The Last to Leave

by Erica Lee

there was something kind of hot about sex being a competitive sport. She needed to keep that in mind.

“Well, you’re also hard-headed. Case in point, you’re still holding a grudge against someone from high school. We’re twenty-six, for God’s sake.”

“What my boyfriend is trying to say is that you guys look like you’re seconds away from either gouging each other’s eyes out or ripping off each other’s clothes. Either way, we don’t want to be here for it.”

“I studied biology. Then I got my master’s in occupational therapy. I work with people who have been injured and need to gain back skills that we take for granted, like holding silverware, for example.”

“Just because I’ve got more game than Nintendo doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings.”

“My parents asked me if I was gay before I even had the chance to tell them. Apparently, I wasn’t very good at hiding it.”

The kind that can make even her worst enemy come five times in one night.

“You’re right. It’s completely crazy. We just reached the level of somewhat tolerating each other. You’re essentially suggesting that we become enemies with benefits.” Nicole was about to make up some lie about how she didn’t mean it when Courtney spoke again. “So, when do we start?”

“Hey, you know what they say about big feet.” “Big shoes?” “Big strap-ons.”

“I may be a lesbian, but I know how male anatomy works. You don’t need to explain it to me.”

Nicole turned the knob and was out the door before Courtney could fully comprehend what she said. When the words sunk in, Courtney almost melted into the couch. What. The. Hell. Just. Happened.

she had been looking forward to her lack of plans.

Nicole couldn’t believe her life. There was a girl in her bed dressed as a unicorn and wearing a strap-on and it was hands down the sexiest thing she had ever seen in her entire life.

“There is nothing else I would rather do today. In fact, I have an idea. What do you say I make us naked breakfast in bed, then we snuggle naked while we watch a movie, then after that maybe we can find some other naked activities to partake in?”

“I’m not having sex with you while your parents are hosting a Labor Day party downstairs. That’s just wrong.” “Says the girl who gave me an orgasm in the middle of a restaurant.”

“You’ve screwed me with a strap-on, gotten me off at dinner, and gone down on me while I was on FaceTime, and now you’re asking if you can kiss me?”

That shirt is hot, but it would look even better on my bedroom floor.

Courtney removed her arm from Nicole’s waist and put both arms around her shoulders. “Would you look at that. Looks like I’m the last to leave.” Nicole brought Courtney in closer and placed a quick kiss on her lips. “No, darling, you’re the first to stay.”

“The view is fine. It’s the noise that’s too much for me.”
