Drabble - please don't shoot me!

[schnuffi.livejournal.com]

Ok, this is my first ever Pros drabble, so please don't shoot me if I don't have them down to the spot yet. It's something that came to my mind in a flash so I wrote it down - 100 words exactly. I do have a problem with those darn commas now and then *cough* Hope it got them right this time. Ok, here goes...

Safe Haven

He woke with a start, momentarily confused about his whereabouts, his mind still stuck in a nightmare full of fire and blood. Reaching out blindly, he found Bodie’s familiar body stretched out beside him. With a sigh of relief he lay back down, one hand still resting on his partner’s broad shoulders. He closed his eyes, waiting for his frantic heartbeat to slow down. He was safe. They both were. Moving closer he wrapped an arm around Bodie who stirred slightly. Smiling faintly Doyle drifted off to sleep again. And this time it held no horrors but only peaceful rest.

I'm not much of a writer but I hope this little thingie is acceptable... *bites nails* I must be totally crazy doing this...

I think you did a good job with it. Nice image of Doyle waking and finding comfort in his partner.

[schnuffi.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Glad that image came over as I intended.

Ohh lovely! Heart-warming - well done! (This must be some new definition of the phrase 'not much of a writer' that I was previously unaware of)

[schnuffi.livejournal.com]

Weeeee, thank you so much for your kind words! Makes me feel sooo good *G* I'm ok with drabbles I think...

[heliophile-oxon.livejournal.com]

Drabble party!! Just staggered home from work and a hectic week to find a drabble party has started - wheee!! I loved this little snapshot of comfort and rest, very nicely done indeed.

Big party indeed and lots of cool stuff to read. Glad you liked my humble contribution *GG*

Talking about contribution - where's yours? ;)

Talking about contribution - where's yours? ;) I too have never drabbled in Pros, but I do not want to be a wallflower, so I shall put my party hat on and head off to the punch bowl for some :hic: inspiration..*g*

[schnuffi.livejournal.com]

Yay, can't wait to see the outcome *pours more malt into the bowl for better effect*

[faramir-boromir.livejournal.com]

You've got the idea--100 words that paint the scene.

[schnuffi.livejournal.com]

Thanks! *beams*
