โHow did it happen with you?โ
Amy looked at the young man in her lap and slowly closed her eyes, her fingers drifting through his hair.
โI was eighteen,โ she leaned her head back on the wall and sat in silence, letting her mind drift aimlessly in thought.
****************************************
Was I eighteen?
I donโt remember really. I remember it was the night before my birthday and they had a party for me. Beth, she kept handing me glasses of champagne and telling me, โMom said it was okay,โ and โDonโt worry, itโs your birthday.โ
The champagne really hit me and I remember her pushing me towards the stairs, telling me to go to bed.
โItโs after midnight,โ she held me up by my elbow, โeveryone is going to go home.โ
Why was she screaming?
I made it up the stairs. I remember that much. Somehow I had gotten undressed and into my bed, I donโt remember how exactly.
Then mommy came in and turned out the light and wished me happy birthday. She told me sheโd have a special surprise for me when I woke up.
I fell asleep.
It was two-thirty and Beth came into my room. I remember that, because I looked at the clock and started to complain. She was lying in the bed next to me before I even woke up, under my covers.
โAre you okay?โ she asked me, her hand gently soothing my face, โI feel somehow responsible.โ
I remember telling her it was okay, and that I was feeling better.
Her hand was so soft against my cheek, I still think back to how it felt. She stayed with me for a few more minutes like that, slowly pulling my head to her chest, until it was on top of her arm.
I remember cuddling against her, against her breast. My head gently lodged over her arm. She kept running her fingers through my hair. I felt her other hand start to soothe my hip before sliding up and down my side.
She pulled me in closer, her hand rising higher and higher until I felt her slowly circling my breast.
I really didnโt realize what was happening, still in a daze from being woken up and not quite sober from the champagne earlier. I just stayed there and relaxed, her touch was so soothing, everything felt so good.
โIs this okay,โ she whispered softly towards my ear.
I remember nodding yes almost immediately. Not really taking time to think about what was happening.
She slid down into the bed a little more until we were face to face. She looked into my face for a little while, her hand still soothing my bare hips and side.
โYou are so sweet,โ she whispered before gently placing her lips against mine.
I kissed back almost instinctively. Her mouth was so wet and soft. I felt her tugging at her night shirt as our tongues slid together in each otherโs mouth.
I felt my body twitch with excitement when she pulled the shirt over her head and her soft breasts pressed against my bare chest. I reached my arm around her and caressed the small of her back, pulling her closer to me.
