Charlotte 8
As we continued to relax on the couch, the back of my mind kept returning to the appalling thought that I was really comfortable doing this. I was a married college professor (okay--associate professor) and I was lying on a couch with one of my students, buck naked after an afternoon of amazing sex. Her body was warm against mine, and her chestnut hair was tucked back behind her ears, still damp from the shower we had shared and from the exertions of the last hour. Her thigh lay on top of mine, her perfect little breast pressed into my arm, and her light brown eyes were smiling at me as we murmured happily to each other.
After about 5 minutes, though, she seemed to realize as well how unreal this situation was.
"I know this isn't okay," she said, her eyes turning serious. "Why does it feel so good, though?"
"I was just thinking the same thing, Char. I wish we could do this forever, and I know we can't."
"How long can you stay?" she asked plaintively.
"I have to leave in an hour and a half," I told her, smiling wistfully across at her.
She absorbed that news without saying anything, thinking, I'm sure, about the implications of our relationship and the realities of our separate worlds.
"You know," she said at last, "I kind of started this because you said I was sexy."
"I know, Char...but I let it happen because...well, because it's true. You're SO fucking sexy and you have no idea. I couldn't stop myself from telling you that first day, and I didn't want to stop myself from showing you when you asked me why, and here we are."
She had grown a lot since that first painful confession. The awkward young woman was still there, but she had gained some confidence in the last few weeks because she was starting to realize exactly how sensual and sexual she was. Her virginity was a memory, and she knew how to please a man in ways she had only seen on videos before last month. Still, Charlotte was a novice on the path she would follow for the rest of her life and I had somehow taken on the role of mentor in this bizarre situation.
"I just wanted to know..." she said before her voice trailed off.
"You DO know, Charlotte. You know what you're doing now, and I hope you know how amazing you are."
"I kind of do," she admitted. "I just feel like there's so much more I don't know."
"That's a lifetime journey, babe," I told her with an indulgent smile. "If you stay true to yourself and stay away from guys who just want to use you because you're beautiful and innocent and sexy, you'll be able to learn and find out what you like and keep this whole process growing until you meet the person you want to stay with. But we both know it can't be me, and we both know that we can't keep doing this, right?" I asked gently.
"I know," she whispered. "I just feel like there's so much more!"
"There IS!" I told her, still smiling. "But you don't have to do it all at once. I didn't. It took a bunch of girlfriends teaching me what to do, and it took a lot of time to get comfortable with who I am."
"That's what I want," she said in a soft voice that almost broke my heart.
"You'll get there, Char. You will. And I'm so glad and grateful that I got you started. I just...
"I know," she interrupted. "I know that you're married, and you're my teacher. I know all that, and I get it. I'm not some idiot who's going to fall in love with a professor and get all stupid. I just wish that I could...that WE could keep doing this until I felt like I'd learned everything. Is that wrong?"
"No," I told her immediately. "It's not wrong. It's not possible, but it's not wrong to want something. And besides," I said in a lighter tone, "you've learned SO much in the last few weeks that I don't know what's left for you to do!"
I tried a bright smile and a quick squeeze of her little ass, but she didn't give up.
"I get that," she said as she looked me in the eye directly. "Can I be honest with you?"
"Jesus, Charlotte--I thought we WERE being honest with each other. I just want you to be real with me as well--and real with yourself about what we're doing here!"
"Okay, Mr. Robertson. I will be real. I know I can't have THIS forever," she said with some urgency in her voice as she nodded toward our connected bodies and squeezed my limp cock for emphasis. "And I know we're not in love or anything. But you were my first in a lot of things. The first guy I showed myself to. The first guy I was honest with about...sex and stuff. The first guy who kissed me for real. The first guy who..."
"Charlotte," I interrupted in return, "I"m the first guy you did a lot of things with, and that's amazing. I'll never forget that, and I know you won't either."
"Shut up for a minute!" she said, pulling back and looking straight into my eyes.
"Sorry," I said.
"I GAVE you my virginity," she continued, her face calm but serious. "I gave you my first blowjob and swallowed your cum. You went down on me and made me cum like that for the first time. You came inside me and made me realize how much I liked it. In the shower, you jacked off looking at me and that was so fucking hot that I can't believe it. You even fucked my tits...and that's how this all got started, talking about how I didn't have any tits to flash at my stupid history teacher!"
She was getting a little heated, but I thought to myself that she needed to get this off her chest. I nodded and smiled a little, but didn't interrupt her again--she was clearly on a roll.
"So before we stop," she said in a level voice as she regained control of herself, "I want to make sure I know everything I need to know to be happy."
"Charlotte," I said helplessly, "I want you to be happy...I hope you know that. I just don't want to create a situation that makes us both sad."
"You won't," she said in that same even tone. "I won't let you."
"That's good," I told her sincerely. "No guy should really be telling you what to do or how to be happy."
