shark! by summerfield

shark!

not the kind that lives in the water, but one who thrives on land, by the pool. the pool table, that is.

meet sophie la rue. she's pretty, she's smart, and she kicks butts with her cue. no one's beat her yet in her game. a wise man once said the one who would beat her hasn't been born yet. if a man wants her, he has to beat her at her game which goes to say no man who had ever wanted her has had her. she, on the other hand, can have any man she wants and she knows how to get him. and she knows when she doesn't want him anymore. no amount of begging or grovelling can melt this chick; her heart is as hard as the eight ball.

that's the character development for 'sophie la rue', a story in the making.

i wanted to go sailing to find a shark, but i was told there are no sharks in lake ontario. plus it was cold and windy. so my pool shark character is more than good enough for this treasure hunt.
Well . . how interesting is this?!!! I want to hear the rest now. Ms. la rue is quite the gal. Made me smile there, my friend. Great shot. Wonderful pov on photo and comment.

what a shark -- what a character!! Forget the sailing on this frigidly cold day -- this shark will do!

@karenann - hahaha! thank you, karenann. but i just came up with this last night while looking at my shots of my model. yes, i found a willing model, a really nice kid. good looking, too. so i think i will sit down one day and write that story. or it could be in little vignettes here on 365, why not, eh?
