Morning everyone.
Yet again I have agreed to do the One Sentence Story.
As this is Love Week I think you will be expecting something slushy and mushy for Valentine's Day.
Those who know me well, will realise that's not going to happen.
Let's just call this an alternative love story. You know the one which features Love and Betrayal…
So today I'll start a story and everyone has to add one more sentence to it.
You are only allowed to post one sentence and have to wait until someone else posts the next before you can go again.
Although it's a story about Valentine's Day, you can be as funny, creepy, lovey-dovey or as outrageous as you like.
I've set the scene so here we go…..
It was Valentine's day and Angie was getting ready to surprise her boyfriend Peter with a wonderful gift and a lovely meal at an expensive restaurant
For some reason it appeared as if they were drifting apart over the last few months and Angie wanted to let Peter know just how much she loved him.
The problem was, Peter was two timing Angie with her best friend Claudia and had decided to finish with Angie on Valentine's day.
Sadly, Peter had made a big mistake. He sent a Valentines card to Angie calling her Claudia. He sent a card to Claudia calling her Angie.
Both girls were horrified but as friendship is more important than a cheating man, they worked together to concoct a devious plan to teach Peter a lesson he would never forget.
Later that evening, Peter was in the restaurant with Angie. They had agreed to exchange gifts during a so called wonderful meal.
The meal arrived but both were wondering what was in each others gifts boxes on the table
Unbeknown to Peter, Claudia, 'the other woman', was in a cubicle behind the couple and sitting directly behind Peter.
Suddenly and without warning, Claudia stood up, leant over the cubicle and said "Hello Peter you cheating pig, here's a gift from me"
Walking round to the cubicle where Peter and Angie sat, Claudia pulled a knife from her sleeve and......

Great idea, thanks for pulling it all together, @Cleoriff
Thanks @pgn Excellent trailer! Of course I needed to find your penguin clip on YouTube as that was something which refused to copy and paste across to the story.

It is @pgn
I've read it more than once. Loved the way covid, masks, vaccinations and lockdown made an appearance thanks to @Mi-Amigo
Add to the way the comment 'go and fish a box out of the dumpster' turned into a fish box (still giggling) and then of course with a fish box, we suddenly had your penguins.
@TallTrees was determined to bring her chocolates into the story . So with all the blood, gore and slashed throats, it was a love story to remember....
