I smirked slightly and took a sip of beer. Hester nodded with a chuckle and had a sip, then said:
"Yeah, girls don't need anyone to tell them what to do."
"Sure don't," I agreed with a smile, wondering if I could ask what happened her sophomore year. It seemed almost appropriate to ask, our talking about girls' not having to have any experience to do it the first time. I took deeper breath and remarked:
"Like your sophomore year."
Hester gave me brief, more intense glance, then snorted with nod, smiling. Then she chuckled again and said:
"And most of us - three of us, we were four in the room - had only heard about it, that some guys did it. Oh, don't think we all immediately did that evening."
"I wasn't, yet, but the fourth girl had?"
"Are we going to have supper?" Hester asked.
"If you tell, and we have two more beers."
"If you want to hear?"
I nodded with a grin, and we started fixing supper. Hester began her story, continuing it as we ate and had our second beers. I interjected a few comments, but they were extraneous to her story.
* * *
Yeah, well, it was the second weekend sophomore year. I had a new roommate, a girl taking the same major. We didn't know each other that well, but thought we would get along better than with our freshman roommates. The other two were also roommates, but seemed a less likely pair. We hardly knew them, of course. It was Whitney who suggested we sneak a couple of six packs in the dorm. Her roommate, Rose, was quite young, having started college just before her 17th birthday, obviously intelligent. We knew who she was, since the student paper had mentioned that she was the youngest girl in our class.
So there we were, illicitly drink beer in the dorm, in their room. We chatted about ourselves, getting acquainted, then talking about boys, of course. I don't think that we directly said that we had slept with one, but you know how girls talk, not wanting to admit they had done less than what it sounded like the others had. Rose was quite reticent about that, just nodding.
When we were well into our second beers, Whitney grinned at us and asked what we did, when we didn't have a date: "or when you have had one?"
My roommate, Leslie, and I had both made it sound like we had slept with someone. I had. I don't think either of us had recognized that the other had masturbated. I had, but we glanced at each other with sheepish expressions, then smirking and nodding. Rose had an uncomfortable expression and was blushing. "Nomen est omen." If she hadn't yet slept with a boy, she knew what Whitney was asking about and was embarrassed that she also played with herself.
Whitney grinned, and remarked:
"I knew you all do. I do too, of course, when I'm alone."
Rose looked like she was about to say something, but didn't, still blushing. Why didn't I look to see if her nipples had popped out, like yours did a while ago? They must have, and so that we could see them; she had nice ones and nice round breasts.
Hmm? I'm getting ahead of my story, but it's obvious that I eventually did see them, not just see them. Why do the most innocent looking young girls have such good figures? Where was I?
Whitney smirked and took a better drink of her beer, then said:
"There's something better than that, ... not what boys can do, if they're good, of course. Oh, they can do that too, if they want to. Don't know one that has yet, however."
Rose looked startled at her roommate's remark; since in our previous talk, none of us had been so openly direct. I wasn't immediately sure what Whitney was talking about, but when Leslie shrugged with raised eyebrows, and Whitney smirked again, I understood that she must be talking about oral sex. Till then, I had just heard the expression, not envisioning what people actually did.
Why had she mentioned it to us, however, especially since she had said that no guy had with her yet? Apparently Rose didn't have an inkling. She blurted out: "What? What else could they do?"
Then Whitney looked surprised, while Leslie and exchanged glances, both raising our eyebrows. This was going to be interesting, but there was still the question of why Whitney had raised the subject with us. I could have understood, if she had wanted to brag a little - a lot. Had she just heard more about oral sex than we had? Needless to say, if I hadn't really thought about it, I certainly hadn't contemplated that it was something girls could do with each other.
Whitney replied to Rose's question in a conciliatory tone: "You know, oral sex."
It took a moment for Rose to find her tongue, blushing and then whispering:
"People really do that?"
She wasn't stupid, just inexperienced and shy. Leslie and I exchanged glances again, now smirking at the confirmation that we had understood, and also at Rose's question. I still didn't know why Whitney had raised the subject. She murmured:
"If they want to, ... it's supposed to be good."
