Garden of Eden: the Biblical-Queer Rom-Com Dramedy

Turns out creating everyone and everything that does and doesn't exist was really hard.

God had infinite power and infinite knowledge and infinity infinity and she's also the greatest and stuff, but that didn't make her perfect.

She made planets and stars, photons and neutrons and electrons and Tron: The Movie (that one she'll workshop a few thousand years before she releases it). She's made dirt, plants that eat that dirt, animals to eat the plants, and she made more animals to eat those animals because she ran out of new parts of what she calls "life".

After six straight days of making stuff, she decided to take the day off. With nothing to do on that last day, she did what anyone else would with time alone: she masturbated. Furiously.

I new idea came to her during pearl-polishing session -- as a lot of her good ideas happened -- and decided to implement it the following day.

She called it "people".

It was a sort of self-portrait. An animal she had made to be like her in a lot of ways. All it really took was taking chimpanzee (or was it a bonobos?) and tweaking it's DNA by a measley 1%. She decided to take a few of her aspects -- like godhood, or the ability to discern good from evil -- and put them off to the side, deciding to hold off on adding that feature until she was certain that this "people" idea worked. She made them into trees, because why not, and put them off on the far corners of her personal garden she called Eden.

The first one she called "Ada". She was fully-grown, had olive skin and long, wavy dark hair.

Just to keep Ada from being lonely, she decided to make another one. The second one she called "Lilith". She was like Ada in some ways, though her skin was darker with long, black hair.

Lilith was an insatiable one. She took to her lover almost immediately, tackling Ada to the ground and loved her like the somewhat intelligent animals that they were. God was ashamed to admit that she liked to watch as they went at it.

But Lilith wasn't the type who would commit completely to their relationship. Lilith would sneak off and lay with others. Eden was home to various other creatures God had made. Experimental things that modern man would find horrifying or impossible, and Lilith would do things with them that made God blush with shame (and strangely horny fascination).

Ada felt devastated when she realized what was happening. She would argue with Lilith over her infidelity. They would argue until their throats were sore and go to bed angry. Sometimes Lilith would be off somewhere as Ada cried herself to sleep in their bed of leaves.

God saw Ada's suffering and felt it was her responsibility to do something about it.

As Ada cried herself to sleep one night, God reached her ephemeral hand and took a tiny piece of Ada. A piece she wouldn't miss, really. Like clay, she molded that piece into something new.

Well, newish.

When Ada woke up the next morning, she felt arms around her as someone was spooning her, their breasts mashing against her shoulder-blades.A part of her thought it felt nice. It was nice to be touched. Lilith didn't want to touch her anymore, and at this point Ada didn't want her too. It was a confusing mix of emotions, really.

Her hand touched the other hand, and she immediately realized something was wrong. For one, the other hand was smaller than Lilith's. The nails were trimmed down, and the skin color was a shade lighter.

Ada sat up and looked down at the other person.

The other girl sleepily rolled onto her back, giving Ada a better look at her.

It was as though Ada was looking at her own reflection, albeit an altered one. Her breasts were slightly smaller, her hair as short compared to her own long locks and her face was rounder.

"Who are you?"

Ada put a hand on her shoulder and shook it.

The other girl didn't open her eyes, though she rubbed at them as she tried to sit up.

"G'd morning," she said sleepily.

"Um... good morning?"

The other girl yawn.

"Uh, not to be rude or whatever, but who are you? Where did you come from?"

She opened her eyes and Ada was shocked that they were a bright green instead of her own dark brown.

"Um, I think I'm Eve."

"Eve?"

"Yeah. First I wasn't, then I was. I just know I'm Eve."

This was a familiar story for Ada.

From dust, God's hands created Ada and gave her life before doing the same with Lilith. They were named and left to "be fruitful" (whatever that was supposed to mean).

"I think I'm also supposed to do this," said Eve.

Then she grabbed Ada's breasts with both hands.

Her touch was soft and gentle and Ada's whole body responded in kind, feeling the pink folds in between her legs turn damp.

"W-Why are you--"

Eve took one of her erect nipples in her mouth and sucked lightly on it and Ada found herself leaning back into the bed as the other girl stimulated her.

"I named her Eve," said a Heavenly voice in her head. "I have made her from your flesh. She will be your new companion. Love her as she loves you."

One of Eve's hand let go of her breast as it reached down and began to rub at the tuft of hair in her pelvic-region, touching the cherry-nub that started to swell there.

Eve was so much more gentler than Lilith.

Shit, Ada though. What am I going to do about Lilith?
