*BERYL AND THE POLYMORPH*
by virgosun (c) April 2004
*******************************
(Part 7)
They dated, and frequented the dances. Sometimes Pro
borrowed the car; sometimes Doug borrowed a different
car; sometimes Dot or even Dad gave her and Pro a lift
to where they were going. On one occasion she doubled
behind Doug on the motorbike, clutching her hat and
laughing all the way. With Pro she went to the movies,
and laughed and rolled sweets along the aisles as much
as they canoodled; if the show was good they were happy
to curl in each others' arms and watch the story unfold.
Most nights ended snuggled together behind the
mickleberry, nuzzling and kissing until Mum popped out
of the front door bang on eleven, regular as clockwork,
calling her name.
Pro arrived on her doorstep one fine weekend astride a
bicycle that Basil used to ride around the worksite.
Beryl packed the Crabtree delivery bike with picnic
goodies and they had ridden to the public reserve on the
riverside, a shallow reach where it was safe for
children to play in knee-deep water. They took a dirt
track inaccessible to cars further along the river, past
glittering rapids, and beneath long trailing curtains of
willow boughs. At last, hot from their ride, they found
a secluded place to picnic, cooling off with a splash in
the river. Pro dispensed with his clothing altogether,
and Beryl slipped off her shorts to reveal boy-leg
bathers that may not have revealed much skin, but
emphasised her womanly curves. Pro couldn't keep the
grin of approval off his face, and his eyes kept
creeping out on stalks as if to speak for a much more
mysterious part of his anatomy.
"Pro, cut it out!" she giggled, "that looks ridiculous!"
Laughing, he splashed her with cool riverwater and she
squealed, nipples rising up at the chill.
They snacked from the picnic hamper, all the while
devouring each other with their eyes. She had revelled
in the power the sight of her body had given her over
George...but they had both been innocent then. That
power had turned against her when George kept trying to
touch...
"Hey." The feather-touch of gentle tendrils on her cheek
brought her back. George was long gone, and the soft
fingers that tilted up her chin were not blunt and
rough. "Beryl? Are you okay?"
She smiled, caressing that familiar, textured face. "I
love you, Pro," she smiled, drawing him into a lingering
kiss. When they parted, she saw his eyes move toward the
down-view of her rounded bosom. He was still innocent.
He rolled onto his back with a sigh and shut his eyes,
his limbs losing definition as he stretched.
"You look mighty fine, Beryl, and I look so-so. Let me
try something. Maybe I can get more than just the ears
right." Several pores as well as his nostrils flared as
he drew a deep breath. Sitting beside him, Beryl watched
as subtle changes rippled beneath his skin. His arms and
legs resumed proper human form, becoming even more
refined and chiselled. The biceps muscles and forearms
became much more heavily fleshed and their shapes
defined, even to the cords of veins appearing. His chest
became deeper, shoulders wider, with deep pectoral
muscles and a rippling stomach. From a lean and average-
shaped base, Pro transformed into a muscular athlete.
"Pro, you don't have to do that for me." She rested a
hand upon that sculpted chest, over his heart. He still
_felt_ like Pro, warm and resilient. "I love you the way
you are, the way you're comfortable."
"Yeah?" he grinned, eyes popping open. He released a
breath, and some of the tension left his perfect shape.
"Good, it takes a heckuva lot of concentration to do
that for too long! I thought that was the kind of shape
every woman desires in a man. If you could change your
shape, what would you do?"
She thought a moment. "I'd probably...longer legs and a
smaller beam," she concluded, and he laughed.
"Don't you dare! There's nothing wrong with your legs or
your beam."
"I like you better the way you are. Big muscles aren't
everything." Beryl raised an eyebrow archly, gazing at
his pelvis. "Besides which, you've left something off."
"Oh...heh heh, _that_!" For all his masculine shape, his
groin was still store-dummy smooth. He blushed deep
scarlet. "I've, er, had better practice at ears than,
er, one of those," he admitted.
"You mean you don't know what one looks like?" Beryl's
eyes were like saucers; Pro scowled and flushed even
more and sat up, bending his knees as if to protect his
lap from scrutiny.
"Of course I know! I just...never needed to practice
before, I...I'd have to copy Reg or Dad or someone to
get it realistic."
