5 Sentence Fiction: Bewitched

I'm joining 5 Sentence Fiction with Lillie McFerrin Writes today.

What it’s all about: Five Sentence Fiction is about packing a powerful punch in a tiny fist. Each week I will post a one word inspiration, then anyone wishing to participate will write a five sentence story based on the inspiration word. The word does not have to appear in your five sentences, just take your inspiration from that word. 

This week’s inspiration word is: BEWITCHED


The first time he ever saw her was the day he started working for her father. 

He had ridden his bicycle to the back of the workshop and rounding the corner with little noise, came upon her pressed up against the wall with the butcher’s assistant, her skirt lifted and his hand between her legs.   She stared at him over the shoulder of her lover and gave him a smouldering look before pushing the butcher away and flouncing into the house. 

That had been the start of it.

He was captivated, horrified and ashamed, and felt his face go red whenever he thought of her, but not a minute of the day passed when she wasn’t on his mind.
