Mouse Trap by marmot In which a man stops at a tavern and is turned into a mouse. ************ Mouse Trap I came up to Martha's Tavern out of the cold, snowy evening. The wind off Lake Superior was blowing a wet, miserable gale, and I almost didn't see the lights of the tavern as I stumped by. I had heard from some salts that it was a good, that is, cheap, place to get a hot meal and a warm bed. And at the moment, I needed both. I was only in town for the day, but now I was stuck until the storm blew over. I had just radioed my relief man that he'd be stuck on the rock until the gale blew out. In a couple of days, I would be back at the lighthouse, my only company the cold, great lake. But for now, I had to settle for human company and a meal I didn't have to cook for myself. 'Poor me,' I chuckled as I went inside. I closed the heavy wooden door against the wind and looked around. There were about a half dozen tables, most full of people sharing the warmth of good food and good conversation. I went to the bar and asked for a cold lager and a hot sandwich. Then I collapsed in a chair at the empty table in a corner. A lady came over with my supper, set it down on the table and stood over me. She was tall and fat, her large, sandalled feet were small compared to her thick legs. She wore an apron over her skirt. Her puffy white blouse was swelled by large breasts and framed by long blonde hair. Her pretty face bore a warm, friendly smile. And big, beautiful, bright blue eyes. "Hello, slave. I'm Martha LaFleure. Welcome to my tavern." "My name is Pete Katerscziwicz, everyone calls me 'Cat.'" "Are you married, slave?" I blushed at her forwardness, and wondered shy she kept calling me that. "No, I'm not married. I work on a lighthouse, and I wouldn't sentence any lady to such a lonely life. And I'm not your slave," I smiled. "But you can join me for supper if you want." She smiled indulgently, "Yes, I'll join you, for supper and more. But you are my slave. And you're so cute! I like you, but you're too small and timid to be a cat. I think I shall call you mouse." "It pays to be small enough to reach into the lighthouse equipment, but I'm not a timid mouse, Martha." 'Supper and more' caught my attention. "And I think you're cute too," I added. She sat down and looked deep into my eyes. Out of my peripheral vision, I noticed how her big breasts swayed forward as she leaned across the table toward me, but those eyes were so ... beautiful. I couldn't look away from them. 'She is as weird, as she is friendly,' I mused as I sipped my lager and stared into her expressive eyes. 'And she really seems to like me, even if she doesn't like my name.' "Relax, mouse. you can relax when I'm around, my slave." She took my hands in hers. I felt odd, holding hands with someone I didn't even know. She was still talking, but i was just feeling the warmth of her company. I looked at our hands, hers big and warm, plump yet still dainty, holding my small ones, still cold and pale from the snowy night outside. Martha interrupted my reverie. "Look at me, my slave. You're so timid." "I'm not your slave, Martha," I insisted. But my eyes met hers, were captured by them. I felt swallowed up in her gaze. For some reason, I did feel timid, just like a little mouse. 'I really shouldn't contradict her,' I thought. 'But she is wrong, isn't she?' She was saying, "Relax, mouse. You're so timid, but you can relax when I am here. I make you feel safe, because I love you." "Wake up, mouse." i hadn't been paying attention. i blinked several times, trying to remember what we had been talking about. "Do you want me to help you prove you are my slave now, mouse?" i was shocked at the idea, "You can't prove i'm Your slave because it's not true, Mistress." i feel myself blush. "er, i mean, Mistress." She looked deeper into my eyes. "Relax, mouse." i was glad to relax. It did feel good to, and it was ok to relax around Martha. i felt safe because my Mistress Martha loved me. "Wake up, mouse." i blinked again. What was She saying? i was starting to feel timid again. i hoped She wasn't angry with me. But She looked so patient and loving, i was reassured that everything was ok. "How do you feel, my slave?" "i feel fine, Mistr-- um, i'm fine Mistress." "Now, I will be happy to help you prove to yourself that you are my slave, mouse." "Mistress, i'm not Your slave, i'm not! i am so. i don't belong to You, i belong to me!" i was really starting to become emotional about this, but it was such nonsense. i wasn't