Age Twenty-five

Daphne stood at the door, smiling while I buttoned my pants in preparation for seeing her to her car. Moving to her side, I tucked a strand of her hair back where it belonged, and she caught my hand and kissed it. “Are we good?”

I liked that she asked, and I liked her tone in doing so. It was as if she truly cared. “Absolutely. The whole taking time thing is clearly overrated.”

Her smile grew. “So how long will you be here?”

“Another couple of weeks. Things tend to get slow around Christmas. I could get a call, though. If I do, I’ll let you know.” She’d already redone her makeup, which meant more kissing was out of the question. I ran my hands up her arms before helping her with her coat. “Otherwise, since you’ll be the one with scheduling issues, I’ll wait till I hear from you. All right?” I might have known what friends with benefits meant, but that didn’t mean I knew the proper conventions.

She turned and ran a finger down my cheek. “Thank you for this. My life isn’t the same without you in it.”

The old Max would have said something stupid about her always being in my heart or us finding a way to be together. Instead, I nodded. “Can I see Lena soon?”

“Of course. Let me call you when I’ve had a chance to check our calendar.”

“I’d like it if you’d call me anyway. Just to let me know you made it home okay.”

She laughed. “Is that gentlemanly, or are you mothering me?”

“You know the answer to that without even thinking.” We smiled at each other, and I walked her to her car.

Afterward, I lay on my back, staring at the ceiling, trying to find exactly how to think about all this. The sex had been better than ever. Replaying the evening, I couldn’t get over the way Daphne had started everything off. There had been a couple of occasions in our inglorious past that I’d tried kissing her first, always with disastrous results. There was no telling what had changed her mind or how she’d come to the idea of including kissing in our repertoire, but whatever it was, I’d certainly enjoyed it.

Everything had happened quickly after that first kiss, and I hadn’t considered getting the strap-on. I hadn’t used it since we’d been together anyway. After our terrible parting, I’d gotten a weird attitude about it, wanting to ensure that the women I slept with truly wanted me and not just some device. I’d mainly use my hand and was fine with the same in return. Only on those rare occasions when a woman had gotten me really worked up did I go down on her. There was something uncomfortably intimate about oral sex, and it wasn’t an intimacy I’d desired. Until now.

Tonight, Daphne had come quickly around my fingers, so I’d kept them inside her and eased myself lower, taking her in my mouth to bring her off a second time.
