My Snake Karl
Every day it's the same thing. Go to work, come home, take care of garden, relax with snake, go to bed and hope for pleasant dreams. But what if, those dreams are not just dreams?
Finally, home from work. I leaned against the door, taking a moment before kicking off my heels. I was really too tall for these things, but to wear anything else would be ‘unprofessional’.
With a shimmy and a wiggle, I worked the panty hose down my legs as I walked across the living room. My guts were notifying me of their emptiness, but dinner could wait until I’d calmed enough to digest it.
Tossing the nylon in the general direction of my bedroom, I slipped into my garden in the sky. It was my pride and joy. An entire wall made of nothing but glass, giving a gorgeous view of the city, with the other walls lined in plants and pictures. The plants themselves hung from the ceiling, sat on tables, and rested in great big pots upon the floor.
The centerpiece of the room was a chaise lounge and a great big terrarium containing my handsome boy. Karl was a carpet python. A big, striking, black and white coil of sweetness.
Simply being in the room started to calm me down. Humming softly, I glided around the lounge to check on Karl. I paused to gaze at him. It didn’t take long for him to lift his head and gaze back.
With a soft doting smile I unlatched and opened up his lid, before extending an arm for him to slither up. My hand came to rest upon the edge of his enclosure as his weight settled upon it. I could feel his muscles contracting as he climbed up my arm. It was always such a surreal feeling.
Reaching my neck, he looped around behind it, his soft warm scales teasing at a few tendrils of escaped hair. Almost angrily, I reached up and yanked the pins out, allowing my hair to cascade out of its professional bun, and down around my shoulders and Karl.
A brief flick of his tongue against my chin, and then he climbed down in a spiral around my body. He was over five feet long. A year ago, he’d measured at five feet three inches.
For a moment I idly wondered about measuring him and seeing if he might be nearing my own height. The thought dropped from my mind as his chin found the sunwarmed floorboards, and my attention turned to tidying up his mini-habitat.
Substrate cleaned, water refreshed, and plants tended, I turned my attention to the rest of the room. Dancing slightly to my own humming as I moved, I trimmed where needed, misted where necessary, and added water to dishes going dry. As I busied myself, the aches and pain and tensions of my life away from this little slice of heaven slowly melted away.
Finished, I put away my tools and looked around with both pride and reluctance. I didn’t want to leave this room. My eyes landed upon the lounge, and with a back popping stretch I decided to lay down and rest a little longer before making my own meal.
Letting my eyes drift closed, I let the humid warmth envelope me in a warm hug. With a contented sigh, I shifted into a more comfortable position and lost myself into the scent of the room. Growing green things and fertile soil, with floral notes and the rich scent of snake weaving its way through.
Before I could drift off however, my phone rang. With a frown, I pulled it out of an inner pocket. Unknown number. Shrugging, I silenced the call and put the phone down on my belly as my eyes slipped shut again.
A small smile played on my lips as Karl’s scaled head brushed against the arch of my foot, before settling on top of my leg as he glided up to join me.
His head had barely reached my knee when the insistent jingle of incoming texts blared out.
Instantly glaring, my eyes snapped open, and with a grumble and a sigh I looked at the screen to see texts from the same unknown number.
Unknown: Hey mel its me
My eyes narrowed further. No elaboration on who “me” was, but it wasn’t needed. Only one asshole would call me Mel even in texts.
Wondering who had lent him their phone, my eyes flicked down to the next one. Not that it mattered, they too would be blocked soon.
Unknown: Im comming to get spike for a gig tonight
Gritting my teeth in anger, my hard found serenity fled. The nerve of him deciding to just show up, and he couldn’t even have the decency to get my snake’s name right.
Against my better judgement, I furiously tapped a reply.
Me: You are banned from my building and have no claim on Karl.
It took seconds for his response to show up.
Unknown: I bought it
My fingers flew even faster over the phone’s tiny keyboard.
Me: You never took care of him, and in the seven months since we split you have never once asked after him.
Me: If you somehow make it past security then I’ll be calling the police on you and you’ll be seeing me in court.
Hopefully the fear of seeing a high paid lawyer in court would be enough to deter him. If not… Well, I’ve never been in the habit of making idle threats.
It took another few minutes, but just as I was calming down enough to block him one last message popped up.
Unknown: Comon mel ill bring it right back
Snorting and rolling my eyes, I finally blocked the number and dropped the phone to the floor.
Karl bumped his nose comfortingly against my chin. Sighing, I rubbed the back of his head as my eyes drifted closed once more. “Don’t worry, I know how much you hate his gigs. You’d always come back stinking of stress from those things.”
I groused and grumbled to my serpentine buddy for a while, before letting slip a wistful, “It’d be nice if we could just disappear into a tropical paradise. Just you and me. No judgemental parents, dumbass ex’s, or stressful jobs.”
The soft flicker of his tongue against my cheek was my only answer. Still, it brought me comfort.
My stomach chose that moment to grumble insistently. Sighing, I tried to shift Karl to the side as I mumbled, “I need to go eat.”
He, however, stubbornly clung to me. Having no limbs and not being wrapped around me you might not think he could, but if so you’d be very much surprised.
I’d gotten used to his clingy ways, and so rolled out from under him as I firmly pushed him into my vacated spot. “I wish I could eat as infrequently as you, but I can’t. So enjoy my warm spot until I get back.”
I took one last look back at him, curled up in the remnants of my warmth with his head raised to watch me go. Smiling bravely, I closed the door and sought out my meal. I’d be back soon, it would not take me long to eat.
