Darkest Dreams (closed for Ravenloft)

Charlie blinked at Stu, confused. She was pretty sure they were still in his apartment, but it looked weird and... wasn't he supposed to be downstairs getting ready for the Magic tournament tonight?

Then he called her sleepyhead, and she realized what was going on. She giggled, blushing a little. "I, um, didn't mean to fall asleep. I was just lying on the couch, thinking about what happened, and then... I was here. I didn't realize I was falling asleep until now." She sat up in his bed, laughing as he got momentarily distracted by his loss at Magic.

Once he crawled into bed with her, half of her wanted to stay right where she was, and she did, for a few minutes, just enjoying the closeness and intimacy of it all. But after a little while, she looked up at him and pressed a kiss to his lips. "Can you come wake me up? I want to come downstairs for the tournament," she admitted, grinning. "Maybe I'll get some coffee on the way down so I don't fall asleep again..."
 
"Oh, don't feel bad, I take it as a compliment, I must have really wore you out down there..." he grinned, pleased with himself. "Man, that was awesome! I mean... beautiful, what we shared, I'm glad you let me get you close before we... you know... I never would have lasted long enough to get you there if you hadnt... it just feels sooo good. Even better without a condom. God... you must be so full of my... um..." he blushed, laying next to her. "It's a good thing you're on the pill, I would have knocked you up for sure with that load." He teased, patting her belly affectionately.

"Oh, that reminds me, while I have you alone, in here, how would you like carrying on with our dreams? I mean, I still want to date you in real life, but I was wondering how you felt about feeding me in your dreams still? We can do anything you want, even revisit your hentai fantasy." As he said it, her belly swelled into a small baby bump as he manifested himself as the tentacle creature, where it last was, swimming in her womb. "Or I could be Harley Quinn again." He morphed into her and giggled, calling her puddin. "The deeper, more secret, forbidden the desire, the better it tastes, you know."

He returned to his demonic self again and sighed as she asked him to come wake her up. He wasn't really upset, just was hoping for some alone time with her, but he understood. She didn't want to miss the fun downstairs. "Alright, I'll be up in a minute. You just want to see someone else beat my mill deck, I can tell." He teased, scratching his bald head. "Oh, you won't need coffee, here, let me give you some... Fuel." He whispered, turning to prop himself up on his elbow. Then he hovered his hand over her head and a sort of midnight blue light poured out of his palm and drift like feathers down to absorb in through her skin, filling her with energy. "Turns out, real love making is so potent that I can't contain it all, so I'm giving some of it back."
 
Charlie had to laugh when he asked if she wanted to keep meeting in their dreams. "I can't believe you think you actually have to ask. Of course I do! I--" She stopped, her voice cut off by a squeak of surprise as the tentacle creature came to life in her womb again. She gasped, arousal flooding through her at the feeling of the creature swelling and pleasuring her canal once again. "Oooh my god..." Her eyes fluttered, and once she managed to focus them again, she realized Stu had turned back into Harley again, dressed in that sexy little nurse's outfit again and she moaned. "What are you doing, trying to convince me I want to stay in this dream with you?" she asked, her voice shaking slightly. "C-Cause it's kinda working..."

And then, a moment later, he was filling her body with sexual energy. She felt herself tingling as the energy filled her again, and she arched her back slightly, gasping. When she opened her eyes again, they were wide and dark with lust. She pulled him down for a harsh, passionate kiss, rolling over slightly until she was straddling him and grinning. "Gimme a few minutes before you come upstairs," she ordered, and started grinding shamelessly against his half-hard length, trying to get him hard all over again.
 
"Well I... I mean... I didn't want you to think I was trying to... violate you... now that you know it was me and not just a normal dream." It was sooo hard being good sometimes, he didn't mean to start her engine, but she was clearly turned on by the brief returns of her previous dream lovers. "What!? No! I... we d-don't really have t-time..." Oh boy, he was in for it now, he knew that dark look in her eyes! "It... It is?" He paused, tempted, but no, it would take all his focus to give her a dream worthat having and if he did that, he couldn't pay attention to anything happening down stairs. The guys would probably think he was in a trance or something and take advantage by sneaking a free coke or hostess pie right under husband unaware nose. Or worse, think he was having some sort of medical issue and call an ambulance!

