Canoodling

Today it's Tuesday Tales over at Glitterword! It's a 100 word flash fiction with a word and a picture as a prompt. The word is canoodle and the picture is beautiful:

See? Told you. Anyway, I had fun using both definitions of the word (To engage in caressing, petting, or lovemaking; To win over or convince by cajoling or flattering). I hope you enjoy!




“Remember the day we met? That tantalizing red dress accentuated every perfect curve, your eyes sparkled and your smile was as bright as the sun…”

“Don’t think you can canoodle your way back into my life!”

“Canoodle? Hmmm, sounds like fun…”

“That’s not what I meant.” She crossed her arms and sidestepped his reach.

“Now honey, don’t be that way.” He traced his thumb down her arm, “We were so good together.”

She shivered and blushed, “But it didn’t work out.”

“We could try again.” He moved closer.

She looked up. He was holding out a red tulip. Her favorite.