Her slave because She couldn't make me do anything. Mistress Martha stood and swept back Her long, blonde hair. "There, there, little mouse." She came around to me, dried the tears from my eyes and hugged me to Her plump, soft breasts. "Why are you crying - is my mousie frightened?" I nodded and buried my face into Her warm bosom. "What's happening to me?" "Don't worry, my precious slave. Martha's here, and everything will be ok. My timid little mouse, you can trust Me, can't you?" i nodded again, feeling very warm and cozy. We stayed like that for a while, and i was starting to feel sleepy. Mistress Martha finally spoke. "Now is there anything you would like Me to do to help you know you are My slave?" i was thoughtful. "Well Mistress," i said softly. "i wouldn't be Your slave unless You were able to make me do things?" Mistress Martha looked pleased, like i had guessed right. She let go of me and put her hands on her broad hips. "Ok, mouse. Stick out your tongue and touch your forehead." i did so, giggling at her joke, then i sobered. "Please forgive me, Mistress." Why did i keep doing that? "i mean Mistress. If You make me do something i wouldn't normally do, then i'd be Your slave." Mistress Martha's face lit up. "I get it! If I made you do something unusual. Something embarrassing." "That's right!" Mistress Martha was so perceptive! "Something only a slave would do." "That's it exactly, Mistress!" i was excited. "What should we choose? There are lots of embarrassing things that would make you feel silly." She reached down and again took my hands in her own. "But you're not silly, you're my slave." i looked up into Mistress Martha's big, expressive eyes. "i have an idea." i stopped before i could call Her "Mistress" by mistake again. "i think i have an idea. M-mistress!" There. "Yes, mouse?" She looked so proud of me, even though i hadn't said my idea yet. "If it's something to do with You, then it would show that i'm not only a slave, but *Your* slave!" "I think I understand. What a bright little slave you are!" i blushed and smiled broadly at her compliment. "Now what could I make you do that involves Me and embarrasses you enough to show that you could only be My little slave boy?" "Make me kiss Your feet?" "Maybe." "Or kiss Your ... um." It was too embarrassing to say. i blushed again at the thought. "Yes...?" "Or maybe kiss Your ass, Mistress?" "Maybe." Our eyes locked on each other's. That was it! Mistress Martha said gently, "on your knees, mouse." i meekly responded to Her command, feeling suddenly very shy. Mistress Martha stood with Her back to me, and lifted the back of Her skirt. She wasn't wearing any panties, and She Her large, round backside was bared. Holding up the back of Her skirt, She rested Her hands on Her waist. Over her shoulder she called, "Now, slave, start kissing my ass." 'No!' i thought. It was my last bit of rebellion, but almost immediately, i crawled to Mistress Martha on my knees and knelt behind Her thick legs. I put my trembling little hands on Her powerful hips and kissed Her ass. The cheeks of Her ass were soft as satin, and i kissed and kissed. Some of other people in the tavern had been watching this little drama, and came and congratulated Mistress Martha on Her catch. Her friends talked with her, but i didn't hear them. i was too busy kissing my Mistress's ass. Finally, She said, "stop now, my slave." i compliantly stopped kissing Her ass, and noticed the barmaid standing beside us. i blushed crimson as she introduced us. "Mouse, this is Gertrude, My sister. She lives with Me." "Hullo, mousie!"I turned a deeper shade of red under her young sister's knowing smile. "Um, hi Gertrude." I answered, shyly. i knelt still as my Mistress squatted down in front of me. "And what are you, little mouse?" "i'm Your slave." i answered meekly. It felt good finally to admit that. "Can you close for me, Gertie?" Mistress asked her sister. "I'm going to take my slave upstairs and get better acquainted." "Sure thing, sis." Gertrude tousled my sandy hair. "Be a good slave for your mistress, mousie." "Yes, ma'am." i replied automatically. "You're a good kisser, slave. That pleases Me." i was overjoyed at her compliment as She stood and helped me to my feet. "Now I'm going to take you to bed and show you other ways to please Me." After a second's hesitation, i stood on tiptoe and kissed Her cheek. "Thank you, Mistress." i said. As Mistress Martha took my hand and led me upstairs to Her bedroom, i noticed that i wasn't timid any more.
