Anomalies
By Anon Allsop
Laughing and about half drunk the two of us staggered home,
my cousin and I had been celebrating our 21st birthdays
together. We were each born about a week apart, my birthday
was actually earlier but what the heck... anytime we could
party, was a great time indeed! As we walked, we fell down
an embankment and laid at the bottom even though we were in
pain, we felt nothing. Still chuckling about the fall this
time Keith stood up and grabbed my by my collar and elbow
and pulled me to my feet with little or no effort at all. I
wasn't surprised that Keith could throw me around like he
did, at 6'6" 238 pounds compared to my paltry 5'6" and 135
pounds, he had me by 100 pounds anyway.
We were buddies from way back and always had a real good
time whenever we got together, it has always been that
way... wherever you would find Keith, Ted would be
somewhere around or wherever you found Ted, Keith would be
there too. This time was no exception... except for being
drunk. He yanked me to my feet and threw me over his
shoulder and carried me back up the hill toward my home. I
was laughing so hard that tears were forming in my eyes as
he deposited me on the ground with a thud.
He fell to his knees rolling over onto his back laughing
hard. I couldn't remember what the heck we were laughing at
in the first place but it was one of those times where
everything was funny. He lay there wiping his eyes and
tried several times to ask me a question but only lost it
is his stupor.
When he finally composed himself he told me, "You know
Toad, we should've had the ice cream after we ate supper at
that Mexican restaurant."
Between laughs I asked, "Why are you saying that... I
didn't want any ice cream."
Cause... cause when... (More laughing) when we... (More
laughing) take a shit and our... (More laughing) assholes
are on fire... (More laughing) we can say, come on ice
cream! (More laughing) That'll put the ol fire out! (More
laughing)" He lay there laughing at his own pathetic joke
wiping the tears from his eyes.
I had raised myself onto my elbow and with his stupid joke,
threw myself back down on the ground. "Hey man, don't quit
your day job just yet!" (More laughing). I rolled over on
my stomach and tried to stand but collapsed back down on
the ground.
I could hear him get to his feet and start walking over
toward me... "Come on, Toad... get to your feet!" He
grabbed me by my belt and raised me off of the ground and
started walking. I could do nothing but hang there and
dangle my arms and legs, laughing like the drunken fool I
was.
He carried me for about a hundred feet like I was a piece
of luggage, until he finally broke my belt and popped the
button on my pants. There he dropped me on my knees and
clutched his stomach laughing as he staggered. I stood up
and the earth suddenly leaned and I ran toward the side
until gravity pulled me to a stop. There I lay listening to
him laugh until he fell to the ground again.
I raised myself to my knees and tried once again to stand,
but found myself staggering toward a fence. I knew that I
wasn't going to stop and just as I figured, I fell over
some barbed wire and landed in a soft pile of cow shit.
"Hey Keith, man my pant leg is stuck on this wire... oh
Christ, and now I have cow shit all over me!" I complained
as I kicked off my shoe while removing my pants from the
wire.
Keith crawled to where he thought I was and started talking
to a log laying about 10 feet away from me. "Hey, dumb
ass... I'm over here" I slurred. His head turned to look my
way and he again collapsed from a fit of laughter.
I found myself crawling back through the fence and pulling
my pants behind me. Keith had pulled himself along the
fence still laughing at my misfortune. "Damn it, it ain't
funny!" I said trying not to laugh myself. I pulled the
pants back on and stood up which started Keith to laugh
even harder at me.
"What the hell you laughing at now?" I growled. I was
finding it very difficult to maintain standing in one spot,
as it seemed the ground was moving beneath my feet.
Keith pounded the ground with his fist laughing
hysterically, "Toad, you look like you're wearing chaps!"
"What the shit you talking about?" I tried to put my hands
on my hips but missing almost planted me in the ground
again. I looked down as he just pointed while still
laughing and saw that the seam on the right leg of my pants
was torn from my ankle to my belt loop on the outside and
from the ankle to crotch on the inside. "Oh... shit, man
these were new jeans!"
"You friggen stink too!" his laughter was loud and echoed
off the woods nearby. "You smell like you just took a shit
bath!" He shouted loud enough for all the neighbors to
hear.
I fell backward onto my rump and pulled the worthless jeans
off of my legs, somehow I had lost a shoe and my sock there
along the road. I wadded up the torn cloth and threw it at
Keith hoping to hit him, but missed horribly. Standing
there along side the field with no pants, one shoe and sock
missing and covered with cow shit... I must have looked a
sight. I started staggering down the road away from my
laughing cousin, when I heard him come running up behind
me.
"Man you stink..." He smiled.
"Go to hell!" I shouted while tripping.
I fell to the ground and in a fit of anger pulled my
remaining shoe off and tossed it at him. Gathering myself
up I continued walking... or should I say trying to walk,
until I saw headlights coming down the road. "Car!" I
shouted.
We both ran toward the woods and dropped down behind some
logs. Lying there until the vehicle passed. I really don't
know why we ran, although I could hazard a guess why I ran
looking down at myself. Keith just ran because he did
whatever I did.
Once the road was clear, we started to climb back over the
log. That's when I realized that I just planted my foot in
some soft mud. "Damn it all anyhow!" I shouted pulling my
foot from the ooze... less one sock. "This night is really
sucking for me!"
Keith just laughed as he hopped over the mud. We got back
to the road and continued toward my house. I was becoming
more and more sober with the chilly air dressed the way I
was. Looking down I laughed at my predicament, I had on my
T-shirt, and underwear... that was all. "All we need for it
to do now is rain" I joked. As if by cue, the clouds opened
up and we were both running for cover under the sudden
downpour.
"Spoke too soon, Toad!" Keith yelled above the driving
rain.
A mad dash in the poring rain is bad but try it wearing
only a T-shirt and your underwear. We ran for about a
hundred yards and the rain suddenly stopped, but it didn't
help. Now I was soaked to the skin and couldn't keep my
teeth from chattering. Making it worse, I could now see my
breath after the sudden storm.
We decided to cut through a farmyard and noticed that it
didn't look like it had rained here. Keith laughed as we
hid between the buildings trying to keep out of the light.
He turned toward me and said, "Man, I don't think it rained
here... everything is dry. Ain't that freakin strange?"
"Sure doesn't help me right now!" I said shivering as I
watched small plumes of my breath freeze in the cool
evening. "Damn, I'm freezing cold!"
He motioned for me to stay put by saying, "I think I see
some clothes on the clothesline, I'll try and sneak over
there and get you something."
