EOIN

Aoife lay against me,breathing heavily, as the reality of what had just happened sank in. For the first time, I’d fucked a girl bare. At no point had I even thought about stopping to put on a condom … and pulling out at the end had never even crossed my mind. It went against everything I’d ever done, but once I'd been inside Aoife, it had been perfection. As if that was exactly where I was supposed to be. As if this girl who I’d watched in awe and admiration my entire life had somehow been hand-picked for me. I’d just never known it until that moment.

I knew I should be panicking, but the only thought in my head—echoing over and over again until it became a chant that synced perfectly with my heartbeat—was, “I think I loveher.”

And then it hitme.

I didn’t just think I loved Aoife.

Iknew.

She was it forme.

It wasn’t supposed to happen this way. We were way too young, and I had no idea how we were going to make things work, but I was going to do my best to try. No matter what happened from here on out, Aoife was my girl and always wouldbe.
