Size does matter

Being quite new to the world of copulation, he didn't know what to expect. There was excitement. There was apprehension. There was confusion. Does he behave like the beast he was feeling lying next to her, or live upto the gentleman image he had created in her mind, and undo those buttons on her shirt one at a time, exercising iron will?!!!

She wasn't all that subtle with him. In the twinkling of any eye, he found his shirt on the floor, belt seperated from his trousers, trousers themselves on the floor. Iron will remained. Eventually with assistance from her, she reached the same level of undress that he was in.

The deed got done. He was still on top of her. Still in a daze, looking down at her, unsure whether to roll away, or remain where he was, weight of his body on his knees and arms. When she suddenly giggled. Then laughed. And finally guffawed.

He was in shock. Rolled away, and sat up legs crossed beside her, waiting for her to finish with her uncontrollable laughter. He wasn't sure what to think. He believed he had failed. He didn't know if women laughed uncontrollably immediately after the act.

She stopped laughing. Looked at him and with a straight face told him, "My tampon is still inside....!!!!"
