MEGAN
Movement catches my eye, and I look up to find Mom standing in the doorway of my room. I’m sitting in my chair, reading one of my favorite books for the millionth time.
“Hey, I thought you were taking Gabe to a birthday party?”
“I did but decided not to stay.” She walks further into my room, then sits down on my bed. A little niggle of worry makes my stomach turn.
“What’s up?” I ask, unable to wait for her to tell me.
“I got a call from your doctor a minute ago. They found some abnormalities in your blood work and want to do more tests.”
“Abnormalities? Like what?”
“They didn’t go into specifics over the phone. I made an appointment for next week unless your practice schedule changed.”
“No, we’re still only scheduled for those two days.”
She nods her head then stands. Her body is taut with tension, her movements giving away her nerves.
“How worried do I need to be?” If Mom is worried, then I should be, too.
“I’m honestly not sure, sis. They asked us to go to the hospital instead of to the office, which tells me it’s a pretty big deal. Until we talk with the doctor, I’m going to attempt to keep my worry at bay.”
My throat tightens at the idea of something being seriously wrong with me. What could it be? It’s been a week since I threw up at Cooper’s, which I’m pretty sure was just a stomach bug.
I can only nod my head in response. Mom leans in to kiss my forehead before walking out of my room. Worry has my stomach rolling, and I have to take a deep breath to keep myself from throwing up. I’m not sure how I’ll survive the next week without losing my mind. Enlisting my friends will help. I just hope I can hide the worry from them until I know more about what’s happening.
Calling Todd is my first distraction. Both his presence and the quiet escape of our secret spot will help keep me from freaking out.

“What’s that one?”
“Cassiopeia,” Todd says into my ear, causing a shiver to run down my spine. My back is against his chest as he leans against the pile of pillows we brought. “She was believed to have beautiful blonde hair and the kindest heart of all the gods.”
“You’re making all of this up, aren’t you?” I turn my head to look into his dark brown eyes, wishing the lamps were brighter so I could see the depth in those irises.
“Every word of it,” he jokes. His smile takes away every bad feeling still lingering in my body.
I grin at him, then turn back around to stare at the starry sky. I wish I knew the different constellations up there. It would make the world seem a little less vast, unknown. A little less scary.
“What’s on your mind?”
“Just wondering what could be out there right now that we’ll never even know about.” I’m too afraid to voice my true thoughts tonight. Until I know what’s really going on, I don’t think I could actually say the words. As if not vocalizing the problem will decrease the severity.
“Gotta be honest, I’d rather not know what’s out there.”
“Probably a good idea.” I turn back to look at Todd again. He looks at me with so much love, I have to fight my lungs to continue breathing. He told me he loved me the day after my stomach bug. He was so cute about it, too, fumbling his way through his words. All I could do was grin at him the whole time. I have little memory of telling him I loved him when we got home. Even without the memory, I’m glad I did. I never get tired of hearing him say it to me.
He leans down, pulling me into a deep, drugging kiss. One that has every nerve ending in my body lighting up and my core tightening. Over the few weeks we’ve been dating, we’ve done some heavy petting but have kept our clothes on each time. Usually, it’s because we’re not in a location safe enough to go any further.
Being out here alone takes the sensuality of this kiss to a whole other level. I turn my body to straddle Todd’s lap, my knees going to either side of his hips while his hands slide up my sides and over my breasts, making them ache.
Needing him more now than ever before, I grab the hem of my shirt, peeling it off my body.
“Fuck me,” Todd grates out. His eyes are on my boobs, still encased in my nude, sheer bra. He swallows hard. His intense gaze has my nipples pebbling.
“Touch me. Please, Todd. I don’t want to wait anymore.” My voice is breathy, needy as I plead for him to finally take me like we’ve both wanted for so long.
His calloused palms slide up my stomach to cup my breasts in his big hands. I grind down on his erection as he squeezes, causing a growl to escape this throat. He reaches around me to take off my bra, looking in my eyes for permission first. When I nod, he starts to undo the clasp. His fingers fumble around, unable to pull the hooks out.
He looks adorably flustered as his eyebrows furrow the longer he struggles. I laugh, the tension of the moment easing into something more familiar.
I reach behind me to undo the clasp for him while he shakes his head. “Like Fort Knox.” He grins, and I lean in to kiss him, happy we’re still us despite the seriousness of the moment.
His hands slide back around, cupping my breasts, and a cry falls from my mouth at the sensation. He continues kissing me, his tongue mimicking moves I hope to experience somewhere else. I grind against him, working to release the pressure building in my core.
Todd leans back, grabbing his shirt from behind his neck to take it off. As soon as it clears his head, his eyes land back on my boobs. I smile at how entranced he is with them. I mean, they’re not ginormous by any means, but they are a tad bit larger than other girls my age.
Once his shirt is off, I lean in to kiss him, pressing my chest against his. We both groan at the decadent feeling of being skin to skin, his arm wrapped around my waist.
Suddenly, he’s flipping us over so I’m on my back, his weight pressing into me.
He keeps kissing me, leaning on one elbow as his other hand surrounds my breast. His fingers pinch and pull at my nipple, sending bolts of ecstasy to my clit. I groan into his mouth, unsure of how to handle this amount of lust.
“Todd…” I moan. I’ve never felt so crazed. I don’t know how to tell him what I need.
“I’ve got you,” he whispers, moving from my mouth, down my neck, then across my chest. My hips lift up in an attempt to seek relief from the constant buzz of need.
He hovers over my right breast, his nose skimming the sensitive skin. I levitate off the ground when he sucks my nipple into his mouth. I’m going to lose my mind before this is over, aren’t I?
