Nick lay there, catching his breath, but the sting of embarrassment overshadowed any lingering pleasure from his orgasm. He couldn't bring himself to look at Amelia, feeling ashamed for finishing so quickly. He had hoped his first time would be different, that he could make it memorable for both of them.
"You finished already?" Amelia's voice was a mix of curiosity and disappointment. "Is it always like this?"
Nick sighed, trying to salvage his pride. "This was my first time having sex," he admitted, his voice tinged with frustration. "I mean, I've watched porn, I've masturbated, even had wet dreams. But doing it for real... it's not the same at all."
Amelia's pout deepened, her eyes locking onto his. "Nick, I was so close. But you came too soon."
"I'm sorry," Nick repeated, feeling the weight of his inadequacy. "I'll make it up to you next time."
"Next time?" Amelia's eyes widened. "Why not now? Can't we just do it again?"
