Becoming a Woman

"Yeah," he said, "she's rebuilding a truck from scratch."

It did not surprise me that Jason would know this. He had talked openly about every day life to a lot of people in the room.

The drive in theater had always been a favorite place. As children Kassey and I used to go with mom and dad to watch a children's movie such as a Disney film.

After a long, nice visit with my parents Jason and I left the house for the Jerico Drive -in Theater. During the early autumn evenings it got dark around 8. The movie would start then. Jason and I took the speakers in through the window. I was impressed by the quality of their sound, far better than the weak, monotone that I heard as a child.

The car parked in a front row with the giant screen some 100 feet in front of us. Off to our right some distance away the snack bar was already drawing a crowd.

"Do you want anything sweetheart?"

"popcorn, large," I replied.

On that note he left the car. I remained behind, lit a cigarette and opened the window,

I had told Jason that I smoke. He didn't but I recalled him saying that people do inside his car.

Several minutes later he returned carrying two buckets of popcorn and passed one to me through the window.

"Did you enjoy your smoke?"

I looked at him. No one had ever asked that. Yes I enjoyed it. I would not have had it if I didn't.

As we nibbled slowly at our popcorn the movie played on the giant screen. About halfway through it he placed a hand on my thigh and gently rubbed me. Pirates of the Caribbean was playing.

I always thought Johnny Depp, the film's star, was cute. He was someone who could make me have a little sexual fantasy. Through parts of the movie I was a genetic girl in his bed room.

It was a slow ride to the exit behind the long line of other cars that were lined up bumper to bumper. To pass some time Jason talked a little bit about the affair he had had with a boy his age when he was 15. He had also told me about this on line. I had told him about one week with an ex marine who was not comfortable having sex with me two years ago.
