amediaThis year's words were "In a pinch" "rain boots," gum, lovely, and strip*. We got seven minutes. Here is the unedited story exactly as I wrote it!
"Lovely," said Hitch, peering out the entrance of the cave at the sandstorm outside.
"If it was ice instead of sand, we could build an igloo," said Tully unhelpfully.
"And if it was rain we'd need our rain boots," Hitch said irritably.
"You sure do get cranky when you run out of chewing gum," said Tully. His placid voice only made Hitch crankier.
"What do you suppose Sarge and Moffitt are doing? D'you think they got under cover in time?"
"Pining after Dietrich as usual," drawled Tully. "And I'm sure they're safe. They could always crawl under the jeep in a pinch."
Hitch was quiet for a few minutes. "How long is this storm going to last?"
Tully frowned. "I don't know. Long enough to ..."
That got Hitch's attention. "Long enough to what?" Wait, are you stripping?" His voice rose an octave on the last word.
Tully shrugged off the last of his clothing. "Gotta shut you up somehow if we're both going to live through this," he said and reached out to start undressing Hitch.
"But--mmf," said Hitch, his words abruptly cut off by a kiss from Tully. What followed might not have been perfectly silent, but at least Hitch stopped complaining.
