It was Saturday afternoon. Mike dropped two frozen waffles into the toaster and walked to the freezer to put away the box.
"Mike?"
"Yeah?"
"What is sex?"
The question caught Mike off guard and he dropped the box of Eggos, he became flustered and his face turned hot, "Um, I'm not sure I'm the right person to teach you about this stuff..."
"Well who is?" He didn't have an answer for that.
"Alright, well it's... Who told you about it anyway?" He asked bending down to pick them up.
Eleven could tell she had made him uncomfortable. "Does it matter?" She asked.
"Well, sorta..."
"Girls at school. I asked them what they were talking about but they laughed at me." She looked at the floor.
Mike took a deep breath, "Well it's something that you do with someone you love... And it's how people have babies, but it's more than that..."
"What do you mean?" Her head tilted slightly, he found it adorable and smiled.
"Well I don't know exactly... I've never done it."
"Why do people do sex?"
He laughed a little but remembered what she said about her classmates and he stopped himself. "They do it because it feels good."
"Like kissing?"
"Yeah like kissing but..."
"But what?" Her head slanted again.
"Well you don't use your mouth. At least not the whole time..." Her brow narrowed
Mike let out a sigh... "It's a little hard to explain, see boys and girls have got..." Suddenly Mike remembered something, a magazine that Dustin had brought over before he had even met El, or lost Will... "I'll be right back."
Mike returned with the wrinkled pages in his hand. "Look are you sure you want to see this?"
Eleven nodded silently eyes wide. "Ok, but I warned you, this is a little graphic..."
Mike opened the magazine to a page with a bent corner. El was shocked.
"Do you have to be naked to do sex?" She asked, eyes trained on the page.
"Um, well no I guess not but those parts have to be out..." He says gesturing towards the people in the photographs genitals.
"The first night I got here you told me not to take my clothes off. You said I needed privacy."
"Yeah well sex is something you do in private. With someone you trust."
"I trust you." El blurted out. "...Mike?"
"Yes?"
"Can we try-"
"Look its not really something kids do ok?" Mike interrupted, his heart racing.
She looked hurt, "But we kiss."
"Yeah but it's different..."
"Ok, Mike."
The toaster popped up and the smell of the waffles drifted across the room. "Let's just eat, we can talk more about it later if you want." She smiled and leaned in to kiss him.
...
Hours later, Mike opened the shower curtain and gasped, he slipped but caught himself. Eleven was in the bathroom with him. He pulled the curtain back to cover up. "El what the hell are you doing in here? How'd you even get in?" Eleven looked at the door knob, the lock twisted and he heard it relock behind her. He felt pretty stupid. "Right... But what are you doing in here?"
"Private." She said flatly.
Mike's heart raced and his lungs felt like he'd been running, but he stood still. Eleven was wearing one of his shirts and it reached a quarter of the way down her thighs. She slowly pulled it over her head and Mike's racing heart skipped a beat, his heavy breath stopped entirely. The shower knob turned and the water began flowing again, the curtain moved to the side out of Mike's grasp and the two looked at one another completely naked. El walked towards him and stepped into the shower.
"Mike I trust you, and... I love you."
She kissed him and the shower curtain closed behind her. Her arms find their way around his neck and his find her hips. "I love you too." He said, they smile. "I thought you were pretty before, but I had no idea..." A giggle escapes her lips before he kisses her again.
They pull each other closer and press their hips together.
"Woah..." Eleven said as she looked down. "Did I do that?"
"Yeah..." He admitted.
"Can I touch it?" She asked.
He nodded slowly and she reached down. She held it gently and Mike's breath stopped once again. "Feels good?" She asked, and he nodded back again. "Like this?" She said as she began moving her hand up and down.
"Yeah that's... Holy shit thats amazing." He said and she grinned at him.
"Will you... Will you touch me?" She asked him and his eyes widened.
"Here." He said while turning her around, now holding her from behind he pressed himself against her soft wet skin and reached around to her front. He puts one hand on her chest and slid the other down her stomach. She gulped when he drew nearer and he could feel her breath double in speed. He kissed the back of her neck and she let out a small moan as he slid a finger inside her. He could feel her squeeze his finger and he began to feel a little in over his head "I don't really know what I'm doing..." He said.
