"C…Come with you?" Narvel stared up at the beautiful woman before him, unable to comprehend what she was saying, his thoughts turned to a jumble of mush. They had been on twelve wonderful dates so far in the weeks that had followed the initial one, each kiss goodbye becoming more intense. Every time he pulled away it got harder and harder to stop himself. But he had promised himself he wouldn't push, they would go further when *she* wanted to, when *she* was ready and not a moment sooner. "Narvel?" Reba's voice jerked him out of his thoughts and back to the moment before him. Well it would be much more than a moment once he got star…"Stop!" Narvel mentally chastised himself for letting his mind once again wander, then turned his full attention once again to Reba. He took her hand and followed her to her room.

Swallowing hard, he realized how nervous he felt, how nervous she must be as well. Reba had confided in him she had been a virgin until Charlie, leaving him as only the second person ever to make love to her. Although he wasn't entirely sure Charlie had ever taken the time of the care to really do so. Charlie was all about sex, not lovemaking. He vowed to be the exact opposite He would worship her body, pay her the respect, attention, and love she truly deserved.

Reba noticed the looks Narvel was giving her, and gave him one of her trademark grins in return before pressing up against him and kissing him longingly. "Mmm...wait."
