Three weeks. For three weeks Katie and I have been seeing each other and in no way is it getting boring, or less fun, or anything. It's way more exciting than it was at first. And no complaining about the fun either. Katie is so weird, she keeps cracking me up. And when she gives me that look again, the 'why the hell are you laughing'-look, I can't help it, I crack up even more. Of course that face is so adorable that I always end up kissing her, one way or the other. It's like, I have to. An invisible force draws me closer and always my lips end up on hers. Hmm, wonder why. Maybe because she is just so damn irresistable.

Anyway, the last three weeks have been great. We went out on a few dates, and we hung out with Michelle and Susanna a couple of times. I also met Katie's roommate, Rachel. She's really nice, and also fun to hang out with. Last week we went to this club and Michelle and Rachel got really drunk. Now those two together is a dangerous combination. They went man-hunting together for Michelle, because she was getting nothing from her crush Scott, but all they got after them were horny guys who were looking for a quickie. So we had to save them both from emberrassing situations and get them home safely, which they thanked us for the next morning, when they were sober again.

All things considered, we had a great time. Things were going great between Katie and me and we had such a hard time keeping our hands away from each other when we were among other people, but we managed, even though it was really hard. You see, of course we had done the making out thing plenty of times by now, but actually sleeping together, that hadn't happened yet. We both wanted it, we really wanted it from the very beginning, but now I was really feeling that we were ready for it too. We had gotten to know each other really well, and making love to Katie was just the thing that would make it all perfect. I just knew it was going to be great and I knew Katie wanted it too. Now we were basically just waiting for the right moment, which, I was hoping, would come soon.

I had just taken a shower and entered my room where Michelle was sitting on her bed, bowed down over some books. She looked up when I entered.

"Hey, your mom called." she said.

"Oh, what did she want?" I asked, as I hang my towel out to dry.

She shrugged. "I dunno. Just wanted to know how her offspring was doing I guess."

"Right, well, I'll give her a call back then." I said.

"Sure. Hey, you wanna go to Starbucks later? I need to get away from these books for a while." she asked.

"Yeah, sure." I answered as I leaned down and peaked in her books. Michelle had a thing for science and she wanted to be one of those laboratory people. Now how a hyper girl like her can be a laboratory person is beyond me, but hey, it's been like her all time dream since, forever and she loved it, so fine by me.

I read out loud. "During growth of S. cerevisiae on ethanol, synthesis of almost all major biopolymers requires the activity of the glyoxylate-cycle enzymes isocitrate lyase and malate synthase for the net syntesis of TCA cycle intermediates."

I looked at her. "Well, I can sure see why you would want to get away."

"It's so difficult." she said. "I have to read it like, a million times before I get it."

I picked up the phone and dialled the number. "Well, at least you get it at all."

She sighed and laid back on her bed. "Argh, why didn't I just choose English? I already speak that."

"Cause this is what you want and you're smart." I said.

"Well, not right now." she mumbled, picking up her pillow and dropping it over her head.

I was just about to tell her Starbucks would solve everything when I heard my mother's voice.

"Oh, hey mom." I greeted her cheerfully. "Michelle told me you called."

"Yes, I did." she said. "How are you doing?"

"I'm great." I answered. "School is going fine. How are you?"

"Oh, I'm good, you know, the usual. I miss you." she said.

"Miss you too mom. I really do." I told her. I did miss her, I hadn't seen her in a while. Suddenly I had an idea.

"Hey, I could come over this weekend." I offered.

"Ah, that would be nice. Are you gonna drive?" she wondered.

"Yeah. I think so."

I paused. My mother knew that I was gay, but she didn't know about Katie yet and the first time your girlfriend meets the parents is always a little weird. I thought this would be a good oppurtunity to introduce the them. Well, at least to my mother.

"Hey mom..." I started.

"Yes sweety."

"Is it ok if I bring somebody?" I asked hesitantly. Michelle peaked her head out from under the pillow.

"Well, of course. Who?"

"Ehm. Katie." I said.

"Who's Katie?"

I looked over at Michelle, who was staring at me with a stupid grin on her face.

"My ehm, girlfriend." I said.

