RUN IT!
Damn! Have you seen the upper body on Michael B. Jordan? He’s the fine young actor who plays Adonis Creed in the new “Creed” movies.
And when I say ‘fine’, I mean fine.
Whether his goal is to get into shape, make award winning movies, encourage young athletes to get in the best shape possible or to leave a trail of panting women behind him, he has succeeded in all those endeavors.
Like his father Apollo Creed, he is one incredible specimen. Just saying.

Weekend Writing Prompt #326

LOVE SHACK
It was inevitable.
After months of being in cramped quarters with the 7 dwarfs, Snow White and Doc started having feelings for each other.
It all began when Snow White developed backaches from stooping to get through the front door and hunching over whenever inside the house. She even had to curtail dancing with the dwarfs at their weekly hoedowns, something they all enjoyed.
There wasn’t enough room in the dwarf’s bedroom for any more beds, especially one large enough for Snow White, so she continued sleeping on all seven dwarf beds pushed together while the little men found places to spend the night downstairs. It was not ideal, however, and soon Snow White started complaining of pains in her neck, too.
Doc began to treat Snow White’s aching back and neck with warm compresses, deep massage and ice packs which Dopey gleefully retrieved for Doc whenever he requested them.
All the dwarfs had a deep affection for Snow White and she felt the same way about them but the more time she spent with Doc, the more their feelings became harder to ignore … and resist. Soon their relationship was obvious to the others.
Doc’s twice-daily massages were a relief and Snow White looked forward to them. She began to yearn for the feel of Doc’s small but mighty hands on her body. Doc, too, tingled with delight whenever his hands came in contact with her soft skin.
Snow White and Doc started spending more and more time together; chores went undone and Doc rarely spent time with the guys like he used to. One night none of the other six little guys got any sleep because the sounds of pleasure emanating from upstairs kept them awake. That’s when they decided to take action. As much as Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Sneezy, Bashful and Dopey all loved Doc and Snow White, the time had come for the paramours to move out. Besides, the dwarfs wanted their beds back.
Grumpy, as the unofficial leader of the pack now that Doc was otherwise occupied, met with a group of forest friends who ran the real estate business “Gnome Sweet Gnome”. He explained the delicate situation to the gnomes and they set out immediately to find the right house for Doc and Snow White.
When Rumpelstiltskin’s little cottage went on the market after he was banished from the forest, the gnomes quickly acquired it and put the good fairies Flora, Fauna and Merryweather to work sprucing up the place with their special magic touch. In no time the romantic hideaway was ready for Snow White and Doc; they bid farewell to the 6 dwarfs and took up residence in their very own love shack.
And there they lived happily but not ever after as Snow White’s eye caught a glimpse of the handsome stranger on a white horse and he was just her size. 😉
