Chapter 7

Claire: We decided to have a quieter night tonight. We still had some drink, but not as much as last night. We sat downstairs and watched a video we rented.

John and I have been dating for about two and a half months now, and finally, I think I'm ready.

I had been thinking about it all day, and I think John noticed I wasn't myself. About half an hour into the movie, I went upstairs to my room and said I needed a lie down. John followed me up. We sat on the edge of my bed.

"Are you alright Sweets? You seem upset, have I done something wrong?"

"No John. I'm fine."

"No you're not. C'mon princess, tell me. Pleeease?"

I laughed. "Okay. I um, I think I might be ready to, you know, take it to the next step.."

"You mean have sex?"

I blushed, "yes."

"Are you sure? You know this will officially make you my girl, there's no going back from this."

"No I know, I'm sure. I'm ready"

"Alright then."

John lied back on the bed, wearing only a vest and his jeans. I was wearing a skirt and a top. I sat next to him. He started kissing me and made me feel comfortable. He lay on top of me and gently pulled my top off before throwing it to the floor. Then he unzipped my skirt and did the same with it. He had seen me in my underwear before. He started to take his own clothes off so we were both there in our underwear. He kissed me again, all down my neck and chest and across my breasts. It felt special. He put his hands behind me and undid my bra. I leaned forward and it fell off, so I threw it with the rest of our clothes. We continued like this until we were completely naked. I was laying on my back, John was on top of me and my duvet was draped over his back. He looked so handsome. He stopped kissing me.

"Are you sure now?" He asked.

"Yes" I smiled at him.

"Okay, it's going to feel a bit weird alright, and it may hurt at first, but I'll be gentle." I nodded and watched him put a condom on. This was it. He started kissing me again and them I felt him inside me. It felt strange, uncomfortable almost. He asked me if I was okay again and I nodded.

"One push from me and then you'll feel better alright" he was being so gentle. He pushed into me and I let out a little moan. It hurt. But he was right, it did feel better now. I kissed him and held onto his back while he moved in and out of me. Eventually, I started to get into the rhythm with him. I felt less conscious and just went with it, I was moaning so much but so was he now and again. After a while, I had a weird feeling build up inside me. John noticed, he told me to just go with it so I did. We reached climax together.

John: I pulled out of her, took the condom off, tied it up and threw it in the bin. Then I lied down next to her. We were both panting. Wow. I've had sex plenty of times, but that was different. That was special. I hugged Claire and asked her if she was okay again. She said she was but I could tell she was in pain a bit.

"I'm sorry", I said, "I did try to be as gentle as I could."

"I'm fine. You were gentle John, you were lovely."

I gave her another kiss and looked her in the eyes.

"I love you Claire Standish." She looked shocked, I don't think she was expecting me to say that. I had never said that to a girl before, except for my mom and Jodi when I was a kid. Oh God, maybe I shouldn't have said it. I closed my eyes and turned to face the other way.

"I love you too John Bender." She whispered it to me. I couldn't help but smile.
