40: Darling

"If you were a chicken, you would be impeccable..."

A cough dared to erupt from my throat as I heard Raphael say that. I pretended to choke and hit my chest with my fist.  I bit my bottom lip to prevent my lips to spread into a full blown smile. I was enjoying myself too much. Behind Raphael's charming expression was a man who was minutes away from losing his wits. 

Raphael and I made an agreement. It was through words. It wasn't through careful deliberation. I just stared at him and he received my plan in an instant. He wasn't very thrilled as expected. He glanced at me and then at the Phoenix before swinging his head left and right in a vigorous manner as if he was begging me.

He was our only chance and I cannot waste that opportunity.  After short moments of convincing the Phoenix that Raphael was a suitor; she was more delighted and Raphael was more than terrified. I can see the twitch of his legs and the drumming of his fingers on his leg as if the Phoenix was the most repulsive bird he had ever seen. I guess he wasn't into his kind after all. 

I created two chairs by intertwining numerous vines and added some red roses. I moved a cylindrical rock between them and had it wrapped with colorful flowers that ranged from red, white and pink all connected with the same flexible stem. I do not have an idea on why I have done this but the women in my head told me so. They stated that it made things more romantic.

 The Phoenix and Raphael sat in front of each other. The female avifauna definitely was much taller than Raphael by a few inches. She giggled and attempted to lightly slap Raphael with her blazing wing. Fortunately, the angel dodged and laughed nervously.

"Oh you! You can peck me all you want hihi!" she flirted. "I don't bite...but I can definitely  burn anyone into ashes." Well that didn't lighten the mood of her escort.

Raphael faked his laugh and he gave me a quick glance before returning his attention to the bird. I was hiding at the level that was slightly lower from the crest. I didn't want to intrude in Raphael's courting skills.

My back was facing the vast expanse of water that kept waving back and forth as if they were getting pulled by some force. There were scattered rock formations along the clear blue green waters. The stretch marks that were formed in every motion changed as they were lit by the afternoon sun. Creatures of the water in all their exaggerated unique forms were vividly seen.

I glanced at the armored humanoid fishes that swam underneath with their spears. A threeheaded serpent rose not far from here and seemed to be battling with a sea dragon which had sparkling blue and purple scales. I couldn't see much of their intricate figures but they seemed lethal.

Would they want to join us for dinner?

I listened to every sweet words that Raphael spouted and watched how the Phoenix would be so flattered. I never thought that developing the romance would be this time consuming. I rested my arm on the dusty rocks and settled my chin on top. My hand swung lazily behind me and it ended up on top of my tooshie.

This was a perfect time to find more about my sexuality.

I pushed my body off of the bumpy partition and I let my hands slide from my chest down to my limp ling. Why did it look so deflated when not sexually enticed? I grasped the hanging pink ling and studied its design. I pressed my finger against my hole and slid it inside. It was much harder to penetrate when there was no lubrication. I can feel a sting.

"But I must ask; what brought you here? Don't tell me you came all the way up here just to pursue me?"

Raphael cleared his throat and rolled his shoulders to lessen his anxiety. He looked at me for help and I swayed my head 'no' since it wasn't the right time yet.