Rose's eyebrows shot up, as she flushed deeply. It suddenly occurred to me that she could have read more about sex than I had - very little. Hm-hmm! And I remember that her nipples had poked out again. Yeah, she was interested in sex, just still too young to have much experience, and she had been paying attention. The so good student then replied:
"'It's supposed to be good"? You said before that it's 'something better'."
"It is," Whitney admitted quietly, now also blushing a little.
Rose, the so attentive student, persisted:
"You said a boy hadn't - yet."
Her remark suddenly awakened to me the possibility that girls could have oral sex with each other. Whitney looked like she had been caught. That surprised me, since she had started all this. If that was what she was talking about, wanting to tell us, she must have anticipated that there would be questions. She took a last drink of her beer, having to tilt it up. She glanced at each of us and then murmured: "Not a boy."
I had been right, but Rose was nonplussed. After a moment, she asked: "A girl?!"
Whitney just nodded. Rose caught her breath and then asked: She did that to you, ... and it was 'something better'?"
Whitney nodded again. I was sure now that Rose somehow had a better idea than I did about oral sex, wondering how much Leslie knew about it. I didn't want to glance over at her, but did, when she asked: "And it was better? Did you too?"
Whitney nodded again, this time with a wry smile. The three others of us looked at each other with wide eyes. Then we stared at her, when she said:
"That's good too."
"You like to do it?!" Rose blurted out.
It could have been my question, since by now I had a better image of what oral sex could be like, but Rose apparently already had one, her asking so quickly. Whitney nodded with a shrug and a little smile. Rose looked surprised at Whitney's silent admission, but then also shrugged, as she glanced at Leslie and me with an expression that suggested that she was pleased with Whitney's response, as though it confirmed whatever she had read about oral sex.
I thought I was my turn to join the conversation, asking the obvious question: "With whom, a girl here last year?"
Rose and Leslie nodded in support of my question. Whitney shook her head, but smiled, then asked if we had more beer. We did, and with fresh beers, she told:
"Not here, last summer. My cousin was staying with us for an internship as a grad student at Berkeley, sleeping in my sister's bed, who is married now. Well, I guess you can remember my first question, about what we do alone. We weren't alone, but I was trying not to let her notice what I was doing, but she wasn't."
Leslie and I glanced at each other with smirks. Rose nodded with a slight blush, but smiled. Whitney returned her smile and said:
"Better if we don't have to try to hide it now. So there we were, and as you can imagine now, she suggested that we could do something even better. I was a little shocked, like I guess you all were, but if she wanted to. She did. It was better, better than what the first guys had done, and, well, if she liked to do it, I could do it too. Said it before, that's good too."
Whitney looked at us, then more directly at Rose, while Leslie and I glanced at each other, each of us with a questioning raised eyebrow. To keep it short, we all finished our beers, and that night Leslie and I made no pretense of trying to hide what we were doing. Needless to say - again - we did it a lot better than before: not having to suppress our moans; enjoying hearing each other's.
We didn't mention what else Whitney had suggested we could do, but the following nights - not every night - when we were "enjoying ourselves", we sometimes told each other what our fingers were doing. Hm-hmm! We also said that we liked how they tasted, I guess Leslie was also thinking about what Whitney had suggested. I sure was.
Of course, we saw Whitney and Rose every day, not always together, but when I saw both of them, and they both smirked slightly, I had to wonder if Whitney had talked Rose into letting her do it, lick her pussy - not to mince words. That evening together, although Rose had at first seemed so unknowingly innocent, later she had seemed to have had a better idea than I did about what Whitney had been talking about.
Smirking: when one of them met Leslie and me and smirked, we both also did, exchanging glances. I guess that went on both ways for a couple of weeks. One night, when, when Leslie and I both had our fingers in our pussies, she asked: "Do you think they do?"
I was wrong before, that we hadn't mentioned that, but now Leslie had. I didn't know, of course, but replied:
"Do you want them to have?"