The last thing he needed was for modern medical science to catalog demonic dna. They would probably lock him up for being different, or worse, do fucked up experiments on him to make a race of demon men for war, or something. Oh man, he made a big mistake, keying her up and then fuelling hef engine! He was REALLY in for it now! He knew what a rough kiss like that meant, she was going to ride him hard and fast! The hot lust of taking control of him shot out of her like a bolt, hitting Stu like a ton of bricks.in her dream, he arched his back and moaned in pleasure as she ground his manhood to life with her smooth, wet dream-pussy.

Down stairs, Stu had been leaning on the counter with a far away look in his eyes and his cheek in his hand. When the bolt of lust shot though him, his hand slipped and he almost fell over, catching himself on the counter with reaching hands. "Woah, shit!" He yelped, his legs too week to stand as he sunk to sit on the floor. "You okay back there Stu?" Joe asked, slapping another player on the chest to get his attention. "Have a nice trip?!" He joked. "Hahah! Yeah, I'm fine... it's just... um... a Charlie horse..." he laughed nervously, crawling his way back up to the counter. It was defiantly a Charlie, but it sure wasn't a horse ride. Well... maybe... she was bouncing on him pretty hard now...

"Nothing to see here, move along... move along..." he joked, hunched forward over the counter, his head low and motioning like he was using the jedi mind trick on them all as the stared and joked. Most of them went right back to the game but Joe looked like he was going to continue razing him. But something about the scowl Stu my gave him must have made him think twice.

Once he was sure he was being ignoredcagain, he stood back up, slowly, making sure he used the counter to to brace himself against another fall."okay, Charlie... if that's the way you want to play..." he whispered Darkly to himself, returning his focus to her dream. "Honestly, you don't play fair, Charlie! That bolt of lust just freaking floored me! Good thing I don't play fair either, hmm?" He growled with an evil laugh.

He manifested the tentacle baby back inside of her and had it slither it's reaching pseudopods down through her Vagas a canal and bind her thighs to his so that she was trapped right where she was, straddling him and a mere in he away from having him inside of her. "Hope you're stretchy, cause..." he pointed out another tentacle slipping out of her to touch the head of his cock. "You're gonna have a lot to fill out in a second!" The tentacle encircled his length in a spiral and tugged, jerking her down to take not only him, but the bulging, throbbing tentacles back inside of her. It would have been impossible in reality, but in here, it was nothing but pure leasure, being stretched so wide open.

The crown jewel of this dream seduction was bringing the image of Harley back as well, kneeling up behind her and giggling in her ear as she playfully bounced her breasts in her hands and pinched her nipples. And as if that wasn't enough, Harley moved her hands down to Charlies beautiful, wide hips and began making her bounce up and down on Stu's tentacle encased cock, laughing and gleefully saying "weeeeeeee!"
 
Charlie watched with mouthwatering anticipation as the tentacles started slipping out of her again, first to bind her legs, then to wrap around his cock. She licked her lips, trying to push herself down onto him before he was ready, but the bonds held her in place, and she moaned in anticipation. "Tease!" she accused playfully, but before she could say anything else, he started letting her down over the wrapped length, and she gasped, feeling stretched to the brink.

"Oh my god, yes!" And then Harley was behind her, guiding her hips into a speedy rhythm, or alternatively kneading at her breasts. Charlie began to laugh, though the sound was as much moaning as laughter by the time it actually escaped her lips. She threw her head back, leaning willingly back against Harley's ample chest, giving herself over to the pleasure. "Feels... so... good!" she whimpered, reaching up to grab one of Harley's pigtails. She grinned at the little squeak the blonde made, and turned her head, pulling her in for a delicious, messy kiss.
 
Stu watched as well, sometimes these fantasies he fulfilled really turned him on as well. This one in particular, the way those healthy pink tentacles slithered out of her sex, opening her wide, nourished by her womb... it was almost as if it had taken on a life of its own and was more than just a manifestation of their shared imagination. But he was sure he still controlled it, it did just as he bid it to, after all. It couldn't become it's own, independent being, could it?

