Maybe I Like Girls

River’s home from her first year at college when she finds herself on the couch with her stepmom, Sophia, confessing she just ended things with her boyfriend. Sophia softens at the news, worried he treated River badly, but the truth is simpler: the whole affair never felt right. What River really wants to ask about is a girl back on campus. She’s never been with a woman before and isn’t sure how to begin. Sophia’s mouth curves in a private smile; she remembers college too, nights her husband still knows nothing about. She offers to help. They start slow, lips brushing, breaths mingling, until Sophia slips the neckline of her dress down and River’s hands rise to cup warm, full breasts, thumbs circling stiff nipples that answer every touch. Sophia watches her closely, guiding her grip, showing her how to press and tease until the lesson deepens into something hotter, wetter, and far more intimate than either of them expected.
