Requesting a Kiss

by Mari Ness


"Would you kiss me?" asked the frog.

"Not really," she admitted.

"I could turn into a prince," he wheedled.

"I seem to recall hearing that before," she said.

"But this time, I really mean it."

"Really?"

"Really."

"And the unprincely hopping into other beds?"

"Er."

"That is why I turned you back into a frog."
