Sue or Susie, as she now thought of herself, scampered after the other lizards towards the food and flies. There were some pieces of mango she headed for, there were some flies already feeding as she arrived. Her friends swallowed some and she wasn’t going to be left out; and she stretched out her now lizard-like tongue to grab one and swallow it down. She thought, I could do with going back for more juices to help it go down. Better have some mango, that’s quite juicy. After feeding they all went back to their favourite place where Susie had first found them and had her first sexual encounter.
They lay there under the warm lamps soaking up the warmth. Some time passed. Basking. Copulating. Feeding. Not necessarily in that order, but it was all very enjoyable. She found herself very often indulging in the copulating and the feeding, if you count licking each other out, with her original partner, or with any of them for that matter, because it very often turned into a group get together.
They both seemed to have put on quite a bit of weight. Her partner beckoned for her to follow; to a nice quiet warm area of sand, where she started to dig a hole for her eggs, Susie did likewise, it felt like second nature. There, side-by-side they let nature take its course. After a while they had both produced five eggs, they stepped carefully aside and proceeded to cover them with a layer of sand.