"But don't you have to, well, go to the loo?"
"Yeah but I just make a hosepipe to do that, I wouldn't
want to...make a fool of myself." He stood up and walked
away, retrieving his shorts. "I gotta look right," he
mumbled as he dressed. "You'd laugh at me."
Standing too, Beryl sobered. "I'm sorry," she soothed,
slipping her arms around his waist from behind and
squeezing him. She kissed his shoulder and felt him
relax, and he melded his arms over hers. "I wouldn't
laugh at you, Pro. Don't you...you know, do what young
men do?" She was desperately embarrassed even as she
asked, and was glad he couldn't see her face although he
could probably feel the heat of it.
"What? Oh, you mean, er, play with it, well, yeah," he
said slowly. "Some parts of my skin are more sensitive
than others, like, _really_ sensitive."
"What were you going to do when you got married, then?"
Beryl asked gently. "How were you going to be ready for
your wedding night?"
"I...honestly hadn't thought that far ahead," he
confessed. "Nobody was ever going to want me that much.
But..."
"But?"
He swivelled quickly, releasing her arms and smiling
down. "There's something else I wanted to practise," he
murmured, changing the subject, cupping her face in his
hands. Heartened by his change in mood, she sought his
lips, running her hands along his back.
Pro answered in kind, their bodies curving together, his
tongue forgiving any hurt she may have spurred. He
brought one hand to the nape of her neck, to the soft
skin beneath the tumble of her hair. She could feel his
palm ripple and shift, changing shape - and then it
seemed another pair of soft lips nibbled there, as
though he stood behind as well as before her, tickling
in the fine hairs right up at the top of her spine.
Beryl shivered. It felt so good she sighed into his
mouth, letting herself rest against him. He allowed her
no respite, kissing her strongly and passionately,
kissing her twice for every one of hers. He let his left
hand drop to the small of her back, just above the line
of her costume. A wave of goosebumps rippled across her
skin as a third pair of tiny lips played upon her spine,
while his fingers made little spirals all around.
"Ohhh, Pro," she whispered.
"You like?" Although his lifted his mouth to speak, his
palm-kisses continued, lips caressing shoulder and back.
Beryl allowed her body to answer, rocking her pelvis up
and against him. A gorgeous heat was building that
echoed the fire in her heart, tingling deep between her
thighs, and she wanted to wrap her legs around him as he
teased her skin. His warm flesh slipped around her,
clasping her in an embrace that pulsed gently. She
wanted to run her hands up and down his body, to stroke
his every square inch, and find those darkest places
where his hot blood was closest to the surface. Wherever
their bodies touched, he sprouted little fingerlets that
nuzzled and swirled.
Beryl drew a deep, shuddering breath. "I want to please
you," Pro breathed before she claimed his mouth again.
His many kisses, the feel of his body, the nimble play
of his liquid tongue - the bombardment of sensation was
almost too much for her. The pulsation in his body was
strengthening and picking up speed, but not as quickly
as the sharp pinging in her groin. Sheer delight
clenched her whole body, and she thrust herself against
him hard, shivering and gasping as the climax passed
through her.
"Oh my goodness!" she whispered, relaxing. Pro lowered
her gently to the ground, melting and flowing around
her, his own body still pulsing. For a moment he hugged
himself to her, covering her body entirely with the
warmth of his. Then he pulled gently away, tenderness in
his eyes. Shrinking into a ball as he flowed out of his
shorts, he then scooted backward into the chill of the
river, emitting a discordant whistle when he hit the
water.
Beryl sat up, staring at her still-tingling body,
seeming innocent still fully-clad in her bathing suit.
Beyond the blanket's edge, Pro was in the river,
resuming his human shape as he reared from the shallows
cussing about the cold. He gave her a rueful grin. "I
think we'd better save that one for very special
occasions. I thought I was gonna split my skin!"
She wanted his touch again, and extended a leg toward
him. Pro smiled and knelt, gathering her ankle in his
hands, and lightly kissing the top of her foot. She
shivered again from head to toe, anticipating a strong,
slender tentacle that would curl around her leg, lips
forming at its tip to kiss her thigh. His hands melded
into a firm ring that rolled up her calf, his lips
following to just above her knee, a sensation wondrously
like slipping into silk stockings. "You make me feel as
dirty as Jean Winslow looks," she murmured, lips swollen
and sultry.
