At age 21, Eric and I got married. Eric had the rest of our life planned out from there. We were aiming to have our first child around the time of our first anniversary, which would be the summer after graduation. So a month after the wedding, we had an extravagant three month honeymoon booked, to make sure that happened on schedule, if the wedding night hadn't accomplished the goal already.
We were at an island resort, with nothing to do but lie on the beach, when we even left the cabana that is. Everywhere around us there were other newlyweds like us, parents with their kids, and some empty nesters. A couple days after we got there, I found out that I hadn't gotten pregnant the night of the wedding, so we had some trying to do.
At first it was a lot of fun, trying to make a baby together. Eric got especially excited when I told him it was my most fertile time of the month, and I got especially worked up that night too. He left three loads in me that night and another in the morning. I couldn't imagine how it wouldn't happen. But our first month at the resort came and went with no results.
That second month, we were a little disappointed, a little bored of lying on the same beach, swimming in the same stretch of sea. The sex was still great, even if the excitement of trying to get pregnant was starting to wane. We tried all sorts of positions. The night I was ovulating was still special, and we stayed up late, staying conjoined as long as we could.
By the third month, Eric was really starting to really worry. I knew it wasn't unusual at all for it to take more than three months, even though the other women in my family had all gotten pregnant very easily. If we didn't conceive during the honeymoon, that would throw off all of Eric's carefully made plans for the years to come. So he decided to take desperate measures.
I don't know how he heard about this place, but one night he told me that in the interior of the island, there was a temple to some sort of local fertility god. Apparently Eric had talked to couples who had gone there and conceived, and he suggested that he and I might give it a try, just for the fun of it, not that he really believed in it or anything. I wanted him to be happy, and I was bored of the resort, so I agreed to it.
We rented a scooter from the resort and drove up to this temple. The place was splendid. I wasn't sure why I hadn't heard of it, or read about it in any of the guidebooks, or seen any pictures online. The architecture was unlike anything I'd seen before, on the island or anywhere else. It looked old, ancient actually, and yet it was in great condition, painted vibrantly and touched with gold leaf.
Temple attendants showed us into a room with sliding wooden doors and a flat bed on the floor in the center of the room. They told us to take off our clothes and await a visitation of the god. At that I was getting a little nervous. I wasn't sure what we had really gotten ourselves into.
When we were both naked, the door opened, and a naked man entered. He had flawless bronze skin, and he was almost completely hairless. He was a little on the short side, unintimidating in physique. His head was shaved nearly bald.
In a soft but wise voice, he explained that he would watch over us as we copulated and ensure that we conceived. "But first you must light the candle. As long as the candle burns, you are sure to conceive."
"The candle?" Eric asked, looking around. There wasn't much else in the room. The only light was sunlight outside, filtering in through wood paneling.
The stranger gestured to his flaccid member. "First you must light the candle."
Eric was starting to get irritated. "Hey, no one told me about this," he complained to the fertility god. "I swear, no one told me about this part," he explained to me as well.
I just wanted to diffuse the situation. But I also felt a charge in the air ever since the stranger entered the room. Something that made me want to do things I normally wouldn't do.
"It's okay, honey," I said. "I'll handle it. It's fine."
"You expect my wife to get you erect?" Eric asked him.
"It is not always the woman who lights the candle," our god said. Eric did a double take, but to his credit, he considered it.
"Fine," Eric said. "Whatever you have to do, Cheryl. But I don't want to watch. I'm going to wait outside." He stepped out of the little room and slid the door closed behind him.
