A New Life

part 13

*Cams pov*
"I'm a virgin" I said. It felt like my heart just dropped to my feet. I have no idea why I just told Cassie that. She's going to think I'm so lame. I mean, I'm 17 years old and probably the only kid I know who's never had sex yet. I saw Cassies eyes widen. I knew it. She thinks I'm a loser. "You know what? I'm sorry. I probably shouldn't have told you that." I said getting off of the bed embarrassed. I felt Cassie's tiny little hands wrap around my bicep. "Wait wait, what's wrong with telling me that? Why is it embarrassing? You didn't think you could just tell me something like that and get up and leave did you?"
"Kinda" I said.
"Well you're wrong, come sit down." She said letting go of me and sitting on her bed, patting the free spot next to her. I walked over next to her and sat down with some space in between. "How is being a virgin embarrassing to you?" she asked. "Because Cassie, you don't understand. I constantly get made fun of for it by my friends. It's all they ever talk about. They say how immature I am because I'm 17 and I've never done anything before." Her eyes stayed on me the whole time showing she was paying attention. Then she spoke up. "Cam, it's okay. I am too." "You are what?" I asked confused.
"A virgin" she said back. That took me off guard and honestly I'm so relieved. She must have noticed I wasn't expecting that because she saw my eyes widen. "Surprised?" she asked.
"No it's just, I would have thought with your ex boyfriend..." "And that's exactly why he's my ex" she said.
"But I thought you said it was because of the move?" I asked confused. "Partially. The other reason is because I refused to do anything with him. It just didn't feel right with him." "Thank god" I said.
She laughed and asked "Why do you sound so relieved?"
"Because it's so hard to find a girl that hasn't done anything before now a days"
"So what's your reason?" she said.
"My reason for what?"
"For being a virgin" she said.
"Okay it's not that I don't want to do anything, because believe me I do. Why do you think I stopped myself a few minutes ago on the floor over there?" She shrugged. "Respect" I told her. "I have respect for girls. Most guys don't. I'm not the type of boy to just hook up with anyone, call me nerdy but I'm not. I'm waiting for the right person and I know it sounds cliché but I really want my first time to be with someone I love. I want it to be special for the both of us." I told her. I looked at her and she had the biggest smile on her face. "Why are you smiling?" I asked poking at her cheek. "Because you seem almost unreal, like you're out of a movie or something. You just explained all I want in a guy."
I got this warm feeling in me when she said that. I've never had butterflies over a girl before but I'm pretty sure this is what it feels like. She makes me so happy, and I feel like it's so fast because we've only been on one date. It definitely won't be our only one either. I actually want this girl to be my girlfriend. Which is surprising because I don't ever have girlfriends, I've only had 2 real relationships which ended drastically, which is why I don't ever date. But it's different with Cassie. I feel like a whole other guy when I'm around her. She makes me so happy. I reached out my hand cupping her face and looked her in the eyes. "I know neither of us want to move too fast, but I honestly just can't wait until the day that I can call you mine." I said. I saw a smile form across her face and felt her hands wrap around my neck pulling me in close into a kiss. Our lips moved in sync and I could literally feel the sparks flying. Her lips were so soft and fit perfectly with mine. Our heads turned continuing the kiss and more sparks followed. I can already tell, this girl is going to make me so happy.
