Context: Your New step-mom is very loving in caring, and you get along pretty well. There is one thing she never told you though, she's a Lamia. With you having ophidiophobia, your new step-mom worries that you might hate her.

[Scene opens up which you watching a movie with your step-mom]

***

"*Gasp* Oh, dear. I don't know how you convince me in watching these scary movies with you."

[She holds you tightly as you pause it asking if she's ok?]

"Yeah, I'm fine dear. Sometimes I wonder if the only reason you watch these scary movies with me is to see me in a frightened position."

[She leans into you]

"Although, if that was the case; Mommy just might get even with you~"

[You ask to not joke around]

"*Giggles* I'm serious, if you keep this up. Mommy just might...have to have...A tickle fight."

[She grabs you and starts tickling you as the two of you play around]

"*Chuckles* Looks like Mommy wins again."

[You catch you breath and say it wasn't fair]

"Hm? Not fair? Why what on earth do you mean? All's fair in love and war."

[You tell her that you don't like calling her mommy]

"Oh, could it be that you don't see me as your mommy? I am a Step-Mommy, but still your Mommy. Jokes aside, I apologize for overdoing the whole "Mommy" thing."

[She looks down somewhat saddened]

"I know I can never replace your real mommy. Nor do I want to."

[She looks back up to you]

"Just know if there is any issue you have any issues whatsoever, don't feel like you don't have to tell me."

[You ask her why she insist on going to the reptile exhibit tomorrow?]

"Hm? The reptile exhibit? Well, you see. Your dad and I have been talking, maybe I can help with your fear of snakes."

[You ask why should you overcome it]

"Well, you never know when you might be in a situation with one. I mean, what would you do if there was one right here on the floor."

[You don't want to talk about it.]

"Oh, come on. You know you can tell me anything right? I wouldn't rat you out on your dad. If there's something you want to tell me, you shouldn't be ashamed to do so."

[You ask if you could not go to the snake part of the exhibit.]

"Is it really that bad to look at the snakes?"

[You nod]

"Oh, honey~."

[She hugs you gently]

"There is nothing to be afraid of, I am here for you. You know that right?"

[You answer her earlier question that you might jump in your mother's arms if you saw a snake.]

"Oh, do you really hate snakes so much that you would jump into your own Step-Mommy's arms? I'm actually quite shocked."

[You look down saddened]

"Hey, it's ok. I tell you what, if your a brave boy for mommy; I'll give you a special treat~. What do you say?"

[You ask what does she have in mind?]

"Well-"

[SFX: alarm going off on phone]

"Oh, um...Honey, I got to go. I'll just be in my room for a bit, Just be a good boy for mommy and stay down here. Just in case your father comes home."

[You say ok]

"Thank you sweetie."

[She gently kisses you and runs upstairs]

[SFX: Nightmare on elm street theme]

[SFX: Loud thud]

[Realizing that it wasn't the movie your watching you run upstairs]

"Oh, son. Is that you? Don't worry Mommy's ok. You don't need to open the door."

[concerned for her safety you open the door]

"Honey, I said I'm fine, you don't need...to...open...the...door."

[You are looking at a Lamia, stunned by fear and wondering where you Mom is, you grab a baseball bat]

"Son, are you ok? Wait, what are you going to do with that baseball bat-"

[SFX: Baseball bat swinging]

"Woah, honey careful you almost hit me."

[You continue swinging and she continues dodging as you shout to give her back your mother.]

"*Inner monologue* Wait, he thinks I did something to her? I would be so touched if he wasen't try to give me a concussion."

[She tries to reason with you]

"Son...Please...Listen to Mommy....this isn't funny...you could really hurt Mommy..."

[Losing her patience she grabs the bat at your full swing of power]

"Enough!"

[Frightened by what you are about to do, you ask her what she did to your Step-Mom."

"Honey, it's me."

[She slitters closer to you and put her hand on your cheek]

"See, it's really me."

[You leg go of the bat and storm off before your Step-mom cuts you off]

[SFX: door slamming]

"Wait, I feel like there's something I need to explain to you."

[You look at her with hate and tears in your eyes saying "what more does she need to explain?"]

"Honey, please. I know this is a lot to ask from you. Just a few minutes. that's all I ask~."

[You sit down with your arms crossed on her bed as she sits next to you.]

"Thank you, so before I address the obvious elephant in the room; let me address some questions you had earlier."

[You ask what earlier questions?]

"Well, when your dad and I first went out dating, I told you the story of how he proposed to me on the second date? I told him no."

[She lifts a part of her tail up to the bed]

"You can probably already guess why?"

[You ask if this is the reason your dad insisted on getting over your fear of snakes]

"*Looking down* Yes. *looks back to you* I want you to know however, I strongly protested the entire idea. I insisted that this is something that needed to be done gently."

[Pause]

"Of course your father, being the stubborn man that he is was all like "Well, he can't be a real man unless he face his fears straight on. Har-har-har."

[The two of you chuckle briefly at her impression of your dad's laugh]

"I insisted however, we should of done something simple. Like you know, a garden snake."

[Your still shaking at the idea that the woman you called your step-mom is a Lamia.]

"I know honey. It's still a lot to take in, so is there anything you want to ask before I you know address this big issue?"

[You ask who else knew you were a Lamia]

"Who else knew I was a Lamia? Well, can I not count my friends and family for a moment? They knew since I was little and all."

[You oblige her with the request]

"Thank you sweetie~. So aside from them, Just your dad...and possibly your 1st mom."

[You raised an eyebrow]

"Well, remember when we first meet and your face was so bright red. *Chuckles* I think you must of thought I was Beautiful right~?"

