Quick Prompt Contest Entry 12/28/10

Another quick contest. I barely made it...

using words:

page
chase
bleak
entity
breach

I sigh as I drop a page. I must stop fidgeting!

I stoop to pick up the trivial entity.

Embarrassment draws blood to my face like I stepped in a trap and got strung up by my toes. What are you staring at?!

Deep breath.

I peer at my competition. Are they aware of what is at stake?

I check the clock again.

Why do I chase these dreams of infamy? The outlook for me to win is bleak. I should go.

Was that my number?

I hop up. I breach the director’s office. Wish me luck.

Another page falls.
