Freshman (First Time 3)

Anna giggled softly as she curled her legs up under her in the bed. “Okay, you guys are fuckin’ hot.”

I grinned at my friend, feeling bashful again, but also still incredibly turned on by the fact that she’d just watched us make love and come like that.

She stood, grinning at us and shaking her head as she reached for the bathrobe hanging off the end of her bed. “Chris, I love you, and you better not get all weird on me just cause of this.” She winked at me; “And Mr. W- uh, sorry, Tyler?” She bit her lip and grinned shyly at him. Only this time, there wasn’t a single bit of jealousy in me at the look. “You are- wow; just, wow.” She bit her lip and shook her head again, grinning impishly at us as Tyler chuckled and wrapped his arms around me as he pulled me into his chest.

“So- I’m gonna go, and give you two some space.” Anna paused as she walked to the door and turned back. “Thank you,” she whispered at me, her cheeks glowing. “Really, thanks. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Yep, that was the Anna I knew and loved.

Later on, I did end up going back to the hotel room with Tyler that he’d booked for the night. I mean hey, it certainly beat cramming into a single-sized dorm room bed. We collapsed into the bed together - both of us clearly still glowing about the night as I snuggled back into his arms. I forced myself to just enjoy the moment, and not think that tomorrow morning he’d be leaving again and this whole fantasy would end.

“It’s not for forever, you know,” he murmured into my neck, as if reading my thoughts. His arms held me tighter, and we fell asleep as I pushed tomorrow from my mind.

“I’ve got a surprise for you.”

We were standing on the platform at South Station again, with arms around each other and looking to all the world like a couple saying a sad goodbye. I looked up at him, still doing me best not to cry like a dope in our last moments together. I mean I knew it wasn’t like this was the last time we’d ever see each other, but I also knew he wouldn’t be here the next day, or later that night when I knew I’d want him in my bed again. And besides that, when we did see each other again, it might be at home, with family and people who knew us around.

“So, uh, I’ve got some more business in a few weeks back up here in Boston.”

My mouth split into a huge grin as I looked up at him. Tyler definitely didn’t have any business here, it’d just been his pretense to come see me.

“Oh, business, hmm?” I grinned at him.

He winked. “I’ll figure something out.”

I melted into his arms just the same as he kissed me, never wanting to let him go.

A few days after Tyler left to go back home, I got my first hint of something being different, but I told myself it was nothing; these things happened all the time, right? And even a few days after that, I still told myself it was nothing to dwell on and nothing to worry about; it would come soon, definitely.

But a week after I was due for my period without one, I knew something was up.

The test was easy enough, once I’d cabbed to the other side of the city to buy one and then secreted it back to my dorm room. The hard part though, was going to be opening my eyes and looking at it now, and seeing what was going to come next.

Slowly, I cracked my eyes open and stared at the little stick in my hand. I could feel my heart start to beat faster, and a flush come into my cheeks as I gasped.

Ok, now things where going to get really interesting.

Just like that, with one little stick with a pink dot on it in my hand, my life suddenly got very, very complicated.

I remember spending the rest of that first day of knowing just in shock. I skipped classes, which was unheard of for me, and spent most of the day huddled in bed trying to lose myself in mindless Friends reruns.

The real scary thing was how alone I felt. I knew Tyler cared about me, but I wasn’t sure how he’d react if I just called him up with “surprise, I think I’m pregnant.” Besides, it wasn’t that long ago that he’d gotten out of a big commitment - namely marriage. Did Tyler Weaver even want kids?

Jesus Christ, what was I saying? Did I?

Te only other person who knew about us was Anna, which was, well, complicated. It wasn't like I'd been ignoring her since Tyler’s visit, when she'd openly watched us make love, it was really more that I was worried that things had gotten a little out of control that night. I'd been so caught up in the eroticism of realizing we were being watched, and I guess part of me was more of an exhibitionist than I'd ever really thought about.
