The unfortunate results
Belinda frowned. "What happened to the whole nature's rules?"
Damien said nothing and blushed.
"Then you have the nerve to do that to Jennifer?" Belinda growled.
"Ah, I know it sounds bad but-"
Belinda tackled Damien and began to punch him.
Jennifer looked to Lily. "Strip chess huh? Where have you been?"
"Well Damien and I started talking and then we went to the forest together and played games and stuff. This is the most nudity we've had. I swear," Lily said.
"Alright," Jennifer said.
"Jennifer... I think I love him..." Lily said with a blush.
"What? You mean... really?
Lily nodded. Jennifer stood and then smiled slightly.
"I was curious okay?" Damien shouted.
"Curious? What the hell kind of excuse is that?" Belinda shouted punching him again.
Jennifer and Lily's eyes widened and after several more blows via Belinda and around 15 minuets of calming her down, they were able to get to her to stop attacking Damien.
"I won't do it again Belinda I promise," Damien said.
"You better not, if you hurt Jennifer in any way I will eat Lily," Belinda threatened.
Damien, Lily and Jennifer stared at Belinda. Her stomach then growled loudly.
"I'm gonna go," Belinda said going off.
Jennifer sensed that something wasn't right. She went off and followed Belinda.
"Did you mean it?" Jennifer asked.
"What?"
"That you'd eat Lily," Jennifer said.
"I don't know," Belinda replied not looking at Jennifer, Belinda feared if she did she would eat Jennifer.
Jennifer sensed something wrong. Belinda wasn't acting normal and her stomach had growled so loudly before, it wasn't like her to not eat.
"Belinda are you okay?" Jennifer asked.
"I'm hungry," Belinda said.
"Well why don't go hunt?" Jennifer asked.
"I can't eat girls Jennifer," Belinda said stopping in her tacks. "whenever I even think about hunting... I think of you and what happened. Then I just can't... I see you getting hurt..."
"Belinda..." Jennifer said.
"I'm don't think we can be together..." Belinda said.
"What do you mean? Belinda I'm fine! Damien's not going to do anything and I think we are finally in the clear. After we get you eating something we'll be-"
"I'm thinking about eating you right now Jennifer," Belinda interrupted. "About bolting you down. I don't want you to get hurt. This is over," Belinda then slithered off.
Jennifer stood tears welling in her eyes. She slowly walked home and barely said anything the whole night.
Friday...
"Jennifer are you okay?" Lily asked.
"Fine! Never better!" Jennifer said perkily. "Why?"
"First of all, you have been staring at your food instead of eating it all lunch, and your doing that thing you do again," Lily pointed out.
"What thing?" Jennifer asked smiling.
"Where you are so upset you come full circle and start to act waaaay too perky," Lily said.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Jennifer said.
"Did something happen with Belinda?" Lily asked.
Jennifer said nothing and then the bell rang.
"Got to go to class," Jennifer said sounding sad.
Jennifer tried to look cheerful throughout the day. At the end of school she stood in the ally waiting for Belinda like she had been doing for the past few days. She waited and waited till her alarm on her phone went off. Jennifer had to go to work.
Jennifer started chop onions, peppers and things at work. She tried not to think of Belinda. She just couldn't, it hurt too much. Jennifer had been looking for her for days now with no luck.
"Hey Jennifer, we're packing up. You want the extra stuff? I think we have as many burritos that we could build another person," the cook laughed.
This gave Jennifer an idea. "Yeah I'll take them all!" Jennifer exclaimed.
Belinda was trying to eat fairies in the forest. Her body was so thin one could see her bones. She snapped her jaws at them, but they easily eluded her.
Damien saw her. "Belinda what are you doing?"
"Hunting," Belinda said jumping at fairies.
"Belinda stop. What is going on?"
"Nothing," Belinda said.
"You are starving yourself and you are hunting fairies. Fairies, Belinda." Damien pointed. "At least when you were with Jennifer you were healthy. Now..."
"I can't eat girls Damien! I just can't!" Belinda shouted. "You don't understand."
"I do. I stopped eating girls too because of Lily. Every time I see her or we kiss I think of eating her. You know that? I only eat men now." Damien said.
