Staying With Cheshire - Pt. 1

>Life was hard in Monster Girl City.
>Growing up alone with your working mother left you a lot of time on your hands. Time that was spent learning about monsters. And avoiding monsters. And running from monsters.
>You lived in an apartment complex with your mother.
>Your next door neighbor was a little strange. She was a type of monster known as a Cheshire. She lived alone and you didn't know where she worked, or how she got by. The problem was... she kept watching you.
>Attention from Monster Girls was something to avoid. Sadly you were blessed with good looks, even if they were a bit too innocent and 'cute'. It got you a lot of attention at school. So far you managed to be savy enough to avoid anything but lewd groping. And a few teachers who wanted you to 'stay after class'.
>It was really freaky though how she ended up in the strangest places. She was a beautiful older woman, full and sexy, yet she had the attitude of the animal she resembled. A total cat. And her smile...
>You often caught that smile in the air when you were changing, outside the window when you were getting into the shower, or worse... one night you looked under your bed and... well you never got off the floor and into bed faster.
>Her comments came off teasing and warm, and she was surprisingly kind. She and your mother had become friends, being about the same age. And though you told your mother about how creepy you thought she was, your mother just sighed, "She is a Chesire dear. Its how they act. Wonderland was a really strange place and a lot of monster got warped by the Lilim's powers there. She is just trying to adapt and survive."
>And then came the day when your mother announced she was going on a business trip. And she was leaving you in the care of your neighbor.
>...Yeah. This is going to make for some restless nights.


"Mrrrr... Hello, boy," cooed your licentious neighbor as she welcomed you inside. Her dark purple ears flick and her tail swishes with a definite teasing sort of sway. Somehow, even wearing a blouse and skirt, she managed to look lewd. Her bountiful chest swayed invitingly as she held the door open for you, her skirt riding high and showing off an inordinate amount of leg. Her violet and darker purple colored leg coloration was fully on display, and the fur around her high heeled shoes ruffled as she moved.

Carrying your backpack and a few things you'd need, pocketing the keys to your apartment, you sighed, "I have a name you know."

"I know, but I like calling you 'boy'. It makes me feel empowered," she teased, winking one wide golden eye, the slitted pupils always so subtly inhuman enough to send little spikes of fear through you. Stupid uncanny valley.

Grumbling, you walk further into her apartment. For all your time living next to her, you had never actually been inside. Despite all the times she invited you, you knew better then that. It wasn't the most well kept place. Some empty pizza boxes were stacked on the counter, along with an empty quart bottle of milk. And beer cans. Lots of beer cans. The couch in front of the television was rumpled and well slept in. There were even what looked like pornographic magazines across the arm of the couch.

"...This place is a dump!," you grumble, dropping your bag down and glaring back at her.

"Don't have to be /so/ rude, boy," said the Cheshire with that same lewd little smile on her face. She closed the door with a click, leaning back against it and slid her arms behind her. The door locked with a click, and you gulped. "After all, I'm a friend of your mother's. And I'm doing her the big favor of looking after you while she is away."

You sigh, "And we both know you're just doing it to get me alone and all to yourself. I'm not a /child/. I know how monsters work! 'But I'm just friends with your parent!' Its one of the oldest setups in the book!" You flop down on the couch with a sigh and a huff, crossing your arms. "Just keep away."

To your surprise, instead of quipping back, the room goes silent. By the door, the beautiful cat as lowered her head, her eyes shaded. Her ears have drooped and her tail has gone still. Instead of looking smug or cheerful like she usually does... she looks... sad. You look at her with some surprise, and to your shock you see her quietly shaking.

"...You're crying?"

Her paw comes up and rests against her face, and she continued to quietly shake, her voice coming across a little broken, "Do... do you really not like me?"

Opening your mouth, you stare... then closing your mouth you swallow. You're a good kid, despite the hardship of living in the city, and seeing her like this made something hurt inside. "...I like you. Its just... everyone in this city seems to just want to rape me! I didn't want to move here! But it was the only place Mother could find a job in her field. We had to move here so we could survive." Its your turn to tear up, and you snap out, "Monsters are scary, and I just... don't think I'm ready. Not for casual sex. Not for rape. Not anything! Not after what happened to--..."

You trail off, and then suddenly she is at your side, and your cheek rests against her chest. Your eyes are open wide as she strokes your hair, "...Your mother told me what happened. Your father fought in the war."

"And got tortured and--," you sniffle, and can't help but cling tighter to her. "...got... raped... to death."

The Cheshire sighs and kisses the top of your head with a gentleness she has never shown you before. You couldn't help but notice how soft she was, and how gentle she was. And how good she smelled. Better then even some of the girls your own age at school. "Shhh shhh... ...I know. I know." She sighs. "You have every reason not to trust monsters... really. It will be okay. ...I fought in the war too, hun." She tells you softly.

You stiffen, but then she continues, "...for the good side. When Wonderland broke open it spilled out a lot of craziness onto the world. Some of us just wanted to survive and escape the Queen's rule. Some of us joined with the rest of monster kind and fought to bring down the Queen. I helped."

You tremble softly, then hug her tighter, "I just... its so scary. The idea of what happened to my dad happening to me. Mother trusts you. I just... I don't want to be a victim."

Tilting your head up, you find your teary eyes raised to the golden eyes of the Cheshire, and her smile is slow and gentle, "Silly boy. You can choose not to be."

Your lips were so close, her paws so soft and gentle on your body. Stroking your hair as you heard her tail swish on the carpet. Yet, rather then push her advantage... she got up... peeling herself away from you and smiling. "So... when you trust me, I can take that little virginity of yours~," she teases. Lewdly bending forward to flash her cleavage at you and winking.

"Your room is back here," she motions, pointing with her tail. And mine is here. She flicks her tail to the other one. "Bathroom. Kitchenette..."

"I know... its just like our apartment... except mirrored," you say softly.

"You're well through the looking glass then, boy,~" comes her teasing tone as she struts herself to the balcony, "I'm going to go get some sun! Call me if you need anything!"

You stare after her, and then blush bright red as she strips right out of her blouse. Exposing her naked back and giving a jaunty swish of her hips and tail. Flashing you a grin over her shoulder, steps out and with a sudden flick of motion, she is gone.

She had left you alone. With time to think.
