Friday 55 #104 Love in the LIbrary.....




"He's here again" the librarian noticed.


"Every day for the past two weeks, he's quite handsome, perhaps he comes to see me!"



"Excuse me, can I help you at all?" she asked fluttering her eyelashes.


"Errm not really, to be honest I've no heating at home and I come here to keep warm" he said.



Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

ROFLMAO!!! The poor Librarian ... getting her hopes all dashed by a cold handsome man. Perfect. Have a great Friday my friend :)

Flowerpot said...

Not surprised! I heard a piece this morning about someone living in a mobile home where the temp inside is the same as outside. Aaagh!

Kristine said...

LOL! perhaps that's the primary reason, the secondary is to see her.

Dumdad said...

He ought to stick close to the librarian as she's obviously got the hots!

Elaine Denning said...

I should have thought of doing that...it's freezing in my place!
(I don't believe him, by the way. Of course he wants her :) )

secret agent woman said...

Maybe the librarian could warm him up. :)

storyteller said...

I ... love a surprise ending ;-)
Cleverly conceived and created as usual.
Hugs and blessings,

Akelamalu said...

I think she was disappointed Thom :(

Whoever that is living in those conditions I feel heartily sorry for them Flowerpot!

I think so Kristine ;)

Definitely Dumdad! LOL

Oh yes, Laney it's just an excuse, he wants her!

She's just waiting for an invitation SAW!

Thanks Storyteller :)

tony said...

Short Sleeves!!!! Bloody Warmer Than Hebden Library!

Akelamalu said...

I think she might offer him cocoa Anndi ;)

I haven't seen the satellite photo Anthony but I can imagine what it looks like! :0

Thanks RLL x

I don't think he could afford his heating bill Bee!

Really Buff? LOL

So glad you enjoy them Ron m'dear. xx

Akelamalu said...

LOL Well he had to take his coat off or he wouldn't have felt the benefit when he went out Tony! (wink)

Daryl said...

As always I sit here envious of how you have such a clever way with words!

Maude Lynn said...

Brrrrr!

cheshire wife said...

He is lucky that the library has not been shut by the bad weather.

Spiky Zora Jones said...

akelamalu: Oh...the poor librarian had such high hopes. And having someone who admires you from afar is kind of exciting.

I loved that snippet. I could see it in my mind.

have a fab weekend sweetie. I love your 55s.
xxx

Dr.John said...

Great as expected. I really understand going out to get warm.

Fandango said...

Well done 55. It had that little twist that dragons like.

Linda said...

You see? THAT would be just my luck, too!

Brian Miller said...

lol. i imagine they say the same of me coming for the internet...nice 55. hope you have a great weekend!

my 55 is up!

CrAzY Working Mom said...

I'm tellin' ya...it's been cold here, thankfully our house is warm. Hope yours is too!

Felicitas said...

That's what happens when it's THIS cold outside! A terrific 55!

Travis Cody said...

I've done that...but for the air conditioning not the heat!

G-Man said...

I just think he's shy..hehehehe
Excellent 55 Ake Dear.
Thank you for your weekly Twisty, and have a Kick Ass Week-End...G

Akelamalu said...

How kind Daryl, thankyou x

Brrr indeed Mama Zen!

That's so true Cheshire Wife!

I think the librarian should have just lived with her dream Spiky ;)

It's an option a lot of elderly people here have to consider with the rising costs of heating Dr. John, unfortuntately. :( Glad you enjoyed the 55.

Glad you enjoyed the twist Fandango :)

Mine too if I was looking for love Linda!

Oh I didn't realise you use the internet at the library Brian but it's a great idea. :)

Good to hear you're keeping warm with your little ones Tisha x

Yes it does Filicitas!

Either way it's a good solution Trav :)

I do too G-man LOL

cathy said...

It is quite warm in Athens. Maybe that is why nobody uses the library here, LOL.

lettuce said...

good idea!

:-}

we have 2 really warm rooms in our house at the moment - and don't spend too much time elsewhere!

Anonymous said...

There's nothing like egg on your face!! Love it :0)

Deb said...

Ah, bummer! Once again you pulled me in and then...you totally surprised me. Thought this was going to be a nice romantic 55 but nope! Please write another chapter where the librarian goes after her man, please!

Shrinky said...

I imagine lots of libraries are more full than usual over this past week! Sweet tale, and not too far from the truth either, I suspect!

Susan at Stony River said...

LOL! I used to work in a library and quite a few people would be there for the heat, the air conditioning, the bathroom, whatever. Poor librarian!

hope said...

If he'd been smart, he would've let her warm him up. :)

Nice one!

maryt/theteach said...

LOL, Akalamalu! Happy New Year to you and your family! Wishing you peace and joy! :)

Unspoken said...

Too bad then. I believe she wanted to be of assistance :).

Akelamalu said...

I wish I was in Athens Cathy :)

Good to know you're keeping warm Lettuce :)

Ah but don't you feel a little sorry for her Eternally Distracted?

LOL the twist got you Deb!

I'm sure it happens all the time Shrinky!

Yes I can imagine a lot of people use libraries for more than just borrowing books Susan :)

Yes but he's not smart Hope ;)

Happy New Year to you too Teach :)

She did want to assist him with something She Writes ;)

Maggie May said...

I bet many a person is sitting in the library to keep warm. Thats assuming they can GET to the library in the snow!

Nuts in May

San said...

Wonderful 55, Akelamalu!

Misty DawnS said...

LOVE it! I must admit that I've actually done this, but it was a store rather than a library. When we first moved to Missouri, there was an ice storm and we didn't have heat for two days. I spent that second day in a store for HOURS. I swear I looked at EVERYTHING they had for sale... twice. hehe
