“First face, then stomach?” I suggested.
He laughed, then sat on the bed. I sat next to him, and took the can from him to hold it against his cheek.
“What did he mean?” I asked. “About his dad?”
“Fuck if I know. Darren talks a lot of shit. I’m not worried about it. Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I’m fine. You didn’t have to do that.”
He looked at me. I felt my protests melting under his cool gaze.
“They were… weird,” I admitted. “Will pulled me into the room and wouldn’t let me leave. Darren said he would only let me go if I took a hit. I’m glad you showed up.”
Jack shrugged and turned away. “Any guy would’ve done the same.”
“No,” I corrected. “Most guys wouldn’t.”
“I was mostly pissed off they were smoking in my brother’s room. If my dad finds out, he’ll kill me.”
I knew he was just making an excuse; his punch had to do with what Darren had called me, not because of the smoking. I wished there was a way to show Jack how grateful I was. I struggled to think of something.
And then, in an impulsive flash, I removed the cold beer and lightly kissed Jack on the cheek.
He turned toward me, shocked.
“Thank you,” I whispered. “You’re a good man.”
Jack stared at me for several seconds. Then he cupped my cheek and pulled me into a kiss.
My first thought was that kissing probably hurt him, but I quickly stopped worrying about it as his lips churned against mine. Electricity flowed from his body to mine everywhere we touched—first our lips, then thighs, then from his hand to my lower back. Remembering what I had thought about in the pool, I pushed him onto his back and straddled him, never taking my mouth from his.
This feels so good.
Years of feelings, both good and bad, came bubbling to the surface as we made out. Every teasing interaction, every joking encounter. Asking if I had a Valentine every year. Driving me to prom despite his date’s annoyance. All of those had led up to this moment as I ground my hips against him on the bed, feeling what could only be his erection through the tight swim trunks.
Jack braced me by the arms and rolled me over until he was on top. He crushed me with his warm body, the pressure of his weight pressing into the place between my legs. I was on fire as he moved his body against me, new kinds of friction igniting something new and exotic inside of me.
I want him, I realized.
I had only kissed three other boys before, and never like this. Jack deepened the kiss, his tongue exploring into my mouth. It felt right. I thought about Brandi mentioning me losing my virginity before going to college. Suddenly that seemed like the perfect idea. The perfect way to say goodbye to this boy that had been in my life for so long.
If it was going to be anyone, I wanted it to be him.
“I want you,” I whispered. “I want to do this before I leave town.”
And then Jack tensed on top of me, pausing the kiss and leaning back. “What?”
“I want… to have sex with you,” I whispered. Saying the words took every ounce of willpower I had, but I got them out. That’s how badly I wanted Jack Franco in that moment.
Jack responded in the worst possible way: he leaned back on his knees. “I didn’t punch Darren just to get in your pants.”
“I didn’t say you did.”
“Then why now?” he asked. “Why are you suddenly throwing yourself at me?”
“I… I don’t know,” I said. “It was sexy. You’re sexy. What’s the problem?”
“You pushed me away in the pool.”