After the ordeal we had been through I realized that I
wasn't too terribly drunk anymore. Or, at least not as bad
as earlier. I just wanted this stupid night to end so I
could get home to bed and sleep off the residual effects of
our partying. All I needed now was for Keith to grab some
pants and a shirt that I could wear until we collapsed into
our beds.
I waited in the darkness of the buildings as I heard their
dog start barking and carrying on. Suddenly someone shouted
"Hey, who's out there!" Then the sound of someone running
toward me. Around the corner Keith ran carrying something
with him, "Hurry up Toad, I think the guy's got a gun!"
We ran until we were both out of breath, slowing down we
entered a wooded area. Keith paused so we could catch our
breath. Breathing heavy he said, "I tried to get you some
pants but when he flipped on the porch light I just grabbed
whatever I could and ran like hell!"
Tossing me the article of clothing "Sorry Toad, it's the
best I could do under the circumstances. I lifted up the
article and at first glance I thought it was a shirt but it
was too long for that.
Realizing what I held in my hands, "Damn it Keith, you
grabbed a dress!"
He shrugged, "It has to be drier than what you have on
now..."
I just glared at him. "This day just keeps getting worse!"
Slowly and rather embarrassed, I pulled the bright yellow
garment over my head. As it settled down around my waist I
cringed as Keith was sitting there smiling. To make matters
worse, there were these pleats in the chest area that no
matter what I did, it wanted to push out and give the
illusion of breasts. I rolled my eyes as I kept pressing in
the material, watching it pop back out.
"This is great... just great!" I said sarcastically.
With a big stupid grin on his face Keith stifled a laugh,
"Hey Toad, you look great... think you'd want to go to a
movie after this?"
"Screw you! " I spat.
I stood there wearing that thing and just shaking my
head... the bright spot was that at least I was a bit
warmer considering the little that I was covered. I noticed
Keith holding his ears as if he were in pain and that's
when I noticed my own were feeling discomfort, as if there
was a sudden drop in air pressure.
The pain was becoming intense, "Damn, what's causing that?"
winced Keith.
"I don't know, seems I remember something being said about
this condition right before a tornado." I said scanning the
sky. "I hope it quits soon, it's starting to become damn
annoying!"
As we stood there the pain became more and more intense, so
much that we fell to our knees in pain. Keith placed both
palms against his ears in an attempt to shut out the
pressure. I fell onto my back as the pounding within my
head became so severe that I actually felt ill. I turned
facing Keith and my world suddenly became darker as the
pain engulfed me, slowly losing contact with what was
reality and causing me to black out.
***
Rolling to my side, I looked around taking in my
surroundings, apparently the alcohol was still affecting my
system. I tried to set up, but finding that somehow I
couldn't force my muscles to work. I couldn't see anything
of Keith as I twisted my head back and forth and rose up
but couldn't understand why I wasn't able to move any more
than I did. I realized that it wasn't an alcohol induced
illusion, but instead something very real and frightening
happening.
Struggling viciously in my trap, I thrashed myself about
trying to break the unseen bonds that held me. I heard a
soft sound somewhere over my head, out of view, and I
tilted back to see the maker of the sound. My eyes met a
strange creature, which slowly slithered as if floating on
a film of slime like a snail. It rounded my gurney, and
leaned in to look at me.
It's eyes, if that was what you wanted to call them, were
deep in color, not black, maybe more of an oily dark blue.
I could see my reflection in them as I lay there, they were
almost as if I were looking into a deep blue mirror. I
found my head pulling back away from the gelatinous
creature in fear as a sticky, filmy digit extended out and
toward me.
It halted its advance and returned to just viewing me as I
lay there. Slowly it moved around the table, the sound of
its movement reminded me of something extremely sticky
being pealed off of a table.
Slowly the gurney began to rise toward this iridescent tan
creature, I pushed my head back against the cushion to try
and move away. As my movement stopped at 90 degrees, I was
forced to face this disgusting creature. Suddenly, my mind
was filled with a pure mental energy. It seemed as though
it was reading my mind or trying to probe it somehow. It
was almost as if it were downloading the information I had
contained within my mind as thoughts, dreams, fears and
stimulation's were being siphoned off. Nothing was really
removed, just mapped and catalogued in some strange mental
way that I couldn't understand but could feel.
I started to pick up a word or two in a language strange to
me and it was like the creature was trying to communicate,
not with it's voice but rather with its mind. I could see
nowhere on it any evidence of a mouth. It must have zeroed
in on my language as I got the sensation that I was to
remain calm and I wouldn't be harmed. I wondered if getting
the shit scared out of me was classified as harm.
Its words began to permeate into my mind as it started to
try and communicate:
*You and your companion have been acquired for a test we
wish to conduct on earthly beings... you will not be
harmed. Please do not fear us, we only seek to learn from
your race. As I am communicating with you, your friend is
also being debriefed in an adjoining room. Please don't
fear us.*
I tried to relax, but it could sense my concern. I was
trying to think of something to ask it but the only thing
that came to me was why was I immobilized if it didn't want
to harm me. But even before I could form the words, it
spoke to my mind:
*The binding force is only used to prevent your injury
while you rested.*
I realized that it could read my thoughts... it must be how
they communicate. As if by cue it responded to my mind:
*Yes, many eons ago we lost our ability to vocalize with
what you would refer as a mouth, since our food is absorbed
into our skin, we didn't need that bothersome ability
anymore. We had developed a way of interacting with each
other using our minds, as you can see, it works well for
us.*
So we began to communicate using our minds, I was surprised
that the alcohol wasn't effecting my conversation when he
interjected his thoughts:
*We did find a high amount of fermented fruit in your
system and we removed it. The fermented contents made it
hard to communicate with your companion so we extracted it
from both of you.*
'Why are you keeping us here?' I questioned mentally.
*As I told you earlier, you and your companion will be used
as test subjects for the survival of our species. I feel
the look of horror you are experiencing and must put that
to rest. We are not going to mate with you or your
companion, we just want to study your biologics and try to
apply that to our species. We procreate by cell division as
your species does, we just do it externally where your
species does it internally. We want to develop it so we can
protect our young in a controlled environment as your wombs
do. Our young are exposed to air and that has an adverse
effect on them, we have tried to seal them into chambers
but have found that they still need stimulation to develop
at a acceptable level.*
It paused and continued to stare at me with a blank
expression before continuing:
*We have noticed anomalies in your individual `system that
makes procreation impossible. We have now begun the steps
to rectify those anomalies, allowing you to continue
creating your species. Your companion has been found to be
satisfactory and will be an excellent subject, however we
had to use some of his biological perimeters to correct
your anomalies. We have also used the cerebral patterns and
stimuli from you to correct your own impurities and
imperfections... this will allow the success of our testing
to continue.*
I watched as the creature slid over toward a control panel
and his long index finger extended toward the brightly
colored grid. I thought out another question for it, 'What
anomalies are you talking about? Am I dying?'
