Inara's shuttle entered the landing pattern for the white pine spaceport. She noticed the usual cluster of rough housing in cheap bars, casinos and br...othels. They had grown up between the port and the workers quarters which were laid out in the typical terra-forming authority pattern. There was another cluster near the local mines and processing mills."Oh well, this is how Londinium and Shinon had started out centuries ago." Inara mused.Once landed, she engaged a healthy looking, good-natured. No checking texts orFacebook. No selfies. And the clothes. The late 90's were in full forcehere. Plaid and argyle for miles.I put my backpack down and started to pull out my binder when someonewalked up to the desk in front of me. I looked up.It was Fay. My crush. Oh my god. My heart skipped and long forgottenmemories resurfaced about how much I pined over her. She stood over me,her silhouette in front of the classroom's florescent lights made a haloaround her. She smiled at me."Hi!" she. .. .so much." My shocked face looked at him to see his face still calm and his eye' s still closed. i was almost starting to wander if i' d actually said it but then his head turned and I saw it in his eye' s as the opened. There was a yearning about them. "Jenny, I've wanted this for so long, I just never wanted for you to think that's all I wanted." "James I would never think that. I love you." "I love you too." I felt his hands around me and I kissed him. My lips moist and delicious. I lay. I know that she wasn’t when I was [G] and, being shy in the extreme in my younger days, I was never the one to place myself in a situation where I might be rejected. I hated rejection (don’t like it much today, either) I visualize the circumstances like this…a fairly lengthy ‘getting to know you’ relationship. There had been some heavy petting from time to time and some very heavy breathing. A confidence from her ‘I never have before’ would have me restraining my desires until one day (night?).
