Brain-ache for beginners

It's taken me a long time to write 22 sentences today, but it's the other 4 that are the hardest, because those other four have to begin with w,x,y and z. I've recycled an idea I first saw on [livejournal.com profile] snaples' lj, because I just fancy making my brain hurt this afternoon. The idea is to write a story where each sentence starts with the next letter of the alphabet, so sentence 1 beings with a, sentence 2 with b and so on.

26 sentences; sounds easy, is hard. I'm making it even harder by writing smut, which I can't write, and making it harder still by writing Crowley/Aziraphale smut, which is impossible because they won't be serious about it, and you know how hard it is to get them into bed together. Or anywhere near a bed. But, there's only four sentences to go and I'm going to think of something for x and z even if it kills me.

Anyone else feel inspired to try it? I know I probably haven't sold it very well, but it is a lot of fun.

"Xylophones?" Crowley asked. "Surely not on a first date?"

There is always x-ray, but I've used that in one before so I'd feel like I was cheating.
