Sexual Awakening
The first time I felt turned-on, I was 11. Oh fifth grade, what a time! The chunky wool hat I never took off. Braided hair hanging greasily over my free summer reading t-shirt paired artfully with jeggings and self loathing. I had made it through four thick novels worth of subhuman warfare interspersed with moments of romantic tension. Then, midway through the fifth, the protagonist and the sexy, not-quite-human, romantic interest kissed. I still remember the exact wording.
I didn’t know what the feeling was but I knew it wasn’t bad. Maybe even good? Maybe. Yes? Better read it again to be sure. Hmm. Yes, I think good. I’ll just read a few more times to be certain. Maybe just one or two more times. Just one more now. Another few and I’ll be positive. Just one more. One more. One more….
Everything shared is 100% true with no exaggeration. Tune in next week for Ep. 6 to see what other shenanigans Annie’s friend gets into during her messy search for love.