[Having a bit of a Tsundere moment, you turn away blushing saying no]

"Honey, It's ok. I was kind of flattered by it. Anyways, after a few dates, *under her breath* and your dad proposing on each one *Back to normal* He insisted that I do some "Bonding" with you,"

[You remember him saying that]

"Do you remember what we did to bond on the first day?"

[You looking down, face red from embarrassment]

"*Chuckles* that's right, You beg me to take you to the Cemetery."

[You cover your face in shame]

"You remember how scared I was?"

[You nod]

"I remember how you used a guilt trip for me to go there. You distinctively said "You know what, fine. Your probably no different than any other girl my dad brings home. Trying to convince me that their going to be my "New Mommy". I was so hurt by this that I dove you there."

[You apologize for being a jerk back then]

"Oh no, sweetie. You were not a Jerk."

[You look at her with doubt]

"Okay, the approach was a little inappropriate, I'll grant you that. However, it wasen't being a jerk. Especially for the reason why?"

[Pause]

"You dragged me to the cemetery your mom was buried and introduced me to her. Although I felt it was a little creepy-"

[You say really and she immediately rebuttals]

"Yes, yes. I know, I know. "Coming from a Lamia." Anyways, I realized what you were doing there. You wanted your 1st mommy to meet whoever might be your next mommy. I honestly was touched, when you brought me there."

[You ask if she found it weird?]

"No sweetie. It wasn't weird. Anyways, when you went to get some water I leaned into the stone and confessed to her, that her husband tried proposing several times to a Lamia."

[You ask her how she disguised herself for so long?]

"Well, there was this drug I would take in order to give myself a more "Human" look. The first supplements worked for a few hours, witch was great. I got to spend time with my new buddy here~."

[She tries to get a hug, but is immediately pushed aside, sighing in disappointment she continues]

"So, when your dad insisted I move in; I realized that I was in hot water."

[You ask how?]

"Well, the drug only worked for a few hours. I asked for a stronger and longer lasting drug, to witch they gave me another drug. Only side effect was I needed an hour to be a Lamia in order to take the drug again...safely."

[You asked if she did this all for you]

"Of course sweetie~. I didn't want you to be afraid of me in the first day."

[You look down, feeling a little guilty that your Step-Mom has been doing all of this for you]

"Do you remember the day I figured out you were afraid of snakes?"

[You try not to remember it.]

"I know it was a frightening time for you *Under her breath* even for a garden snake *back to normal* but I tried to show you that they were harmless. Now if it was a coral snake, that I would understand."

[Pause]

"Remember that poem I taught you to tell the difference? "Red touch Yellow, kill a fellow. Red touch Black, Venom lack." or the more less known. "Black touches Red, friend of Jack. Yellow touches red, you soon be dead."

[You mention the easier statement]

"I know, I know. You can just look at the nose. If the nose is black, it's a coral snake."

[You asked if she's was bothered by your fear of snakes or offended starting to cry.]

"Oh, no dear. I wasn't offended or bothered by you being afraid of snakes. If anything, it shows that years of evolution are still in us to fear stuff that might harm us or worse."

[She wipes your tears and gently rubs your head]

"I was more worried that you wouldn't accept me."

[You see her eyes water up]

"The thought of you not accepting me as your mom, really frightened me. I though...I though..."

[She gently starts to cry as you wipe her tears away]

"Oh, thank you sweetie. I do appreciate your kindness to me."

[You ask if she is able to help you with your fear of snakes]

"Hm? Me, help you with your fear. How?"

[You ask if you could pet her tail]

"P-pet my tail? *Blushing a little* I...um, what I mean to say is...if you think that will help. I guess I see no harm."

[You start to pet her tail as she let's out a little yelp and ask her if she's ok?]

"Oh, I...I'm fine dear, it's just your hands are kind of cold. Mind blowing on them first?"

[You oblige her and blow on your hands]

"Thank you dear."

[SFX: Coils of snake being rubbed]

"*Inner monologue* Will this really help with his fear of snakes. I hope he doesn't get too weirded out by this."

[She clears her throat]

"So, um, how does it feel?"

[You say nice, surprisingly not slimy]

"*Chuckles* Snakes don't have slime, there usually kind of...soft when you hold them. Although if you do hold one, make sure your hand's are not cold sweetie."

[You appreciate your step mom doing this and thank her]

"Huh, thanks. Thanks for what sweetie?"

[You say for not judging your fears]

"Oh, honey. I would never do something like that. Just know, if you want me to go back the way I was I have no problem with that. You want to know why?"

[You ask why?]

"Because as much as I love your dad. I love you just as much~"

[She kisses you on the cheek which makes you turn bright red.]

"*Chuckles* I knew when I would marry your dad, I was getting you as well."

[you say obviously]

"Well...not so obvious. Some woman see a single father with a son as a red flag. More baggage and all that. Not me though, the moment I met you after your dad would praise you so much. I loved you, as if you were my own son~."

[She starts showering you with kisses]

"Just know I would never try to take you out of your comfort zone. Now that were all done here, I'll take the medication now."

[You hold her hand, preventing her from taking it]

"Hm? What's wrong sweetie~?"

[you ask if it's ok for her to be like this for a while]

"Oh, hun. You know I wouldn't do anything that would make you uncomfterble. Are you sure~?"

[You nod, slightly nervously]

"All right then."

[She put the medication in her pocket]

"If it becomes too hard for you, I'll go back to your two-legged step-mommy. Okay?"

[You nod]

"Good, that's Mommy's little brave boy~."

[She showers you with kisses and giggles as it fades to black]

[The end]

Note: Probably not the first one to come up with this idea, but I thought of it when my friends often talked about being afraid of snakes. I figure, how would a situation like this play out. The best course of action was accepting, not being demanding of each other. Hope you enjoyed reading this and have a nice day.
