I pretended not to be shocked at all, but inside I was going crazy. Had she really just said what I think she said? I didn't want to ask her, but I had to make sure.
"You're first what?" I asked her, practically shaking with excitement.
"Nick!" she yelled and playfully punched me. "You know what I mean. I want to lose my virginity... with you." she whispered.
I gulped. I mean, yeah, I wanted to do it, but... wouldn't it be a lot of pressure knowing it was her first time? Wait, what was I saying? I shouldn't be the one worrying here. It's her first time. I just wanted to tell myself to shut-up.
"Nick, aren't you gonna say something?" Savanna asked me, looking right at me. I looked away but then looked back at her again.
"Yeah, I'm just shocked. This is alot of stuff... you know... first we're saying we love each other and now... you want to have sex..." I said, but felt bad as soon as it came out. I didn't mean it like that. "Wait, I didn't mean that." I said, before she could say anything. "I just meant, everything's happening fast." I finished.
She nodded. "Yeah, it is. But that's good, isn't it? I like when things go fast." she joked and kissed my neck softly.
"Haha, you're funny, Sav.." I said sarcastically, and let my voice trail off. She grinned. "But baby, I'm just saying... I really want you... us... to be ready before we... do it. I don't want it to be like anything else. It's going to be perfect." I told her.
"I know Nicky... I didn't mean I want to do it, like, right now. I just meant I want to lose it to you. In the future... when we're ready." she told me.
"Good. That's sounds great to me." I grinned and kissed her lips. "I don't want you to think I'm the 'leader' or some shit like that, just because I've done it before, either... and I don't want to rush you into it..." I told her, making sure.
"Nicky... I know. And we both know I'm the leader." she joked again and then layed down on top of me.
~~~~~Downstairs~~~~~
"No! Brian! We're not watching MTV! We don't care what number The Call is, remember?"
Kevin Richardson yelled across the room at his cousin, Brian Littrell, who held the remote and was flipping through the channels. He'd just stopped on MTV's TRL with Carson Daly, and up next was the MTV Countdown.
"Yes we do!" AJ McLean screamed, sticking up for Brian. "Leave it here, Rok!"
"Fine. I'm going to take a walk. Howie, you coming?" Kevin asked the last member of the group, Howie Dorough.
"Sorry Kev, I've been dying to watch MTV. I think I'll stick around here." Howie answered, and then he, AJ, Brian and Brian's wife Leighanne all laughed at poor Kevin.
"Fine, fine... I'll be back in awhile. Don't leave without me." Kevin finished and then left Savanna's house after saying goodbye.
"Hey, what'd you think Nicky and Savanna are doing right now?" Leighanne asked the three guy sitting in the living room with her.
Smiles formed on AJ and Howie's faces, thinking the same thought as Leighanne was. But Brian knew differently. I told Brian everything. There's not anything he doesn't know about me. He knew that Savanna and I weren't having sex because he knew we weren't ready. I'd let him know when we were ready.
"They ain't doing nothing bad, I know that." Brian told his friends.
"You wanna bet on that?" AJ asked. Brian smiled. "I got ten bucks that says if I go up there they'll be fucking... shit, they haven't seen each other in like three months. I know if I hadn't seen my girlfriend in that long, I'd be on her the second I saw her." AJ laughed. "Ha... I'd only been away from Amanda for a week and I was all over her. I don't know how Nick can stand it."
"I got twenty bucks that says they're only making-out." Brian replied.
"You're on, buddy." AJ grinned and jumped up. He and Brian shook hands to seal the bet and then he laughed and took off up the stairs.
~~~~~Back in Savanna's Room~~~~~
"Someone's coming up the stairs..."
Savanna mumbled as she kissed my neck and chest. She had really good hearing. We weren't doing anything bad. Just making-out, basically. She still had all her clothes on, and I was only half naked. It just felt so good, just being able to hold her and kiss her again. Two and a half months was way too long, I realized that.
"Don't worry baby... it's just one of the guys checkin' in on me." I laughed.
There was a knock on the door a minute later and I called out, "Who's there?"
"It's AJ. I got a question..." he yelled back through the door.
"Be right there!" I yelled to him and then kissed Savanna once more and got up. She fixed her hair a bit and then sat up. I walked over to the door, unlocked it and then opened it.
AJ stood there, looking at us, and looked a little disapointed.
"What's up Bone?" I asked my friend.
He hesitated before he answered. He grinned at Savanna and gave her a little wave. She waved back.
"Sorry to interupt ya'll... Nicky, do you got $20 I can borrow? I owe Brian..." AJ said sadly, letting his voice trail off.
"Uh, yeah, sure..." I replied, confused about why he had to get the money now. I didn't question him though, I just pulled out a twenty dollar bill from my jeans' pocket and handed it to him.
"Thanks bro... sorry again, Savanna..." AJ finished.
"No problem, AJ." she answered.
"Oh, we're probably going to go get something to eat when Kevin gets back... would you two want to come?" AJ asked us before he left.
"Where'd Kev go?" I asked, concerned.
"Just for a walk." he answered.
"Alright... well, yeah... I'm starving. Would you wanna go with the guys, Sav?" I asked my girlfriend, who had a sneaky look on her face.
"Not really... I mean, I don't want to be rude, but I had something else in mind... it's kind of a surprise... which I totally forgot about until just now." she grinned again. "I was thinking me and you could go out to eat, alone." she finished.
"Oh... alright." AJ let out a laugh. "See you two crazy kids later then." he finished and winked at me.
I playfully punched him and then he left. I turned back to Savanna, confused.
"What's this 'surprise' you totally forgot about?" I asked her, wanting to know.
"Shit, I can't believe I forgot. You wanna see it now?" she asked me.
"Uh, yeah!" I laughed, and grabbed her hand.
"Alright, well, put your shirt on, and we'll go." she laughed and stood up.
"Where's the surprise?" I asked, curious.
"Outside. In the garage, actually." she answered, not letting go my hand.
"Uh, ok..." I said, still confused. But I just threw on my t-shirt and then we left her bedroom together.
Downstairs, Brian, Leighanne, Howie and AJ were sitting in the living room watching the MTV Countdown.
"HEY!" I yelled. "What number is The Call at?" I asked, as we walked into the room.
"We don't know yet. It's only at #25..." Brian said in a funny voice. He was so hilarious.
Savanna giggled at him and wrapped her arm around my waist.
"Alright, well let me know later... we're going out to the garage to get a surprise." I said, but it came out differently than I'd meant it.
They all laughed at me and we walked out of the room. We walked through the large house and to a door in the kitchen, which lead out to the garage.
"Ok, close your eyes." she demanded and I immediately shut my eyes tight. She put a hand over my face just incase I peeked. I laughed as she lead me through the doorway and down some steps. "Alright. We're here." she laughed as I pulled her hand down off my face.