It turned to face me and projected its thought into my
mind:
*In a sense, you will die without change. Your species will
never produce offspring since your biologics are not
compatible with your companion.*
We were interrupted as two more creatures entered into the
room along with Keith. The doorway they entered from
vanished into the wall so there wasn't any seam. I looked
toward Keith and he smiled weakly at me shrugging his
shoulders.
'Why am I bound and he's free?' I asked.
*Before we can release you, we must repair your anomalies
and make you complete.* It responded.
"Complete? Complete for what?" I spoke forgetting that it
could read my thoughts.
*Why, to allow you to reproduce, we can't expect you to be
a test subject with all of your imperfect anomalies.* It
reasoned.
"Don't you friggen touch me you bastard... Keith...
Keith... help me get out of here!" I started to throw my
head back and forth in an attempt to break away from by
unseen bonds.
*Your companion is unable to help, we have bound him with a
force to protect him and keep him from interfering with our
testing.* It reached over and pressed a square on the grid.
Suddenly the room was filled with a bright light, Keith
clamped his eyes closed and stood in his invisible bonds. I
continued to thrash my head back and forth but couldn't
escape my gurney. My skin became hot as the powerful light
felt, as it would burn me to a crisp. Pain racked my system
as the brilliant light enveloped me in its beam. I felt my
legs and arms twitching with involuntary abandon as I was
bathed in its path.
My flesh continued to crawl as I lay there bound to the
table, every part of my being ached with the beam's searing
pain. I opened my mouth and released a blood curdling and
agonizing yell, which slowly inched its way high and higher
in pitch. It felt as my body was slowly turned inside out
and then back again. My stomach began to convulse and I
found myself spewing copious amounts of vomit as the white
hot wave continued its inspection and aggravation of my
body.
I felt horrible as the pain began to subside and feeling
slowly started to return to acceptable levels. Sweat
started to trickle down my neck as perspiration began to
seep from my body as if I was under a faucet. A small
droplet rolled down onto my upper chest and strangely
became directed to the left and center. I was weak from my
ordeal and I found my body reacting differently to each
sensation received. The gurney I was on slowly started to
settle back as I found myself staring at the ceiling again.
Slowly my consciousness was ebbed from me as my strength
had been. I felt that if I could close my eyes and rest,
everything would be better. My body began to relax, as each
muscle would twitch as if I had no control, finally, sleep
overcame me
***
I sat in the warm sand watching the waves break along the
shore, while overhead, a seagull squawked out his call. A
soft breeze blew toward my face gently moving my hair as if
it were being caressed. I drew my knees into my chest and
closed my eyes enjoying the sounds of the surf, listening
as each wave rolled in, I marveled at the very creation of
nature and all of its splendor.
Glancing around I sought Keith's whereabouts, I assumed he
had gone running again. Standing, I brushed the sand from
my bottom and picked up my sandals and began to walk down
to the water. I paused and stared at the sandals I now had
in my hand.
"Now where did I get those from?"
Trying to remember what had transpired over the last few
days but came up empty.
"The last thing I could remember was throwing one of them
at Keith... if I did that, where did these come from?" I
shrugged to myself and continued toward the playful surf.
I stretched onto my toes at the waters edge and did a slow
spiral, as my face lifted toward the crystal clear blue sky
enjoying the warmth of the sun. The quiet breeze gently
moving my garment with its soft lilting delight, as my hair
tickled against my cheek disturbed by the gentle sea breeze
I was enjoying. I started to feel a bit hungry and began
the slow trek toward home where I could fix a bite to eat.
As I climbed the long steps that started near the beach and
extended toward the house, I had a wave of uneasiness wash
over me. It didn't feel right, as if something was out of
place. I couldn't understand it, but I knew that I would
figure it out eventually. I paused at the top of the stairs
and turned to look out upon the vast expanse of the
sparkling blue ocean. God how I loved this place.
As I approached the door, I watched a family unloading
groceries in our little cul-de-sac, they all seemed so
helpful. Again the feeling of uneasiness washed over me, I
didn't remember that family ever moving in. Extreme
puzzlement permeated my mind as I slowly reached for the
handle. Even as I turned my attention to this house I
didn't feel right. It seemed normal, but just didn't fit
with what I thought I remembered about my home. It was
almost a feeling as if I were entering someone else's home.
Pushing the door open I called out to Keith, hearing no
answer I headed toward the kitchen. Have you ever walked
into a room and felt as though you had been there before?
If you had, you would understand my feeling, only it was in
reverse.
I stood in the middle of the kitchen and looked around,
everything seemed to be in its place. But that nagging
feeling kept overwhelming me, and yet this was the same
home that I had lived for the past year. I opened up the
refrigerator and peered inside, pulling out different items
as if I were on autopilot. After about 15 minutes, I backed
away to survey my accomplishment. I realized that I had
just made lunch for two without really thinking about it.
But why...
A trembling hand found its way to my mouth, was I having a
break down? What was going on inside my head? Was I losing
my mind? Why did I keep having the feeling that everything
wasn't as it should be? I felt a tear drift down my cheek,
I had to get control of myself. Leaving the two meals
sitting there at the table waiting to be eaten, I started
down the hallway trying to wipe away the salty fluid
exiting my eyes. I reached for the handle of the faucet and
let the cool water run through my fingertips. I needed to
get a grip on myself, I knew that something wasn't right
and it was having an adverse effect on me.
Filling my palms with the comforting water I created a
puddle with which I could bathe my face in. I relished the
coolness of the water as I continued to splash it over my
face and eyes. Feeling a bit better, I stood up and reached
for a towel next to the sink. Standing there holding the
soft cloth I stared into the image in the mirror. Nothing
seemed out of place, the same face stared back at me as it
always had.
I took the towel and patted my face dry, watching the
figure in the mirror do likewise. I concentrated on the
image, looking at her delicate hands and the way she held
the soft cloth. I could tell that she was quite lovely
but... something didn't feel right about her reflection.
Dropping the towel on the counter, I studied this
reflection more. That I was beautiful would have been an
understatement, many have told me so before. Something
about this attractive woman looking back at me wasn't
right, almost as if there should be another image
reflecting back at me.
I told myself that I was being silly and without thinking
picked up a brush and began to pull it through my long
golden hair. Right in mid pull I paused as another wave of
strange feelings washed over me. Using my free hand, I
lifted a small shimmering lock and held it out in front of
me. My eyes drifted from the lock to the woman in the
mirror and back again...
