He liked the idea that she was a virgin. He liked this very much. This idea appealed greatly to something in him, some primitive, deep down, instinctual, male thing. Nobody had ever been there before, you see, not in that pussy. Supposedly, anyway.
He wanted to believe, and he tried to believe...But he decided that what would have to do, instead, was the security of being the one inside her, at that moment, then.
As it happened, he was right to lower his expectations. When he found out later that she hadn't been a virgin after all it wasn't so bad. He said it helped. Lowering expectations…helped.
