It was always the same. Unbutton the pants, remove the boxers, and hear giggling. Then, the awkward boner. It took a few years into college to piece together why the sneers and giggles turned him on. By that point, he felt far too awkward interacting with the opposite sex. All this to say-- Amanda asking him out took Leon by surprise.
The date went well, surprisingly enough. Amanda came dressed to impress with a tight top, and Leon managed to mentally push aside internal insecurities. Seriously. Not once did he think about the pathetic manhood lurking beneath his boxers.
What did one girl call it? Oh yeah, a microscopic mushroom with nothing to offer.
But none of that loomed at the back of his mind at all.
Instead, he focused on Amanda. Gorgeous Amanda who invited him back to her place. Gorgeous Amanda who rubbed lewdly against him on the Uber ride home.
Then, the inevitable happened. The hurried walk to her apartment, clothes removed, and then, the reveal.
Leon stood there, pants pooled around his ankles. His breath hitched in anticipation. Surely, surely, this couldn't ruin another evening, not with all the fun they had on the way up here. He attempted the will away the goosebumps as cold air prickled against his exposed form.
Amanda's eyes traveled downward.
This was it. He felt it and braced himself for her reaction. He never realized his fears could become worse. What started as a giggle bubbled into full-blown laughter.
