"Have you ever had a vaginal
orgasm?"
"Penis only? No hands, no
toys?" She took a drag from her cigarette, blew the smoke out into the
moonlight. "Once, girlfriend. A long time ago."
Her friend raised a beer to her
lips. She set the glass back down on the arm of her lawn chair. "What
happened?"
"I was dating a guy who was
awful in bed. Don't laugh. I mean, he was the worst. He'd get hard, shove it in,
pump away for half a minute. Done. No foreplay, no afterplay. After a while, I
gave up even trying to get turned on."
"Why'd you keep seeing him?"
"He was nice, I guess. Anyway,
we were hanging out on a Saturday. Every couple of hours he'd want to screw
again."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, we were only twenty. The
third time that morning, I was waiting for him to finish, just letting my mind
wander when, Bam! I had an orgasm. Out of nowhere."
"Crazy."
"It was just a little one,
but still. He had no idea. I thought about telling him, but it would have been
too awkward." She smoked and listened to the cicadas. "Have you ever?"
"Nope. Never have."
I love the conversation in this. It feels really natural.