"Well whoopdie flipping do!" Belinda shouted. "I can only eat girls! Not men! Just... just go away Damien," Belinda said.
Damien wanted to say something, but sighed and then slithered off.
"Belinda?" a voice called from the distance.
Belinda froze. "No...," she knew that voice all too well.
Jennifer came through the trees and froze when she saw Belinda. "Belinda... what happened to you?"
"Go away Jennifer," Belinda said looking at her. Belinda was already moving closer to her. Sizing Jennifer up for her throat...
"We can work through this. I brought you something," Jennifer said reaching into her bag and pulling out a burrito.
"I don't eat human food..." Belinda said.
"You've never tried it," Jennifer said.
Belinda looked at it. "I don't know..."
"We won't till you try," Jennifer said.
Belinda took it and hesitated.
"Come on Belinda you can do it," Jennifer encouraged.
Belinda swallowed it whole, it didn't feel right. She shook her head.
"Try chewing it," Jennifer said handing Belinda another.
Belinda sighed and bit into the burrito and her eyes widened. It was spicy and the ingredients spilling into her mouth felt so strange to her. Belinda then swallowed.
"Well?" Jennifer asked.
"Its good," Belinda said smiling.
Jennifer beamed. "Good because I have a lot more," she said dumping all the burritos out of her bag. Belinda and Jennifer laughed.
Belinda picked up another and stared at it. Jennifer moved closer to Belinda and smiled. However, Belinda wasn't satisfied with what she had. The burritos only seemed to rouse her hunger.
"I knew we'd figure it out," Jennifer said to Belinda with a smile.
"Yeah..." Belinda said. She coiled around Jennifer.
Jennifer looked up at Belinda and blinked. "You full already?" Jennifer asked.
"Famished actually," Belinda said staring at Jennifer.
"Belinda?"
Belinda was blinded by her hunger and didn't realize it was Jennifer in her coils. Belinda unhinged jaw and started on Jennifer's head.
"Belinda its me Jennifer!" Jennifer shouted, however part of it was muffled from being said into Belinda's body.
Belinda said nothing, and swallowed Jennifer down. She let out a content sigh. Belinda enjoyed the spicy taste Jennifer left in her mouth. Jennifer hit Belinda's stomach and began to panic. She made sure not to breath too much or move.
"Belinda!" Jennifer shouted.
Belinda looked down at her stomach. "Shh, be quiet and digest. After this I am going to see Jennifer."
"But I am Jennifer!" she shouted.
"Hush please, I'm going to take a nap," Belinda said laying down.
Jennifer bagged on Belinda's stomach. However, Belinda only smiled and closed her eyes. Jennifer winced at the acid on her skin. She heard Belinda's lungs expand in a relaxed fashion. Jennifer knew Belinda was asleep. No matter how many times she banged on Belinda's stomach Belinda's wasn't waking up.
"Ah!" Jennifer yelped, the acid was getting down to her nerves. She didn't want to look at her burning body, Jennifer knew if she did she would panic.
"Belinda... I know you're going to wake up and realize what's happened..." Jennifer said weakly. "I want you to know its okay... We'll always be together now... and forever" Jennifer said weakly closing her eyes.
Six hours later Belinda woke up with a yawn.
"It feels good waking up after eating," Belinda said. "Now I can see Jennifer!" Belinda exclaimed, not knowing what she had done. Belinda began to slither to Jennifer's house when she saw Jennifer's bag.
"No... no, no, no!" Belinda shouted as she realized. She placed her hand of her belly, she felt a small bulge.
Belinda punched herself in the gut and stuck her finger down her throat to throw up. Up into her mouth came a broken elastic hair band. Belinda pulled it out of her mouth. Tears then came to her eyes. She knew who's it was. Belinda bowed her head and tears ran down her face. Her body shook as she cried.
"Jennifer... Jennifer," Belinda cried.
Belinda's tears continued to flow as she mourned the loss of her dear Jennifer.
The End
(Indeed a much sadder ending. I decided to put this alternate first so we can all go out on a better note for the second alternate ending.)
