Maybe it just wasn't going to happen. A good portion of Jade's time at Ari's was just talking. They talked about a lot of things. Like the time he yelled at his sister in the hallway at school where she once upon a time was the music teacher, "Do you do tricks in bed?" Of course, he was only in kindergarten then.
"I mean, that's what I thought they were doing," Ari was all bright-eyed about it now. Like she might think he was funny. Of course, she wanted to be on his sister's side. What a brat, she thought. But she didn't say anything. Still, he must have been a weird kid.
Not that he was really telling him anything new. No, there were rounds of cooking then cleaning, and then those moments on the couch.
She kept focusing on the ring.
"We don't have to do it in the bedroom, you know?" He smirked one late afternoon. Of course, she looked at him shocked.
"What are you talking about?" He wanted to have sex in the kitchen?
"God, no." He winced, but she knew he liked the idea. She could see it rolling through her head, bumping into all sorts of things. "How about in the shower?"
"I don't think you're ready for that," she shrugged. "Besides I like hot water more than you do." Yes, they were not in sync about anything. Especially, if they talked about it.
Of course, they'd gone through all those other matters most lovers never find time to discuss, like birth control and what side of the bed you like to sleep on. Oh, and must you wear socks to bed?
She didn't find it sexy, but since it was so damn cold out as in subzero temps and his place was a lot colder than one would ever anticipate, she really wasn't too worried about anything sexy. Ari also had an underwear drawer full of Sonic the Hedge Hog underpants.
"That's all you wear?" She wanted to know.
"Well, that's what I always get from my sister. She knows I have loved Sonic the Hedge Hog since I was little." Ari said about the matter. "Does this mean I'm getting underwear from you for Christmas?"
So she got him black underwear. He found the jocky style undies hilarious but wore them for her immediately. That's when she told him the black socks needed to go.
"But it's cold, my feet get so cold," he told her her feet were cold too. "Let's just wear socks, OK?"
"OK." At the time she didn't think they would go for it. as Ari had said many times. But it was late, and he kept kissing her all over the place. Actually, she wasn't sure when it all started. It was like he'd started without her though he assured her he didn't.
After a twist here and turn there, and hiding completely under the covers it happened as if a missile was shooting off into space. If she wasn't careful, she might miss it. But everything was locked and loaded. Ari stayed still for what seemed forever even if he said it was only two minutes. He looked at his watch. Before she knew it she was sitting up straight, staring right at him, legs possibly around each other.
"I think they do this India," he said. "I can't believe I got it right on the first try." Their skin met and he hugged her with a kiss on the neck. It must have been sex yoga, but the more she relaxed the more she understood the jest of it. Evidently, it was good for both of them.
Of course, later that night when all was quiet, and they'd turned away from each other after the marathon of lovemaking, it finally donned on Jade..they had both been virgins.
Hola, creo que al traducirlo algo se pierde. Me ha parecido el relato de una primera vez para ambos, es así... las primeras veces suelen tener algo de caótico, de mágico, de entrañable, de olvidar...

Ari's anecdote about embarrassing his sister is funny and strange, and Jade's reaction is priceless. Plus, sharing such a personal story is a great setup for first-time sex. Speaking of which, I was surprised to find out that Ari was a virgin too. He seemed so worldly. You're forever the queen of the plot twist!
Great chapter. I think with anything the more relaxed we can feel about it, the more we can enjoy it.
