Girl in the Shadows (Shadows 2)

then down to my neck. I moaned softly and lay back. I

let him start undressing mee. He wasn't as awkward

about it this time and he paused periodically to kiss

inc again on the lips, the neck, and then my naked

breasts,

"One second," he said, rose, and went to the

bedroom door. "I'm not taking any chances on that

doll." he told me, and closed the door.

I laughed. In the shadows he undressed and

then he prepared and returned to me. I'm going to

make love. I thought, I'm going to make love with a

man willingly. It was funny, but before we began. I

couldn't help wondering if Brenda had ever tried to be

with a man and if that was when she'd been convinced

she'd rather be with a woman.

There was no doubt in my mind that this was Tyler's first time. too. Once again, he w

as somewhat awkward and clumsy, not sure of whether or not he was hurting me or not. He got excited quickly and it all seemed to be over before it had really begun. I felt terribly disappointed. He realized it and kept

apologizing.

"Just wait," he said. "Give me a few minutes.

I'll be better. It will be better."

I didn't know what to say. I wasn't that sure

about how it was supposed to be anyway. He lay next

to me, talking, telling me about how much he had

looked forward to tonight and being with me. but I

couldn't help feeling he was trying desperately to keep

me interested in him and in us.

"You must think I'm such a fool," he said. He

sounded very angry now and I wasn't sure he was

directing all that anger at himself.

"No, it's all right."