Something pulls at my shorts, forcing my eyes open to figure out what’s happening. Todd is staring at me intently, asking me if it’s okay to take off my shorts. I vigorously nod my head, making him smile at me as he unbuttons my shorts. I help him slide them, as well as my underwear, down my legs. When they’re off, he just stares for a moment.
I am completely naked and surprisingly comfortable. Watching Todd take me in has me grasping the blanket at my sides so he can get his fill.
“God, you’re beautiful,” he says, running a hand down his mouth. I stare at his body, noticing the bulge in his shorts. I swallow hard at the image of his dick in my hand, maybe even my mouth. The thought has a blush creeping into my cheeks while my tongue darts out to lick my lips.
“What are you thinking about?”
I bite my lip, suddenly embarrassed about the images in my head. Naturally, Todd doesn’t let me get away with keeping my silence. He leans over me, tugging my lip from my teeth with his thumb.
“Tell me.” The gentle look in his eyes has me opening up.
“I was staring at the bulge in your shorts, and I was wondering what it looked like. Then I thought about what it would feel like…in my hands…maybe even my mouth.”
Todd’s head falls to my chest, a groan tearing through his throat. “You’re going to kill me. I swear it,” he says, his voice gravelly.
His tongue runs over the slope of my breast then down my stomach as his hands move up my thighs. His nose runs through my soft, blonde curls while he kisses around my pubis. When his finger slides through my wetness, I bite my lip in lust and embarrassment. I’ve never been so wet, so overcome with desire.
His fingers continue exploring as his tongue swipes across my clit. My hips lift so high at the sensation he has to press down on them to hold me still. He keeps licking, changing the pressure until he finds one that makes me feel as if I might explode. It’s all too much and not enough. I don’t know how to go over the peak.
“Todd,” I moan, my fingers digging into his hair. It’s as if he knows exactly what my body needs because he presses one finger inside me, quickly adding a second. It only takes a couple of thrusts before my orgasm breaks, and I’m screaming out his name again.
I slowly come back down from the high, his fingers still moving inside me, spreading apart to widen my entrance.
“I’m ready, Todd. Please take me.” I stare into his dark eyes, heavily lidded with lust. He nods, lifting away from me to unbutton his shorts. He pulls them and his underwear down, revealing his heavy erection.
I bite my lip as I get my first look at him. A shiver of nerves passes through me as I take in his size. He’s much bigger than I was prepared for him to be. It also makes me want him more. My hand lifts as if it has a mind of its own, reaching toward him. He smiles, then leans back over me, his lips meeting mine. My taste is still on his lips when he kisses me. It’s surprisingly not gross.
My hand snakes down his side, and I grab ahold of his shaft to finally get a feel of him. My hand barely fits around him as I move it slowly up and down. His hips thrust into my hand a couple of times before he suddenly pulls back.
“I’m going to explode if you keep doing that,” he says, leaning off to the side of the blanket, coming back with a foil packet in his hand. He quickly slides the condom on, then leans back over me.
“Are you sure you want to do this? We can stop now if you want.”
Of course, he would rather hurt himself than have me do something I don’t want to do. It makes me love him even more.
I reach out again, wrapping my hand around his length. His breath hisses out at my touch while his hips drop toward mine as I direct him to my opening.
I bite my lip when my nerves take over. Seeming to read my mind, he leans in, kissing me soundly while gently thrusting forward. His fingers start pulling at my nipple, making my body light up from all of the stimulation. I begin to relax, allowing him to slip further inside me.
When he hits my resistance, he pulls back to look me in the eyes. I nod my head and smile as love shines in his eyes. A pinch of pain makes me wince, but Todd’s groan has me focusing back on him.
“You feel so good. I’m sorry this isn’t going to last long.” His hips begin to move in and out quickly, the rhythm taking away the pain until all I can feel is the two of us moving as one. Then, Todd’s face contorts as he thrusts a few final times, his body tightening and pulsing as he comes.
He collapses on top of me, breathing hard, hugging me close to his body. I wrap my arms around him and kiss the top of his head. I’ve never felt closer to him than I do right now as both of our bodies cool.
“I love you so much, Megan,” he says, lifting his head to look me in the eyes. “I will never be able to say how much it means to me that you let me be your first, and you should know, you were mine, too. That’s why it didn’t last as long as I would’ve liked.” His lips tip up in a sheepish smile.
I wasn’t sure if he was still a virgin. I didn’t have the guts to ask him before it happened. It wouldn’t have mattered either way, but knowing we were each other’s firsts makes the moment all the more special.
“Well, we’ll just have to keep practicing. Plus, I want to use my mouth on you next.”
He groans again, and I laugh. “You really will be the death of me, won’t you?”
He gently pulls out, which pinches a bit, then we clean up with the minimal resources we packed. We were a little unprepared for this to happen. At least we know for next time.
Once we have our clothes back on, we lay in each other’s arms, staring back at the night sky. “Over there is Hercules. He’s the strongest of all of the constellations, just like the movie. With his dark hair and strong muscles, he’s Cassiopeia’s favorite lover,” Todd says. I can hear the grin in his voice.
“Wait a second, your description sounds an awful lot like you.” I look up at him from my place on his chest.
“Well, my description of Cassiopeia is an awful lot like you, so it’s pretty fitting,” he teases. I can’t help but laugh at his ridiculousness.
I’ve never felt more connected to a human being than I do with Todd right now. He’s become more than my boyfriend, he’s my best friend, and while we may be young, I know he’s my forever.
