On time! *victory dance*
This one is actually based on some characters I'm working with right now.
“Why won’t you talk to me?” I asked, turning on him in the
hallway. He paused in his walk. “I’m tired of a glare being my only response when
I ask you a serious question.”
“You don’t know anything about me, and I intend to keep it
that way,” he replied crisply, and started walking again. I held out my hand
and pressed it into his chest to keep him where he was.
“If we’re going to work on this together, you’re going to
have to trust me,” I said. He smirked.
“I don’t think so. As of yet, you don’t even know my real
name.”

Lark and Berlin, I'm guessing? ^_^ I really enjoy this.
ReplyDeleteOne note on formatting, though, because it got a little confusing who was talking. It should be:
“Why won’t you talk to me?” I asked, turning on him in the hallway.
He paused in his walk.
“I’m tired of a glare being my only response when I ask you a serious question.” (and it would probably make more sense if you added a dialogue tag here.)
I'm only pointing it out because I've noticed a few times in your writing that I get a little confused about who's talking. Though, to be fair, I'm an easily confused reader :P
Yup, you guessed right. ^_^
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've noticed that in my writing, too...I'm definitely going to have to focus on it when I start line editing my book.
Man, that guy is a punk! And that's cool that the prompt coincided with something you're working on :D
