Funny Locations Novels & Stories

For now though, it felt nice to be a little carefree. Pei Wei was packed by the time we arrived. Children running rampant like we were at a fucking Chuck E. Cheese pizzeria. It was crazy insane to me how often parents failed to watch their own spawns while out in public. You want your house to be some sort of jungle gym, cool. At least have some respect for the other people forced to share the same space as your screeching, out of control children and stop ignoring their horrendous behavior.

"Japan. Georgia. Any Wake Tech campus. Europe. Five Guys. The Cheesecake Factory, Kansas, Wisconsin, Rhode Island, Staten Island, Texas, New Mexico, and the Ruins of Pompeii." "That's 18," I breathe. I look up. "You're like...a God of mischief. You're Loki!" He puffs out his chest, shrugging it off. "I wouldn't go that far. But...I'm pretty at what I do." I'll say. I need to be banned from almost five more places to catch up. I smile at him, leaning forward. "We should get banned from more places." He leans in too.

He was glowing with pride, while Vanessa sat right next to him, looking every bit like the star of the night. I was seated near the serving entrance and was basically invisible. After several rounds of drinks, the atmosphere in the room turned vulgar. A few male colleagues who loved telling dirty jokes started running their mouths again under the influence of alcohol. "Vanessa's got serious charm. She even managed to crack a tough nut like Gilla Group!" "Exactly. The kind of allure Vanessa has? That's nothing some bookish little girl can compete with. If you ask me, talking business in the conference room is nowhere near as effective as talking at the dinner table, right, Vanessa?"

It's pathetic! He dropped that bomb and strutted off before I could fire back. I could hardly believe my ears that such boneheaded words came from the man I have loved for years. His so-called 'cozy winter promos' were just a table with free cups of cheap black coffee and some giveaway gloves out front. The coffee often went cold, untouched, and those gloves ended up in the street bin. However, Seth, of course, thought they were pure gold. Somehow, I was the one cashing in on Lily's ideas!

The thought of last night’s make-up sex with Cillian leaves a smile on my face and gives me a short relief from the bone-cracking pain I’m feeling at the moment. “I told you so. Next on the must-try-sex bucket list, try a quickie. Outdoors. Like in a park or an amusement park at night. Parking lots. Movie theaters. So many options. It’s exhilarating.” My friend even pauses looking like she’s already imagining herself in those “outdoor quickies,” probably with either Nikolai or Gunner. She said she’s never done it with both at the same time, so that’s probably what’s she’s thinking about now that’s making her grin. “Noted.” I give a forced chuckle trying to hold a flinch from a sudden pain on

The park echoed with our laughter, a testament to the unbreakable bond we had formed. With each passing joke, I felt a sense of belonging, of being surrounded by a chosen family. We laughed, not just at the jokes, but at the absurdities of life, finding comfort in the shared understanding that we were not alone in our struggles and triumphs. It was in those moments of unbridled mirth that I knew these connections were precious and irreplaceable.

The room was filled with an infectious energy, a blend of friendship, humor, and the thrill of discovering life’s unpredictable beauty. As the night wore on, our conversation grew more relaxed and playful. We swapped stories of our most embarrassing moments, each tale wilder than the last. I recounted the time I had accidentally walked into the wrong classroom and sat through an entire lecture before realizing my mistake. Favour shared a hilarious anecdote about a disastrously overcooked dinner in her first shared apartment, and Gift boasted about her uncanny ability to misplace her phone even when it was in her hand.
