Always wanted her. Never could. Fucked it up with my mouth every time. The words never come out right, but the love is definitely there. Right there. Always. We are always touching, always cuddling, always laughing together, always joking and flirting and not quite talking about our own sexual tension. We are always doing these things. Except when she's with one of the ten boyfriends she jumps between.
Them-- they are all older by about five years, which is quite a little bit when you are eighteen. They are all the bandy type. They are a bunch of nice Modest Mice, yet the most stuck up, self absorbed pricks I've ever met, and they are all friends with each other. In dark moments I think about her with one of them for half a second before I cringe or grunt or start talking out loud to myself to get it the fuck out of my head. In darker moments I think about her with all of them. Sometimes she takes them one at a time, sometimes all at once. At these times I think about it for hours. Sometimes I jack off. Sometimes I think about it until I get depressed and I call her and we talk for hours instead. But the worst times of all are when I see her and her boyfriend of the moment together and I think that maybe they love each other, and that maybe he's wondering why I talk to her for hours on the phone, and that he is standing in the way of true love.
Anyways that's Lila and me. We are friends, and all of the sexual tension in the world will not be broken to make us anything but friends. Either I say something stupid, or she says something calculatingly cold to keep me away before I get the chance. Plus she always keeps herself tied down with her boyfriends, even if it's just a two week fling. She is a monogamist in the worst way, but I wish she'd do the same to me. Though I'd love to date the girl that's been worth a thirteen year wild-chickenshit-goosechase (yes from age five!), a screw would do. Maybe we are both afraid of the intimacy it would bring, and that we could never turn back. And maybe I'm so chicken-shit because what I want more than anything is for her to do this as a favor. I need to lose my virginity, and she has been the most likely person to take it from me for so long that she is probably now the least likely. Plus, why would she want to take me down this path of teaching and giving and caring when she can get premium thrills from guys who are as experienced as she is?
She's too good. She's a nerd, she's a smart ass, she's funny as hell. She's pretty and petite and supremely cool. Her favorite Pokemon is Tangla, and if you don't know which one that is, you don't know her, and you probably wouldn't like her because she doesn't give a fuck what you think. And she's coming over right now to bring me camping with her friends. And-- she's single for this second in her adult life.
And I'm always single.

Doorbell rings. I say goodbye to my roommates and answer the door. No sooner have I opened the door than she reaches out and gives me a hug around my waist, pushing herself into me, burying her face in my chest. She pulls back, leaving a print of her pale foundation on my shirt. I always die.
"Hey boo boo," she says beaming up at me, a hand on her hip, fingering the dimple on her cheek. Man, she is corny today. She's got on a white short-sleeved blouse with ruffled sleeves that barely cowl her bony shoulders. Little roses dot it. Under it she's got a tiny white tank top on. No bra (no need, no tits). White high wasted shorts cover her barely there ass and she's got her white Keds on her tiny feet. She's got bleached pixie hair with a big black flower clip in it.
Camping huh? I take it all in with jerking eyeballs until my eyes meet hers. She is still looking at me the same way in the same pose. Has time stopped? I wish it would and I could stare into her shining green eyes forever. I can't. She's waiting for some reaction. I just chuckle.
"'Sappnin''? You look ready to camp," I say.
"God shut up asshole. You sound like my brother."
"Is that a good thing?"
"No," she says. But is it a good thing? I still wonder. She gets over my asshole comment and puts her arm around my waist on our walk out to the car. "Whatcha bring?"
"Hamburger meat, snacks, a handle of cheap Canadian whisky. All the shit you guys don't like," I tease. They are all vegetarians and wine drinkers. Except Rosa, she likes tequila, but only when she's letting loose.
"Aww nothing for me?"
"Well I--"
"Whatever. It doesn't matter. We'll just let you get drunk and who knows? Maybe we'll take advantage you..."
My mind goes wild. I can only imagine these three petite girls doing all their work on me. Lola is sitting backwards on my face, her round Latina butt hangs heavy, my nose in her hole; Derry straddles my middle, kissing the moans away from Rosa; and Lila rides me, taking command, telling Rosa and Derry what to do, how to do it. Maybe Lila even takes me in her ass when she's had enough in her pussy. All of my pornographic fantasies run through my head, because, well, I don't have anything real to go off of. I know it isn't real, but the possibility goads me.
At the same time though, this is an incredibly awkward thing that Lila said to me. She knows, without us ever having to discuss it, that I'm a virgin. Probably from my bashful, distant reactions to comments such as this one.
