Here are a couple of intros to show you what my style is with regards to length, characterization, etc.

"Heaven Can't Be Contained Within Seven Minutes" - Girl/Older Neighbor

(The setup is essentially that the girl and her neighbor have been paired up in some kind of "Seven Minutes in Heaven" style party game. This could be part of the girl's 16th/18th/Whatever-th birthday party, or some other explanation. It's pretty flexible with regards to age pairings, build-up, etc. There's a good amount of room for variation on the scenario)

Zach looked a little confused as he walked into the bedroom with his neighbor's daughter. "So...your friends don't want help hauling furniture, I take it?", he mused as he sat down next to her on the edge of her bed.

He wasn't an idiot. The guy knew, by now, why her friends had sent the two of them in here and what they were expecting him to do. He honestly hadn't really thought about it much before.. The two had been neighbors for years, and their only interaction would be brief conversations at small neighborhood events and gatherings.

Over the years, he had grown tall and moderately muscular. His dark, intelligent brown eyes gleamed with confidence and experience. He was finishing college now, and would only stop by his parents' place a few times in the summer; that girl across the street rarely crossing his mind.

Until now. Sitting next to her, Zach had begun to notice his neighbor in ways he hadn't before; and it both weirded him out and excited him.

"Extracurricular Activity" - Student/Teacher
(This setup has been done so much, do I really need to introduce it?)

Mr. Price caught himself eyeing her up again as she began to gather her things. It wasn't like lusting after students was a typical thing for him, but there was something about this one...

He looked back down at the graded paper he held, topped with her name and marked with red ink all over. It seemed like a perfect pretense to call her to his office for a private "advisory" session.

"If you've finished over here, I'd like to have a word with you in my office...", he said cooly, but sternly, while hiding the excitement he was feeling with an authoritative glare.
