Method or In Deep #fridayfictioneers via rochelle – 9/13

The challenge posed is to write a 100-word story inspired by a photo prompt provided on Rochelle Wisoff-Fields’ blog. I am new to this group and don’t know if writing two stories is Verboten. So please let me know if I need to flip a coin next time two stories fight for the title slot.  And make sure to click the link below to read other writer’s creations.

Method

“How exactly is this supposed to get me into character?” All I could do was clutch the side of the boat through the chop. “I’m not opening for wicked and green is definitely not my color.”

“Yea!That’ll be the day. How many times do I friggin have to go over this? It’s a mini-series.”

“Then what are the cooler and anchor chains for?”

“Fawget aboutit!  Let’s just call it Capano 101.”

Suddenly I couldn’t recall how many miles off shore till it becomes international waters. Or what the Actress Wanted ad said. Shit! Why hadn’t I called my agent first?

Word Count: 100

Footnote: Thomas Capano was convicted of killing his lover Anne Marie Fahey and dumping her body in the Atlantic Ocean.

In Deep

Tony panicked.  Imploringly she looked at him” Daddy what are you doing with Nemo?” the tears welling in her eyes.

Caught red handed over the toilet he punted “Remember in the movie? Nemo was trying to swim home. He was too quick Honey. I couldn’t stop him.”

“This is his home.” Fay stomped accusingly.

What had he been thinking? After tooling around the harbor for the last 4 hours, Fay desperately crying out “Nemo”, he knew he should’ve been honest. But at this point he didn’t want to go home.  He’d a bigger problem. His wife was gonna kill him.
