SWEET TALK
Prompt - Sweet Talk : Write about trying to convince someone of something
-But I'm really really good at it
-You would say that though, wouldn't you
-It's not like I can produce references, so there's only one way to find out if I'm telling the truth
-Or maybe I shouldn't take the risk
-But they look so lovely. They deserve to be touched.
-I don't think how they look really comes into it
-It does for me. And they look lonely.
-Don't worry, they can keep each other company
-I mean, why wouldn't you want me to touch them?
-Because they're mine, and I'm not in the mood
-But if I touch them that might get you in the mood. Worth a go, isn't it?
-No
-And there could be health benefits
-Eh?
-I might find a lump. I might prevent cancer. I could save your life.
-Hmmm
-And being happy is good for your health. We'd both be happier if you let me handle them, I promise.
-I might not be.
-Well I would. Couldn't it be your good deed for the day o do something that would make me happy?
=Hmmm
-I'd stop if you weren't getting any pleasure from it, honest.
-Hmmm
-And I do have soft hands, with a gentle touch. But not too gentle.
-Hmmm
-So what about it. Do I get to touch them?
-Maybe.
-What else can I do to convince you? I could start on the left, just for fifteen seconds, see how it goes? Or would you prefer the right? I'm happy either side.
-The right.
-Really?
-Really.
-You sure?
-Oh, for fuck's sake, give me your hands. There.
-Oh god. Oh god. They feel... wonderful. Do you like that?
-Hmmm
-And that?
-No, not yet, go back to where you started. Yeah, like that. You're right. We're both going to be happier...
