I kissed her - it - because I wanted to. Because I was
lonely and horny and had been for six months, and she - it - had breasts and a
cunt and an alien beauty.
Unlike the movies and the cartoons she - it - didn't kiss
back. The fairy went stock still, went even colder than she had originally
been, until her lips were like ice. I pulled back and looked at her and she
wasn't smiling in blissful fulfilment. She was staring with her round eyes with
their gecko-like pupils and she blinked once, slowly.
"What that?" She - it - Marlie - asked.
I shrugged, suddenly bashful. "It's what humans
do," I fumbled, stalling as I tried to think of an appropriate
explanation. Uncomfortably, I blurted out: "Marlie, do you... do you guys
have sex?"
"Sex?" she asked again, and the syllables were
alien on her tongue. Most of my desire had vanished with the apparent lack of
reciprocation from Marlie, but there was a backload of pent-up frustration that
needed to go somewhere, and Marlie was as far away from a prissy human girl one
could get. So I tried.
"You know, do you make new fairies? Have fun
together?"
Marlie tilted her head quizzically. At least this expression
was one familiar to me. With her head still tilted she shook it slightly, then
paused in mid shake.
"You mean," she said, and gabbled out a many
syllabled word I completely didn't understand.
"Sex?" I tried again. "Procreation? Make new
fairies?"
Marlie nodded very unenthusiastically."Make new fairy,"
she said. "But no fun." She looked at me. Her lavender skin was hard
and stretched thin and dry over her alien exoskeleton. At least she looked
humanoid and had absolutely no body hair. I wondered if her reproductive system
worked the same way a human girl's did. Then again it had been so long since I
last touched a human girl, I probably would have to re-learn what to do,
anyway.
The fairy scooted forward, closer to me. I could smell her
saltwater breath, cool like the night breeze over my lips. It seemed like a
precursor to sex, at least; but that was in human terms. Apart from looking
humanoid, Marlie was completely alien. She blinked her limpid gecko eyes again,
the second eyelid scootching lazily over them.
"You teach?" she questioned. "Human?
Sex?" Even more gently than I had, she leaned forward and put her icy lips
against mine.