"Yellow hair?" Thinking to myself? "Since when did I have
yellow hair?" It was true, I could distinctly remember
having brown hair, sure it was light but nothing like the
golden tresses I now had.
Letting the hair fall back against my skin, my eyes were
drawn to the exposed area of my upper chest. Everything
looked normal, I straightened the strap of my bra.
"What the heck about this reflection seemed so strange?"
Brushing smooth my dress I shrugged my shoulders, smiled
nervously at myself and walked back into the kitchen.
Walking past the table I paused and looked at the lunch
that I just prepared, I decided that I would wait for a few
more minutes. I started toward the living room and stopped,
"Why would I wait? What reason do I have for waiting?" I
questioned myself. Things weren't adding up and that is
what was troubling me.
Setting down in an overstuffed chair, I drew my feet up and
tucked them under me. Slowly I ran my hand down the calf of
my smooth leg, feeling the pleasure of having silky soft
legs. Again, I shuddered, as this feeling was odd. Leaning
back in the chair I looked toward the ceiling, feeling the
soft brush of my dangling turquoise earrings. I shook my
head and felt the swishing of my soft hair on the back of
my neck. Everything seemed so strange and out of place, and
yet, it seemed normal as any other day.
Letting out a sigh I looked again at the sandals that I had
deposited near the door, what was it about those sandals
that didn't seem right? I closed my eyes and rested, still
remembering the evening that Keith and I went to the little
Mexican restaurant and started our bar hopping. We were so
drunk that I remembered falling down a hill and Keith
carried me back up. I frowned as I remembered Keith making
me mad enough to throw my sandal at him. For an instant I
thought about that sandal... I could almost see that it
wasn't the sandal of a woman, it couldn't have been mine.
But I remembered pulling the huge manly sandal off of my
foot and throwing it at him.
Hearing a door close behind me I turned to see Keith walk
in and drop his shirt on the floor. "I hope you will pick
that up eventually." I said. Frowning I thought about my
comment, why would I care about whether he picked it up or
not. Again another wave of uneasiness washed over me.
He walked to the back of the chair and leaned over the top
so his head was upside down to me. "Why the troubled look
babe?" His hands draped over my shoulders and curiously
hung over my rounded breasts. His thumbs stroking them as
he looked deeply into my eyes as if searching for what was
troubling me.
I closed my eyes enjoying the subtle touch on my nipples as
he gently kissed my upturned mouth. "Come on little Toad,
give me a smile." I did.
Suddenly as if my mind decided that now was the time to
open up I asked him to repeat himself. He smiled and said
again, "Come on and give me a smile."
I frowned, "That's not what you said, I'm sure you called
me Toad." Images began to flood into my memory.
"Yeah, you're right... I did say Toad. But that's my pet
name for you, just like sweetie, dear or honey. I've always
called you Toad."
"Oh my God!" I trembled as I pushed his hands away. "What's
happened to me?"
Keith looked at me as though I were nuts, "Nothing's
happened to you... babe!" Avoiding the "Toad" comment that
had just sent me off the deep end.
I stood up and moved away from him, "I remember that you
used to tease me with Toad because of my name... Ted!" I
watched as his face paled, "Oh my God... oh God... why?
How?" I fell to the floor crying. It seemed that all of the
blood had suddenly drained from me. "I was a man, your
cousin... how did I get this way?" Tearfully slapping the
floor in anger.
Keith sat on the couch, "I remember now... the white room
with the light!" He stared at me with surprise. "How did
they turn you into... into... her?"
"Her? Her who?" I asked between tears.
"Those things... they asked me to visualize what I thought
a perfect woman would look like. And... and... oh shit." He
paused realizing that he sentenced me to this fate.
I looked at him and realized that I also was at fault and
told him so, "They also asked me what my vision of the
perfect male would be and... my God... I did that to you.
You never used to be that buff. Where did your beer belly
go? Now look at you with your hairless bronze chest
rippling with musc..." My voice trailed off as I felt my
face begin to flush.
He stood up and held out his hand to help me up. I pushed
it away. "They told me that we would be their test... my
companion and I. Oh God, you are the companion they spoke
of." I stepped around the chair placing it between us. He
had a blank look on his face. "God Keith, how could anyone
so gorgeous be so naive?" Realizing what I said made me
begin to tremble. Keith smiled.
I tried not to look, but he was chiseled like a Greek God.
I felt warmth deep within my being. He backed up a step
realizing what was going on, "Oh shit, we are supposed to
show them how we create babies... shit... shit... shit!" He
looked down at the floor, "I can't do it with you... you
were a man, my cousin for Christ sake!"
"Tell me about it!" I responded looking down at myself.
"Look at me... I look like a friggin model or something!"
In a wistful whisper, he responded, "I'll say... you're
beautiful!"
"You just keep your distance mister! I ain't going to be
bonked like some girlfriend of yours... I ain't going to be
bonked at all... by anybody!" I said holding my hand out in
front of me as if I were a traffic cop.
A strange sucking sound could be heard behind me, causing
us to both to face that way. There in front was one of the
creatures painted vividly in my memory.
*I can see that the mind block didn't work, we shall have
to try a different avenue of direction.*
"I'm afraid you grabbed the wrong two... asshole, first of
all... I'm not a woman! Second, even if I was interested in
your genetic sculpture there, I couldn't do anything
anyway, because we are related." I said smiling smugly.
*Try telling him that!* The creature said pointing toward
Keith's direction. *You are the very creature he said would
be his perfect female. The removal of your anomalies
allowed you to become what he wanted... 100% of what he
wanted.* It's words echoed in my mind.
"But we're related... he's my cousin... we can't... I
won't" I cried.
*We eradicated that anomaly with your change. You are no
longer his relation, you are the perfect specimen... the
perfect couple.* It calculated silently into my mind. *As
for not wanting, we have ways around that.*
We both watched as he removed a sphere and broke it open
allowing a white gas to enter the room with us. Slowly he
backed out of the room and disappeared into our wall. I
looked over at Keith and we both stepped away from the
perfumed gas.
"What is it?" I asked Keith.
"I don't have a clue, but I don't want anything to do with
it!" He said with a horrifying look on his face as he
backed away from the slowly disappearing fog.
"I'm starting to feel funny... kind of warm." I trembled.
"I'm feeling it too!"
He was concentrating, trying to keep his mind occupied. I
could see that whatever he was doing, wasn't working as his
shaft was beginning to rise. Slowly sweat began to form on
his forehead. I backed completely against the wall to
escape the area where the creature released the vapor.