"But I have to keep you clean." He hugged her leg with
his whole body, then melted away. Slithering to her
side, he gathered her in his arms. "I love you, Beryl
Crabtree, and I only hope you want me as much as I want
you."
She had trouble keeping her voice steady. "I do want
you, Pro, oh so much, believe me! No other man in the
world could make me feel so delightful, so wicked, so
sexy! But there's more to it than that." She trailed her
fingertips along his face. "What's better still is that
I love you too. I just wish I could kiss you three times
over, so that you could know how wonderful it feels.
You're one of a kind, Pro, and that's kind of sad. What
is it they call you, a polymorph? I'd be no contest for
a girl polymorph."
"Rubbish!" he breathed, kissing her nose. "Nobody else
could come close to you." He drew away so that he could
study her face, eyes sober. "Do you ever think of the
future, Beryl? Where your life might take you in five,
ten, even twenty years?"
Her gaze faltered, for she still didn't care to think of
George, and he had figured strongly in those future
plans. She was sure Mum had the seating layout planned
for the guests at the wedding reception. "Marrying
George, at least until recently," she admitted. "Helping
out with the shop, having a family, but none of that
applies anymore. I'd still like that to be in my future,
but it won't be with George, no way."
He nodded. "Don't give up on the future yet. It's hardly
begun. Together, we could make it a much better place."
***
Looking back, it was hard to say when she had become
part of the Clan.
Beryl returned to delivering the lunches via bicycle,
and she often lingered after the meals were given out -
not to make nookie with Pro, though. She helped Granny
and Barbara sort out a routine for getting work clothing
washed and mended. With new homes springing up
everywhere, there was far too much work on hand for
everyone. Gardens remained thistle-choked weed and hard
earth, with very few of the Enabled folk managing to
prepare much in the way of gardens. Beryl had to stop
pinching carnation buds for her feller on Enabled
ground, there simply weren't enough to go around.
There were times when some of the women were run off
their feet, while others sat idle waiting for other jobs
to be completed. Floor coverings couldn't be laid until
the skirting boards had been painted. There was no real
point to cultivating a lawn before driveways were
cemented. If the washing hadn't been collected, no
ironing could be done. Without fabric, wool or thread,
mending simply didn't happen. The lady who made curtains
could not work if there was no childcare for her baby.
Perhaps that was when Beryl truly entered the family;
when she started examining what each family member did
well and enjoyed, then organised them for maximal
efficiency. Granny didn't have to darn all the socks by
herself any more. Nor did Beryl confine herself to
women's matters; a system she developed meant Doug no
longer lost his tools to absent-minded workmates, which
was tantamount to a lover's gift.
But maybe her inclusion had begun much earlier than
that, from her first journey up the tower, or even on
the day she had accepted a ride into town with a
bizarre-looking stranger. Now, as the tower soared
above, the Enabled celebrated her seventeenth birthday
with as much gusto as they would celebrate for one of
their own. This night, Pro was happy to appear in his
bathrobe, and to slither and loop about in a variety of
weird shapes; always to return to Beryl's side. He could
still surprise and startle her with the things he did,
and the truth of it was he still startled himself from
time to time.
They danced and sang, Pro setting his maximum three
orifices to whistling in harmony. The atmosphere was
carnival in the wake of the family luncheon Mum had set
out, attended by Dad, Dot and Ted and their little son,
her rowdy younger brothers, and of course her boyfriend.
Mum eyed Pro with the same slit-eyed suspicion with
which she peered into the 11pm darkness from the
doorstep. Dad, on the other hand, welcomed him
cordially, and by the end of the day had mooched himself
a guided tour of the tower workings. Smiling blandly,
Pro had sat opposite Beryl at the dinner table...and
made mischief.
As Dad passed the gravy boat along the table, Beryl felt
a soft, warm fingertip brush her shin, then another. At
first she thought it might have been a brother under the
table, but Mum was berating the boys into eating their
greens as they sat and wriggled. Pro glanced at her and
smiled, both his hands in full view as he sliced roast
beef. Yet, the caress came again, fingertips slipping
along her calf, just up to her knee, then back down to
the sensitive skin inside her ankle. She was having
trouble concentrating on her own lunch. Then, soft lips
nipped and nibbled along the arch of her foot. She
pulled her feet back primly under her chair, so the
teasing little mouth found its way to her knee instead.
