summary

Bobbie's husband has been laid off, and they are finding it difficult to make ends meet. Bobbie decides to ask a co-worker for a loan.


This story doesn't really get into explicit or graphic detail. I preferred to use a more romantic approach, and allow the imagination of the reader to fill in some of those graphic details in that respect, in the belief that it might make it appeal to the reader more. I hope that others see it this way.

I must admit that I didn't come up with the plot of the story myself. I was told the basic plot outline above (with a bit more detail as to what the arrangement is) by a friend who had told me a while back that it was a favorite fantasy. I felt in the mood to write recently, so I decided to see if I could turn my friend's fantasy into a semi- believable story by adding some background, a lot more detail, and the epilogue. As usual, my idea for the story seems to have morphed during the actual writing process. It seems that my characters had minds of their own, and wanted to do things THEIR way. Who was I to stop them?

I welcome any critique of the story, including the writing style. Please feel free to take me to task for making silly grammatical errors -- I've tried to avoid many of the more obvious ones. This is the first story that I ever posted onto the internet.

Reviews of the story itself are welcomed and appreciated.

Finally, some not-so-important details: My working title for the story was Bobbie, and, after completing the story, I decided that I preferred the title Rental Agreement. Somehow, the title Rental Property got typed instead. I'm no longer sure which title I like better.

Yes. I know I tend to get long winded... but I tend to be proud of my writing and thought that somebody might be interested in the "back story" of how these things get written.