I found my breath becoming short and raspy, thinking that
we have been poisoned I moved toward a window in an effort
to pry it open. I watched as my trembling hand reached for
the window lock but hesitated and instead pulled me toward
a high back upholstered chair. I knelt in the seat and
arched my back, I couldn't even control my muscles.
Looking over my shoulder, Keith was shaking violently
trying to fight the same effects that were controlling me.
I was much smaller and it appeared that the results were
having a greater result on my small frame than they were on
him. I could see my reflection on a bank of full-length
mirrors at the end of the living room, slowly gyrating my
hips in a seductive dance. I felt my tongue as if it had a
mind of its own slowly lick my lips, I couldn't control my
actions.
Keith still shaking, fought his movements as he took one
step in my direction. My unbridled body began to ache for
him, starting with a very alien feeling of want or need. My
hands started across my breasts and slowly pushed downward
over my flat smooth stomach and ended at my crotch.
I massaged myself with my fingertips as I spoke to Keith
with a quivering voice. "I... I can't stop myself... can't
fight it."
"You... you must... I don't know ho... how long I can hold
out." His voice shook with emotion.
My body crawled to the floor like a cat as I began to cross
toward him. With no ability to control what I was doing my
eyes became fixated on his rock hard shaft. He fell to his
knees and tried to pull himself up using the couch.
"I have never... ugh... never been... mmh... this hard...
ugh... before. I feel like I'm going to... exp... explode!"
I watched as his shaft grew in length and came out the leg
of his shorts.
"No way, baby... not there... in me!" I managed to say. "Oh
my God... it's... it's controlling... m... my... voice
too!" I cried as my hand was forcing itself to reach for
his manly weapon. "Nooooo... I... I can't."
He was still trying to raise himself up to stand but as my
hand touched him, he thrust his hips toward me as if he
were inviting me to taste his fruit.
"Uh... ugh... must fight it!"
My tiny hand slowly stroked down toward his bag as he began
to moan. I couldn't stop myself from tracing lightly each
vein that bulged out on his organ. With one of his hands he
raised it and trembling like with palsy, slowly moved it
toward my head. I shook my head as if it would shake off
the feeling of this unnatural action of mine. I allowed my
head to be pushed into his huge throbbing organ. My mouth
began to kiss and nuzzle the rock hard muscle as I slowly
felt my hands pulling his shorts down to expose the sight
that my body wanted. As his unfettered organ sprung up, I
felt a dampness between my legs that was nothing like I
have ever felt before.
"God... g... god... no... I can't."
I shook with fear. My mouth was forced open against my will
and found itself wrapping my lips around his erection. It
was so large I felt the corners of my mouth ache with over
stretching. He started to move his hips as my hands found
their way to the base of his shaft. I couldn't even wrap
one hand completely around this monster of his.
"N... no... fight... fight... it... I... can't... do...
this to you!" Keith grunted out. I looked up and saw a tear
roll down his cheek, "I... I'm... so... ugh... sorry...
I... I would... never... mmm... ugh!"
My head continued bobbing faster and faster as his hips
maintained each stroke with the same rhythm. Each of his
large hands holding the side of my head as if directing me
faster and faster.
"I... can't... hold... much... longer... I... ugh...
must... fight... this fee... feeling."
Breathing through my nose in short stimulated bursts I kept
up my motion, I had a feeling that I was going to be driven
all the way by this mind controlling mist. Suddenly I heard
a grunt and felt the tip of his rod swell and begin to
pulse. I felt the seed spray deep into my mouth and had
hoped that this would finally release me from this prison
of my mind. I was wrong.
He continued to press his stiff pole into my mouth until
all of his seed had been expelled and I had coughed and
gagged on it. I found my head able to move backward and
this allowed me to release his pole. His hands dropped to
the side and the look in his eyes almost made me cry.
"I'm so sorry... I couldn't control it." he whispered.
Using my hand I wiped his seed from my lips and cheek, I
felt so embarrassed. I turned my back to him and started to
cry. I felt him come over in a very protective way and
place his hand on my shoulder.
"If I could have prevented this from happening, you know I
would." His hand was resting on my shoulder when I saw his
fingers began to tremble, "Oh... g... God... no... it's...
it's happening... again!"
I watched in horror as his hands slowly began to gather the
material of my dress up and pull it off. What made me
concerned more was that I was allowing it to happen without
a fight. I knew that unless I put up a struggle, I was
doomed.
"Please... no... don't le... let... let this... happen...
to... me!"
I found my arms willing to help him remove my dress and
watched as I flipped it on the couch. Fighting with a
supreme effort I found myself turning to face him. My hands
by my side sought out his rapidly expanding tool.
As I looked into his eyes I could see tears welling there,
I knew he had no more control than I did... but still we
tried to fight the need. He lifted me up into the air where
I wrapped my legs around his waist allowing my exposed pert
globes for him to suckle. His mouth expertly pulled one in
making my groin twitch with excitement as my head tilted
back allowing him greater access. I could feel my golden
hair brush my bare bottom as he moved to the other breast
to continue his kissing.
I raised my head at the same moment he did and our eyes
met, he finally spoke, "Forgive... Brandi... th... this
need is... too great!"
Slowly our lips met and I pulled him into me. Our kiss
lasted long and was very passionate as our tongues sought
out each other. I felt tears roll down my cheek as we held
our prolonged kiss.
"I... I'm... afraid... we won't... be able to... res...
resist... uh... until... we go all... the way." His voice
became raspy with desire.
"I... I... know... I... pro... promise... that... I...
won't... hold it... against... you! I know... ugh...
your... trying... to fight it... just... oh... uh... like
I... am."
Breathing was becoming difficult in our passionate embrace.
I could feel all of the tell tale signs that women
experience when aroused... and believe me, I had them all.
I tried to force myself to let go of his neck but all I
succeeded in doing was pulling him closer. The sensation of
something pressing against my exposed wet vagina caused me
to experience two emotions... one of fear, the fear of
having unprotected sex with a man... the other of
excitement... excitement of having unprotected sex with a
man.
Much to my concern his hands stroked my bottom as he
maneuvered me over his shaft, and me trying to assist with
his efforts. Slowly his head came into contact with my
sweet spot and I began to involuntarily shudder with
excitement. His hands slid up to my back as he held my
light body over his engorged shaft. I found myself began to
move my hips in an effort to get him to lower me but he
continued to hold me there.
"P... please... I... need... release!" I pleaded.
Slowly he lowered me down a fraction at a time until I had
engulfed his entire length deep inside me. I watched his
eyes as he started to move me up and down his shaft, I
almost thought I saw the hint of a smile. I pulled a sexy
lower lip into my mouth and held it there, he began to
smile.
"Why... uh... are you... ugh... smiling?" I asked.
