I'm not sure I quite bought the premise, but the writing is crisp and vivid.

We need more entries like this.

I will look for more of your work! Thanks for the submission.

Great story and very believeable. When I was a lifeguard in college, a very similar thing happened to me. It was an experience I'll never forget and my life was never the same after that. It was simply fabulous everyday.

Keep writing

Excellent vignette about the entree into the erotic. I wish mine were like what your hero shared with Sharon. I recently read another, darker piece about the same subject, and my reaction's a mixture of admiration for the boys' luck and annoyance with the older gals using the boys they deflorate to stroke their ego, but that's my problem. Keep up the splendid work!

Although I never had such a wonderful experience when I was a lifeguard -- those were high school days -- I played in a dance band and was fortunate enough to encounter older "girls." It's my belief that nothing helps to convert a boy into a man like an affair with an older girl. It smoothed my life, it helped me to 'understand.' This was a wonderful exploration of life as it happens. I'm hoping for more. jesse

Splendid.

What a fitting tribute to your 'first love'. Wonderfully written and touching. If this is a real accounting of a life experience,....then all I can say is I only hope that somehow she gets a hold of the story,...and recognizes herself in your words.

Affectionate and gentle - the way it's supposed to be.

Beautifully, beautifully written.

Now and again a story get my attention and sings to me.

This story was an anthem. Loved it !

I was really getting into it, then I saw my mom's name and I have never been more flaccid in my life.
