Freshman year was going great and getting greater. I was also facing a dilemma.
I'm loving college. After being admitted to my number one choice, I was settling into my classes. My roommate and I are getting along. And, if that weren't good enough, something was happening with his girlfriend and me. Let me explain.
At first I wasn't sure Peter and I would work out as roommates. He is an earth science major, with a concentration in ecology. He is really a nerd and I am a jock and English major. I was dubious of all his books, computers and electronic devices and really geeky wardrobe. But, I soon found out he had a great sense of humor and was a nice guy. We traded life stories and began to become friends. The challenge was how to handle a slightly odd relationship I was developing with his girl.
The tricky situation began in late fall. We had been on campus over two months. I had just returned from my 5 mile run. Pete was out early on this Saturday. He and some others from a science course were out looking for birds and cataloguing what they found. Pete said he hoped he could see something interesting to warrant the early rise on a chilly day.
I had stripped off my damp running clothes and was just standing there in my jock, when I heard the door open behind me.
"See anything interesting," I called over my shoulder as I bent to get pick up my discarded clothes.
"I have now," replied a female voice. I bolted up and spun around to see Mary, Peter's girlfriend standing in the doorway.
I was frozen in place, standing there with my sweaty jock barely covering my private parts and my pubic hair spilling out all sides.
"Geez, Mary, I didn't know you were coming over." I didn't know if I should cover up with my hands, but they wouldn't shield any more than my jock.
"Yeah, I can see you probably weren't expecting me. Or were you?"
"No, honest," I blurted out, "I wouldn't, uh, like be like, you know, well, not dressed."
"I know, Jimmy, I'm just yanking your chain. I wanted to get some reading done and my roommate is in one of her manic music-blasting moods. I hope you don't mind."
Mary let the door close behind her and dropped her backpack and peeled off her sweater.
"Uh, no, I was just going to take a shower."
"Cool, I'll just camp out here. Don't let me bother you."
She crossed in front of me and plopped on Pete's bed, pulling books out of her pack.
I needed to go to my dresser to get my towel hanging on the back of the door. To do so would mean exposing my naked butt to her. I hesitated and she looked at me and smiled.
"It's Ok, Jimmy, I already saw your cute ass. Go ahead and take your shower."
Still feeling a bit strange, I figured if she didn't mind, why should I?
Turning my back to her, I picked up my dirty clothes and walked over to my closet, dropping them in the laundry basket to join my other soiled things. I hesitated for a couple seconds and then peeled off my jock and dropped it in the basket. I was now totally nude in the same room as my roommate's girlfriend. It felt weird, but also a bit erotic.
I still had to get my towel. I half turned and walked to the door where it was hanging. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Mary looking. I didn't know if she could see my dick from that angle. I pulled the towel around me, slipped on my flip-flops and picked up my shaving kit.
I turned and told her I'd be back in a few minutes.
She looked up and down at me, clad in just a towel, and smiled.
In the shower stall, the moment I soaped my dick I felt the effects of the erotic situation I just experienced and became hard.
"God," I thought, "I must be some kind of perv getting a kick out of Mary seeing my ass and being naked in the same space with her."
I shampooed my hair, washed my entire body, and still had a raging hard-on. I gave in and stroked until I achieved release and let the poor guy go back down.
I wrapped the towel back around me and was in my room in seconds. Mary looked up from her book. Again she eyed me from top to bottom.
"You have a nice bod, Jimmy. Pete said you were athletic, but I didn't imagine you'd look so good."
"Uh, thanks, Mary," I stammered.
I now had to decide how to get dressed. I guess I could try to pull on my underwear while still wearing the towel. But, I recalled the charge I got when I was standing naked with Mary in the room. Hell, she said she'd already seen my ass and didn't seem to mind.
I turned my back to her, stood in front of my dresser, undid my towel and dropped it on the floor, exposing my bare backside to her.
"What are you reading?" I asked as I ran my fingers through my hair giving it some shape.
"John Irving's A Prayer for Owen Meany. We have to do a report on it by next week. Maybe I should switch to The Naked Ape."
