Challenge #39: Fire, Fireplace, Candles
Title: The Boy Scout Motto
Author: Philflam
Timeline: Early
Condom: Brian, as usual
“Damn! I hate thunderstorms! The electricity always goes out,” Brian said, as lightning lit up the sky outside the loft.
“Don’t worry. I’m prepared. I bought candles and a battery-operated radio with extra batteries. We have plenty of bottled water, canned food, and, most importantly, lots and lots of condoms.”
“Christ, what are you, a Boy Scout?”
“I went to Scout camp one summer. I sat around the campfire staring at Barry Thompson.”
“If we had a fireplace, we could light a fire and you could stare at me.”
“I’d rather use some of those condoms. Come on, ‘prepare’ me.”
