Chapter 3
Looking at the faces of the women sitting around the table Enid knew that was an understatment because they were serious the evening had started out ordinarily enough. Maggie had informed her to be home by six because they were having a girls get together whatever that meant. when Enid came home Michonne, Carol, Rosita, Tara, Sasha,and Maggie were all milling around the table.
"You've got to try these new cookies I baked" said Carol smiling in that way she had that made Enid roll her eyes, Carol could be a pill with her act sometimes.
"I'll try one said Sasha, Carol handed her a Cookie and she bit into it " not bad not bad at all Pelietier"
"ha"said Carol licking cookie crumbs from the corner of her mouth " not to toot my own horn or anything, but considering the ingredients I had to work with I think these are my best yet"
Enid sat down and decided she would try one of Carol's cookies, taking one off the plate she bit into it. Sasha was right it wasn't bad she didn't know what they were made out of but she guessed some type of herb was in it, they had a savory after taste sage maybe.
"Well now" said Maggie we all know why we are here tonight, so lets get started does anyone want to go first'
All the women in the room took a seat at the table and then proceeded to look in Enid's direction, a full minute passed before Enid realized something was going on.
" What did I do" said Enid defensively
" You didn't do anything" said Maggie we all got together today because... well we thought we needed to talk to you about our experiences and give you some advice.
"What kind of advice" asked Enid suspiciously
"About boys...hmm men " said Carol
"Enid rolled her eyes, but she waited
" yes said Michonne awkwardly..you and Carl are at that age where you may want to, you know experiment sexually"
"Omg you guys cannot be serious" cried Enid
"We are" said Sasha..we just want you to know that you have options"
" look said Enid looking at all of them, Carl and I are just friends we aren't doing anything..yet"
"Of course you're not said Maggie we aren't accussing you of any such thing..we just want you to be prepared when you do wether its with Carl or someone else..this is for your benefit.
" yeah said Rosita sex isn't just about getting on your back and letting the man enter you"
" it sure isn't" said Tara..its not always about a man either"
At this they all laughed and it lightened the mood
"Do you know anything about oral sex, such as cunnilingus" asked Maggie
" No whats that" said Enid sqrunching up her face it sounds horrible. She didn't want to sound as ignorant as she felt
"Oh girl" said Sasha clapping her hands together its the best way for a woman to get an orgasm"
"Orgasm" repeated Enid what exactly is that
" a very euphoric feeling, hard to describe but once you have it you'll never forget it and will always crave it the french called it the little death said Michonne
They all nodded in agreement
After explining to her in great detail about cunnilingus, Enid had to admit she was curious to learn more.
"Then there is felatio" said Michonne thats how you please your man orally
" Oh said Maggie I have an idea, she got up and went to the dry pantry and came out with a bunch of carrots from the Hilltop, she handed each of the women a carrot "we can demonstrate with these she said pleased with herself"
"you've got to be kidding' me said Sasha
" I don't think so" said Tara looking at the carrot like it was a walker
" No" said Michonne
" I'll never look at carrots the same" said Rosita
"Maggie really" said Carol side eyeing her
"Yall this isn't the time for being shy, its about Enid..I'm a farm girl I grew up seeing the birds the bees the cows, Pigs and Horses do their business..sex was a regular topic of discussion in our house in one form or another and their a'nit no point in being shy about it, its the way of life and what are we ..warm blooded animals just like all the rest we a'nit no different. I'm a woman who enjoys sex with my husband and yll anit no different then me. And Michonne not to be in your business but I've walked passed your place on several occassions and I could hear you and Rick from here to Kentucky.
"What" said Michonne taken aback
" ohhhh" said Sasha laughing, so is that why Daryl's been sleeping on the porch I've seen him camped out there a few nights
Everyone began laughing at Michonne's expense, Enid didn't know what was funnier the look on Michonne's face or the fact that she had been caught out.
Well Abraham isn't exactly quiet either said Carol eyeing Sasha
Sasha sat back and folded her hands and rolled her eyes but she was smiling the whole time.
" Maybe not said Sasha..but I've seen you sneaking off with Tobin enough times for some afternoon delight"
" hell I deserve it" said Carol before the Turn..I had Ed..not only was I getting my ass beat but the sex was disgracful ..I look at who I was and I'm disgused with myself.. geez I don't even recognize that woman.. if I'd met her today I would kick her azz myself.
" well theres that' said Sasha
"Amen" said Tara
"Amen" they all agreed
The Carrots turned out to be a good tool after all, once the women got over their initial reservations, they all began giving demonstrations in various ways all except Tara who continued to eye the carrots with distain. Maggie almost gagged on her carrot when she had a sudden vision of Glenn walking in on all the ladies giving blow jobs to carrots and what his reaction would be, she was laughing so hard she almost choked and Rosita had to pat her on the back, which sent all the women into a fit of laughter.
"Well said Michonne" that was in bad taste which sent them off into another round of laughs.
