Prompt: There was a picture in my phone of me sleeping. I live alone.
Kaci laughed as she snapped another picture of Elizabeth
attempting to ride the mechanical bull.
She loved girl’s night out, if for no other reason than it gave her
plenty of opportunities to take silly pictures of her friends. Sides hurting from laughing, she snapped
another picture as Elizabeth tried to stand after being thrown off. Snorting with laughter, she gave her best
friend a hand as she left the pit and they headed back to the table. The other girls gave Elizabeth a round of
applause as they finally made it to the table and laughing they ordered more
drinks. As the evening progressed, Kaci
snapped picture after picture. Some of
the girls began to grumble, “Kaci you never let us take your picture! Why do you always end up with all of the
incriminating photos?” Snickering to
herself, Kaci just smiled a wolfish grin and snapped another picture. Elizabeth leaned over and snatched her phone
away. “Hey! Give that back!” “ Not
until I see what pictures, you have in here.
I may need to delete some of them.”
The girls began to toss the phone from person to person, as they
scrolled through the evidence of the night’s events, always keeping it just out
of Kaci’s reach. “Oh my God, Bella you
have to see this picture!” Jen
chortled. Bella snatched the phone away,
“Oh hell no! That one definitely needs
to be deleted!” “ Don’t delete it,” Kaci cried. “I don’t post them. I just like having the memories.” Bella relented and kept scrolling. “Hey! You
have been holding out! When did you
start seeing someone?” “ What are you talking about?” “ Umm
hello…the picture. Someone that is
obviously intimately involved with you took it.” Reaching for her phone, Kaci was completely
confused. As she looked down at the
screen, she felt her blood run cold. “Kaci….Kaci….ummm
Kaci. Are you ok? You look like you have seen a ghost.” Kaci held the phone out to Elizabeth. As Elizabeth looked down at the image she heard,
Kaci say, “There is a picture in my phone of me sleeping, dated last
night. I was alone last night.”