"Oh, darn!" she said as she flicked a broad-bean off her
plate, then backed her chair out and peered under the
table. Sure enough, Pro's right shoe and sock sat empty,
his extruded leg weaving like a cobra from the cuff of
his trousers. She retrieved the bean and sat up again,
letting her legs stretch out enough to return the
footsie favour. Pro grinned as he piled mash on his fork
and explained shortwave radio to Dad.
One of her brothers, who had been disturbingly quiet,
gave a giggle. She clearly heard him whisper, "It's like
a worm!" The game had gone on long enough; so she chose
her moment and stomped on Pro.
"Oohw!"
"All right there, lad?" Dad asked jovially.
"Fine, fine, I just parked the chairleg on my foot,
that's all...Clumsy of me."
Dad had later delivered Beryl to the Clan party, and Pro
(in proper homoform) had shown him around the workings.
Beryl danced with everyone, including just one dance
with Doug, who was being monopolised by Tempest and
didn't seem to mind. Tempest had allowed him to teach
her some formalised steps amidst all her whirling, and
together they moved unexpectedly well.
Unbeknownst to Beryl, Dad had also delivered a cake.
After she blew out her candles and Pyrus snuffed the
sparklers in his own inimicable style, she was delighted
and flattered by a mass of little gifts as the Clan
celebrated their Lunch Lady.
Smiling sadly, Pro picked up a satin bow and ribbon and
put them over his head. "Unfortunately, the only gift I
have for Beryl is me," he sighed, to a chorus of "Aww"
from the spectators. He raised his hand dramatically,
index finger extended, then let that digit lengthen
further so it became a fine tendril that weaved and
coiled. Then he fashioned it into a small, slender loop,
a circle. "All I could ask," he continued, "is that she
wear my ring."
"Proteus, don't be so _rude_!" Tempest snapped amidst
chuckles and titters.
"Oh, but I'm serious - you are the crude one, sister
dear!" He spun with a flourish before Beryl, sinking to
one knee, still holding up his knotted finger. "Beryl,
my love, if I were to ask you to marry me, seriously,
would you? I mean it, now."
She looked around for some clue. He seemed to be playing
up, flirting, making mischief, and yet...The Clansfolk
smiled, curiosity on their faces, as bemused as her.
Come to think of it, Pro and Dad had chatted alone
earlier in the day.
Beryl eyed his looped finger, then laughed and slipped
her ringfinger through, humouring him. "Of course, Pro,"
she said softly. She meant to sound lighthearted, but
the honesty of her feelings made her voice husky.
"I mean it," he repeated, eyes luminous. His arm pulsed,
and his hand engulfed hers. Within that warmth, she felt
something small, round and hard. "You see, it would fill
me with joy if we could, on this very day next year, be
celebrating our wedding as well as your eighteenth
birthday. I love you, and would be deeply honoured if
you would be my wife." The Clan drew a collective
breath, as he rolled his hand away to expose the dainty
golden ring.
There was no doubt in Beryl's mind. No man in the world
would be able to please her in quite the way Pro
Phillips could. "Oh, yes, Pro! I love you!"
The party kicked off again with a new burst of
exhilaration, and Pro and Beryl danced the night away.
Later, as eleven pm passed unremarked, they took a
stroll along the newest of the graded streets, pausing
outside a barely-completed house. The full moon gleamed
upon stacked rooftiles, a promise of security to come.
One small flowerbed had been turned, and planted out
with carnation seeds.
For a while, the couple were content to stand nestled
together. To have a place to call home beyond her
parents' walls had been almost undreamable; a room above
the pub had seemed her only likely destination. She
kissed Pro gently, once, twice...longer, and longer,
their limbs entwining in passion.
"I can only match you two-for-one tonight," Pro murmured
as their lips parted. "Since you gave me a fat lip at
lunch today."
"Well, you deserved it, you naughty man!" They giggled
together, then cuddled quietly, leaning together, taking
in the cloudstreaked sky. That was when they both heard,
clearly, a faint gasp from amidst the stacked planks
close to the Wall.
