I hope you enjoy it. The sex is somewhat slack, but... who knows. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Guardians of the Golden Chamber By: H.D. Meister (dez187lm@hotmail.com) It all began with Debra’s first lover. Both were sixteen and full of wonder of the mysteries of the world of sex. His name was Joey, and she thought the world of him. His naturally muscular frame felt great in her hands, and she would frequently find herself lost in his deep blue eyes. It was a night to remember... and forget... for her. It was her sixteenth birthday, and the date they had agreed upon. Together they would shed themselves of the albatross of virginity. They spent the night wrapped in each others frantic... and sometimes clumsy... embrace. Debra lost herself in the glorious sensation of his manhood sliding into her, filling her with pleasure untold. Her dreams could not even hope to achieve the rawness of the reality. She was giving herself totally to Joey... and he to her. Nothing could have spoiled the moment. Nothing... save Fate and Death. When he didn’t show up for class three days after their union, she became frightened. She could not say why the terror of the unknown clasped its talons tight against her chest, but she knew that something had happened to Joey. When the last bell rang, she rushed to her locker, threw her book into it, slammed it closed and ran towards the waiting car her mother drove every day. What awaited her was that car... and a single police car. Death hung in the air like smog. Debra looked to her mother, desperate for some comfort. Even then she knew: Joey was dead. She never bothered to ask what had happened; she simply fell into a fit of anguish. She loved Joey... and was sure that he loved her. Now he was gone... forever. There would not be another to take his place within her life. All that remained was the glow of knowing his naked body next to hers... the feel of his lips as he suckled on her breasts... the loving warmth of his manhood in her hands. And these were but one grain of sand in the love she knew they both shared. At the age of eighteen another rose to prominence within her life. His name was George, and she knew that she was finally ready to move on. Joey still held sway in her life, but he had, in one gentle moment of dreaming, told her to let him go. She stepped gingerly, not wanting George to have the dubious task of fighting a memory. That George understood the power Joey still possessed over the woman who had stolen his heart was a blessing. He longed to hold her... comfort her... through whatever troubles dared approach her. She was a light within his life he would fight to the death to keep lit. The night they consummated their love was truly an event all gods of man witnessed. It had taken her a little more than two years to release Joey, and now she had another who loved her in her grasp. She would remember the strength in his arms as he pulled her into his soul, declaring to all... living and dead... that he truly loved her. She would remember seeing Joey’s ghost wavering in one dark corner of her dorm room... a smile on his lips. Kissing him was not something which was simply done and forgotten; it would linger forever as a proclamation to the universe that true love did exist. Spent with their efforts, they slept. For Debra it was the first peaceful sleep since the day Joey passed on. Three days later, while she was sailing from one problem to the next on a math exam, a familiar tingle passed through her. Finishing the last problem, she lifted her head. Her eyes fell upon the form of a plain clothes policeman; his stance gave him away... in many ways. She shook her head.. slowly at first. When his eyes met hers... and the sorrow within them choked off the though laden air within the classroom... the world ceased to exist. Another had died. One more soul was now removed from this world, and she was once more without someone to love. Despair drove her into the arms of her roommate, a beautiful young woman named Diedre. Within her arms Debra found a sister and friend. She laid open her soul in one downpour, flooding the room with her pain. Diedre rode the storm, and help her to do the same. She found the strength to smile once more, even though it took several months. And through it all, Diedre was there at her side. It was the last night before summer separated them that Debra found comfort not only within her roommate’s caring heart, but within her arms. It was a time for celebration; they had made it through their first semester of classes. Diedre had managed to secure a bottle of wine and together they toasted to the strength within them both. Over the semester, Debra had gotten to know that she was not the only one seemingly denied the touch of another. It was then that she was told that her suspicions about her roommate were indeed correct: she was a lesbian. But that did not matter; Diedre was more human than many of those who tried desperately to lay claim to being men. That she found herself kissing female lips rather than male lips was of little concern. That those lips belonged to someone who truly cared about her was all that mattered. Debra quickly grew accustomed to the softer feel of feminine flesh beneath her fingers. She nursed at Diedre’s center, filling her belly with the nectar of love. It was Diedre who alerted her to the two shadowy figures which stood in the corners of the room. George and Joey smiled at her, freeing her from the chains she herself forged. She was truly free... free once more to love another. She slept fitfully... for three days. Then the terrors returned. No tears flowed down her face this time; she knew that Diedre had met the same fate George and Joey had greeted. She sat in her room and waited for either her mother or father to bring her the news. When it came, she did nothing. Slowly, she saw the pattern of chaos take form before her eyes. She did not try to deny it; whoever loved her and shared her body would know the company of Death three days later. At the age of eighty-eight, Debra finally slept her last. Those who knew her would whisper that she died of heart pain... a rather clinical way to say that lack of love finally stopped her heart’s eternal thunder. She lived, but those close to her knew that what others considered living was the basest form of survival. When they placed her body in the ground, those who attended the funeral would wonder who the three forms standing under the large oak tree by her grave were. They remained silent, but were dressed casually. One was a young boy, barely in his teens by their judgement. Another was just within the gates of manhood. Another was a beautiful woman with dark locks and a smile bright as sunlight on a summer’s day. Three days later, a small child whose ball happened to bounce into the cemetery would run back to his parents and tell of a beautiful woman with golden hair who helped him find his ball. He would tell of the wrinkles in her face... and how they just didn’t match the golden hair on her head. He would insist she was real, and be told that he was dreaming... or that he should be more careful who he talked to. Yet... if you ever attend a certain high school in Denver... or a particular college in Southern Virginia... you will hear the tale spoken again and again. And in each breath, the teller will tell of true love. Every syllable will sound clearly of the truth. True love had a face... and two guardians determined to keep its treasure secret and sacred.