I felt blood rush to my groin. Here I was totally naked and having a regular conversation with a girl. I half turned and looked over my shoulder. Mary had laid the book in her lap and was looking at me. By the look on her face, I thought maybe I had gone too far and pissed her off.
I felt a rush of panic. "Oh, sorry, Mary, I didn't mean to offend you, I'll put the towel back on."
"God, you're not offending me. I'm kidding. You have a great ass, Jimmy. I was just admiring it, so don't bother with the towel on my account."
"Thanks," I murmured.
I turned back to the dresser and dried my front. I spread my legs and dried my dick and balls, enjoying the touch and the heightened sexual tension I felt.
I bent over to dry my shins and feet with my legs spread apart.
"Uh, Jimmy, I can see your balls," she said.
"Oops."
Mary was so matter-of-fact that I was sure she wasn't offended. She confirmed my feeling when she said, "They're nice."
I stood up and closed my legs. I was at half-mast now. I rubbed the towel on my shoulders and then my ass. I dropped it and pulled out a pair of boxers. I slipped them on, picked up the towel and hung it on the closet door. I turned toward Mary as I crossed to my bed to get to my jeans lying there.
"Sorry about that, Mary."
"Again, no problem. I'll never complain about looking at a nice naked guy," she said with a smile and added, "Your balls are big. It was cool seeing them sway between your legs."
I didn't know what to say so I simply pulled on my jeans and plopped on my bunk, not bothering with a shirt.
"Do you always say what you think?"
"I don't see the point of lying," she replied. "Hell, you were standing there, I could see your balls, I liked seeing your balls, and I said so. No big deal. I also like looking at you naked from the waist up. You have a sexy chest and killer abs."
I was happy that my jeans were hiding my now completely stiff dick. Changing the subject, I said, "That is one of my favorite Irving novels."
"Yeah, I didn't like it at first, but now I'm really into it. I'm not an English major like you, so it's a bit more work to understand everything that's both on the surface and then deeper."
I smiled. Looking at her lying on the bed I flashed back to when the three of us met. It was the second week on campus and there was a mixer for freshmen. It really was lame, but Pete wanted to go. We were standing around talking to a couple other guys from our dorm floor, when he grabbed my arm.
"Oh my God," he whispered, "I think I'm in love."
I followed his gaze to a group of three girls standing on the other side of the room.
"Which one?" I asked.
"The brunette in the middle," he said.
The object of his desire was the shortest of the three. She had shoulder length dark hair and bright blue eyes. She was laughing at something and I could see her white teeth under a slightly protruding upper lip caused by an overbite. She looked cute when she smiled. She was not knock dead gorgeous, but had a certain quality I could appreciate. She was dressed in jeans and a blue oxford cloth shirt, untucked. My first impression was they she was a little pudgy. Again, nothing that was unattractive, but also not like the tall, thin blond next to her that send a little signal to my groin.
"Let's go talk with them," I offered.
"God, I can't. What would I say? I'd just make a fool out of myself."
"Come on, Pete. That's what these things are for, so we can meet other freshmen. She's not going to bite."
I semi-dragged Peter across the room. As we approached, the tall blond and the other girl, split off. The brunette eyed us approaching and waited with a half-smirk, half-smile.
We stopped in front. I said hi and she replied the same way.
"I'm Jimmy and this is Peter," I offered her my hand.
She shook and said, "I'm Mary."
Peter stood frozen with an idiotic grin on his face.
"I hope we didn't scare away your friends," I said trying to get some conversation going.
"Well, they're not my friends. We just met. I don't think they even noticed you guys coming over. They were headed to the ladies room."
I nodded. "Want to get a drink?"
"Sure," she said.
There was a table with soft drinks a few feet away and we all grabbed a plastic cup.
Mary and I chatted about the concept of a mixer, what dorms we were in, majors, what else we'd seen on campus and some other fairly inane stuff.
All the while, Peter just stared at her grinning.
Finally, Mary looked at me and said, "Does he speak?"
I laughed and nodded. "Sometimes. I just think he is struck dumb at your countenance. He told me he's in love."
Mary laughed and said, "Struck dumb? Countenance? So, I guess you really are an English major."
"Guilty as charged," I replied.
"And the struck dumb one?"
"Science."
