A Really Short Story

I wrote this in my creative writing class. We had six words and we were supposed to write a story using all six words. This is what I came up with, and it's only 175 words. Shortest thing I've ever written. Enjoy: The suitcase sat on the bed as Rhys hurried around his apartment, trying to get everything he needed. She'd be there any second and if he wasn't ready she'd kick his ass. He grabbed his passport and shoved it in between his cloths. He zipped up the bag, and headed for the door. Realizing he was barefoot he raced back to the bedroom to lace up his favorite sneakers. That's when he heard the doorbell chime. His stomach fluttered at just the thought of seeing her. Her smile was dazzling and it felt as if her crystalline eyes were boring a way into his soul. She grabbed his bag and pushed it towards him, and without a word they were out the door. They tossed their things into the trunk of Rhys' car. Rhys bristled at the sound of the deep male voice behind him, "Get the fu#! back here." That was all he heard, because Annie was already driving them fast away from the curb. Away from her father and closer to their new life, together. Hope you liked it. TNT, Words by Ali