"Oh honey, you have a girlfriend? I didn't know that." she said surprised, but cheerful. Hmm, well, now that went fine.

"Well, yeah, for three weeks now."

"Three weeks already? So you're taking her with you? Well, she's welcome." mom said.

"Well, I haven't really asked her yet, but I just thought of the idea, so if you're ok with it, I'll ask her if she wants to come." I explained.

"Well, of course I'm ok with it. I would love to meet her. What's she like?" she asked.

"Ah, she's great mom. She's beautiful and funny and she's gonna be a lawyer, and she's... well, you'll see. She's just great." I said with a smile on my face.

Michelle giggled. "She's so pretty, she's so beautiful and I'm so in love, mommy." she said in a baby voice.

I picked up Michelle's pillow and threw it back on her face. "Shut up." I said firmly but chuckling.

"What?" mom asked.

"Oh, nothing mom, I was just telling Michelle to hush. She's being a brat." I said as Michelle emerged from under her pillow giggling.

"Ah, ok." Mom said confused. "Well, she sounds nice. I hope she wants to come. Let me know if she does."

"I will. Bye mom, I'll see you on Friday."

"Bye honey." mom said, and we hung up.

Michelle was looking at me admiringly. "So the girlfriend is gonna meet the `rents huh?"

I smiled. "Well, as you know, `cause you listened, I still have to ask Katie. So I don't know if she's coming."

"Well, go ask her then. Call her." Michelle said.

"Nah, I'm going over to her now, I'll ask her then." I said while I grabbed my keys.

Michelle pouted. "Aw, but then I won't get to eavesdrop on your conversation."

"Well, that's sort of the point." I giggled. "You love that way too much."

"Aw. You're mean."

"That's the only way to treat you, sweety." I said as I opened the door.

"Sure." she giggled. "Try not to snuggle too much."

"Not sure I can make that promise." I said smiling. "Bye."

"Bye." Michelle said as I closed the door behind me.

I made my way downstairs and comfortably walked towards Katie's room and knocked on her door.

"Open!' I heard a yell. Now, that sounds like my girlfriend.

I pushed the door open and saw Katie on the bed. Her face lit up when she saw me.

"Hey babe." she said cheerfully when I walked in.

"Hey."

"No Rachel?" I asked after I looked around and noticed the room empty.

"No Rachel." she confirmed.

I walked over and gave her a soft kiss on the lips. When I pulled back she leaned with me and pulled me closer.

"Not yet." she mumbled in my mouth. Hmm, well, sure.

After a few seconds we parted and I found myself sitting on the bed all of a sudden. Somewhere along the line I must have sat down. Well, excuse me, but I was a little too busy to notice.

"Hey again." I said smiling.

She grinned and leaned back on her pillow. She picked up the books scattered out on her bed and piled them up.

"Whatcha doing?" I wondered as I took off my jacket and tossed it carelessly on the floor.

"I was just trying to get this stuff stamped into my head." she answered.

"Is it working?" I asked as I snuggled close to her.

She giggled. "No, I think my head is full. Besides, now I'm distracted by a certain girlfriend of mine, so even if it wasn't full, nothing could be stamped in at the moment."

"Hmm, well maybe you need a break." I suggested.

"From the certain girlfriend?" she asked teasingly.

"No, from the stamping." I said, shoving her playfully.

"Good plan." she said. "Any suggestions?"

"Well, actually, I do." I started.

"What do you have in mind?" she asked.

"Well, I'm going to my mother this weekend, and ehm…."

Katie grinned. "And what?"

"Well, I was wondering if maybe you… ehm, wanted to come with me." I asked hesitantly.

Her face lit up again. "You want me to meet your mother?"

I smiled shyly. "Yes I do. I want you two to meet. And most of all, I want you two to get along."

I looked in her eyes. "If you think it's too early to meet my mother, you have to tell me, honestly."

She smiled at me, tugging a stray of hair out of my face. "Sweety, I don't think it's too early. In fact, I think it's great you want me to meet your mom. I know how much you care about her."

"So, do you wanna go?"

"I would love to go." she answered. "Really."

