For June 3^rd, 2023.

Every week we post six lines of a story of ours, a work-in-progress or from someone else’s work we recommend that has LGBT characters on Rainbow Snippets here https://www.facebook.com/groups/963484217054974

In my story “The Errant Kidnapping and Inadvertent Time Travel of James Sandall Jnr,” https://authorjeffbaker.com/2023/04/14/the-errant-kidnapping-and-inadvertent-time-travel-of-james-sandall-jnr-friday-flash-fics-from-jeff-baker-april-14-2023/ we meet James and Eddie, who are on a mysterious trip down memory lane. They wind up downtown in front of an old building with a neon sign.

“And here we are almost twenty years later,” James said. He leaned over to kiss his husband.

“You know,” James said a couple of minutes later when he was settling back in the passenger seat. “I wondered why you were being so mysterious back at the hotel.”

“Yeah, asking you to put on a blindfold and not ask questions does count as mysterious,” Eddie laughed. “I’m just glad this is the hotel I stay at when the company sends me up here.

Okay, a bit more snippet.

They know me so I could explain we went to college here, we’re up for a reunion and I wasn’t kidnapping you.”

James laughed again. “The Erratic Kidnapping and Inadvertent Time Travel Of James Sandall Junior. Yeah, there’s a title for a novel!”

“Time travel?” Eddie asked.

“Isn’t that sort of what we’re doing right now? Going back twenty years?” James asked.

Awwwwwww! Sweet! See you next week, folks, when we et steamy again! —-jeff

NOTE: I took that picture last month. The building has been sold and the arcade sign is gone! —-jsb
