Title: Still of the Night

Prompt: Fog

The cold chill of the night coupled with the dense fog helped to hide him in the shadows.
Lurking there like a spy. No, not a spy; a spider waiting to kill the prey.
Except...
...he didn’t want to kill.
He didn’t even want to spy.
In reality, he didn’t even want to be there.
It was like a compulsion; like he had to be there or die.
The fascination had increased day by day, night by night, until the magnet had drawn him close.
And so he watched.
Silently in the dark.
Waiting for the right time to strike.

Wow, that one gave me goose bumps. Who's watching who and why? From the atmosphere and the mixed emotion I'd say Bodie's watching Doyle, not knowing what else he could do. Right - that one screams for a sequel. I can hear it loud and clear!

I decided to leave it up to the reader to decide who was doing what. I have one idea myself, but I'm not saying anything more. Thanks for commenting - and watch this space!
