50 Shades of Meet-Cute (in other words, how we met, ultimately falling in luuurve) Issuing a challenge to myself Barney Stinson style to create fifty meet-cute situations through a collection of LGBTQ related one-shots. Meaning, two people meet in some way and find themselves drawn to one another. These stories are meant to be snippets showing how they met and I plan to keep them in the 500-2000 word count range although I already broke that self-made rule with Shade #2...oops ;-) Intending to update with at least one story per week. Spoiler Alert: These pairings are guaranteed Happily Ever After endings ☺ ***If you have any celebrities/situations you'd like to read please feel free to share them with me and if I write it, I'll dedicate it to you! Hope you enjoy

No one is going pay attention if only one person voices their opinion. Historically, WE have to be POWERED in numbers to get things done. All YOU have to do, is contribute a small part to make ONE voice louder to fuel supply and demand.

"I love you, I made mistakes, I know i did but, please take me back I'll do anything," I begged, I would do anything for her she was my one true love. Ash and Gabriel are back and better than ever, they ran through some obstacles before they finally got together but now there's a mysterious person trying to tear them apart. Will Gabriel and Ash's love prevail or will the evil plot to split them apart become true.

Proud Watty Winner "I can't let you go Gabriel", My eyes grew wide I didn't know what to do I was shocked Ash was kissing me and I like it all my thoughts went away and my mind went blank. I closed my eyes as my mouth started to move with hers you know that electric feeling you're supposed to get when you're with you're soul mate I was feeling that right now. She nibbled on my lip as I felt her tongue cross over my lip sensuously asking for entrance I automatically granted her access I felt her tongue glide gracefully into my mouth she tasted like Winter fresh she pushed me her body up against mines making me push harder into the brick wall, I heard a moan as she sucked and played with my tongue I think that was me I was running out of breath as we attacked each others mouth I think she was to because she pulled back and rest her forehead on mines, my eyes were still closed, we were both breathing heavy. I opened my eyes and looked at her she was staring me straight in my eyes. "I like you Gabby hell I think I might even actually love you" She said staring at me waiting for my reaction, her words just processed through my head Ash likes me or loves me then I thought about what Samantha said then what I saw then I realized something I just made out with a girl who just happens to be my best friend I didn't know what to say so I did the next best thing that came to my mind I pushed her away slightly she looked at me hurt. "I'm sorry Ash but but I ccan't" I stuttered with tears forming in my eyes she can't say that to me..

Courtney Calloway, a retired attorney, met Erin Tucker in Las Vegas where after a few drinks, they promptly wed. Courtney truly desires to stay married. However, are the reasons she gave to do so the only ones? Or is she keeping a secret from her new spouse? If you've read Blessings In Disguise, you'll notice a couple characters from that novella popping up in this one. Though both stories take place in the same universe, one doesn't have anything to do with the other. And yes, I played with the laws of marriage ;-)

Dylan Tate, a San Francisco native, was perfectly fine with living a carefree lifestyle free from any major responsibilities. One particular day life smacks her upside the head with a greater responsibility than she could have ever bargained for. Will she fail at becoming a grown up or can she rise to the occasion? Layne Bishop, on the other hand, was quite familiar and comfortable with responsibility. She was also already a grown up, something she had to achieve sooner than would usually be necessary. Layne yearned for commitment, love and family -- none of which she had in NYC. Could a trip across the country deliver better fortune? ***Note: I hope you'll give it a chance, but you may not want to read this if intimacy between those belonging to the same gender is not your cup of tea :-) If you do choose to read on, if you'd be so kind please share your thoughts with me. I'll give ya a cookie. Okay, three cookies! ADDED: September 29, 2012: Hey all, I'm glad that the reads for this book have picked up, but could ya'll please tell me what you think about it? I won't know if you like it unless you tell me and/or vote. Even if you just post one or two words, it would be much appreciated. Thank you :)
