Andie and Anthony tried with all their being's too keep quiet but they failed miserably. Everything brought about another burst of laughter, another stomp on the floor, another trip. They continued to run into each other or the walls and once they almost sent a vase to an early grave. When they reached Andie's room they tried to steady themselves but Andie made the mistake of opening the door to quickly and they landed on the floor. Andie tried to push him off but she was laughing to hard. As Anthony tried to stand his head collided with the door slamming it shut. Andie fell into another uncontrollable bout of laughter.


"That's not funny," Anthony said rubbing his head.


"Maybe not for you," Andie gasped.


"Andie, Andie, what's your name?"


"What?"


"It doesn't matter!" Anthony quoted the Rock.


Andie forced herself up and hit the light switch for the lamp on the table. Her roommate was visiting her family so they were completely alone.


"I'm so going to rock bottom you," Andie said.


"I'd love to see you try," Anthony said.


Andie eyed him. "You're not worth it." She walked toward her bathroom and then suddenly jumped at him. He caught her but then lost his balance. They both fell onto the bed, Anthony on bottom.


"No, no, no I won't stand for this," he said. He rolled over until he won the top.


She giggled. "I got you do-own!"


"Oh yeah, look who's on the bottom," Anthony taunted.

Suddenly, Anthony's lips brushed hers, and like a wave rushes over the sands, Anthony was flooded with a passion he'd never felt before. He kissed her again, this time harder. She kissed back. His tongue parted her shy lips. He let go of her arms and pressed her to his body. She wrapped her arms around his neck. He felt her small fingers slid hesitantly into his curly hair.

So soft, surprisingly soft.

She smelled wonderful, like flowers after a rain shower. He pulled her closer than any woman he had ever pulled close before. And he could think of nothing but being with her.
Andie felt his large hand slid up her back under her shirt, but she did not stop him. His presence intoxicated her. Big and strong. She could feel the muscles in his back contract. He held her tightly but at the same time softly. She did not know how to explain it. His soft lips touched her neck and she sighed. Her head rolled back. The cool air of the room kissed her body as her shirt slowly left it. Then her heart started to race.

/What if I'm bad?/ She thought. /He has someone to compare me to, I've never done this, what if I'm bad?/

His hands slid down her back side.

/Okay, keep calm Andie, she coached herself. Just don't think about it./


Anthony pushed his jacket of as the room heated up. He felt Andie's hands slid palm down his chest and tentatively pushed up his shirt.


Against his bare chest he could feel her heart pounding. She's nervous, he mused. How cute. Anthony nuzzled her neck to reassure her. He pulled her tiny frame close. He could feel her start to shake in his arms. He stroked her hair and kissed her ear. She leaned her face to his neck and kissed it softly. Her warm hands rubbed his back lightly, her fingers twirled his hair.

Anthony sighed. /This isn't anything like it was with Caroline,/ he thought. /Nothing at all./
