doesn’t help you dressed up like that and the thought of you dancing, the way you dance …’ his brow creased again as he stalled. ‘It’s going to be hard.’
    ‘Gabe please, you want sex, I want sex, why can’t we just do it? I miss you so much. It’s been two weeks.’
    ‘No,’ he said firmly. ‘It’s not time yet. Is this the pub?’
    ‘Yes.’ I held my hand out to him, which he took. I was kind of nervous, being back home and introducing him to my friends. In less than a week it would be our three month anniversary and would make this my longest and most serious relationship. I desperately wanted all my friends to like him, there again why wouldn’t they?
    ‘So are we doing this or what?’ he smiled as I stood at the door biting my lip.
    ‘Sorry, it’s just a big deal introducing you to my friends, I need a second.’
    Of course I needn’t have worried, everyone loved him, Doug too, and Lexi and I both got grilled when they both went with the other boys to buy another round of drinks at the bar.
    ‘Mia, Gabe’s bloody gorgeous,’ sighed Mandy.
    ‘Hmmm if anything goes wrong toss him my way,’ nodded Jess. ‘I’m not too proud for sloppy seconds of that or Doug.’
    ‘He adores you Mia,’ added Lizzie with an elbow to my ribs. ‘He can’t keep his hands or eyes off you. Look he’s looking over now,’ she laughed and I blushed as they all started giggling while Lexi rolled her eyes.
    ‘I know, I’m really lucky and he’s so protective and caring,’ I sighed as I smiled back at him.
    ‘Tell me you’ve at least lost your virginity and you’re finally shagging?’ asked Mandy and all eyes turned to look at me. I went bright red and bit my lip as I smiled and a loud cheer went around the table, which made everyone in the pub look around.
    ‘Girls,’ I protested.
    ‘Tell me it’s good, I bet it’s good, he looks like he’d be good,’ Lizzie sighed as she looked his way again, her chin resting in her hand.
    ‘No, it’s not good,’ I said with a shake of my head as I looked over at him and heard them gasp. ‘It’s bloody sensational ,’ I giggled and they all cheered again. I nearly choked as Jess slapped me on the back.
    ‘How the hell did you get him for your first and I got Squeaky Pearson?’ Jess laughed.
    ‘No idea,’ I replied sincerely. ‘But I know how lucky I am.’
    ‘So you enjoyed it first time?’ Lizzie asked.
    ‘Yes, but Christ I hurt the next day, all over. ’
    ‘Did you come first time? I didn’t, Squeaky had a high intolerance for stamina as well as a high pitched voice,’ giggled Jess.
    ‘I did,’ I nodded. ‘It was amazing.’
    ‘Thank your lucky stars you don’t share a house with them guys,’ grizzled Lexi. ‘The two of them are at it all the time and you want to hear the bloody noise that comes from their room and as if that weren’t bad enough he makes her come every time, more than once.’
    ‘No,’ came a chorus of voices as everyone looked at me with jealousy all over their faces.
    ‘Doesn’t everyone?’ I asked surprised.
    ‘NO,’ came another chorus and I tried to keep the smug look off my face, not that I was doing a lot of coming at the moment, but he did usually make me do it, a lot .
    ‘Girls please don’t embarrass me in front of him, they’re coming back,’ I begged. I excused myself and gave Gabe a kiss which earned me another cheer from our table and I shook my head in despair as I headed to the ladies. I was on my way back to our table when I heard my name.
    ‘Mia? Mia Page? Is that you?’
    I turned around and my heart skipped its steady beat. Standing in front of me, looking every bit as gorgeous as I remembered him, was Tyler Jackson. Tyler was my teenage crush, no crush was too tame a word for what I’d felt for him, it was an infatuation, I was obsessed with him. He was the reason I was a decent swimmer, because I’d found every excuse to go to the pool hoping he’d notice me. I felt myself blush as I
