55 Friday

For the last several weeks on Friday I have been doing Flash Fiction (or nano fiction) over at Susie's blog.
The 55 Friday originated over here.
The idea is that the fiction should have exactly 55 words, at least one discernable character and a storyline.
------------
She felt the pressure building inside her.
She tingled, her body was ready, crying out for release.
Her breathing became more rapid and her eyes closed.
Her spine arched, as a huge gasp of air filled her lungs.
Her face contorted and she gave voice to her satisfaction.
It felt so very good to sneeze.
------------
It is possible my cold influenced my topic choice.
So there ya have it, wax eloquent or something.

What a challenge!
And what a great solution.
I counted and found 55, including the 'a', which is really not a word.
