When Betty told me that kissing was as far as she went, I thought she was joking. I mean seriously, I really did. I thought that she was going to be one of those girls that liked to pretend that they were so innocent when really, they would get down on their knees in seconds if asked. It took a little bit of time for me to realize that she was not that kind of girl. When she said that she didn't do that kind of thing, I believed that she really didn't.
That left me in a strange position, though. It was a position that I had never been in before. Most of the women that I found myself with, used sex as a sport much like I did. I had never been around someone who saw it as something else far more important.
It was a little quiet on the way up to the summit. Partially it was my fault, because I didn't know what the hell to say to her. The whole time I have been dreaming about what I would do to her body and now that wasn't even an option.
It saddened me a little bit almost immediately, but then I thought about it differently and decided that maybe it was the best thing that could happen. I already felt like she was so different, so it made sense that we would do things differently as well.
By the time we got to the summit, I was looking at it as a gift, instead of a curse. It might be a little tough, but I was for sure that it would be worth it in the end. She would be worth it. Betty was damn sure worth the wait.
“So, can I ask you a question?”
She agreed and I could tell that she was bracing herself for something that she wasn’t going to like. Most likely she knew what I was going to ask. It was of course the only thing on my mind at the moment.
“Of course. What did you want to know?”
“Do you mind if I ask you why you haven't, you know, went further with a man?”
She looked at me a little funny, and then Betty told me that it just had never been the right time.
“I guess I wanted the first time to be magical. I know that sounds silly in this world that doesn't even take it seriously anymore, but I think it would mean more if I actually cared about the person. So, that hasn't happened yet, and so I have not done it.”
She made it sound so easy, but I could only imagine the temptation that she had through the years. She was beautiful. However, how was any man about to date her for too long, without putting their hands on her? How was that even possible? They're obviously stronger men than I was.
She was extremely embarrassed from the question and her answer, so I didn't ask anymore. I wanted to, really badly. I wanted to know the who, when, where, why. I wanted to know it all, but it was just going to have to be something that I found out later.
“That was probably very hard to tell me. I'm glad that you did. It helps me to get to know you better.”
Betty gave me a skeptical look. “Yeah, I'm sure that's how you're feeling right now, excited that I told you.”
She was full of cynicism and told me she didn't believe anything I said. She was right, how could I be excited about this? The last thing I wanted was for me to want a woman that wasn’t even ready for what I had to offer. It was going to make everything more complicated, and I was going to have blue balls a whole lot more. I wasn’t looking forward to either one of those things.
I wasn't going to say that, though. Instead I told her that it was just different. I didn't know very many people that wanted to wait.
“It's weird, I know.”
“I wouldn't say that it's weird, just different.”
She just kind of sighed. “I think you’ve said different like five times. Trust me, I know it's weird. I have gotten a lot of grief from it, if you can believe it.”
I bet she had. I bet that a lot of men that found that out about her were done. I don't know if there was an exact reason why I felt any differently about it. But I did, I felt like she was going to be worth it. Whether I would feel that way about it being told to me from someone else, I am not sure.
What I was sure of, though, was how beautiful she was standing in the sun. She had an ethereal glow about her and maybe it was because of what I knew about her, but it felt like it was just another sign. Everything that had worked before was not going to work this time. This time, I was going to have to figure out another way to convince her of how best to go forward.
“I don't think it's weird, I think it is brave. I'm sure that you've gotten a lot of flak for your decision, but I'm glad that you haven't changed it. There is nothing wrong with waiting for the right one.”
She had this grin and then she asked me if that's what I had done.
“No, complete coward here. I can't say that I have waited. But what I will say is, there's a good side to it, too. It feels really good.”
“Yeah, I can see that.”
“It’s also a good thing for you, too.”
She shook her head like she didn’t believe me.
“And how is that?”
I leaned a little closer and gave her a kiss.
“Because when you finally decide that you're ready, I will know quite well how to make you feel good. I am going to make you come so hard, you’ll wonder why you waited so long.”
I saw her shiver and that was as good of an answer as I was going to get. Maybe this between us didn't have to be complicated. I liked to think not anyway.
All of a sudden, I was an optimist.