"I... m... nev... never... thought... I... would... be...
ugh... doing... this... to... you... toad." He said not
even breaking his rhythm.
"Nor... um... ugh... I." I gasped as he began to quicken
his pace.
He grimaced, "I'll... help... you if... ugh... we ever...
get out... of... this."
Suddenly I became very vocal as I felt the first female
orgasm of my life, "You... better... he... help... me...
o... ou... oh... oh... Oh... uh... mmm... OH... OH... MY
GOD... OH... YES... UH... OH... GOD... MORE... Uh... uh...
oh... oh... Oh... Oh... OH... UGH... UH... YES! YES! OH!"
Slowly my body was returning to a very pleasurable state,
Keith was still buried in me but I couldn't stop myself
from smiling and kissing him on his face and neck. Keith
didn't even break his stride as he slowly settled back and
lowered himself to the couch.
"What's... uh... wrong..." I grunted as he continued to
manipulate me on his shaft.
"My back... is... hurting." he said as he rested his head
on the back of the couch.
Trying hard to cease my ministrations of pleasuring him as
well as my unwilling self, I found that I couldn't stop. It
was as if I were a puppet in the hands of these alien
creatures, unable to control any aspect of my body,
especially when it came to love making.
I watched as if I were viewing a movie before me, each of
my knees at his sides while I continued to be impaled by
his tower. My hands were on his shoulders, I looked down as
I watched the obvious gyrations of my pendulous breasts as
they moved along in rhythm of my sexual situation. I tried
to fight the mind control that they had trapped us in with
earnest. I had to find a way to release myself. Even with
fighting against the will... or want, I couldn't do any
more than slow myself down. I began to feel another orgasm
build within me, it's power beginning to become greater
than my resistance.
I felt sweat beading on my upper lip and chest, looking
toward Keith I could see that his face began to redden with
his attempt to prevent our love making from continuing. He
opened his eyes wide and let out a deep sigh that broke in
mid stream.
"Hhhhugh... It's happening... again!" Was all he could say.
My body was now on autopilot as I went along for the ride.
Leaning over him as I rode his organ, I watched as his face
raised toward mine.
"God... I... I'm... so sorry... B... Brandi!"
"Brandi... who... is Brandi?" I asked, as I doubled my
efforts to bring the orgasm to completion.
"It's you... you're Brandi!" he shouted as lurched forward
and wrapped his powerful arms around me.
"Oh... oh... NOOOOO!"
Again the power of sexual stimulation overwhelmed me as we
reached a simultaneous climax. His seed being pushed into
me with each pulse of his organ, I arched my back throwing
my breasts toward his hot kisses. His head fell back toward
the couch and I lay against him still straddling his pole.
We kissed in that position as my long golden hair fell
about our faces like a shroud.
He lowered his head and kissed my hanging breast, "My God
Toad, I can't believe what just happened!" His breath was
ragged and labored. "It was as if I couldn't stop myself
even if I wanted to."
I pushed myself back, "What do you mean by, even if I
wanted to?" I was sure that my face paled, "Weren't you
fighting the control too?"
He looked down at the floor in embarrassment, "At first I
did... now, I'm not so sure."
"Oh God, Why?" I tried to stifle a cry by raising a very
delicate feminine hand to my mouth. I sat sullen in thought
of what he had just implied, "How could he?" I questioned
myself.
He continued, "When they asked me what type of woman I
would be attracted to, I thought of a girl I knew from
college named Brandi. I guess, I forgot about it really
being you... and started thinking of the girl straddling
my... uh... rod as her."
Slapping the flat of my hand against his chiseled pectoral
muscle, I winced at the pain I received... it was like
smacking cement.
"How could you?" Rubbing my sore hand, "I fought against it
from the very beginning! By not fighting the compulsion to
have sex, you have violated me!" I feigned anger, knowing
that I could never really be mad at Keith.
He stretched his arms out and folded them behind his head.
I felt a flutter as my eyes devoured his deeply tanned
upper body and it's chiseled features.
He rotated his hips a bit and answered my question, "If you
feel I've violated you... then why haven't you climbed off
of my lap?"
I looked down at myself, it was true that I was still being
impaled by his softening member. I had forgotten the
position that the alien gas left me in, this was very
embarrassing. I jumped as he dropped his arms down onto my
silky smooth thighs and slid them toward my hips. I stopped
his advance with my tiny hands, which he gently grasped and
brought to his mouth and kissed them.
I fought back a smile, knowing full well that even though I
was forced to have sex without objection by their mind
controlling mist... I did enjoy it. That was the thought
which troubled me. I watched as he lowered my hands against
his powerful chest and gently rose to take my face in their
grasp.
Slowly pulling my willing mouth toward his but instead
turning my head just enough to kiss my small ears and
whisper, "You're still riding me... Brandi." Then with one
last kiss he left go of my cheek.
"Uh...oh, I'm sorry."
Climbing off and backing away from him, he was finally able
to stand up. I couldn't believe how gorgeous he had become,
he was absolutely beautiful. Standing at 6'6", he had been
transformed into my vision of what the perfect male would
look like...
"God, I did that?"
"Did what?" he responded.
"They read my thoughts too... I made you into one hell of a
stud." I found my gaze looking longingly at his form, he
noticed me staring and winked.
"I never realized that you thought of me in that way... a
stud?" He said smiling.
I flinched at the thought of what I just said, "They asked
me of what my opinion of the perfect male specimen would be
and I thought of... what you have become."
"You're pretty damn fine yourself!" He said looking up and
down my petite frame. "I remember Brandi being about 5'3 or
5'4"... you have got to be in that neighborhood too. But I
think you're a bit bigger in the chest than she was." He
reached out and lifted my golden hair, "A hell of alot
prettier than she could ever dream of being!"
I felt so tiny standing next to him, I judged that I would
only come to just below his perfectly formed shoulder. I
felt myself becoming aroused but quickly changed the
subject.
"Do you suppose they will let us go now that we have...
done it?"
"Maybe, at least I hope so." he said rubbing his rippling
stomach.
I noticed that he was wearing a ring on his left hand and
wondered where he got it from, "Where did you pick that
up?" I said pointing at his ring.
"Probably the same place you got the one on your hand." he
replied as if it were commonplace.
I glanced down at the direction he was pointing, and there
it was, perched on a dainty enameled tipped finger was a
sparkling white diamond and matching wedding band. In a
very feminine gesture I held my hand out and watched the
light from the window reflect in the stone. How could I
have missed seeing that?
I tried to remove it but although it would spin comfortably
on my finger, I couldn't remove it to save my ass. He
noticed me trying to pull it off, "I already tried to get
mine off. It won't release."