"I think you're... doing it right..." She said between heavy breaths. And she reached behind her and grabbed hold of him again, a little tighter this time. El began moaning and Mike found that he liked the sound.
"Oh god..." Mike said, "Wait El stop."
"Did I hurt you? Did I mess up?" She said turning around quickly.
"No! No! It's nothing like that you're doing great, I was just close to..."
"Close to what?"
"Finishing." He said.
"Oh, well do we have to finish? Or can we keep doing this?" She asked grabbing his hand and guiding it back toward her groin while holding his with her other hand. She was warm and wet, not just from the shower, she moaned once more and Mike couldn't hold it on any longer. El looked down at her hand.
"Oh god, I'm sorry." He said, "I should have warned you, it's gross I know..."
"Sticky." she said.
"Here." He held her hand under the running water until it was clean.
"I don't mind," she said smiling, "it means I was doing good right?"
"Uh yeah. Thanks by the way..." They kissed again. "Ok your turn." Mike said, and El raised her eyebrows. He kissed her neck and drew her closer. With four fingers he rubbed the front of her, spreading her apart and exploring the crevice.
"Oh my!" She gasped, "What is that?"
"It's a sensitive spot." He said, "Does that feel good?" She didn't answer but he could tell by the look on her face that it did. He rubbed faster and harder.
"Don't stop!" She managed to say quietly her fingers entwined in his dark hair. She shuddered and arched her back, she let out a final moan and caught her breath. "How did you do that...? What was that...?"
"It's an orgasm... It's what you just did to me." He said incredibly pleased that he was able to make her feel so good.
"Did we have sex?" She asked?
"Not exactly... But that's usually the reason people have sex, if that makes sense."
"Mike, can we please try it?"
He nodded, "Ok. But maybe we should just do it in my bed? It's a little slippery in here." She smiled, the water stopped, the curtain opened, and the door unlocked.
"Ok." She said.
...
*Knock knock knock* "Nancy!" Mike whispered loudly at his sister's door, still dripping wet with only a towel on.
The door swung open "What is it? I thought you were going to bed."
"I need a... I need a condom..." Shock filled Nancy's face.
"For El?"
"...Well yeah..."
The door shuts and opens a few seconds later. She hands her brother two small square packages. "Just please be careful... And don't do anything she's uncomfortable with..."
"I will be, and I won't... Thanks Nance." Mike walked quickly and quietly to his room, shut the door behind him and locked it.
When he turned around he saw Eleven sitting on his bed completely naked her towel on the floor. He felt her lifting his towel off of him and it landed on top of hers. Mike walked to the edge of the bed and gently pushed El on her back, crawling over her. He kissed her and said, "Are you sure you want to do this? I've heard that it might hurt your first time."
"Mike, please?"
"Ok." He stands tears open one of the packages and rolls the condom on.
"What's that for?" She asked.
"It's to catch the sticky stuff. So it doesn't go inside you."
"Oh, alright. I'm ready." She said.
Mike leaned back over her and kissed her again "Alirght." He said and he rubbed his cock against her tight opening. Both their breathing quickened and he slowly pushed himself inside. She winced a little but soon her face changed to an expression of pleasure. She moaned quietly as Mike pulled in and out.
"I love you." She said making eye contact.
"I love you too."
"Uhn..." She wrapped her arms around his neck and they began to sweat as he quickened the pace. He felt her contract and squeeze him as she gasped and he continued to pound her. She let go and fell flat on her back. Mike had a good view of her heaving chest, she was exhausted and beautiful. He couldn't hold out a second longer. He pulled out tied the rubber in a knot and dropped it in the trash can. He collapsed on the bed next to Eleven.
"That was amazing." He said.
"I know. Way better than kissing." They smile, and she rolled over on her side to ask, "Can we do that again?"
"Yeah, but we'll need to get some more of these soon." He lifted the intact package.
"I still feel like I have a lot to learn." Said El.
"Don't worry, so do I." He assured her.
"Can I sleep in your bed tonight?"
"I was sort of hoping you would." They curled up under the covers and fell asleep quickly in each other's arms.
