10. Miss Beans

Jake snorted impatiently. Beans had gone for more than 15 minutes. She has asked him to go out for a moment to the "toilet". It was dark outside.
Jake hissed annoyed.
"Long siting time," he muttered.
He knew that woman needed longer sometimes, but so long?
He winced. She wouldn't… no she would never. Anyway. He left the cave and looked outside.
He stopped when he saw a familiar shadow on a hill. The female lizard stared at the moon and didn't move. The rattlesnake inclined his head. Was she frozen again?
He crawled at her slowly. Beans didn't react when he came closer.
He pushed forward his tail slowly and touched her shoulder.
Beans whirled around with shock. "Jake! Are you crazy?!"
"You didn't come."
"Were you worried?" she asked sarcastically.
"No. I just thought you would be fallen in sleep."
"You see, I didn't. Would you also come if I had needed more time for it?"
Jake grinned in the darkness, but became serious fast again.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing. I just wanted to be alone."
Jake raised his eyebrows. "First you said you are alone too much and now you want to be alone when I'm here."
Beans snorted quietly and looked again to the moon.
Jake did the same and didn't know what she expected to see. His glance wandered back to her and scrutinized her.
Her eyes seemed to be sad, but her face kept neutral.
"Do you want to watch me the whole time?" she asked and looked at him a little upset.
"If you wish to be alone, I will let you alone," he said calmly. "But you should know that there are dangerous animals around in the night which could kill you."
He grinned darkly, while Beans showed herself unimpressed.
"You are dangerous enough. What more dangerous could be here?"
Jake bent his neck. "So, and you aren't afraid?"
"I'm not afraid."
He came closer with his face. Beans's eyes became a little wider. She had never seen Jake's eyes in pure darkness. The red-yellow fire seemed to be more intensive than in the daylight and his pupils reflected silver in the moonlight. It looked very dangerous, but she wasn't afraid. She felt really no fear. It was the opposite feeling when he had forced her to sign the paper months ago. But his presence was still gigantic and mysterious. He was so different than Rango. When Rango stood next to here in a night like this, he was a little shy, but friendly and helpfully. He gave her his blanket to become warm. They tried to talk. Things about past, presence and what will be. The sheriff had respected her privacy. Just his kiss was a little saucy, but she liked that.
She winced when she felt Jake's body against her back. The rattlesnake showed more self-confidence. No smack of artlessness or shyness. He always seemed to know what he want to do. His movement were always imperious, but he gave her freedom for decisions. He didn't force her for something what she never wanted. Until now.
"Do you want to stay alone here longer?" Jake asked with deep voice.
"No." Beans loosed her eyes from his eyes. "I'm ready."
She turned around with raised head.
They went back to the cave. An oil lamp and a campfire was the only things, which lighted the cave hall.
"So, are you ready for sleep?" Jake asked.
"I just have to clean my teeth."
While Beans cleaned her teeth, Jake slithered behind her.
"Listen. I thought about something."
"About what?" Beans asked with toothpaste in her mouth.
"We will travel near a town, where you could get some company."
"From whom?"
Beans rinsed out her mouth.
"I will find someone. Maybe a child."
"Jake!" She wiped her mouth. "You will not dare to kidnap someone?"
"I didn't say. Don't worry. I will not harm someone. I gave you my word, when you came with me, didn't I?"
"Yes, you did."
"Fine. And you will have more things to do. There is more vegetation. Don't women like flowers?"
"Since when do you understand such things?"
"Would that be okay for you, woman?"
Beans sighed. „Jake, please. Don't call me like that. Could we talk together like friends at least?"
"Friends?"
"It would me not such a strange feeling."
Jake kept silence for a moment. A dark smile played his mouth. "Alright. Beans."
"Miss Beans."
"Alright…. Miss Beans."
They looked at each other. Then Jake turned around and extinguished the lights. The cave was half in darkness. Just the moon gave his weak light. The rattlesnake slithered to their sleeping place.
"Let's go to bed."
When Jake said these words on their first day when they were arrived here, Beans had been a little shocked. She had afraid to lay beside him. But it became less from day to day. At least, he never tried to touch her.
Jake rolled himself in a corner, which had covered with blankets and pillows.
Beans knew the process. She waited until Jake placed his body in the right position. When he rested his head on his coils, she walked in his direction and lay himself next to him. She placed a pillow under her head and laid a blanket over her body.
Jake watched her silently. Seven day had passed since she was in his home. He never asked her to come closer or more. She wasn't ready for that step. And Jake asked himself secretly whether she would ever be ready for that.
"Good night, Jake."
Jake blinked. "Yes… Good night."
He forgot to say her name. Beans didn't mind and put her head on the pillow and closed her eyes. Silence lay over the cave and no sound interrupted their sleep. At least almost. Beans kept awake a while. She didn't dare to come closer in Jake's near. Every night. Always if the sun disappeared, she got a bad feeling in her stomach. What if Jake wanted to have more?
He never touched her. But despite that, she was worried. They were alone here. He was a man, she was a woman. He was stronger than her. It would be easy for him to overmaster her. She shivered a little and Jake felt it.
"Anything wrong?"
She opened her eyes wide. "Uh… why?"
"You are cramped. I feel that. Do you feel cold?"
"No, no," Beans answered quickly.
"Do you mind if I embrace you a little?"
Beans stopped breathing a second. "It's your home."
"I also want to know your opinion."
"I don't mind," she whispered.
"So is that true?"
"Yes, it is."
She didn't see his face, but she felt, he smiled.
She winced when a rustling sound surrounds her. His long body circled around the lizard and lifted a little her upper body with her pillow. Another part was wrapped under her chest. She cried silently when she felt his body on her legs.
"Do you lay comfortable?"
She nodded. "Y-yes I do."
"Fine." He petted over her back. His mouth was very close over her head. She felt his breathing. She pressed her eyes together. The memory of his tongue kiss in the past was still in her mind. "Keep your tongue inside," she thought pleadingly. "I don't want it."
She opened her eyes wide when his lips touched her neck. She lay stiffly there.
He loosed his lips from her and whispered with deep voice. "Good night."
"Good night," Beans replied hoarsely.
Jake bent back and silence came back. She heard his breathing. She lay his head closer on his body. She heard his softly heartbeat. It wondered her how death can have life inside. She still couldn't believe that she laid alive next to the death.
She shivered again when Jake moved his muscles. She dared to reached out her flat hand and petted over his rough skin. His scales were hard and robust. When she touched it, the skin contracted a little.
Jake said nothing while she did. He liked that.
Until she stopped and her breath became calmer.
After one hour, he moved his head in her direction and opened his fiery eyes.
He watched her and lifted his upper body a little.
He wondered how a little thing can have so much facets. She had learned to hide her feelings.
Her love still belonged to him. Although she said, she had forgotten him. When he talked about "him", something flinched in her brown eyes. Like a lightning the memories which she had buried deep inside her and jumped out like from the darkness.
He put her body down again. Her hands moved a little. She dreamed. Her lips trembled. Her dreams comprised just about him. A world, which he could never forbid her. She was a prisoner of her own thoughts.
Would she take it longer? He feared that she could break. But he couldn't imagine that she would kill herself. With that she would break chameleon's neck complete. Or more his heart.
He couldn't respond her feelings how he wanted or how he should. Not like him.
He often thought to force her to love her. He had played often with the thought, but with that he would never win round. Even not her heart. It could be easy for him to defeat her, but she would hate him more for that.
She hated him, but she never said that. She remain resolutely silent.
She missed him.
She formed a word with her lips and he knew what words she whispered.
Rango.
