If, by some miracle or spell, Will was granted immortality, this is how I imagine he'd spend his time.
Excerpt From the Forever is Not Enough Series
If anyone had bothered to ask Will where he forsaw himself years into the future, he'd most likely shrug and spin you a tale of scandal and debauchery. Or you know, succumb to an early grave. The rate he was going—it certainly wouldn't come as a surprise.
Presently, however—a century, or so he thinks—whose keeping track?—he finds himself in the midst of a cultural revolution: The year is nineteen seventy-eight, three years since the conclusion of the latest war (Mundanes, honestly... ), and the fashion of this particular decade has taken a turn for the strange. And believe me, he's seen plenty. (And he's just about had enough of Magnus and his insistence upon wardrobe changes, thankyouverymuch.)
But as he turns to avoid a small boy barreling down the sidewalk, he sees her. Hair loose and shinning in the sunlight; mile-wide smile stretched across her beautiful face. Today she's sporting a slip of a sundress, gossamer-white—prone to flowing up around her legs at any slight of breeze, like Miss Monroe—and for a moment that drags on for an eternity, he's enchanted.
He lifts a hand in a jaunty wave—watches as her eyes light up like the Fourth of July—and in the next instant he has an armful of Tessa. She smells of lilacs and caramels from the corner store. Naughty. She didn't share. Her lips are moving—pouty-pink—and he thinks maybe he should listen.
"—Will, did you hear me? I said—"
But his attention is equally flighty, and just like that he swoops in, catches her lips with his own, and proceeds to steal her breath away. He's successful, he notes with a grin. When they finally part, she's huffing and puffing—looking as though she might work herself into a tizzy—when she merely rolls her eyes and leans in for another kiss: She stands on tip-toes, braces her hands on his shoulders, and pecks him one on the nose.
He certainly wasn't expecting that, and he scowls, a faint blush staining his cheeks.
To Be Continued...
Because I feel so lazy, I've decided to post this little teaser. As I've stated in my bio I'm extending the follow-up story to Retrospect with mulitple chapters, and so it's going to be a couple more days until it's posted. But at least you have something to tie you over. No matter how short. Let me know what you think! TTYL.
