Cut to save my friends list. I picked the easiest one of all.


William

Harris's sheer panic when he saw Anya flipping through the book of baby names was the first thing all summer that lifted Spike's mood.

"Men," Anya huffed, after her boyfriend had made a speedy exit. "You'd think he'd be happy I was thinking about producing small humans. Women's sex drives can greatly increase during pregnancy."

Dawn leafed through the book. " 'Dawn - sunrise'. Way original." She flipped to a page near the end. "Hey, William means 'protector'."

There was silence. Spike looked at her. Remembered her sister and 'till the end of the world.'

"I need a smoke," he said.

Your last lines keep making me laugh. And the Anya -- really cute.

Isn't this completely addictive? I wrote four last night, and I'm pretty sure there'll be more today. I'm having a good time.

I admire how many emotions you can put in such few words. Meaning, I like it very much.

Very cool. You were right - 100 words is *hard*! But you do a great job.

You immediately establish the time frame and the voices are spot-on. This is a wonderful snippet, both funny and touching.
