" Did Steve want the word 'climax'? "I love you."He was slowly figuring out that she'd come to an orgasm. It was too bad she'd rolled away, but that w...sn't rejecting him. He pulled his arm so he was hugging her arm and body, but his hand wasn't putting pressure on her breast. "I love you, too."She could feel his arm cuddling her and his hand cuddling her in a different way. She could feel his warmth against her back and his hardness against her butt. According to the sex-ed books, he was ready.. Shell was amazed that he was giving Ashley an A-plus on her quiz.Ashley's friends were equally mystified by her smarts."How did you know that?" Jenny asked when Ashley came up with an obscure answer in history."Are you studying now?" Elizabeth asked."You need a boyfriend," Megan said."Is there something wrong with you?" Kayla asked.Nicole, Amber, Danielle, and Chelsea had questions of their own.With a big smile, Ashley would only say, "No, nothing's wrong. No, I'm not studying. I'll tell you in. I'll leave first.

Anna confessed laughing a little. "You looked like you took quite a hard hit on the head." "Yeah! It kinda hurts." She pouted, rubbing her head. "Let me take a look. It might be bruised." I offered. We moved to one side of the court out of the way the balls and Anna lowered her head. I tried to move.
