Maya was satisfied with her life as a student. University was quite hard because she had a lot to study, but she was still managing without resorting to supplements.
Together with Delia, she had started a "collection" campaign; they attended various conferences related to disadvantaged population and minorities and tried to help, as best they could, those who had not been as fortunate as they were.
She considered herself fulfilled on a sentimental level as well, Bogdan being the best thing that could have happened to her since she had moved from Chișinău. They got along better than ever, and the days they spent together flew by, leaving behind priceless memories.
The first month of university passed in the blink of an eye. Bogdan was the ideal dream of any girl. He took care of her like a valuable porcelain object, always being by her side. They met every day after classes for the Anatomy project, preparing for the presentation in January that would bring them their final grade. They were in love and existed only for each other, constantly starting the game of seduction without ever finishing it.
Bogdan had promised himself that he would go further only when she asked him to. He knew he wouldn't break his word, even though the temptation was enormous. He could swear that when it happened, he would no longer be able to stop himself, not even with prayers.
So it was that at the beginning of November, when they were at his place working on the project, Maya was visibly absorbed in Valeria's book about the four ventricles of the heart, when Bogdan decided to tease her a little. He got up from the desk and then sat comfortably on the floor behind her.
He held her in his arms, firmly pressed with her back against his chest. He had complete freedom of movement, and he was happy that he could indulge his sense of touch. His skillful hands carefully cupped her breasts, while his teeth played with the lobe of her right ear. He was delighted by the way Maya was breathing and by the reactions of her body.
"Say it."
"Say what?"
"You know very well. Come on, I want to hear you say it."
"I don't know what you're talking about, Bogdan."
"You're lying."
His warm lips assaulted her neck, adding passion and mastery to his kisses. He saw her purring gently in his arms, and he intended to tease her tenderly until she said what he wanted to hear. While with his left hand he continued to caress her breasts, he slid his right hand over her abdomen, following a sure path to its destination: the soft flesh between her legs.
He lifted her skirt and began a well-known game of seduction, in which Maya was the great prize, pleased to see that she tensed up. Her state of arousal excited him as well. His jeans were getting tighter and tighter around his penis, and he was sure that at that pace he would not last long before undressing her completely and venturing into unknown lands. But it was Maya's moment, and he did not dare to stop offering her pleasure.
Her broken voice finally came, like a prayer:
"I want you, Bogdan!"
"I thought you'd never take mercy on me. Come, my love. Today I intend to take the game to the end."
He took her in his arms and carried her bridal style to the bed, laying her down with such care that Maya truly felt fragile. He took off his sweater and undershirt, and lay down next to her, assaulting her mouth while undoing the buttons of her blouse. He was losing his patience. He tossed her blouse to the floor and hurried to get rid of her skirt, while pushing her bra aside and sucking her nipples.
Maya was in heaven. She loved everything he was doing to her, even though, in the back of her mind, she was terrified of this kind of first time. She arched her body, pressing herself closer to him.
Bogdan withdrew, leaving her naked, stretched out in the middle of the bed, and watched her greedily while continuing to undress himself.
Then, as his mouth kissed hers, his fingers prepared the ground for what was to follow. He felt her wet and ready, her body asking for union. It took him only a few seconds to put on the condom he always carried in his wallet. He positioned himself above her and pushed into her, stopping abruptly the moment he encountered the barrier of her virginity.
Cursing silently, he looked at Maya, who lay there with her eyes closed, waiting.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't think it was that important."
"Everything about you is important to me. Kiss me, my love."
Maya complied. Bogdan's tongue slowly entered her mouth, passing the barrier of lips and teeth, while his erect penis slowly made its way inside her.
"My love, you're so tight."
"Is that a good thing?"
"Oh yes. It's a very good thing. Don't move. The worst is over. Now comes the pleasure."
And indeed, it was exactly as he said. After the feeling of stinging and invasion passed, the pleasure associated with the back-and-forth movements followed. Bogdan was amazed by the wave of sensations that took hold of him. His first time ever with a virgin; never before had he experienced such feelings. The girl beneath him made him tender, sweet, and attentive at every expression on her face. He was grateful to his former bed partners, because now he knew when to apply pressure and when to withdraw, and he was discovering new erogenous zones of her body. He was convinced that while he was teaching her how to make love, she was teaching him how to love.
Maya was a slave of all this new feelings, carried to the peaks of pleasure. And when she felt it was too much, her body was seized by the liberating tremor, the shiver of release enveloping them both.