Something was wrong... Stu tried to banish the alien creature from the dream, but it didn't work! "Ch-charlie! S-stop! S-somethings wrong! Ungh!" In an instant the alien thing was coiling and stroking him off furiously, inside of Charlies taut canal. "Its... it's r-real! C-can't control it!" God, it was going to make him cum! And then what? What would it do with his demonic seed? "No..." he groaned, his body betraying him, his own creation turning against his will, wanting the power to exist without him. "Shit, shit, shit!"

"Oh no, Stuey, it looks like yer a bit stuck..." Harley chimed in, giggling. What the hell? Her too? How were his creations, his manifestation breaking free of his control and acting against him like this?! "Charlie... nnngya! Please... please tell me you're controlling them... I... I can't stop them... are you.. somehow?" He hoped it was just the power he had filled her with, giving her control. If it wasn't her, then it was them, becoming sentient.
 
Charlie jerked, taken out of the moment by the sudden panic in Stu's voice. "What? What's wrong?!" she asked. Both Harley and the creature paused, though Stu could feel the creature throbbing (or was that just Charlie's soaked pussy?) and Harley pouted at him.

She seemed surprised, and looked down at the creature, then back at Harley. "I... Wait. I'm controlling them?"

Harley nodded, grinning. "That you are, puddin'!"

Charlie grinned, a wicked glint in her eyes, and leaned forward, sinking back down over Stu's cock until it and the creature were buried back inside her canal. Then, sticking her tongue out in concentration, she had the tentacle wrapped around his cock start moving again, stroking him, but very slowly, clearly testing. Meanwhile, Harley's hands left Charlie's hips, one of them coming around to her clit while the other went back behind her and between her legs, where she started massaging Stu's balls gently.

Charlie was in heaven - the stroking tentacle was rubbing against every inch of her canal walls while it jerked Stu's cock, which left her feeling the best parts of both being fucked by a ridged member, and being filled to the brim at the same time. She looked down at Stu with a hazy look of lust, smirking. "Mmm yes, I'm gonna bring you up nice and slow... and when you cum, you're going to cum so hard you'll fill me up and gush out," she promised, kissing him softly.
 
"Oh, thank Christ!" Stu hid and rubbed his face, clearly relieved that his creations hadn't become autonomous. That would have been bad for the both of them. Rogue, sentient dreams were bad enough, but drawing the attention of Morpheus, lord of dreams was worse, and nothing drew his attention faster than giving life to a dream, letting it become so real that it could exist on its own!

He lowered his hands down to his nose and looked up at Charlie, grinning behind his fingers. "I'm in for it now, aren't i?" He asked with a playful giggle. "Ahfuck!" He gasped out as she reclaimed him and the bundle of pulsing, throbbing tentacles wrapped tight and wet around him. "I can feel it stroking me Charlie, are you trying to drive me insane here or what? Nnn! So slow... can't stop it... no control...hhh-hhh-hhh..." he was panting with need, tossing his head from side to side as he reached out to touch her, grasp her, hold her! Anything to keep ahold of himself! The shoe was on the other foot jow, and she was seducing him with his own power! "Sooo unfair!" He whimpered pressing his head into the pillows and squeezing his eyes shut, trembling from the slowlyrics building force of his impending orgasm.

"Yah!" His eye whipped open and he jerked upward when he felt Harley's cool, soft hand on his balls. God, he was sensitive! "Ha-ha-ha! Jeeze, Harley and Charlie... ya startled me with that little tickle!" He huffed out, regaining a little of his composure after that shock.

He looked up into Charlies lust hazed eyes, wetting his lips and nodding ad she told him what she wanted to do to him. "Yeah! Yeah! Make me explode, darlin! I've got so much cum stored up its gonna gush everywhere! Nnngyah! Fuck! I... I can't stop it! I cant... hold... back! Here... it... cummms!" He throbbed and spasmed, having his cock stroked by the alien thing inside of her. Feeling little sicker kiss and suck all along his length as he shot an almost endless suplex of his cum up inside of her.
 
