ocean,” I replied stupidly and we both laughed.
    “So how does it feel?” He floated on his back.
    “It’s different.” I decided to be brave and float on my back as well. I felt my breasts bobbing at the top of the water. It felt weird and different, but also kind of nice. I felt like I was one with nature.
    “The stars are really bright tonight.” He continued with his small talk and I realized that he was nervous as well.
    “I wonder if we’ll see a shooting star.”
    “What would you wish for if you saw one?” he asked as we both stared up into the night sky.
    “Nothing,” I answered softly. “I wouldn’t wish for anything. What about you?”
    “Nothing either,” he said. “This moment is pretty much perfect. I don’t think I could wish for anything more perfect than this.”
    “Me either,” I whispered back. I felt as if my heart were going to burst out of my chest. And then I felt his hands around my waist as he pulled me to him. I wasn’t afraid or scared as I felt my breasts crush across his chest.
    “Hey.” He smiled down at me. There was a look of intensity in his eyes as he searched mine.
    “Hey again.” I felt his hands gripping my back, and instinctively I wrapped my legs around his waist.
    “You’re wearing panties.” He laughed and I looked up at him curiously.
    “How did you know?”
    “Because if you weren’t, we’d be making love right now.” He winked at me and pushed my butt forward. I gasped as I felt something hard between my legs.
    “Oh.” I blushed, glad that the night sky was hiding my embarrassment and lust.
    “Maybe you shouldn’t keep your legs like that,” he groaned into my ear and I looked at him again.
    “Why?”
    “Because your panties might not remain on for long.”
    “Oh.” I laughed nervously, wishing that I’d taken them off before I’d gone into the ocean.
    “How many boys have you been with, Riley?”
    “None.” I bit my lower lip as I waited to see how he was going to react. “Hopefully that will change tonight.”
    “Are you sure you want me to be the one?” He struggled with the words, and I nodded my response. “We don’t have to do this.”
    “I want you to be the one.” I looked into his eyes. “I like you.”
    He grinned at me. “I like you too.”
    “You were my first kiss and I want you to be my first, you know...lover.”
    “I don’t want to do this if you aren’t ready.”
    “I want it to be special,” I whispered. A part of me was screaming at me that this wasn’t special. It wasn’t special or right—not when he had a girlfriend—but I ignored the voice.
    “I want to be your first,” he groaned. “Maybe I shouldn’t admit that. Right? I don’t know. You’re all I think about, Riley. You’re so special to me. I wish that—”
    “Sshh.” I leaned forward and kissed him. The water was starting to feel colder, so I pressed into him harder.
    He leaned back and looked into my eyes. “I think I might love you, Riley.”
    “I think I might love you too, Hudson.” I laughed, happy but still feeling like what I was doing was wrong.
    “I want our first time to be special.”
    “This is special.” I pushed away from him and pulled my panties off. I held them in my hands and he watched as I threw them into the ocean. “This is what I want.”
    “Oh, Riley.” His fingers reached out and caressed my breasts.
    I sighed as his fingers played with my nipples. It felt nice, and a warm feeling spread throughout my body. I’d never felt like this before, and I wasn’t accustomed to this strange but welcome feeling.
    I reached out and touched his chest. It felt cold and hard and wonderful. I ran my fingers over his nipples, and he gasped as I pinched them. I looked up at him in amazement and he laughed.
    “What’s so funny?” I mumbled and leaned forward to kiss his chest.
    “Nothing.” He cupped my breasts and then I felt his hands moving to my butt. “You’re just wonderful.” His fingers ran over
