I had to write a story for my Human Sexuality class that described the journey of the sperm and egg, all the way to fertilization. The instructor said it should be a story, be creative, and give them personalities. I was having so much fun writing the story that I forgot to include the opening paragraph to let the reader know what to expect, so I got a few points off. Darn.
This is the story of what was happening inside Bella and David, on a starry night in December. They had been seeing each other for quite a while, and this was the night they finally got to know each other on an entirely different level...
Ova-Marie lived in the Bella Universe, where she was born and raised with almost 300,000 sisters. They all got along quite well and had the same vision of what they wanted to do with their lives. They all wanted to travel the fallopian highway to meet their prince charming, so that they could transform into what Madame Uterus called a butterfly of the other world. None of the Ova sisters really knew what that meant but were quite sure it was something wonderful. Ova-Marie was waiting for the signal to come so she could be released from her follicle and make her way through the fallopian tube to meet her fate. She had been waiting for so many years and was growing weary of seeing the same follicle walls all the time.
Suddenly she heard the signal float through the walls of her follicle, beckoning her to get ready for the journey. She could feel herself changing and seemed to be growing bigger and lovelier with each passing minute. This was so exciting. This was her time and she wanted to do her best so that she could finally see what becoming a butterfly felt like and was a bit curious to see how different she would look. No need for a map or navigational system because all of the Ova’s were well schooled in the art of ‘running the tube’, as it was called.
The door opened and Ova-Marie stepped forward, throwing caution to the wind. Waving arms welcomed her into the mouth of the fallopian highway, and after a last check to see that she was as beautiful as she could be, off she dashed. It was peaceful and at the same time exhilarating in the tube. The walls seemed to secrete a lovely scent that made her feel even more welcome, as if there would be a big plate of cookies just around the next bend. As she rounded the bend, there was the plate of cookies along with a note that read, “Have some cookies. Relax and take a load off. Prince Charming might be here any time.” So she reached for a cookie and ate it in anticipation of what was to come. Instinctively she knew the vagina of Bella Valley was at the other end welcoming the army that carried her prince charming to her. She could almost feel it.
Spencer Sperm was born in the universe of David and was feeling strong today. He had moved from the testis house into the epididymis where the big boys lived. Here they ate a better diet and worked out in the epi-gym every chance they got. Spencer was growing in size and had practiced his swimming almost every other minute in readiness for the big race. His tail looked good today. As he looked around at the other swimmers, he could see that this would not be easy. He would need to fight his way to the front of the line to get to the prize. Spencer was not sure exactly what the prize was, but they had all been told to just get there first and go through the big round wall to get their reward.
Spencer’s daydream was suddenly interrupted by a shudder, and all activity in the house stopped. Everyone knew what it meant. The big race was about to begin. The large group eagerly surged toward the massive double doors. A pulsing now replaced the shuddering from before, and the doors flew open to the sound of what sounded like bugles as the sperm raced out of epididymis house into the Vas deferens expressway. Spencer swam as fast as he could, knowing that the David Universe was engaging in some activity with another universe. He had been aware of this before, but it seemed different from his days in the testis house. This was electrifying.
As Spencer and Ova-Marie were moving into their positions for the big meeting inside the Bella Universe, David and Bella were doing their part on the outside. They had become closer over time and were now engaging in passionate play. David’s kisses and embraces made Bella feel warm, and she hoped he would continue. David was quite sure he was not going to stop anytime soon unless Bella wanted to stop. Warm juices and gushing hormones swept through both their bodies as they were ready to engage in sensual pleasure. David felt ready to perform, and Bella was now sensually charged. As David and Bella merged and became one on the same playing field, little tiny cheers filled every cell deep inside the universe of David. The race was on.
Spencer could feel himself being propelled ahead so that he was gaining momentum and reaching the front of the pack. He could see some sperm falling behind, and others were being killed off by the acid gang which lurked inside Bella’s uterus. This was no picnic! Spencer had to be on his guard at all times. As Spencer’s tail waved forcefully behind him, he found the entrance to the fallopian highway and something told him this was where he should go. He was sure he smelled a faint scent from that direction so he followed it, not knowing why.
As Ova-Marie waited patiently, she thought she heard a commotion from somewhere in the tube ahead of her. Was it Prince Charming? She strained to see, but it was so dark that she was almost blind. Suddenly, a swarm of sperm broke out of the darkness and swam straight for her. Her first impression was that they were much too small to be princes. They were upon her before she could finish her thought. Ova-Marie could feel them trying to penetrate her skin and after a little bit, it seemed one had done just that. What a strong sperm he was. From somewhere inside her she could hear a distinct voice say, “Hi, my name is Spencer!” So this was Prince Charming. It was well worth the wait.
Fertilization had just taken place, but outside, in Bella’s Universe, nothing was known about it. Ova-Marie and Spencer had joined as the universes had planned. Cells were multiplying. Hormones were secreting. Blood was flowing. Bella would discover in a few weeks that Ova-Marie and Spencer had become one and had created something completely new.
What a nice, starry night.
