Chapter 9: Never been more sure in my life

Josh: Hey Babe, I know we don't normally spend Fridays together but Andrew is away so we would have the dorm to ourselves ?

Maya was in class at the time. She kept glancing down at her phone not knowing how to answer. Being alone with a college guy in his dorm room on a Friday night. Was this really a good idea. Was she really ready. She knew exactly what he had in mind.

Maya: Of course. Mom and Shawn have gone back to Philly for the weekend so it shouldn't be a problem. Can you pick me up from mine later? x

Maya couldn't go to Josh's dorm in what she was wearing. After leaving a school Maya made her way to her room and tried to pick out an outfit. She had no idea what to wear. Maya settled on a thigh high dress, one that she knew Josh had loved. There was a knock at the door, Maya picked up her bag and answered it. Josh just stood there looking her over.

"Wow. Um you look great Maya"

"Thanks Josh, you ready to go?"

"Sure I have a surprise for you. Andrew is just finishing it now"

Josh had an idea when Andrew told him they were going away to have a romantic dinner (well a romantic as it could get in a college dorm room). They never really had a chance to stay together. Josh and Maya had never spoken about there past relationships. He had no idea how far Maya had gone.

"M'lady" Josh said as he opened the door.

The dorm had a table and chairs set up with stacks of candles and roses. Andrew had left before they had arrived. Maya just looked around the room. They sat down at the table and Josh came out with Tacos. Maya couldn't help but laugh. All this fancy stuff around the room and he got tacos. It was simple, just the way she liked it. They sat there eating and talking.

Maya was so happy as to how easy it was with Josh. He had reached out across the table and held her hands. They moved over to the tv area and sat down. Watching the tv just as they had the night Josh had asked her to be his girlfriend. She looked up and leaned in. They deepened the kiss. Maya knew what she wanted but was scared to make the first move. After about 5 minutes it was clear Josh wasn't going to going to do anything further. Josh had been so respectful to her not pushing her in anyway through the last few months.

Maya pulled the on the hem of his shirt and began to lift it. Her lips never leaving Josh's.

"Maya are you sure?"

"Never been more sure in my life"

Josh had taken it slow making sure he wasn't hurting her. He had been so careful with her Maya felt so loved. She had never imagined her first time to be so good let alone with the guy she had been crushing on for years her best friends uncle. The whole time Josh was trying to make her feel comfortable.

They had woken up the next morning. Maya's head on Josh's chest. He looked down at her just observing her beauty. She was stirring in her sleep. If he could wake up like this every morning for the rest of his life he would be a happy man. As much as he wanted to get up and clean everything from the night before he knew he couldn't leave her. Maya would freak if she woke up and he wasn't there. Especially after what they had done the night before.

Maya opened her eyes to see Josh just looking at her.

"Hey gorgeous, how you feeling this morning?"

"Perfect Josh, absolutely perfect" Maya said with a massive smile on her face.
