Lucky Seven Meme

So I got tagged for this by my brilliant critique partner and agency sister, Lori M. Lee. Thanks Lori!

The Lucky 7 Meme Rules
  • Go to page 77 of your current MS/WIP
  • Go to line 7
  • Copy down the next 7 lines--sentences or paragraphs--and post them as they're written. No cheating.
  • Tag 7 authors
  • Let them know
Here it goes. The following is from the current version of The Nightmare Affair

********************************************************************************
I alighted onto the field behind a hulking player I recognized as Brian Johnson. Seeing him brought back memories of the first time I ever dream-walked. Not particularly good ones. Nobody thought I’d inherited any Nightmare powers until I woke up one night feeling a hunger no Snickers bar could satisfy. Half-dazed, half-terrified I broke into Brian’s house, climbed on top of him, and found myself in a dream-world populated by naked girls with big boobs. One of them had been a friend of mine. When I caught Brian trying to grope her, I kicked him, not knowing any better.

Yeah, it didn’t end well.

I contemplated giving Brian another kick now for old time’s sake, but I needed him for cover, not trusting Eli wouldn’t spot me again.
