Don't say it because that means admitting that it's worth risking rejection and embarassment; don't say it because if you do it's not just a matter of fucking, it's a matter of promises. And promises can be painful to keep. Sexually they teach it in the classroom now, but emotionally it's on our own that we learn about protection. Better a hastily broken hymen between classes than a slowly, langorously, beautifully broken -- ---------- I remember some others, particularly the ones I was cruel to. The summer after; a few times I went to visit her. I'd walk semi-announced into the cramped little box of a house, crane my neck around as I clambered up the stairs, tentatively call out her name, then her mother's. Usually no answer; usually I'd wait an hour or two. Once I walked in, walked up the stairs, heard bedsprings creaking, heard her moving and keening, couldn't stop myself rounded the corner: She was up on all fours on the bed by the window ass held high head held high back arched between the two like the cables of a bridge but this bridge was moving, moving back and forth, cables flexing, head tossing, arms and hips giving a little, tension, compression, torsion all driven from the rear legs spread wide thighs pressed apart secretions running down action and re-action the force providing the accelleration applied through a driving rod like the side-rods on a steam enging this penis this flesh-piston appearing and vanishing as its owner knelt behind her working her back and forth with one hand held around pressing at her crotch from the front, fingers running back and forth over her clitoris and labia as if working at the keyboard of an organ flesh-piston legs spread wide stomachs clenching breasts swinging back and forth mad ecstatic bridge the air in the room smelled like cunt and semen thirteen or fourteen I think he looked, she liked them younger and older it was maybe twenty seconds I left before they saw me watching but she'd known of course I'd be there. Flesh-piston back arched breasts swinging fingers working at her crotch cunt and semen six hour drive home without the courage to skid off the highway and be a statistic, a statistic with one hand on my cock and Schubert on the tape deck but back home of course one can always find a party and a girl who'll go after innuendoes it was a quick one that night and she said she liked it rough quick to the bolts in the bedframe quick to the teasing and the tasting and the denial quick to the whip and the wax and the brink of the safeword and back again she had never been to these places before I didn't get off, not with my cock, she was useless for that but the pain, flowing from me to her and as I tore at her body my load was lessened the pain: therapy for me, self-realization for her. And inevitably she thought she'd fallen in love when it was all over the light was coming up glaring into my eyes over the curtains I hit her one more time not gently and saw the expectation rise in her eyes like nectar in a wineglass "Look, just get the fuck out, you're worthless." Nectar from the eyes falls easily. On her way out "You bas--" the command look; she will wish she did not need it so. "Don't" say it. ---------- -- heart. --
