#fridayfictioneers – September 6, 2024
The old tavern didn’t look like much. It was a popular gathering place for music and meeting people back in 1986.
The young man, barely of age, stumbled in the door. He was blind with despair.
He spotted a girl dancing alone on the dance floor. He watched her as he drank a beer. This place and that girl made him feel less lonely.
He joined her on the dance floor.
He whispered, “Take me home tonight. I don’t want to let you go until we see the light.”
She just smiled.
Thanks to Rochelle for continuing to host #fridayfictioneers!
*Based on the song, “Take Me Home Tonight,” by Eddie Money, 1986.
