"Hello," Lexi said into her iPhone.
"Hey, girl," Emma replied. "What's going on?"
"Not much, just got home from slinging frogurt."
"Any cute guys come in?"
"No, not really. What are you up to?"
"Algebra. Urg!" Emma groaned. "Hey, can I ask you a question?"
"Sure, but make it quick, my phone is dying," Lexi said, "and we're headed out to dinner to celebrate my brother's birthday. By the way, he's legal now if you're―"
"Don't
even
go there," said Emma.
"Alright, I'm just saying. So what's your question?"
"What does it mean when a woman is skilled, orally I mean?"
"It means she's good at sucking cock."
"I know that, but what makes her good at it?"
"You're asking the wrong girl. I've only done it once and I won't do it again," said Lexi, "at least not with Conner."
"Why not?"
"Quick Draw McGraw couldn't control himself, as usual, and started cumming in my mouth before I could pull off of him."
"So you didn't like it?"
"Are you kidding? It was gross. He promised me he would warn me when―"
"What was it like?" asked Emma. "What did it taste like?"
"It tasted like chicken."
"Really?"
Lexi laughed. "No, I'm kidding. Actually, it tasted weird and the texture was disgusting. It was slimy, like snot."
"I heard that some girls like it."
"Well, some girls like eating raw fish too."
"I like sushi," said Emma.
"Well, then maybe you'll like it," said Lexi. "Why are you asking me all of these questions?"
"I've been thinking about trying it."
Lexi didn't reply.
After a long pause,"Hello? Lexi? Are you still there?
"Fuck!" Emma shouted into her phone.

Later that night, Emma was curled up on the couch with her father. They were watching a mystery movie, when her phone rang. "Hello," she answered.
"Trying what?" Lexi asked.
"What?"
"You said you were thinking about trying something, when my phone died."
"Um, hold on a sec." Emma got up, headed for her bedroom and closed the door behind her. "Sucking cock," she whispered into the phone.
"Really?" Lexi asked. "I thought you were saving yourself for marriage."
"I never said that. I said I was saving myself for the right person."
"And you've found him?"
"Yeah, sort of."
"Who is he?" asked Lexi. "Where did you meet him?
"He's my― we met . . . um, online."
"What does he look like?"
"He's tall and handsome," said Emma, "and I can't stop thinking about him."
"So you're going to let him pop your cherry?"
"I want to, but it's complicated."
"Why?" Lexi asked. "Is he married?"
"No, he's divorced actually."
"So he's older?"
"Yeah."
"I love older men. I would love to spend a night with an experienced man who knows how to please a woman," said Lexi. "I probably shouldn't tell you this, but I've had a serious sexcrush on your dad ever since I hit puberty. Do you think that's weird?"
"I don't know. I guess not," said Emma. "He is kind of attractive, I guess."
"Kinda? Emma, your dad is friggin' hot! I probably shouldn't tell you this either, but sometimes just being around him makes me wet. Does he like younger women?"
"Who?"
"Your dad."
"No, I don't know think so. He's dating someone who is around his age, I think. Besides, I don't think you're his type."
"Why's that?"
"He likes girls who swallow," she whispered.
"Why are you whispering?"
"Because he's home and I don't want him to hear me."
"Oh," said Lexi. "So, how do you know?"
"Know what?"
"That he likes girls who swallow."
"He told me," Emma explained.
"Really? You guys talk about sex stuff?"
"Yes, no, he was talking about a date he went on. That's how I found out."
"Oh."
"That's how I know he wouldn't be interested in a girl like you. A girl that doesn't swallow."
"Who says I wouldn't swallow for him?" asked Lexi.
"I thought you said you didn't like it."
"Who says I have to like it? I'd let your dad do me however way he wanted. I'd let him― no, I'd beg him to make me his bitch. Just thinking about it is making me horny. What else does he like?"
"I don't really know," said Emma. "Anyway, back to what we were talking about."
"What were we talking about?"
"The guy I met."
"Oh, yeah. Sorry, I got distracted," Lexi said. "When are you going to do it?"
"I don't know exactly. We haven't really talked about it."
"What's there to talk about? Just whip it out and shove it in your mouth. It's not like he's going to say no."
"You think so?" asked Emma "I'm kinda worried."
"About what?"
"Because he's used to being with girls who are, you know, more experienced."
"Don't worry about it. Does he know you're still a virgin?"
"No. Should I tell him?"
"I would. He'd probably like that."
"When you went down on Conner, how much did you?"
"How much did I what?"
"How much of it did you put in your mouth?"
"Not much," said Lexi. "It happened so fast; I was just getting started."
"So, you didn't deep throat him?" Emma whispered. "I heard guys like that."
"Guys like a lot of things, Emma. It doesn't mean you have to do all of them. Don't let this guy pressure into something you're not comfortable with."
"Yeah, I know, I know. But I want to make him like it. I want to make him want me." Emma said. "And what about you?"
"What about me?"
"What about all that crazy stuff you said you'd let my dad do to you?"
"That's different," explained Lexi.