Pro raised a finger to his lips. "What was that?" Beryl
breathed close by his ear. Attention focused outward
rather than upon each other, they waited, listening. And
heard a soft, high moan clearly over a puff of shifting
breeze.
Pro grabbed her hand and slithered down into a silent
slug-roll, towing the tiptoeing Beryl behind him.
"Someone's getting theirs!" he whispered.
"No! We should leave them alone!"
"No way! I want to know who's doing it in my backyard!"
"Pro!"
They trod noiselessly between stacked building
materials; long blocks of timber and piles of brick.
Beryl went after him more in the hope of restraining
Pro's curiosity than in any spirit of exploration; how
would he have felt if it were them being sneaked up
upon? Whoever they were, they were intent on only one
thing, for she was making little whimpers as she gasped
rhythmically, and deeper, ragged male breaths were
mingling with her song. Pro edged around the end of a
half-used stack of roofing beams, and his curiosity was
rewarded.
By moonlight, a pale arc of flung-up skirts and
petticoats made a fan on the dark ground. In their midst
lay the long shape of a man, dark except for where his
pale, skinny exposed buttocks jerked and thrust for all
they were worth within the embrace of womanly legs. The
polish on his shoes glistened as his feet scuffed the
tarpaulin on which they lay.
"Oh Douggie, Douggie!" Tempest gasped.
Before Beryl could react, Pro wrapped swiftly around her
like a wide elastic band. His body arced and streamed
upward, to the top of the woodpile, then bounded again,
soaring up onto the top of the tower wall, taking her
with him as he stretched and shrank like taffy. She was
too astonished to cry out. Suddenly they were both
sitting on a walkway just the other side of the top of
the wall, where Pro threw back his head and bubbled with
bawdy merriment.
"And I was worried about hurting his feelings!" Beryl
cackled, unable to resist the joke. Pro was almost
helpless with laughter and they collapsed in each
others' embrace, giggling and gasping as they tried with
little success to keep quiet. "How long do you think
that's been going on? What I mean is, how often have
they, he hee?"
"Oh ho ho that's rich!" Pro gasped.
"I thought he was a gentleman!"
"He is, he is, I reckon it's Tempest finally got her
wicked way...woo hoo there's proof!" A sudden, hot gust
whirled leaves and dust up from the workings and struck
them with stinging force, and a sigh rose from every
tree as still leaves suddenly rustled. Pro wrapped his
body firmly over Beryl to shield her from the brief
onslaught. Metal creaked and shutters slapped, and dogs
barked as the out-of-place gust billowed across the
town.
Their laughter subsiding, Beryl enjoyed the all-body
sensation of Pro enfolding her. Cuddling, they rocked
together gently. She could feel his heartbeat, and the
steady pulsation of his breathing. As the night grew
still again they heard no sound from below.
"He's gonna want to make sure he does that indoors, away
from the weather," Pro murmured by her ear. His body was
pulsing strongly, as though he was still breathless.
Beryl drew away enough to gaze into his eyes and caress
his face, as his skin crept against where her arms were
bare, forming many tiny fingerlets. "My love," he
breathed, "your body against mine feels so good."
They were sitting on a narrow platform high in the air,
with only a thin cord safety rail for protection. In
spite of that, Beryl was not alarmed. Although she
wanted to stay right where she was, common sense
suggested they should move. "Maybe we should get down
from here." Instead of moving, she kissed him, long and
lingering.
"Why? I'll keep you safe. Are you afraid we might fall -
from grace, I mean?" The lower half of him was spread
out as a secure base, locking them both in place, and
his arms were strong and solid around her. She was
kneeling, legs slightly parted and, she realised, tensed
about him as if to hold on. The warm, resilient pillow
she sat against was pulsing lightly, which felt
delicious against her inner thighs.
Tingles were rising up her legs to the hearth of her
virginity. "I don't feel very graceful at the moment,"
she said, a shiver in her voice. In their flight, her
skirt had risen up and was bunched at an unladylike
level in front of her hips. Pro's skin was in intimate
contact with stockings, britches, and the soft skin of
her uppermost thighs.
His lips travelled along her neck. "You're not in envy
of Tempest, then?"
The urge to rock her pelvis was irresistible. "Oh,
heavens no!"
