We'd met over whiskey, by which I mean we were both piss-drunk, and one of us had stumbled into the wrong bathroom. She was out for a night on the town, and I was, well, out as always. Of course I'd seen her in all the magazines and late night talk-shows. She was wearing the same green number she always did. Only I found out they were actually different. On this particular night, she slurred in my ear that it was a gift from Armani himself.
"You can always tell the Armanis," she said, her whetted lips holding my attention, "because he always makes the bust line extra low. That man likes my breasts." She drew a line with her finger, taking my eyes along for the ride. I swear the glitter of her skin is natural.
If she had been anybody else - any other fairy, sprite, elf-queen, witch, or spirit - I'd have been a gentleman and called her a cab. Made sure she got home safe. But this was the one and only Tinkerbell, and there was no way I could pass up getting her in the sack.
Like all my friends, I had seen her sex tape on the internet. Had watched it over and over, her raccoon eyes peering into the camera knowingly. You could practically hear her purring.
But it wasn't like the countless fantasies I'd had. I'd mostly been stuck screwing trolls, and feeling Tink's nearly weightless body soak me in, well, I'd say it was magical. But that doesn't do it justice. For the most part I was trying my best to make things last. And also, to keep a level head. I knew it was a fluke and there was no reason to start letting myself think she would give me her private number.
More than likely she'd sprinkle some of that infamous platinum fairy dust on me, send me packing.
Then the thing with the fairies happened. I'd heard the saying that every time a fairy got laid more were born, but I'd always chalked it up to myth. I'd never heard a concrete story about someone experiencing it, only boastful displays and dirty jokes.
"This happen every time?" I asked and Tink looked up at me with those doe-eyes.
"You think you were something special?"
I shook my head and kept my rhythm. I was on the verge of finishing and she was arching her back, her breasts sitting atop the green Armani bodice like double airbags waiting for my post-coital collapse.
"It ever get annoying?" I asked, realizing if rumors were true she was responsible for nations-worth of fairies.
Her breath was hot and smelled of alcohol with a tinge of breath mint. "This is the happiest place on Earth," she said, tightening her legs against my waist, taking in every last moment.

This is in the new issue of Space Squid, and probably a pretty good argument for me to not be working in a children's bookstore.
If Disney sues me, please take up a collection for my defense fund.
You sir, are repugnant. Good job.
Thanks, Laura! When Squid accepted it the editor said they were trying really hard to cut back the raunchyness of their next issue, until they saw my story. That might be the greatest accomplishment of my writing life, haha.
but Tink said, "I think the lights are romantic." Oh man, "Tink" - killer
"like double airbags waiting for my post-coital collapse."
Ha, that is a HUGE compliment from the Space Squid editor, Ryan. I can see why they made that call. Kudos, I love this.
This is
Thanks, David, I appreciate you taking the time to read it!
Ryan,
Man, this is weirdo-excellent in the most awesome of ways.
I'll have to grab that issue of Space Squid.
Thanks, Jarrid!
if you send me a msg with your address i'd be happy to send you a copy.
"Once, when I fucked Tinkerbell . . ." -- great opener.
Thanks for reading, Cami, it is appreciated!
"Like all my friends, I had seen her sex tape on the internet."
Good lord, this comes at the perfect time and kills me.
And I agree, Tink was a grand touch.
Okay, and I'm going to have to admit. I might have gotten a bit excited during some sections.
Yep. Good job.
Thanks, Sheldon! I hope you didn't get too excited, especially if there are other people around... if you're alone... well...
how do i hop on the copy train? happy to reimburse, of course, as i'm that sort
just send me your address, my man. no worries, i'm happy to spend the cost of stamps :)
My favorite part:
"This happen every time?" I asked and Tink looked up at me with those doe-eyes.
"You think you were something special?"
Thanks, Dave!
This is so funny, but it works. It all makes sense, and I think that's what you want out of any piece of writing--that it doesn't ask you to believe it makes you.
I agree, completely. Thanks for reading, and for the kind words, Darryl!
thank god you didn't throw julia roberts' voice in this fairy tale fuckjob--can't see tink with the B-stung, B-list lips.
but this, this is something else entirely.
well done & perverse, nice combo
Thanks, Gary!
No Julia here... the inspiration was actually an old picture of Neil Young where he's wearing a shirt with Peter Pan drinking a beer and a naked Tinkerbell is next to him.
Tinkerbell is such an inspired choice for this -- and all the details are just so right. Darryl totally nailed what makes it work, and "believing" even fits into the Tinkerbell mythology.
Ryan, kudos for exploding the myth of Tinkerbell!
Erin and Richard, thanks so much for reading, and your kind words, they are much appreciated!
Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.
You are too kind, Roxane!
I liked this a lot.
Ah, romance ...
Opening line is perfection. Dirty and hilarious!!
Thanks Robert & Lauren, it is much appreciated!
Ryan, I'm fascinated to hear more about the Neil Young pic. He's one of my all time faves. Now instead of hearing "Southern Man", when I see him I'll be thinking of Tink.
david, i'll see if i can dig it up. i'm a huge neil fan too. i got the first volume of the archives for my birthday and have been geeking out for the months since!
That's awesome, Ryan. I'm the only guy I know who can listen to "Cinnamon Girl" during work-outs and get fired up!
What a great birthday gift.
dude i think i was the only high schooler in the late 90's who listened to Cinnamon Girl all the time, and wasn't even on drugs.... yet...
ha! in '91 or so, i was in our college gym, working out, when Cinnamon Girl came on. I was pumped! Then some of the football players said turn that country shit off and they put on some rap music. I had half a mind to say Neil Young was not a country singer (generally). But I went back to curling, like a good little boy.
i'd probably have started some shit and ended up tied in a knot around the spinning wheel of a stationary bike during a spin class.
ha! now that's an image. classic.
What a flight of fancy, congratulations! The ending's something.
Thanks Ethel!
highly enjoyable read--good stuff.
Thank you, Scott!
Fucking fairies = great story.
Thanks, Katrina!
There are hints of beauty (and also social/cultural relevance) in the raunch that keep this from being exploitative.
I really love this.
Thank you, Tim, your kind words are much appreciated!
This is a really great one. Enjoyed it very much!
Hooked:
Once, when I fucked Tinkerbell, thirty glowing lights sprang to life in the dark static air of the by-the-hour motel room. They were new fairies I'd brought to life with each thrust. "I feel like someone's watching," I said, unsure I could continue, but Tink said, "I think the lights are romantic." So, I put my hand back over her mouth and kept going.
Thanks, Timothy! Glad you enjoyed!
holy shit!!! too hilarious.. awesome story, just !!!!!!!!!!
thank you meg! you are too kind!
"I swear the glitter of her skin is natural." This is a phenomenal story. Amazing.
Thanks so much, Rebecca! I appreciate you taking the time to read it!!
'I'd heard the saying that every time a fairy got laid more were born'
This whole piece was great, and a lot of fun to read. I'm glad no fairies died in the writing of it.
Thanks, Roberta! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