Charlie's eyes, still dark with lust, went wide at the way Stu reacted to her treatment. God, the sounds he made were so hot! She was starting to think she'd be able to get off on that alone...

And then, he exploded, bursting inside her, and the feeling of his cum shooting deep into her full womb was enough to set her off, too, and she bucked, crying out in pleasure as her own orgasm hit her hard, on the tails of his. Her pussy gripped and sucked on his cock while the tendril continued to work both of them through the dizzying height of their mutual orgasms. Once it was finally finished, Charlie collapsed forward onto Stu's chest, panting hard. The tentacle creature started withdrawing back into her body, releasing his cock and slithering back up inside her, but even that limited sensation made her body jerk with oversensitive pleasure.

"Oh... my god." She sighed, nuzzling her cheek against his shoulder, just enjoying the comfort of lying there, close to him. "You are incredible. I can't even describe how amazing." She smiled. "You can come up and wake me whenever you want... but I'd like it a lot if we could just have a few minutes to ourselves like this..."
 
Stu was drained, he had never had an orgasm in a dream, not as his true self at any rate. He chuckled and ran his hands over his smooth, leathery head. "Yeah, copy that, times about a million, billion." He replied after she sighed out oh my god. "I'm incredible? What about you? Taking over the control like that!? Holy shit! That's never happened before! I was worried when I lost control, I thought...." his eyes shifted over to see the way Harley peeked over Charlies shoulder, grinning like the cat who ate the Canary. "Um....Charlie... Dont freak out but... are you still controlling Harley? " his stomach started doing flips as he felt a strange sensation at the head of his cock, still inside of Charlie. It was like a tight membrane was slipping free of his entire lenght, sucking the last drops of his cum up as it slipped away, hiding in Charlies womb.
 
Charlie blinked lazily at Stu, confused by his concern, and looked over her shoulder at Harley, who instantly looked perfectly innocent, doing absolutely nothing she wasn't supposed to be doing. Charlie frowned. Her control had always been subconscious anyway, for the most part. It didn't look like Harley was doing anything weird. "Uh. I think so? Why-"

And abruptly, the dream ended in a flash. Charlie jerked awake, gasping at that sensation you get sometimes when you're nearly asleep and you feel for a split second like you're falling. What the hell? She looked around, realizing she was still perfectly naked, and sighed. So much for snuggling. Oh well. She gathered up her clothes and changed, making a stop in the bathroom to clean herself up on the way out. She usually physically orgasmed when Stu make her cum in her dreams, but this time, it seemed like there was a lot of liquid leaking out. If she didn't know better, she might have wondered if it was his cum.

Thankfully, she knew better. Right?

--------

A few minutes later, she emerged from the back room wearing her usual jeans and t-shirt. A few of the guys gathered around the table for the Magic tournament waved in greeting, and she grinned, waving back.

Stu was still standing behind the counter and, without thinking, she walked up behind him, caught him by the shoulder, and planted a quick kiss hello onto his lips. It wasn't until the entire store went dead silent at the sight that she realized she was technically kissing him in public... and she hadn't really asked if it was okay. She pulled back, looking carefully at him, waiting for his response, ready to jump in and apologize if he was upset.
 
Stu let out a deep breath as Charlie reassured him she was still in control but then, while her eyes were back in him Harley stuck her tongue out at him and made a face, squeezing his balls... hard! He yelped and snapped out of the dream to protect himself! Everyone looked up at him confused and nervous. "Charlie horse!" He grunted, kicking the base board a couple times as if he were trying to relax his leg. They all shook their heads and went back to playing. "Weird Stu... Weird..." some of them muttered his old nick name.

He waited impatiently for Charlie to Com back down, he could hear her up there, walking around, thankfully no one else noticed. "Finally!" He muttered under his breath, his balls still aching from the dream squeeze 'Harley' had given him. He half turned just in time to get a nice wet kiss smack on the lips! It was so hot that it made him stumble a little bit, catching hold of the register, hitting about fifteen random keys, making make all sort of typing sounds, drawing everyone's attention.

