"To get back to what I was yakking about – good old sex – can we play it back?"

"Okay, yeah. A lot of teenage girls masturbate a lot, a helluva lot more than most people think. It's so easy after you get the hang of it, and these days with sex education and anatomy and books all around, a girl learns all about her body, especially the clitoris and what it's for."

"So, I was rolling my clitoris around under my finger, in the soup that accumulates in me down there when I'm hot and I started sliding my finger into my vagina, too, as far as I could."

"I was technically a virgin because I hadn't been fucked yet, but my hymen was gone from all the fingering I'd done in there."

"I was working myself up good again in bed that night, one finger going in and out and the middle finger of my other hand rubbing away on my clitoris. I was laying there naked, knees wide, panting away, staring up at the dark ceiling."

"It still wasn't good enough, though. So I tried two fingers inside. It was a different sensation and I went off again. But that itch continued in a really heavy way. My whole vagina felt… well, I was aware of it. I could feel the whole length of it in my belly, reaching up inside me, like a… like the inside surface of it was sensitive. I know girls aren't supposed to be able to feel anything in the vagina, but I swear I did. Still do, actually. There's got to be some nerves in the lining."

"And I had this special itch way up at the top in my belly."

"Then I heard Bo out in his yard, whining and barking, like he was calling me. He kept it up seemed like for hours. And I couldn't get to sleep. I tossed and turned and my mind kept ticking away and my belly glowed inside and Bo kept whimpering…"

"Finally, I put on a robe and went out to see Bo. I could hear him whining. I was naked under the robe, and barefoot, but it was a hot night and dry."
