June whispers, “Oh my god.”

“I am so sorry?—"

“I’ll … I’ll go clean up.” She launches from the chaise nest for the bathroom.

I can hardly blame her. Glaring up at the decorative carved wooden ceiling, I am beyond frustrated with myself. I zip up and get myself presentable, but my mind races from self-loathing to cynical. Of course, Dad had to come and interrupt the best moment of my life. I should have known better than to think I’d get to simply bask in the afterglow with June.

Oh, shit. June. Is she going to freak out? Is she going to never speak to me again? That might actually kill me.

When she emerges from the bathroom, I can’t get a read on her expression, so my heart drums. She nervously asks, “Can we get out of here?”

Okay, I enjoy hearing we out of her, but the rest is null. “I won’t make you stay, but I would ask it of you.”

“Your dad just caught us having sex!”

“He did, but he’s not going to say anything to anyone.”

She frowns. “What makes you so sure?”

“Because he’s the type of man to be more embarrassed about it than we are. Hell, he might even be jealous?—"

“Jealous?”

“That we’re young and can’t keep our hands off each other.”

“Oh.” She almost smiles at that.

“He won’t tell a soul, June.”

Her shoulders slump. “Okay. But how can I look him in the eye after that?”

“To be honest, I’m asking myself the same question. I guess we muddle through?”

She sits next to me, and I’m relieved she hasn’t run out the door yet. “This is humiliating, Anderson.”

“It’s not the best thing that’s ever happened, but at least we had that before he showed up.”

She smiles and tips her head to my shoulder. “Yeah, we did.”

“So, that was good for you, too, then?”

She nods, and I can take a full breath finally. She’s not about to run away if that was the case for her, too. “I wonder about something.”

“What’s that?”

“So, you liked me back in school, right?”

“Yes.”

“And you just didn’t know how to express it, if I’m following what you said before.”

I nod. “I had no game and no good example of how to speak to someone I liked. In short, I was a teenage boy.”

She giggles. “So, I wonder if the reason I can’t stop thinking about you inside of me is because of fourteen years of sexual tension between us.”

Her words make my cock ache. Even now, I want to fuck her again. Not that we have the time, and I don’t think I could go again quite this soon after two rounds, but dammit, if I don’t want to try. “Uh, that could be. So, do you think you’re up for dessert with the family?”

She sighs. “Yeah, I think I can manage it. Just don’t make me sit near your father. Ever.”