"Does anyone want to discuss anal' said Maggie
Everyone was silent
"well its not my favorite" said Rosita but it is an option, I would say try it if you want an see for yourself if you like it or not..its a personal preference there are those who love it an those who don't
"good" said Michonne moving on, now the reason why we are letting you know about your options Enid is bacause you also need to understand how to utilize your options"
"Yes" said Maggie thats where you want to incorporate the Rhythm method which is really our whole reason for having this discussion with you..because surely you don't wan to get pregant"
" But you're pregant Maggie" said Enid
" I am but I'm married" said Maggie..Glenn and I thought it would be a good time to maybe start a family here in Alexandria..we did'n't think all this crazy stuff would happen..but thats not the point"
"yeah " said Rosita, the Rhythm method can help you keep track of your cycle so that you don't get pregnant but its not fool proof...so thats why we are letting you know your options and when to use them as opposed to just basic sex. because your period can switch up on you. lets say you have your cycle around the 17th of every month well it could switch to the 3rd of every month this usually happens if you are around a new group of fertile females.
"I'm so glad I never had to worry about getting pregant especially now " said Tara
"Me too" said Rosita giving Tara a peck on the cheek
" So basically Enid said Michonne the main thing you need to remember is this, one week after your period is over you can have regular sex as much as you want for up to 8 to 10 days then after that you can do oral because its not safe to have regular sex a week before and a week after your period because you can still be ovulating.
"Is that how you avoid getting pregant Michonne" asked Enid curiously
"well...ummm..I...can't get pregant..I had my tubes tied after I had my son Andre"
Everyone stared in silence at Michonne , Enid didn't know why everyone was looking at Michonne surprised but she knew she was about to hear something that not everyone was privy too and that made her excited because she was rarely if ever privy to much of anything.
" you had a child" said Maggie shocked, looking at Michonne she realized just how little she knew about her and that made her feel sad for some reason.
" Yes his name was Andre he was three years old, Michonne blinked hard a couple of times and took a deep breath.
Carol put her hand up to her face "Im so sorry she said" understanding the pain that Michonne felt, she put her hand over Miconne's and squeezed it reasurringly from one mother to another.
"Does Rick Know" asked Sasha
" yes" said Michonne I told him not to long ago..so you see we can do it like bunnies as much as we want"
*****************************************************************************************************8
"Carl" hollered Rick at the end of the staircase, a few minutes later Carl peaked his head from around he cornerr he had been taking a nap catching up on his lack of sleep,
"what" is dinner ready he asked he could hear his stomach rumbling.
"Nah" said Rick c'mon down here I need to talk to you'
yarwning and stretching carl made his way downstairs, and met his dad in the living room he was sitting on the couch looking a little tense.
" where is Michonne and Judith he asked noticing for the first time how quite the house was
"Judiths with father Gabriel and Michonne is over at Maggie's, dinners going to be a little late tonight I need to talk to you sit down he said
Carl sat down on the sofa and looked at his father
Rick looked down trying to gather his thoughts an then looked up at his son
"its been brought to my attention that you've been spending alot of time with Enid"
Carl didn't say anything he just looked at his dad
"well son your at a certain age where you know your body is changing, your growing into a man, he looked at his son hard this time realizing just how true those words were, Carl was growing up and as much as he didn't want to face that just yet it was true and he couldn't deny it. coming straight to the point he asked Carl
"Son what to you know about sex"
Carl knew more then his dad probably thought he did and what he an Michonne got up to every night he was getting a crash course, but he didn't tell his dad that.
Carl looked at Rick and shrugged his shoulders
"I don't know he" said I've heard some things from Abe and Eugene..not much I guess
"Michonne thought I should ..
"Michonne" said Carl what has she got to do with this
" nothing said Rick she just thought since you an Enid are spending so much time together that we should talk about thangs"
"What kind of thangs" asked Carl
"You know Stuff" said Rick..Stuff that happens between men and women when they like eachother"
" like the stuff you and Michonne do" said Carl
Rick cleared his throat..this isn't about me and Michonne...its about you said Rick trying to steer the conversation back to the topic at hand
" What I'm trying to talk to you about is the ways you can please your partner and they can ..ummm please you..there are all kinds of ways to do this and as your father I'm the one that should talk to you about it..Rick went on to explain in detail the various sex acts going into as much detail as Carl needed..so do you have anymore questions for me Carl Rick asked
"Do you do all that stuff to Michonne" Carl asked
Rick could feel the blush on his cheeks " why do you ask" he said tilting his head and looking at Carl
Carl really couldn't believe his dad had no idea how loud they were not only in the moring but at noon an night.
"look" said Rick the reason why I'm telling you all this is so that you know you have options I'm sure you don't want to get anyone pregant wether its Enid or anyone , its all about being respossible.
"Dad, Enid and I aren't having sex if thats what you're thinking our relationship hasn't gotten that far..yet anyway"
" Just in case it does ok" said Rick
" sure dad' said Carl...and thanks
"for what" said Rick
"for being my dad"
"The pleasure is all mine" said Rick pulling Carl into a hug
