go
out with a guy and then wait on pins and needles for him to call."
Was I that transparent? "Who says I'm on pins and
needles?"
"Well, the few times that I have seen you today,
you've held that cell phone in your hand as if it's your lifeline," she
commented.
I shrugged. "Well, I'm just having a few
doubts," I admitted. "Maybe he didn't find our evening as
stimulating, in more ways than one, as I did." I frowned. “Maybe he
doesn’t like me anymore.”
"Nonsense!" Selena scoffed, waving her hand
in dismissal. "He's just playing it cool. Of course he likes you! Who
wouldn't?"
"I'm not so sure. He was certainly more
experienced than me in the sex department, so maybe I-"
"Did he give you the cold shoulder after
sex?"
"Well, not really-"
"Did he say anything?"
I felt the heat of a blush travel up my neck and into
my cheeks. "He did imply that it was pretty good," I said.
"Maybe I should play it cool, too, not make him think that I'm going to be
pining after him or anything. That would just be the worst."
“When it comes to my experience with men, I have found
that the one thing that scares them away more quickly than anything else is the
sense that the girl is expecting some kind of a commitment just because they've
had sex."
I shook my head. "I haven't implied anything of
the sort, nor do I expect it," I said. "Then again, maybe I shouldn't
have been so quick to let him literally have his way with me, not once, but
twice!" I frowned at Selena. "Do you think I offered too much on the
first date?"
"Jessica, that's impossible for me to say. I
wasn't there. Based on what you told us last night, and believe me, your
details were rather limited, the chemistry between you two was extremely hot.
If the passion was flowing, and I mean in more ways than one, then you can
hardly be blamed for getting caught up in the experience."
"I wonder," I said. "I have to admit
that my experiences with guys are rather limited. In fact, almost everything I
know has been based on the sex scenes in my books. The guys that I've slept
with, and believe me, I can count them on the fingers of one hand, have been
rather lackluster and lacking in any indication of skill."
She laughed gently. "You don't have to be an
expert in sex to get a sense that your partner is good at it," she said.
"I remember my first time wasn't anything earth shattering, either. In
fact, I think I went through several boyfriends until I manage to latch onto
one who actually knew how to please me and didn't just expect a quickie for
himself."
I shook my head. "Why are guys so selfish? Most
of them want to get in your pants so bad that they seem to forget that there's
actually a person attached to them!"
"Just take it one day at a time, Jessica," Selena
suggested, getting up from the bed. "Actually, I came up to see if you
wanted to go out and grab a bite of pizza with me. The others are off with
their boyfriends, and here I am, alone on a Sunday afternoon with nothing to
do."
I shook my head. "I'll take a rain check, if you
don't mind. Sorry. I've got some homework to get done, and to be quite honest,
I probably wouldn't be the best company anyway."
She smiled as she headed for the door. "Your
loss!"
I watched as she left the room, closing the door
softly behind her. Maybe she was right. Luke was just playing it cool. Of
course he liked me! How couldn't he? He had generally seemed to be having a
nice time, so maybe I was just succumbing to my lack of self-confidence when it
came to guys. Then again, why should I be the one to wait on pins and needles
for him? He was the one that had to live up to my standards, not the other way
around. Still, it did make me wonder.

By Monday morning when I walked into advanced
chemistry class, I was sure that I would see Luke. I had already determined I
would definitely play it cool. I hadn't heard from him since Saturday night,
and despite my comments to Selena and my attempt to convince myself that I
didn't care, I did