Pro emitted a deep sigh, his body answering her motion
by creeping up snugly to fit along the space between her
thighs. His lap was now a long, throbbing mound of flesh
that made her want to arch her back and drive herself
against him.
A tiny set of lips opened and puckered against her
inmost thigh just above her stockings, the kiss sending
a jolt of pleasure to her crotch. "Pro!" she cried, but
instead of pulling away she wriggled herself harder
against him. He gave a bubble of low laughter from her
shoulder.
"Seeing them like that kind of...turned me on!"
For answer Beryl tightened her arms, feeling his body
pulsating strongly beneath and around hers. The heat
between them made her clothes feel less substantial than
gossamer. His rhythmic throb clenched lightly at her
breasts, making them tingle, which was nothing to the
fire in her groin. She recaptured his mouth as his lap
trickled extra kisses from thigh to thigh, working
toward the damp gusset of her knickers. "Where's that
sensitive spot of yours?" she hissed, wanting to give
him what she was getting.
"All over!" he groaned. She ran her tongue from his
earlobe to his throat, and twisted her pelvis. That
second little mouth had centred in a peak of flesh
beneath her undies, and if she jiggled just a bit the
cloth would hitch aside and - yes! Hot lips below
pressed softly through the moist nest of her bush, and a
small, wet tentacle flicked gently into her juices.
Beryl's whole body jolted with orgasm, back arching,
throat clenching on a cry of mindless delight. Pro's
arms clamped and flexed about her, holding her safe. Her
underwear had snapped back into place, and she crushed
his face between her breasts. He shivered from end to
end, then threw his upper half backward as well, a
smooth arc of thrumming flesh. As she came down from her
climax, she watched him convulse, a massive ripple
rushing from where he still nested between her thighs.
It made a large bubble that briefly distorted his
shoulder, before a ribbon of silvery fluid burst into
the night.
With that moment, all his strength deserted him. He
flopped back to the decking losing shape as well, a
quivering mass. Beryl leaned over him and put her arms
around him, still clasping him firmly with her legs lest
he roll off the platform. She pressed her lips to the
flutter where his heart would be, while he panted and
started to laugh, euphoric.
"My God, Bezz...what a night our wedding night's going
to be!" He brought a hand up to tangle tenderly in her
hair while his eyes found their way back to their proper
place. She gazed in awe at the wet pattern that slicked
his arm, letting her fingertips glide through that
mysterious substance, the deepest secret of a man.
Within it was written everything that made Pro the
extraordinary being he was. And it could have been
inside her.
"I'm sorry," he mumbled, taking her solemnity for
disgust. "I had to get rid of it somewhere, anywhere but
_there_, like, not down where it wanted to come out,
oh..."
Her smile was luminous. "One day, soon, it will be, Pro.
I want you. I love you!"
They lay entwined side-by-side as they rested. "I didn't
think you'd like...being touched down there, after..."
Pro murmured awkwardly.
"Maybe gentle kisses are another matter," she whispered,
caressing his chest.
"I'd never thought to taste anything so delicious," he
sighed in awe. "I would never have done that unless you
wanted me to."
"Thank heavens for loose elastic." She gave a gentle,
wry laugh. "Never thought I'd have reason to say that!
Do you mean to say, your little mouths can taste too?"
He shrugged. "I am the Polymorph, and I can sense with
my whole body. I can taste you any time we touch."
"Sometimes I wonder what I am missing out on, just being
normal." He kissed her forehead as she spoke.
"Don't," he chided. "Be content to know me. Never wish
to be me. I am as I am, and I am tasked to make the best
of it. Your closeness guarantees that'll be a lot easier
from now on."
They hugged a while longer, ever conscious of the
lateness of the hour. Eventually, Pro guided her to the
safety of solid ground, and they made their way out of
the worksite. While Pro cleaned himself off with a rag,
Beryl looked up at the tower, tall and imposing.
"That's the best thing," she said softly. Pro glanced up
from wondering what to do with the cloth, then dropped
it into a garbage drum.
"What?"
She nodded at the tower. "Knowing that...our children
will have somewhere to belong. Somewhere other than the
pub."
"There can be no greater joy for me than knowing you
wish to belong," said Pro with a tremor in his voice, as
he hugged her fiercely. "That is the ultimate
acceptance!"
