Emerson

Her words echo through my head over and over again. A virgin.

A virgin?

I guessed she was slightly sheltered, and definitely a little naive, but I certainly wasn’t expecting this.

Swallowing the nervous lump in my throat is difficult considering how dry and pasty it is. Somehow, I manage to swallow while smacking my tongue off the roof of my mouth like it’s coated with peanut butter.

She shifts nervously across from me. “Say something, Emerson.” Her words are pleading, and her voice quavers.

“You took me by surprise,” I manage to croak. It definitely isn’t smooth and I instantly wish my words back.

Her eyes drop from mine and her lips press together in a firm line.

“That came out wrong,” I whisper, more to myself than to her. I know that she heard me once she starts biting at the skin around her nails. I set down the canvases I’m holding and join her on the beanbag, sitting so close to her that our knees touch, sending shockwaves through my whole body. “I’m sorry this is so awkward. I don’t want it to be. Can I try again?” I smile at myself. Talk about naive.

She looks up at me through the dark curtain of her hair. “Why bother?” she asks meekly.

“Because now that I’m able to form a coherent sentence, I’d like to react the way I actually feel.”

Her eyebrows pinch together creating the cutest little bump between her eyes.

“Tell me again,” I say confidently.

“I’m a virgin.”

“Good.” I lean forward and wrap my arms around her. “Just another last first that gets to be mine.”
