Faces | Tyler Cook
1. A tingling sensation in the sinuses causes your nostrils to flare, your brow to climb, and your eyes to flicker shut. You sneeze, suddenly aware of every hair your scalp possesses.
2. Face lax, eyes vacant, mouth agape. The light from the television turns his skin blue.
3. Her jaw is set and her face is taut. The muscles under her eye flinch. You decide it’s time to relocate.
4. Groggy, with a brow furrowed in frustration, you paw at the light switch.
5. Jaw opens wide, stretching your face and baring your teeth. Your eyes begin to water. Yawn. It’s time for bed. Well… bed or caffeine.
6. One eye squeezed shut, contorting the face, the other straining to see through the glare of the sun.
7. Lashes flutter as her head turns to the side. She sticks out a pouting lip and says “please.” ....... Damn her!
8. Despite the rosy cheeks, she looks washed out and tired. Her skin is soft. Her hair is white. Her lips are brilliant red. Pale eyes twinkle as she smiles. The crow’s-feet deepen, cracking her makeup.
9. Nervously biting her lip, the girl glances over her shoulder.
10. Her eyes are puffy and damp. Her face is tear-streaked and red. She looks at you for a moment pleading silently, and then hides her face again in the pillow.

I definately relate to the sneeze! I still have yet to figure out how some people 'daintily' sneeze.
I like you style a lot. #7 gave me quite a laugh, very original (your thoughts on it are the best part)
