When Jase Surprises Me Again

“So why did you two wait seven years to get engaged?” Mrs. Roberts asks from the end of the table.

It’s March, the day after our engagement party, and along with Mom, Mia and her sisters, Zoe and Dani, and Mrs. Roberts, I’m relaxing in Mia’s backyard, while our men—Jase, Matt, Noah, Dani’s husband, Zach, Dad, Malcolm, Justice, Zoe’s two kids, and Mia’s three daughters—have all gone to Lincoln Park Zoo.

“It’s because he wants to take the road never traveled, Mom,” Mia says, giggling when I send a death glare her way.

That’s breaking a sacred oath we made when we were eighteen. One must never share my vow to save my anal virginity for my husband. It’s not like I was ever going to stay an actual virgin, but hoping I would get married eventually, I decided that saving my ass for my one and only would be just as important. Besides, my husband would most likely not be a dirt track rookie, so I’d be in safe—knowledgeable—hands when the time was right. Thankfully, Jase has assured me he knows exactly what to do because he’s been studying.

“What was that, Mia? I couldn’t hear you,” her mom asks.

My mother—bless her heart—gawks at me like I’ve grown another head. “Oh, petal. Sometimes you bring a tear to my eye. You’ve missed out on years of good sex.”

“Oh my,” Mrs. Roberts says, her cheeks turning pink. She lifts her glass and takes a large gulp from her wine. “I think I need another drink for this conversation.” She gets up and disappears inside Mia’s back door.

“Mom, can we tone down the sex talk around the girls’ mom? She’s not as—”

“Outgoing?” Dani offers.

“Open-minded?” Zoe adds.

“Awesome,” Mia says, completing the triad’s replies.

Mom meets my eyes, hers crinkling at the sides before she shoots me a wink. “Petal, everyone has sex. Even moms.”

“Especially moms,” Mia says, leaning forward to offer my mother a high-five. Those two and alcohol are a bad combination.

“For the record, I have not missed out on any good sex,” I reply, sounding a little bit too defensive. “Jase is a magnificent and very giving lover.”

“And then some, apparently,” Zoe adds with a snort.

Okay, yes, I may talk about his exploits a lot, but I’m proud of how good he is with everything God gave him. And guys like to be talked up, right?

He’s never complained about anything, so that must mean I’m not lacking in the good sex department either. No wonder he wants to nail me down. That, and because he wants my brown wings.

Punch the chocolate starfish.

Bite the pillow.

Dance the chocolate cha-cha.

Chocolate dip the dic—

“Petal, it’s very enjoyable. In fact, with Justice, it’s almost an—”

“Nope. Nuh-uh. That’s where I draw the line, Mom. I do not want to hear about your sex life with Justice or my father. I’ve somehow managed to avoid therapy from my upbringing so far, but that might hurl me right over the edge into Crazy Town.”

Mom smiles. Zoe chortles, hiding it behind her wine glass.
