horn" Joan said, Rick horned but nothing changed.
Rick reversed the car and came with speed which was the worst decision because the cows now stood up and positioned for fight thinking the car wants to attack them, Rick mistakenly started the wiper and the cows ran away, "wonderful" said Rick.
Thanks for participating
Gone through the stories, and everyone violated one rule or the other. So we would be choosing the story we deem best irrespective of the rules as they were violated by all entries. We wouldnt want to take home back our gift. Thanks for participation.
