This short story is not for readers who check to see if there is any "action" without having to scroll down. It is a first time for one of the girls, so it takes a while before each of them discovers that the other one is also just as eager to enjoy what two girls can do together. Of course, they are both at least eighteen years old.

"I am curious - if you don't mind? When did you start to shave? You know, down there."
Chris blushed at the question of her college freshman roommate. She and Pat had only met a few days before. When they were undressing the first evening, she had suddenly remembered that her shaven pussy could surprise Pat. They weren't facing each other, so Pat couldn't see that she blushed as they were taking of their last clothing, but it would have been awkward for Chris to try to hide her bare pussy, since Pat seemed to assume that they would be as unconcerned about nudity as all the girls in high school had been after sports.
Pat must have noticed, but to Chris's relief she hadn't said anything, and also didn't the following days, even though it was obvious that they were seeing each other naked. Chris thought they both had similar figures. Blond Pat's nipples were pink with larger areola than her own smaller, almost brown ones around her tight little nipples. Chris anticipated, however, that eventually Pat would ask something about her shaving, when they became better acquainted. She didn't want to call attention to it, but her dark pubic hair was growing, so finally Friday evening, when she was alone in their small bathroom, she shaved again.
Had she anticipated that her freshly shaven pussy would elicit Pat's question:
"When did you start to shave? You know, down there."
Chris blushed, despite her knowing that one day she was going to have to explain. Pat's question was at least easy to answer:
"This summer," she replied with a slightly wry expression.
"Don't know anyone else who does; just had to ask."
"That's all right; I knew you must have been wondering."
"I sure have been!" Pat replied, looking like she was relieved that Chris hadn't been upset by her question.
Chris was also relieved that Pat had finally asked and found herself wanting to say more:
"Not all at once. I bought a new bikini in the spring, trying it on over underpants. You know the kind of cotton ones Mom used to buy for me."
Pat nodded with a grin, enjoining:
"Like my mom did, bigger than any bikini bottom."
"Exactly! The first time I put on the bikini - luckily at home - I discovered that my hair showed at the top; had to quickly grab my razor and scrape it off. That was no problem, but then at the pool I saw woman with a few hairs curling out between her thighs. Shit! Mine could do that! I have a lot - before I shaved. You're lucky; not so much and just light tan; they wouldn't show like mine would."
Pat nodded. Inadvertently her fingers passed over her pubic hair that was so sparse that Chris could recognize her slit - not for the first time. Softly, unthinkingly she murmured:
"Couldn't have seen mine."
She then blushed at the realization of what she she had said, that she had admitted that she had been looking at Pat's pussy. She tried to deflect from that:
"Yeah, so at home I checked if my hairs down there could slip out. They could, so I trimmed them with my nail scissors."
"They hadn't at the pool, I hope."
"Not as much as I do!"
"And then? You shaved them all off," Pat remarked.
"Hmm? Yeah. My girlfriend's older sister had been to Europe and seen that some girls do."
"They do, and she saw them?!"
"In France, I think, somewhere were some people don't wear anything."
"Bet she didn't tell their mom that she went there."
"I doubt it, but she told her sister, . . . and, well, she didn't have the problem I had, but . . . well, she thought it was a good idea, so we both did."
"Shave it all off?" Pat asked.
"Um-hmm, thought it would be more difficult than it was, than it is."
Pat smirked and replied:
"I didn't ask that, but thanks for telling me."
"You don't need to. I like that I do - not need to, but that I do it."
Chris's hand unconsciously rubbed over her smooth mound. Pat smiled slightly and replied:
"A couple of girls at school had too much, well, I thought so; didn't look girlish. Hm-hmm! Even though the rest of them did."
Pat raised her hands under her breasts, gesturing that those girls had had bigger ones. They both chuckled, and Chris agreed:
"Like a couple in my class, more there and sooner than the rest of us. Can't remember about their hair."
They both smiled with shrugs. Pat used the bathroom, and they went to bed. That was the first night Chris ventured to start to masturbate in the darkened room with Pat.
She thought Pat wouldn't notice, and she didn't seem to, but then Chris noticed suggestive noises from Pat's bed, making her wonder if she had heard her first and tacitly agreed that now they were intimate enough to do what they both had been wanting to do since they met. Chris thought so and let a soft moan escape, delighted when she heard one from Pat. A couple of more moans were exchanged. Then Chis was surprised to hear Pat murmur:
"I'm glad that you want to, too."
"Me too, that you do."
"Uhmmm! And how! Almost a week without."
"Me too. Enjoy!"
"You too!"
