I'm not sure when I came to the realization, but it was an important moment. I was a very sexual person. Sex was always going to be a very important thing in my life. I knew girls that had sex only because it was expected of them and I knew girls that could take it or leave it, but me? I thought about it all the time. Constantly. I was always looking at guys like most guys looked at girls: meaning seeing them as prospective sexual partners and wondering what they'd be like.
While I wasn't a total slut, I loved getting having sex, I loved getting guys off and I love the feeling of becoming aroused. When I wasn't doing those things, I was thinking about it- or masturbating in secret thinking about it. Luckily I was, with no false modesty, an attractive young lady. Though I did wish my boobs were bigger. I was conscientious and a hard worker. I heard myself referred to as "talented and perky". I was never wild about that description, but whatever.
I was discrete- I didn't make it known that I loved sex as much as I did. I was particular- I didn't sleep with everyone, but I like to think the guys that I did consent to go to bed with had a wonderful time. Outwardly I was a normal girl. I was a good girl and I looked the part. As far as anyone knew I was a good girl going to University and learning about the theater and other things I love. And yes, I love sex. It's a wonderful thing finding people along the way that feel the same way. And sometimes we find them in the most remarkable places.
I went home every Christmas. In between I usually called home about three of four times a month. Just letting them know I was still alive and doing well. Or now and then Mom would leave a message on my machine. I'd tell her what plays I had been cast in- how classes were going and how my job was. Mom would talk about relatives I barely knew. She'd talk about things at the church and how Dad's job was going and how Eden was still doing so well in school. All that stuff- all the same.
I always looked forward to going home- and being spoiled, but I hadn't been home since Spring Break- almost 6 months ago and I had no idea that anything was different. I always laughed at Mom and Dad keeping my room for me- it was just the way I had left it. Usually when a kid goes off to college the bedroom gets turned into a sewing room or a den or something. Everything was always the same. Eden was buried in her books, Dad was working hard and Mom was trying hard to find subtle ways of asking if I was seeing anyone serious. I told her I dated a bit, but was too busy with classes, rehearsals and working part time to worry about things like that. I guessed that she was concerned for my safety and well-being. Or so I thought.
It was late Friday afternoon of Homecoming Weekend when Eden buzzed to get into the dorm. I had just got back from a class and I ran down to meet her. We hugged in the bustling lobby and I grabbed her suitcase and after a quick bite in the cafeteria, we headed up to my room. Thankfully the roomie was away for the weekend so we had the place to ourselves.
Eden had called and asked if she could come up and see me just a few days after I had been telling Sean, in a sex-mad haze, what I wanted to happen. It had just been a momentary fantasy, but the timing of her call was way too spooky, a bit more than coincidence. It was the first time she had asked to come up to see me alone and I could tell she was amazed by what she saw as we ate in the noisy hall and made our way up to my room.
She had been here for an interview for the scholarship she wanted and she and Mom and I had gone out for a supper before they went back home. She hadn't seemed interested in seeing the co-ed dorm until now. All the way up in the elevator and down the hall Eden was quiet- just an occasional "Wow..." or "Holy shit..." muttered under her breath.
There were guys and girls of all sizes and descriptions, talking and flirting in the hall, stepping out of their rooms in states of undress to call out to friends- making plans for the weekend and exchanging thoughts on what homecoming parties would be the best.
I introduced Eden briefly to a couple of floor mates as we passed- one was a guy who tossed out a wolf whistle as we parted. When we got to my room and closed the door, Eden leaned against it and held a hand to her chest. "Was that whistle for you, Em...? Or...?" She was blushing like crazy. "He was... gorgeous..."
I laughed as I slung her suitcase onto the other bed and sat on mine. I had two bottles of white wine chilling in the mini fridge under the desk and pulled one out. "He's ok, I guess. I don't go for the obvious stud type. He was probably whistling at you... and... those things."
She blushed deeper and looked down at her breasts. "Thanks for the shirt, Em, and thanks for the card- and the book."
"Well, I'm sorry I wasn't there for your big one-eight, but we were in rehearsals."
She moved her hands over the t-shirt gift. "Its lovely... I guess I kinda fill it out a bit, huh?"
"No problem, lil sis... It looks good on you. It's your color. And yeah, you do fill it out." I paused with a wine bottle in my hand. "I'm envious."
She laughed, peeling off her fall jacket and tossed it onto the bed. "Bullshit. You're the pretty one. The fun one, the popular one. The one with boyfriends. I'm the geek. Maybe I just got... hooters as a consolation prize." She shrugged. "I'm just starting to not be embarrassed about them."
"It's about time. You're looking good, E. You seem... more relaxed." It dawned on me- my little sister had a look about her- a bit more worldly. "Have you got a boyfriend, now?" She had always worn bulky, knit sweaters and shapeless turtlenecks. I used to call her Velma, from Scooby-doo. "You have new glasses, too."
She smiled shyly. "Not a boyfriend per se... but I have a few stories. I guess I'm not as innocent as I thought I was. I hope you have some too, you little slut. Are you going to open that wine or are we just going to look at it?"
We were sitting on the floor, leaning back against the beds with our feet almost touching. I leaned forward to tip a bit more wine into her coffee cup. It was a common thing to have a little wine with dinner at our house. Sometimes more than a little. I asked how Mom and Dad were doing and she smirked and rolled her eyes and said, "Ellen and Dave are doing fine- but that's a story for later." I could tell she wanted to tell me about something, but I had to be patient. Presently she began.