It was bad enough that we had to have sex but for crying
out loud, why were they trying to make us be a couple! I
threw my hands up in frustration, "I don't understand, why
make us believe we were married?"
"Uh... I think that's my fault." he frowned. "I'm a
virgin... or at least I was." He looked away as I glared at
him. "When they asked me, I told them that I would never
think of having sex with anyone other than my wife." He
shrugged his manly shoulder, "So... I guess you can blame
me!"
I looked at him sadly as I tried to force my way past his
huge frame, he held me up and hugged me into his chest. "I
promise, no matter what happens... I'll take care of you.
Or... at least... make sure your taken care of."
I found myself glaring at him and pulling away, "You and
your stupid fantasies have done this to me! You're damn
straight going to owe me... big time!" I turned and headed
toward the bathroom, I had to wash this mess off of me.
As I walked past the kitchen I threw my arm in the general
direction of the table saying, "If you're hungry, there's
supper!"
"What about you?" He shouted as I closed the bathroom door.
I leaned against the inside of the door and sighed, slowly
tracing circles on my smooth stomach, "I'm not hungry...
anymore." I looked back at the closed door and gently
caressed it, "I've already eaten."
Turning the bath on I began to climb into the tub, I
thought about what had just happened in our living room.
Correcting myself I said aloud, "I mean, that living room!"
Relishing the feeling of the warm water, I began to think
about spreading my legs for a man... for Keith.
"This is so degrading for me, he at least got to keep his
dick!"
I thought. 'His dick...his magnificent throbbing muscle.'
What the heck am I thinking... I felt myself become
aroused, "God I'm even starting to think like a woman. We
just have to find a way out of this mess."
Leaning against the back of the tub I rested letting the
cool water slowly envelop my body. My breasts began to
float and sway in the water as I lay there with my eyes
closed. I could smell a type of fruit scent drifting close
by but couldn't place the variety... If I would have had my
eyes open I could have seen it coming.
A thin veil of fog was permeating the room and just as
quickly as it developed, it disappeared. I began to hum a
song from my youth as I started to wash my hair. Even
listening to my voice caused me to remember what those
creatures had done to me. After working my gloriously
blonde hair into a lather I started to rinse it. Wrapping
my hair into a towel, I picked up a razor, which had been
conveniently placed within reach and filled my hand with a
scented foam. Slowly and seductively, I began to smooth it
over my legs and began to pull the razor through the foam.
Once done I pulled the plug on the tub and gently stepped
out and on the rug. Taking down another towel I wrapped it
around my body and tucked it into my breasts.
Pausing for a moment in front of the mirror I decided that
I needed to freshen up my face for Keith, even though it
would be bedtime soon. I lightly used my eyeliner and
traced around my eyes just enough to make them even more
expressive, the mascara produced the desired effect as they
darkened and extended my eyelashes. Glancing toward a watch
laying on the counter I realized that it would be enough
and anyway, it would be dark soon, I needed to get ready
for bed.
***
Pulling his shorts back on he looked into the kitchen,
figuring that after what he went through he needed a
diversion. Anything would be better than mounting his best
friend, well... okay, maybe not if she looked like the
knockout that he just pumped.
Keith sat down to his light meal, which he washed down with
a beer. He found it hard to realize that he just made love
to his best friend and cousin.
"But wait, didn't that thing say that genetically, we
weren't cousins anymore?" Keith smiled as he reasoned out
his problem. If he could only make himself accept the fact
that Ted was now Brandi and had a dynamite little hot body.
He just shook his head and rested it into his hands... "God
I'm in such a mess!"
Setting there hiding his face he could smell a fruity
candle or something, it wasn't an unpleasent smell and he
found that he kind of liked it.
He looked across the table at Brandi's meal, "Didn't she
say that she wasn't hungry?" Smiling, he traded plates with
hers and began to eat. He thought about their passionate
love making and shrugged his shoulders, "I'm glad that she
picked me and not those other guys." He smiled at the
vision of her riding his tool, "One damn fine piece of
ass!"
After about an hour of putzing around in the kitchen he
headed for their garage, he just started to tinker with a
small motor when he felt dainty hands reach around his
waist. He looked down and saw Brandi's sexy hands as they
lowered themselves to his crotch.
***
I felt around his hardened bottom and placed both hands on
his crotch, even in a flaccid state it was huge. I kissed
his back as he began to try and turn toward me.
"You coming back for more?" He asked.
"I was just wondering when you were coming to bed?" I
asked.
I gave his member a slight squeeze and turned to walk to
the door. I know that I was having the desired effect on my
husband, he wouldn't be long. I suggestively swayed my hips
as I slowly walked to the door in my white satin and lace
teddy. Pausing at the door I glanced back at him and
winked. I let my arm slide down the wall so it would be the
last thing he would see... until he finally put away those
dirty tools and come make love to his wife.
Keith dropped the tools into his toolbox and headed down to
take a quick shower. "Can't pass that up... ever!" He
smiled as he began to undress and step into the stream of
water.
***
The creatures all nodded at each other as the sweet mist
was released into the rooms, it would leave each feeling as
though everything was normal again. This time they used a
much more powerful blocking agent than the earlier one.
*The last time their coupling didn't give us satisfactory
results we were looking for, although it did provide us
with a wealth of information that we will be able to use.*
The leader projected to the others.
Another in the room, standing next to the colored grid
turned, *It's just a matter of time... eventually we will
succeed!*
A third thought out, *It was a brilliant stroke to return
them to their planet, as a couple, they will live out their
lives with none the wiser. Once we are sure of a
satisfactory result, we will meet with them one last time
and depart.*
The trio all nodded in agreement, *Now that the anomalies
have been transformed into a perfect subject, I'm sure that
we will eventually see success!*
The first one moved closer to the holographic screen, *What
shall we do if the mind block doesn't work.* He turned to
face the others, *Their minds are more complicated than we
give them credit for.*
*This species has been known to fight the mind blocks.* It
paused as the others turned to face it, *In some of our
earliest tests the subjects who were administered the mind
block... became imbalanced.*
*Let us not forget to mention the change of the smaller
subject, those anomalies were also present in the other one
as well.* It paused as it looked from one to another, *That
change alone could also spell doom for our experiment!*
The apparent leader slid his way toward the holographic
screen, *We must give it a chance. These subjects seem to
be accepting the mind block for now... if it fails, we will
just have to let nature follow its course.* Placing its
hands behind the sticky back, *The residual effects of the
naturalizing spray may be enough to keep them interested in
each other even if the blocking agent doesn't work. Only
time will tell.*
The others nodded in agreement as they turned to face the
screen.
