6 Sentence Sunday

This is my first time participating in “Six Sentence Sunday.”  It’s another short writing blog game and I’ve been having so much fun with Romantic Friday Writers, that I’m going to try this one too.  Here are my six sentences, which are an excerpt from my novel (W)hole

###

“May I cut in?”

They both stopped moving and broke apart. Elizabeth turned and saw the man from the river and her stomach seized up. He was even more beautiful close up.

“Are you serious?” Robert said, but the man wasn’t looking at him. He held out his hands to Elizabeth.