"Thanks." I said sincerely.

"So when are we going?"

"Friday. You up for that?"

She smiled. "Sure I am. And my mom cancelled our Sunday thing too, cause she has this business thing with my father. So no obligations on Sunday."

"Hee, good." I stroked Katie's cheek and realized for the millionth time how lucky I was with her.

"What?" Katie wondered.

"My mom's gonna adore you." I said.

Katie smiled. "You think?"

"Definitely. She will adore you just like I do." I smiled. Katie gave me a look.

"Hey, not like that. I don't even want to think of that." I said quickly.

Katie burst out into laughing. "Yeah, might be a good idea to change this subject now."

"Plan." I said as I pressed my lips against hers.

Katie seemed to like my plan, and soon we were engaged in a passionate kiss. My hands roamed freely over her body and found my way under her shirt. I tickled the skin I felt under my fingers and Katie moaned in my throat. My hands traced her sides down towards her pants and I felt my fingers tugging at her button. I heard a voice in my head telling me Katie had a roommate and she could be walking in here any minute, and that was not the way I wanted my first time with Katie to be, but oh damn, I wanted her so badly.

"We…. should…. not…. be doing ….. this…. now." I muttered in between kisses.

Katie lowered her head to my neck and placed hot kisses there, burning the flesh her lips touched.

"No… you're right. We…. should….. stop…. now" she got out. I could tell she was just as frustrated as me.

I tugged at her shirt, lifting it up a little, exposing her belly. I swallowed when I saw it, it was perfect. I lowered my head towards it and traced around her belly button with my tongue. I heard Katie squeak in pleasure and couldn't help but smile, while I placed kissed all over her belly and gently sucked at the warm flesh.

My own belly was working overtime too. I had major case of the butterflies, and both our breathing was going rapidly. I had forgotten all about Rachel and everything else, and all I could think about was Katie's beautiful body and the soft skin I felt underneath my fingers and lips.

This was the moment my phone decided to ring.

The thing startled me to death and I quickly raised my head and got myself partly off of Katie.

"Gmbrlb." Katie made the world's unnatural highest squeaking sound, obviously not at all pleased when my lips were suddenly no longer on her skin.

When I realized it was just the phone, and we were not really caught in the act, I relaxed a little, but I shot daggers with my eyes at my jacket, which contained the party pooper. I lowered my head on the bed, and groaned in frustration.

"Saved by the bell." I mumbled, as I reluctantly got up and searched for the phone in my pockets.

I looked over at Katie, who was still laying on her back, still breathing very heavily and looking at me with the most frustrated look I had ever seen. I felt so sorry for her because I know exactly how she felt. Hell, I felt it too.

I found my phone, mouthed a `sorry' to Katie, and picked it up.

"Hello."

"Jess. Hey." I heard my brother's voice.

"Eli. Hey."

"How's it going?" he asked.

I looked over at Katie, who was beginning to get her breathing back to normal. "Ehm, well, good, it's good." I said. "How are you?"

"Hee, I'm fine. Listen, mom told me you were coming over this Friday and I haven't seen you in a while, so I just wanted to call you."

"Well, you did. And I'm coming. So you heard right." I said.

"Great." he said cheerfully. "And ehm, hey, mom told me you were seeing somebody, did I hear that right, too?"

I smiled. Word travels fast apparently. "Ehm, yeah, I am seeing somebody."

"Yeah, mom told me. Her name is Katie right?" he asked. I could tell he was happy for me that I had somebody.

"Yeah, it is. You'll like her." I told him.

"I'm sure I will. Can't wait to meet her."

"Well, you will meet her. She's coming on Friday." I said, looking over at Katie, who smiled at me.

"Hee, that's cool. But hey, I gotta go now, I don't have much time. Talk to you Friday, ok?" he said.

"Sure Eli, I'll see you then."

"Bye Jess." he said, right before he hung up.

I stared at my phone for a second before I turned my head to Katie, who was looking at me with big puppy dog eyes.

"Sorry about that, sweety." I said with a faint smile.

She grinned. "Well, like you said. Saved by the bell."

We looked at each other, and both burst out into laughter.
