I urge people to join in, comment with your paragraph of fiction to accompany the image. It doesn’t have to follow my story or reflect the same themes. It can be a poem or in a different language (provide a translation please 
). Anyone who wants to join in, is welcome. This photograph will be reblogged under Ermisenda on tumblr and added to the Picture it & Write gallery on Facebook and Pinterest.
Please continue to write however you’re inspired, but add a tag to the beginning of your post if there’s mature content in order to keep Picture it & Write an engaging event for all of our followers.

“We should head back now. The sun is nearly gone.”
“She said she was meeting me here.”
“She said she’d meet you here an hour ago.” I put my hand on my friend’s shoulder and felt her curly, kinky hair caress my skin. “I don’t think she’s–“
“She’s coming,” she snapped. “You can go if you want, but I’m waiting.”
I retracted my hand and let out a small sigh. “I’m not leaving you alone.” I tightened my scarf around my neck, hid my hands in my coat pockets, and stared at the cathedral’s clock tower with her.

Nice one Ermi Well doie. Here’s mine https://joe2stories.wordpress.com/2015/04/19/picture-it-and-write-one-chance/ Enjoy
What an opening sentence! This was really beautiful. I loved hearing the chemistry between these two. For some, it is just so instant and intense.

The sister ‘attempted flight’ by a bridge. Does that mean attempted suicide? Interesting little piece, Dave. Thanks for contributing! 🙂
This throws lots of questions at me. The big one is what could have happened to make the friend late? Good story. 🙂
Thanks! 🙂 I wonder…
Me too… ?

Oh no. She sounds like a terrible person. I like how he just kept driving at the end. Thanks for sharing your story, Ruby!

I loved how you can feel the girl’s determination in this short passage. Great use of dialogue!
Thanks, Eliza. 🙂

“This will be the last sunset.”
“I know.”
“They’ll be here after this.”
“I know.”
We watched the ball of light disappear beneath the horizon and stood in silence as its amber glow receded afterward.
“I’m glad I spent these last moments with you.”
“I know. Me too.”
Beautiful dialogue. I’m intrigued to know who ‘they’ is.
Thank you! I’m not sure I got that far. I write primarily scifi, so it’s probably invaders from another world.
I was hoping you would say that! That’s what I thought too. It would make for a great story I think.
Thanks!