*caching! Caching! Caching!*

"Mmm... mmmph! Mmmph!" He hummed in pleasure at first, his eyes closed momentarily, enjoying the kiss before he suddenly noticed the dead silence and his eyes flew open wide, gently nudging her back to give him room to breath. If no one had been there, they would have probably sunk to the floor and done it again, right there!

But he had to talk to her about that last second of her dream! It was really important! Dangerously important! His sore balls were at stake, it was so important!

He did his best to act cool, like he knew what that looked like in this day and age... "yeah, we kissed! Any of you have a problem with that?!" He locked eyes with Jeff who was standing there with his mouth hanging open. Jeff was the first to turn around, even ordering some of the guys around him to knock it off and stop gawking. The only one who dared to Crack a joke was Joe. "Oh... I get it! Charlie... horse! Bwahahaha! Good one Stu! You go get her, tiger!" He cheered him on as he gave Joe the finger and dragged Charlie back into the back room. "Eeker, eeker, eeker!" Joe teased them mercilessly, making Stu shout. "Joe!!!" Shutting him up with a but of gaffaws.

He turned to Charlie and got serious all of a sudden. "I think we might have a problem... I don't think either of us was in control of that dream, not by the end anyway... unless you made Harley give me a purple nurple on my balls..."
 
When Stu dragged Charlie into the back with him, she was convinced he was upset with her for kissing him. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry! I wasn't thinking! I really should have asked you if you were okay with going public with our relationship before I just..."

She stopped, then listening to what Stu was actually saying. Her jaw dropped open. "She what?! Holy shit! That must have really hurt! I swear, that was definitely not me!" She had a lot of weird fantasies, but that whole ball-stomping thing? WAY beyond anything she had any interest in, that much was for sure. Hell, she didn't even have balls and she was cringing at the thought of it.

She looked up at him, clearly worried. "So... what does that mean? Is Harley being controlled by someone else? Another incubus, maybe?"
 
"What?" Stu laughed, unintentionally. "No! I'm happy everyone knows! Saves us a lot of bullshit running around, I'd kind of like to stick it to Joe though... eeka, eeka, eeka, indeed." He shook his head and laughed it off. "Yeah! Oh yeah! I think she pushed me out of the dream to stop me from saying anything to you there. Anyway..." he smiled and kissed Charlie on the lips again, to reassure her he was okay. "I'm fine, I shunted out of the dream fast enough. I think that's what woke you up, sorry about that."

"Hmmm... it's possible, but I doubt that. I think it's kind of... um... my fault... any time I mane fest a character in a dream, I invest it with a bit of my essence, so it seems real. But usually I only manifest something once... I've never been in the same girls dreams more than that... I think... maybe... it's real now... a sort of half life, the alien, I mean, and Harley too. They are independent beings now, made manifest by our mutual desires.... what's worse is I kind of... gave it my seed... ive... um... never cum in a dream before, not as myself... I don't know what they want, but I think they are going to be there when you sleep again... ugh... I really messed up... do you think you can forgive me Charlie? I don't know what to do. I don't think they will let me back into your dreams and I don't know what they want... maybe it's just a place to exist, now that they are real?"
 
To be honest, Charlie didn't know why he was apologizing. The thought of having Harley and the tentacle monster show up on a regular basis seemed pretty awesome, actually. Well, until he suggested they might now let Stu back into her dreams. That made her frown. "Shit. I don't want you to have to stay out..." She bit her lip. "I mean, if Harley is real now, I'll just go to sleep again and ask her why she won't let you dream with me. Maybe get some answers."

She kind of ignored the rest of it. The concerns about his cumming in a dream, and about their desires making the manifestations live on their own... Maybe it was just that she didn't know much about dreams, but none of that seemed terribly worrying to her.
 
"Okay... okay... yeah, you talk to her and see if you can find out what they want... theres just one last thing though. If they escape your mind, like I think they want to, if they go out into the oceanic dream scape, they could hurt people... I mean, really fuck with their heads. And if they make too much of a mess out there, there's only one being that can stop them. To you know your mythology? Does Morpheus ring a bell? Well, he's not exactly like the old myths but he, it... the personification of dreams and the master over them... he exists and you really don't want to get on his bad side. Essentially, if he found out I made those two real and they went out and made a mess, he'd... welll... he'd pretty much send me back to hell... You'd still have Stu I guess, but I wouldn't be a part of him any more... so..."

