#FiveSentenceFiction 01/26/12
Five sentences toward a certain WIP, based around the prompt clandestine. Oh, how I love that word. Brings to mind all sorts of covert and nefarious goings on.
I woke to find two women I recognized standing nearby, heads bowed together in conversation. I cleared my throat and my head threatened to roll off my shoulders—holy hell, what had been in that drink?
They looked at me in brief acknowledgment as I heaved myself upright in the bed—it looked like some kind of hospital deal—wincing at a tiny sting at my left elbow. A bandage covered the spot, as though I’d had blood drawn or been injected with something.
I offered a friendly, and completely sarcastic, wave and said, “I’m sure there’s a perfectly reasonable explanation for this, right?”
Hope you enjoyed my Five! Comments and feedback are always welcome.

Love it!!
Nice job! Got me wondering …
Great work! Hmmm what DID happen?
This makes me wonder…so who were the two women and what did they do? …and what will happen next! I’m loving this five sentence fiction!
Hmmm, shades of a hangover….giggle!
Definitely leaves me wanting more! I’m looking forward to finding out what the heck did happen when the WIP is finished!
Excellent! Would love to know what that was all about
Gosh, must have been a rough night!
