I woke up the next morning to an email from Liz:
"I wanted to let you know that you did a wonderful job last night. It was a lot of fun. I've never done this with a student before, and wasn't planning on doing this with you. I had only planned to kiss you, to actually help you figure out your sexuality, but I got caught up. You surprised me by asking for more. I'm intrigued with you, and want to continue 'tutoring' you, but I need to be sure it's what you want"
Wow, she has never done this before. I promptly hit reply:
"Liz
Yes, this is absolutely what I want. I want to learn everything you want to teach me. I want to explore everything with you.
Your Eager Student
Julia"
I still couldn't quite believe that she was letting me touch her. I mean, kissing her was more than I could have ever hoped for. I will be happy that we have this, whatever it is, and not get carried away with what else it could mean.
The rest of the day felt surprisingly normal. I don't know why, but after the past few days with Liz, it felt like the world should have changed somehow. I had changed. I might be a lesbian now. I definitely knew i liked sex with women.
"Wait, does what we've done count as sex? They call it oral sex, but am I still a virgin if there wasn't penetration? Is it possible to be penetrated by a woman?" These questions floated in and out of my head all day, as everything around me continued as normal.
Seeing Liz at rehearsal gave me butterflies in my stomach. She was so very sexy. I could have just stared at her, lost in thought for hours, but there was work to do. Tech weekend was just two days away.
Rehearsal tonight was pretty much a run through. I took notes on the things that still needed to be finished, so I could send emails to the crew. Liz took notes of places where she still needed to coach actors. The show was looking good, and I was excited to see it come together.
After rehearsal, I wanted to stay and spend more time with Liz, but I had a paper due the next day, and I had been so distracted with Liz that it still needed a lot of work. So, I headed back to my dorm, and got to work, forcing myself to focus, and stop thinking about Liz.
.........
The next day was a busy one, and I hardly had any time to think. Before I knew it, I was walking into rehearsal again.
Liz had set aside this final rehearsal before tech to focus in on the details, coaxing the actors to give just a bit more, and working out the last of the rough patches. I, thankfully, had little to do, and got to just enjoy watching her work.
She was so beautiful when directing; immersed in a different world, helping people to see the vision she saw. She was so much more than beautiful. I wanted to spend hours talking to her, learning how her mind worked. I wanted to lie under the stars with her, slowly making love to her, throughout the night.
I was so lost in my daydreams that before I knew it, rehearsal was over. I walked the actors out, and locked the door. Liz looked exhausted. I came up behind her as she was packing up her stuff. I wrapped my arms around her and nuzzled her neck.
She turned around and reached up to kiss my lip softly. Then she embraced me, resting her head on my chest, just standing there being held for a minute. I held her close and kissed the top of her head, causing her to let out a long sigh.
"I would absolutely love to spend time tutoring you tonight," Liz said, "but I'm just so tired."
"I know what you mean," I said. "We should probably both get a good night's sleep before tech, in the morning."