Stu leaned in closely to whisper in her ear. "This is really important, okay? If worse comes to worse and I get sent away... you need to remember my name..." he got even closer, his eyes darting around, his hand on her cheek now and it was trembling. "Remember... Enumael.... remember..." he whispered and as he spoke his true name a mighty wind whisked through the streets outside making the window panes shudder and the door let out a whining moan ant the bells outside the door chime a bit. In an instant everything settled back to normal and he had to shush her before she repeated his true name again. "Shhh! Don't speak it... ever... unless you lose me... and even then... don't be indoors... or around glass or heavy objects... okay? In fact, try to be out in the middle of nowhere... preferably with someone... um... how can I put this... weak willed?"
 
Charlie listened to Stu's explanation, her eyes going wide as saucers as he explained about Morpheus. "I... I mean, I read Sandman, but that's about as familiar as I get..." God. He sounded terrifying. And he was going to send her lover back to hell if they escaped?

She swallowed hard when he touched her cheek, the gravity of the situation really hitting her when she realized he was trembling. He told her his name, and she felt it. The wind make the wood of the building creak and moan, and she felt the whole room shudder. She squeaked, pulling herself closer to him in a combination of surprise and fear. She tried to repeat it back to him, to make sure she got the pronunciation correct, but he shushed her, and she nodded.

And what was this about bringing someone weak-willed?! Could she really do that to someone who didn't want it? "What about Stu? Wouldn't he let you back in? Or me? Could you just possess me instead, if it came down to it?"
 
Stu smiled and winked at Charlie when she mentioned Neil Gaiman's Sandman. "Yeah... about that... You know how sometimes, every so often, not frequently, but every now and then, there's an author who taps into a concept so brilliant and chilling that you think to yourself, maybe, just for an instant, oh my god, that is just too much to be real, and you can't help but sit up in bed, staring at the walls, holding your knees in tight, rocking yourself awake, cause you're sure, just positive that that one section of the floor shifted, or something is outside your window, staring in at you, wondering what your marrow tastes like? Let's just say that if comic book stores had a non fiction section, Sandman would be in it, right next to H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King."

This was really unfair of him, he knew, getting her involved in the next level shit that most humans got to live their entire lives blissfully unaware of. He felt the worst when she squeaked in fear and sort of shrunk in against his form. There were reasons why his kind didn't date and this was kind of it, getting people caught up in the strange world that he came from didn't help a person's life expectancy when it more often than not painted a target on them.

He nodded, teary eyed, moved by her offer. "Sure, I'm sure Stu... I mean, yes, I would let it back in. I'm nothing without him... god... Charlie... you would let me?" He was openly crying now, tears rolling down his cheeks over the fact that she offered herself so intimately to him. "It's possible, I suppose, but wouldn't you rather I be apart from you? So that I can hold you and love you? I mean, it's kind of hard to no be your lover if I'm inside of you... I mean... one with you... oh... you know what I mean! Come here you!" He pulled her into a deep, soul warming, toe curling kiss aND as he pulled back to look into her eyes, running a hand through her long red hair, he whispered. "I can't do that to you if I'm sharing your body, you know." He paused, eyeing her long and hard. "That's not a fantasy of yours, is it? Being 'posessed'?" He grinned, kind of liking the idea of getting to wear her body for a week or two, no no better way to learn all of her delicious in and outs. "Cause it's possible, you just let me in, and we can bond, like Stu and I have... but... what about me? I mean Stu? Would you stick with me, Damn it, I mean Stu if this part of me entered you? He's, I mean I'm kind of scared you'll leave me if I'm not supernatural anymore... would you give him back? "
 
Charlie hadn't expected the kind of reaction she got to offering to take him into herself. She frowned, thinking at first something was wrong when she saw his tears. She started trying to wipe them away with her thumbs, but then he gathered her up into his arms and kissed her thoroughly, leaving her breathless and slightly dizzy. "S-Stu..." she began, her voice shaking a little, but it seemed he wasn't finished speaking yet. He asked her if she had a fantasy about being possessed, and she giggled, shaking her head.