~~~~~
The soft susurrus of scales against sand invaded my consciousness. It must be that dream again. It’d been nearly a year since I started having these dreams, and always when I was my most stressed.
A small smile drew itself upon my lips as I awaited his touch. The dreams used to freak me out, but more and more I’d come to long for them.
I shifted onto my back as his smooth scaled hand found its way under my blanket. From the feel of it, my bed did not come with me this time. The first dream had been in my own bedroom, so this wasn’t entirely unexpected.
His hand glided down my body, shoving the blanket out of the way as it went. Letting out a slight shiver of pleasure I breathed out, “Karl?”
Nuzzling his nose beneath my ear, his tongue flicked gently against my neck as he whispered out a question, “Yes, Melissa?”
Opening my eyes, I gazed into his nearly human face with its very familiar patterns. With a serene smile, I cupped his cheek and confessed, “These are my favorite dreams.”
Pressing into my touch Karl shyly admitted, “Mine too.”
Our lips met, his soft and scaled, mine warm and plump. Soon, our tongues danced together, and his hands slid up my body to caress my neck and jaw.
Pulling the blanket the rest of the way out of the way, I went to hook a leg over his hips.
Only, we simultaneously broke the kiss to exchange a startled look and looked down to where my own striped tail was draped over his back. The difference in my stripes was not as stark as his, although it was too dark to see any actual colors, and the patterns were completely different.
Before I could try and figure them out, Karl turned eagerly back to me and rained kisses up and down my neck as he promised, “Soon, this will be permanent, and then, I can show you my garden.”
Moaning softly, I ran my hands up and down his back, not questioning it as our tails twined and rubbed together.
“You’re already so sexy,” he whispered, his fingers tickling sensually down my ribs. “Just think, how much sexier you’ll be in the sunlight, surrounded by flowers.” Shivering delightedly, I arched my back, making it easier for his hands to drag up my back and rub my shoulders and neck.
“Sounds heavenly,” I bashfully admitted before our lips met once again.
After that, words were not needed as the sensation of his scales against my skin made my blood pleasantly sing.
Feeling his penises press and grind into my belly, I let out a soft anticipatory squeak.
Karl pulled back with a teasing look on his face, causing me to blush brightly. His hands caressed the sides of my pert chest. I caught my lower lip between my teeth, wondering if he was going to coax me into begging.
He had mercy on me this time however and shifted down, his tongue flicking gently over my nipples. A soft hum formed in my throat as my eyes drifted shut. My hands roamed over his head and back, taking in the smooth little scales as he gently nipped and licked over my sensitive chest.
A small gasp of surprise came out of my mouth when he did something he’d never done before. The claspers on Karl’s hips gripped tightly to my hips, and his hemipenes wiggled and thrust erotically against my own scales.
“Oh, Oh,” I moaned out, twining my tail more tightly against his, “That feels weird, and good. So good.”
“Yes,” he simply agreed as he pressed his face into my neck. His arms, wrapped firmly about me, holding me in a secure loving hug.
I panted and softly moaned. My front felt like it was afire with pleasure, and I could do no more than cling to him.
Slowly, I felt one of his shafts ease into me, working its way deeper than it ever had before. As we locked securely together he let out a soft sigh of contentment and whispered, “Perfect.”
That one word, seemed to be the last spark that my enflamed libido needed, with a soft keening moan I came apart within Karl’s embrace.
“That’s it,” he whispered huskily, as his arms and tail moved slowly upon me.
I could do no more than tremble within his grasp as he slowly drew out and pushed back in, all the while whispering soft words of affection and encouragements.
I came several more times, as he further swelled, limiting his motions as he tickled over something new and sensitive deep inside.
“I love you,” I whimpered out while calming down from one such climax.
Gasping, he stopped mid pull, and pushed back in, as he took his turn cumming right into my depths.
As that side shrunk and slid out, Karl managed to sound shy as he huskily whispered, “I love you, so much.”
We were silent and still for a few moments after that. Then his hips started rocking against me once more. His tongue flicked teasingly against my neck again and again, and he raggedly asked, “May I push in again? Or are you too tired?”
I was, quite near exhausted, but I didn’t want to stop. “Please, again,” I breathlessly begged.
He reached up, and tilted my head down so that we could kiss as he slowly pushed in. The taste of his lips was stronger than earlier, and much more pleasant than I was used to it being. I whimpered into his mouth, before breaking away so I could lick and kiss along his cheek and ear. His spicy musky scent and taste were quite frankly addictive. The slow loving way he drove in and out of me, and his soft reassuring murmur, allowed me to relax and let him take over.
Closing my eyes, I rested my chin on the top of his head, as he nuzzled tenderly into my neck. I felt like, even if I fell asleep on him, he would keep me safe.
A faint hint of bitterness rose up in my heart, why could I not find a man like him in the waking world, one who wanted to take care of me, nurture me, and work with me.
As if able to sense that my thoughts were not wholly upon him, Karl’s hips twisted, rubbing more firmly into that spot, causing me to cry out and melt into a quivering mess.
Before I could fully come down, he pulled my head into a kiss, as he squeezed and wiggled, gently against me.
He spent the rest of the night, not allowing me to think of anything except the pleasure he was delivering in our slow sensual dance.
When he finally exploded within me once more, he wiggled up the few inches needed for us to be nose to nose. As I drifted away from dream Karl, he petted my cheek and whispered, “Soon my love, we’ll be together forever.”
With a sad smile, I wished this were not a dream, but I knew. I’d wake up fully clothed in my own bed like always.
