Carol,
Thanks for brightening my day with your funny story. Poor Simone wanted to treat her love to a naughty outfit. She noticed his car in the drive and decided to go change into the maids outfit in the bushes. The poor woman meets a hive of bees after she strips naked. I could see a naked woman screaming as she ran out of the bushes. It was just her luck a film crew were taping a segment at a nearby business. Great ending with Leonard showing up to console Simone and give her a ring asking her to be his Valentine.
Great imagery and excellent writing in your wonderful story.
Melissa.

Your funny story perked me up. It reminded me of the time I used to throw papers in Ponca City, Oklahoma in the rural area with my cousin and her mother. We were out in the middle of no where and had to go pee. My cousins mother ran out of toilet paper and used folage to wipe. She accidently grabbed poison oak and the next morning she had broken out in her private area with poison ivy. It was bad for her but funny for the family. The doctor came out laughing at the clinic we went to when Teresa told how she managed to wipe with poison ivy. I had a feeling your story was based in some fact.

Good day Carol,
Ah such a happy romantic ending and I must say even if it was a bad stinging and naked day for Simone, your entry was very entertaining.

Well done. Your story is well-written, of course and very creative. I read another with the same ending but a very different ay of getting there.

Comment from shelley kaye
LOL! when she fell on that beehive i said (outloud) "oh shit" -- and my daughter ran over to see what happened LOL!
okay anyway this was a great entry!
only one thing i noticed was the beginning line - you put an exclamation point in - not that big a deal but the sentence is "Oops. Something went wrong." (with just a period) totally easy enough to fix so you get a fiver anyway!
thanx for sharing and good luck in contest!

Comment from Quire's Gal
Sorry I ran out of sixers, or I'd give one to you. I see now, how this is condensed and action-packed due to the lack of descriptive words. A clever story and a fun read, combined with a 'big bang' ending. I think this is the type of flash fiction the judges are looking for.

Thank you for your virtual six and for your wonderful thoughts. I know that my flash fiction is not pared down as thin as some might, but I think it will give you an idea of what is expected. Thank you again...Smiles, Carol

Oh, that poor girl. Her intentions were so good. I guess you never know when you're going to be part of reality TV. At least Leonard came through for her in a big, big way. This was so good, Carol. Best wishes in the contest.
