The 100 word drabbles in this story are all from the Photo Prompt Writing Challenge, a blog I contribute to weekly.
Several writers contribute, including Burntcore, Jessypt, 107 Yr Old Virgin, Miss Beckie Louise, Destynee, Kekah J, Muse Calliope, Kimmydon and Bronwyn. Some of these guys write Twific, some write original fiction, and their pieces vary in size so they're not all drabbles. I just really like them!
If you'd like to check out the blog and see the photo prompts as well as reading some great short stories, or if you're interested in contributing, visit us here:

Title: Lurking
Prompt: Private beach in summer
Time stands still in this haven, for some more than others.
The gentlest reminder that the day is getting older rolls across the sky in fluffy white tufts.
Offshore, lying motionless under crystal clear water, he waits.
He could easily stroll among the vacationers and dispatch them one by one without fuss, but where's the fun in that?
Later, he'll climb aboard their boat, seduce the woman with his glittering smile and bottomless eyes, fuck her into oblivion as he drinks down her life, then vanish overboard with her bloodless corpse.
Calm beneath the sea, he watches the clouds glide.
A/N: Thank you for reading.
