Lucky 7 Meme

[genlisae]

broken_moons put out a general tagging, so I considered myself tagged because this looked fun.

RULES -
Go to page 7 or 77 in your current manuscript
Go to line 7
Post on your blog or Facebook page the next 7 lines, or sentences, as they are – no cheating
Tag 7 other authors to do the same.

Only I didn't want to go with something I had already posted because I am way past page 7 there (and even 77 for Pleasantries, CD doesn't have a 77 yet) so I had a choice to go with a project that isn't exactly "current" more like "being worked on in fits and starts", or with page 77 of  the remainder that I have written for Pleasantries.

I suck at choices. You get both.

Cyril scowled down at the floor. Now that Siena was here he would have to go through with the plan. He couldn’t just wait for dark and then lie, he would be far too ashamed of himself if someone else knew that is what he had done.

Slowly he rose to his feet brushing dust and spiders off his clothes; best to get it over with.

Siena followed suit,” Which way do you suppose we should go to find the cellar?” she asked glancing down one hallway, then the next.

Cyril pointed to the stairs across the room, “Down I would imagine.”

“Oh. Well yes, I suppose that is the best place to look isn’t it?”

Frowning, she tilted her head, “Something I did?”

“No.”

She reached out, trailing a finger up his thigh, “Something I didn’t do.”

He placed a hand over hers stilling her movement, “You’re playing with fire little girl.”

Carefully extracting her hand from beneath his she leaned closer, her fingers trailing slowly over his hip, across his stomach following the waist of his jeans. She paused when her fingers reached his belt buckle

“Maybe I like getting burned.”

Tag, you're it.

OMG, Pleasantries! And now to wonder who those characters are! So wonderful. I'll have to find my notebook and post mine later. Very nifty little meme.