"Well, I mean, I don't see why I'd leave you, Stu, yeah. Assuming you don't become a TOTALLY different person without the demon... I really like you. A lot. I think... I kind of think I have for a while, but didn't really realize it, you know? I mean, I'm not going to lie, I like it better this way, because you're right, I love that you can hold me and kiss me. But if it came down to it? If you were sent back to hell, and there was no one else who could take you into their body, I'd be happy to do it." Then she smiled and kissed him softly. "Of course I would."
 
"No kidding? Gosh... I mean, I've known you for... seven years? I think, you've been coming in? Do you remember how I was those first two? Because apt hat was how I was without the demon... kind of quiet and just really shy and depressed... i... actually... did this because of you, I mean you were the only girl coming in the shop before the big marvel movie boom made super heroes hot and stuff. I though you were so pretty but I'd never stand a chance with you... I wonder if I ever would have without these powers he gives me... do you think up you would have ever noticed me? I mean, it's okay if you wouldn't have... I understand, really. I'm nothing without the demon. So, yes, as long as I'm alive, I would welcome him back into me without a moments hesitation."
 
Charlie blushed brightly at his admission that he did this for her. "Notice you?" she repeated, grinning sheepishly. "I... I don't know. I mean, I thought for those first few years you just didn't like me because you never seemed to want to say more than a few words to me. It was like you were trying to figure out how you could get me out of your store with the least amount of interaction... I had no idea it was because you were that shy. I thought you didn't like me for some reason. I..." She blushed. "I kind of thought you were one of those assholes who thought I was a fake geek just because I'm a girl, and that's why you didn't want to talk to me. So I dunno if I would have noticed you like that, because it's kind of hard to notice someone romantically when you think they secretly hate you..."

"Oh god... is that how I came across? I am so sorry. I was just really nervous around you, afraid I'd say or do the wrong thing and then... well... I'm really embarassed to admit this... but I started um... fantasizing about you and that just made seeing you in person that much more awkward... I didn't want you to think I was some horny horn dog or nothing, but every time you would come in... I kind of... sort of... started getting... like, really turned on... I guess the faster I could get you out of the store, the sooner I could go hide and... well... take care of myself? I know... ew, right? I'm soooooooooo embarassed! You almost caught me one day! You remember when I was back in the back behind that stack of comic boxes doing... inventory? Yeah... um... my pants were literally down... oh god, can I just curl up and die now?"
 
Charlie snickered, pulling him in for another kiss in the attempt to soothe his embarrassment. "Don't worry so much. Seriously, you caught me touching myself to hentai, which is how this whole thing started, so I don't really think I'm in a place to judge. Besides... it's kind of flattering, actually."

She smiled and stepped away from him, tugging on his hand. "Come on, we should go back out lest the guys start assuming we're actually having sex back here."
 
]

"Sure, now you can say that, but at the time, I was like one nudge away from having that entire stack toppling over and the jig would have totally been up! I'm sure exposing myself to you back then would have just gone over hunky dory, right ?" He winked and laughed, catching hef hand and pulling her back tow him. "It was kind of hot, catching you though... I mean, I didn't see anything, but I could tell by your face what you were doing..." he pulled her back again, grinning, that grin, the one that asked, why not? "I'm sure they already are..." he slipped a hand between her legs and breathed in the scent of her hair. "I know, I know... not now... just had to cop a feel before going back out there..." he laughed softly as she pulled away.
 
Charlie shot him a look as he groped at her before releasing her again. "I see how it is. You just can't stand the idea of not being the only thing I'm thinking about, right?" she teased, returning his grab with one of her own before heading back out into the store with a laugh.

It was late that night when Charlie finally went home. As promised, Stu didn't meet her in her dreams. Instead, she found herself in a strange, dream-like version of her own apartment, with the alien still snuggled firm in her swelling belly, and Harley sitting on her couch.

Charlie, approached, nervous. What if she was cruel? What if she was here to hurt Charlie and just needed to get rid of Stu in order to do it?"Um. So, Stu said you aren't let him into my dreams anymore. Why? Is there anything I could do to convince you to let him back in?"
