I lost mine in a 'Vette!
(Okay, okay, it was my Chevette, but come on, a 'Vette’s a 'Vette, right?
) Anyway, it was two days after my 19th birthday. I’d come home from college over Thanksgiving and stopped at my friend Rob’s house the Friday after Thanksgiving. Rob was home on leave from the Marines, and Rob and I had been best friend’s in high school with me spending as much time at his place as I did my own. Rob’s parents were also square dance callers and every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday night, they’d leave to go to square dances, so it was party central at Rob’s when the folks were gone!
At this party, there was a girl named Cindy, whom I’d never seen before (or since, for that matter
), and the two of us just started zinging each other with snappy one-liners (don’t remember what any of them were, had too much Bacardi 151 and other things that night). Near the time the party is starting to wind down, almost everyone takes off in pursuit of some guys in a van and are gone for a long time. Someone comes up with the idea that we all go into Eric’s (Rob’s younger brother by two years) room and hide until everyone gets back.
Everyone but Cindy and I get tired of hiding and heads outside to see if they can spot the others coming back (this is Ohio farm country, where it’s flat and you can see a car coming for miles). I’m lying on Eric’s bed, trying to keep from passing out, Cindy’s standing there at the foot of the bed saying something. I respond with something like, “Get down here.” and reach up and pull her on to the bed with me. We start making out, my hand goes for her zipper (she had on translucent panties
) and Cindy yells to her friend somewhere in the house, “Deanna! He’s unzipping my pants! What do I do?” I hesitate for a moment, and then Cindy makes it pretty clear that she doesn’t want me to stop. Just when things are about to get interesting, in walks Eric carrying his stereo speakers! :mad:
Cindy jumps up, gets her pants back up and the two of us flee outside to join the others waiting at the end of Rob’s very short driveway. Now, it’s November, in Ohio, so it wasn’t exactly warm out and we got pretty cold, so I suggested that we go sit in my car. One thing led to another, and aside from my friend opening the car door and running away, it was an enjoyable time.
I’ve thought about Cindy a lot in the fifteen years since, and wonder what happened to her. She seemed to be a very nice girl and even pretended not to believe me when I told her afterwards that I was a virgin. I never even knew her last name.
