“Fuck, dude. I’m so nervous, I’m shaking. But I’m more excited than anything. I mean, I’ve never done anything like this before,” I said to Anthony.

“Of course you haven’t,” Anthony responded, attempting to be smug about it in his trousers with black socks covering his feet that were resting on the brown hotel rug. He took a sip of whiskey. He was sitting in the brown armchair by the grand window overlooking the city.

“And you have?” I asked, throwing back my whiskey.

He was silent for a while. Well, of course he had. He was Anthony. Mr. Loverboy, spreading his seed far and wide. He turned to look at me, taking another gulp of his whiskey.

“No,” he said.

I let out a shocked breath. “You’re joking!” I said. I hadn’t expected that answer. Either way, I was relieved that I wasn’t the only one that felt like I was out of my league here. Although I was kind of hoping he’d give me some pointers.

“Well, I’ve obviously penetrated both holes, just not while someone else was already occupying one of them,” he said.

I started laughing. “Yeah, same here, man.”

“You’ve done anal?” he asked, looking at me like I came from Mars or something.

“Yeah,” I said, to the point, looking at him like he came from a whole other galaxy.

“With who?!” he said.

“Dude, with my ex. What’s so shocking about that?” I responded in defense.

He let out a breath, tilting his glass to his lips with a chuckle. “Whew, she never struck me as that type of girl.”

“Yeah, well, I’m glad she never struck you as any type of girl or I would’ve been in Chris’ shoes. Wait, you didn’t hook up with her after we broke up, did you?” I asked, spinning to look at him.

“Would you care?” he responded.

“Yeah, even though I have no interest in revisiting that relationship again, I’d care if my friend thought that every girl in his friends’ lives were his to pursue as well,” I said, scrutinizing him.

“Yeah, relax. I didn’t go there. Chris’s ex was a one off. But is that how you feel now? Technically, you were with Tiffany first,” Anthony said, looking ahead of him, not making eye contact.

I was able to answer without thinking about it. “This is different,” I said.

“Why? Because it’s just sex and you don’t care about her that much?” he asked.

“It’s not just sex,” I said. Something in my voice must have caused him to look up at me, because there was passion in my words.

“It’s because I care about her. I cared about my ex too, but it was a different dynamic. When Tiffany gave herself to me, we’d only just met that night. I wasn’t delusional enough to think that sleeping with her and being the one to take her virginity would make her mine. I knew what it was, and she seemed to know what it was, but I decided that whatever happened, whether it was a one night stand or not, she was offering up something to me that was about trust and I didn’t want to betray that trust.