***
I pulled back the covers and crawled in drawing up the cool
sheets against my freshly shaven legs. I have always loved
the feeling when I first shave my legs and feel their silky
smoothness against the sheets.
Trying to figure out what to do until Keith comes to bed, I
picked up my book next to the bed and began reading. My
diamond's sparkling keep distracting me as I turned the
page, exactly what was it about that ring that kept making
me feel funny?
I folded the book closed and dropped it back on the
nightstand, I didn't understand why I would have bought a
Danielle Steele book for in the first place. I knew that I
had just purchased it, but couldn't remember actually
buying it from a store.
I could hear Keith taking his shower, "I so loved it when
he came to bed after taking his showers... his aftershave
lotion drives me crazy!" I thought to myself. I giggled as
I heard him break into a song while showering, he always
could make me laugh.
Finally, after about 20 minutes, the bathroom door opened.
There was a wave of hot humidity that rushed out into the
room as he stepped into our bedroom. Smiling he only had a
towel wrapped around his waist. He stood next to the bed
and smiled at me. I couldn't stand it when he did that, and
he knew it.
"Come here you!" I whispered as I pulled his towel off.
He crawled into bed and turned off the light, "Oh cool...
candles!"
"Scented candles." I purred.
He rolled toward me in the soft light of the three candles
sitting on our dresser, "Did you light those for me?"
I smiled. "Well, I didn't light them to read by."
He raised up on one elbow, "Looks sexy." Then back to me,
"If I didn't know you Mrs. Keith Burroughs, I would say
that you were trying to seduce me!"
I scooted closer to his warm body, "I'm cold."
"You're always cold." he said as he stroked my long flowing
hair. "I'm surprised that you didn't put it up?"
"Not right now." I said placing my arms around his neck.
"Help! Help!" he whispered, "I'm being attacked!"
"I'll show you an attack." I smiled suggestively as I
climbed on top of him.
"Did you lock the door?" he asked, smiling.
"Are you going to keep talking or kiss me?" I said placing
my little hands on his rock like chest.
"I'm planning to do much more than that!" he pulled me into
his kiss.
His hands slid down the sexy material of my teddy as our
kissing became more passionate. Even though my eyes closed
I could feel my hair cascading down over our faces as my
kisses became more open and arousing.
His tongue slipped past my lips as we kissed deeply. He
pulled me onto him and positioned each knee at his side as
he slid his hands toward my bottom he paused with his
kissing and smiled, "No underwear?"
I smiled and buried my face into his neck with more kissing
he slowly pushed my top up to my shoulders with his deep
massaging rubs. "Mmmm, that feels good..."
"I bet I have something that feels even better!" he
adjusted his growing erection so it was under me.
I could feel it swelling against my bottom and it was
almost sending me off the deep end of ecstasy. I pushed
myself away from him and arched my back allowing him to
have access to my breasts. He didn't disappoint...
With gentle hands he began to stroke each one with
tenderness and affection, his kisses were warm and inviting
as he placed them on my sensitive nipples. I rolled my eyes
back in exalted pleasure. I leaned into him and allowed my
husbands love muscle to tap the gates of heaven. I wanted
him to penetrate me in the worst way.
He slowly obliged as he began to impale me. I gasped as he
entered me slowly almost driving me mad with passion. He
worked himself back an forth as wave after wave of erotic
pleasure washed over my body. We continued our rhythmic
dance for what seemed like a lifetime and all too soon it
was over.
In an almost simultaneous explosion we shuddered, mine was
all over and within me as if I were being electrocuted with
sexual energy. His was as if all of the energy was focused
in one area and then grounded into me as I felt his seed
began to pulse toward my womb. I collapsed into his great
chest and lay still. He began to slowly rub my bare back as
a mother would her child.
We lay there sleeping, him on the bottom and I straddling
him on top. My head resting on his bronze chest, my golden
hair acting as his blanket. One of his arms was lightly
resting across my back while the other was draped over his
pillow. I don't remember ever sleeping so soundly.
***
Slowly my eyes opened with me still resting against his
chest, my body was now next to his as my arm was gently
resting on his little nipple. I stared at my tiny hand with
the subdued polished fingertips as I listened to his
breathing, to me this was heaven. I could feel one of my
gloriously smooth legs laying over his and smiled as the
hair on his legs tickled mine. I could see sunshine
beginning to filter into our window as birds sang in the
trees just beyond.
I looked upward into his sleeping face and marveled at this
man who was my husband. He was strong and loyal, I knew he
would protect me with his very life. I lay there listening
to the sounds of my neighborhood, dogs barking, a lawnmower
and kids at play. I gave him a squeeze and held it for a
moment. Still resting my head I thought about the last day,
deep down within my being there was a person screaming to
get out but it didn't seem that important anymore. I could
remember that I once was a different person but it seemed
as though that was long ago and under different
circumstances, I was married now and for whatever reason I
accepted it. Sure it was a clouded acceptance but a genuine
one none the less.
I sat up allowing the sheet to slide from my breasts
exposing them to the cool morning air, I smiled as they
expanded a bit due to the chill. I pulled my knees into my
pert chest, I wasn't sure that I would ever be able to go
back to being... I frowned trying to recall that name I
once used. Those creatures had completely erased the name
from my memory, even though I knew it was buried somewhere
deep in my mind.
I looked down at this beauty they made of me, it felt
natural to be me. Even though I tried I couldn't remember
being anything different, but I knew that I had changed. I
looked back at Keith sleeping, he was so wonderful to look
at. I breathed deeply thinking of our love making since...
since the change. Why would I have ever want to push him
away, even though I knew I had tried. My hand gently moved
across his rippled abdomen, smiling I watched his penis
twitch. Laying my head against his stomach I stared at the
organ that caused me so much concern. My hand slowly began
to play in the course hair, as I lay there.
I remember how I used that instrument before... before my
change. I remember one very much like it on that body so
long ago, and yet, not that long ago. But for some reason,
it didn't seem to matter anymore. I felt his hand caress
the back of my head as the warm summer breeze wafted gently
through the window. Turning to face him he smiled and drew
me up into a kiss. Looking deeply into my eyes he smiled in
a sad sort of way and again kissed my forehead.
"I'm sorry for what happened to you Brandi, I'll understand
if you want to leave."
Tears welled into my eyes and fear began to build into my
heart. "Why would I want to leave?"
"Well... you know, the changes that have happened." He
spoke as his hand gently traced a circle on my soft bare
shoulder. "I mean we had sex and... well you used..."
I placed my slender finger against his lips, "Not any
more... they saw to that." I whispered. He squeezed me with
