DOWN WITH THE PATRIARCHY

Summer

I wasn’t exactly sure how much time had passed, but I regained full awareness of my surroundings when I heard Jason returning from the bathroom. The bed dipped as he climbed in. He sprawled on his back and rolled me until I was laying along the full length of his side. I bent one leg across his firm thighs and placed one hand on his chest over his heart. His chest was sculpted from pure muscle, the lean kind, and had very little blond hairs across his pecs. My head fit perfectly under his chin and I sighed in full-body contentment. I had absolutely no regrets. None. Nada. Mama may have taught me better than to jump into bed with someone like I just had, but not one part of me had an iota of regret. Every rule had its exceptions and Jason, tonight, had exception written all over him.

His touch left goosebumps as he trailed his hand through my hair, down my back, and then lightly grazed his fingers all the way back up to do it all again, on repeat. I was boneless and happy. I was also unsure of what happened next. Somehow, bold Summer, who told this amazing man to take her home only a few hours ago, was wishing to transform into an escape artist post-orgasm. Maybe I should say something. But, what? Or, maybe I should lay here contented and leave any further conversation to him. Solid plan. I could totally do that.

I couldn’t do that since he wasn’t saying anything and now the silence was starting to feel weird. Something needed to be said and it looked like I was going to have to be the one to say it. But, what does one say to a man who just totally blew your mind? “Hey. You just totally blew my mind.” Um, no. “Thanks!” Thanks? Next I’ll be handing him a gold star and telling him, “Job well done.” Sheesh.

While I’d been having my internal debate, I’d missed the fact that Jason’s hand had stopped moving. Oh, shit! Had he said something? Maybe I missed it. I didn’t think so. Since I wasn’t planning to spend the night, maybe I should start getting myself together and thank him for a wonderful evening. After all, sex or no sex, we were not ready for the intimacy of sleeping in each other’s arms all night. Mornings are a pretty private thing. Morning breath. Drooling on pillows. Morning routines. That’s serious relationship territory, and I was pretty sure we weren’t ready for that. Were we? It was technically our first date, so of course not. That would be ridiculous. Right?

On top of that, Jason wasn’t comfortable being open with me yet, so, yeah, not staying the night. I made the decision to enjoy the cuddles, but also to make sure I didn’t fall asleep and I would Uber or ask him to take me back at a reasonable time. While I was busy rambling in my head, I also concluded that it was probably awkward for him too.
