Flash Fiction- Lovebugs

This is pretty silly :D

Gerard and Nancy strolled along the bright white and smooth path next to the crystal clear water and laughed gently as it lapped at their feet. Nancy tripped lightly on one of Gerard's many shoelaces and yelled out indignantly. "Gerard! I don't know who taught you to tie your shoelaces, but Jesus Christ! You need your money back!" Within seconds the two lovers were squabbling like angry geese, and it seemed it only took a split second for Nancy to totter on one of her heels and feel herself flying through the air and landing with a splash in the freezing water.

John Adamson swilled the water around in his mouth and spat into the gathering water in the sink. Glancing at his watch and realising he was late, he pulled the plug out and watched as the water swirled down into the sewers, dragging Nancy the beetle with it.
