Auggie grabs my pinkie, pulls me to him, hugs me, and rests his chin on the top of my head. “We’ll do everything we can to make sure we end up at the same school,” he tries to comfort me.
I love it when he holds me like this. Butterflies take off in my stomach, and I squeeze him tighter. I suddenly have the urge to kiss him.
He leans back and looks me in the eyes, giving me the impression that he is thinking the same thing. Our thoughts are interrupted when our parents yell at us to follow them to the next stop of the tour, the ball fields.

Auggie and I had a moment earlier, and I realized I was tired of waiting. I am going to tell Auggie I am ready. I’ll ask Logan if I can have a condom. He’s probably the only one who knows I am saving myself for Auggie, and Logan carries condoms everywhere. He’ll know exactly what it’s for.
Next, I need to think about where I want to lose it. We are on vacation. The good thing is, Auggie and Logan are in the guest house of the property our parents rented. I hope we can kick Logan out, and I can sneak into their room.
I know I’m kind of shoving this at Auggie, but he’s known this is what I want. I’m so nervous. Most of my friends have had sex. They all say it hurts the first time, but they said the second time, it’s a lot better. I’ll tell Auggie we will need to do it at least twice.
Oh, crap. That means I’ll need two condoms. I hope Logan brought enough to share.

Logan has plenty of condoms. He gives me a knowing grin. “I’ll make myself scarce and keep everyone away. Text me when it’s safe to come back.” He then turns on his heel and walks out of the room.
A little bit later, Auggie walks in and looks around. “Did I walk into the wrong room?” he questions.
I pat the space on the bed next to me. Our parents have left for the night. He takes a seat next to me, and we both lie back. I roll over on my side to face him.
“I want to have sex,” I blurt. “I’m ready.”
His eyes widen. I’ve surprised him. Something comes over his eyes like fear or worry, but just as quickly, he puts a smile on his face.
“Are you not ready?” I ask. My eyebrows bunch together in confusion.
“It’s not that.” He shakes his head. “I want to make sure you still want me. To be your first?”
“I’ve always wanted you to be my first. I wouldn’t trust anyone else.” I pull two condoms out of my pocket. “There’s one condition.”
He raises his eyebrows, waiting.
“We have to do it at least twice,” I continue. “Everyone always says the first time hurts, but the second time is way better.”
“So twice it is. I think I can work with that.” The right side of his lips turns up into a smirk.
“So, when are we going to do this?” he inquires.
“Right now.” This catches him off guard.
“What?”
“Right now. Our parents are out, and Logan is going to keep everyone busy while we…” I waggle my eyebrows.
He laughs. “I always thought you would give me plenty of time to plan something. I mean, I know you don’t want any cheesy crap,but I thought that you might give me a chance to make it special for you.”
“Aug, I don’t need candles and flowers. All that matters is that it’s with you. I know you’ll make sure I enjoy it as much as you. They say most girls don’t orgasm their first time. Can you… Will you at least make me orgasm before we have sex?” I ask shyly.
“Is that a challenge, River?” He smirks.
I grin at him and shrug. I lean closer. I know we have some time, but I don’t want to waste a moment. I fully lean into him, pressing my lips to his. He rolls to his back, hauling me on top of him.
We’ve been in this position before, but it’s been a while. His hand finds the hem of my shirt and starts to inch its way up my stomach.
I can’t believe I’m going to have sex. It’s finally happening. I’m still a little nervous. My emotions are a hurricane. I don’t want it to be cheesy, but I want it to be special. I know that Auggie will make it special. I trust him, and he has always been my person. I’ve told him I don’t want flowers or rose petals like in the movies.
