Charlotte
He was gentle as ever. I wanted to tell him to let go, that it was okay.
After eight times—yes, I kept count—it had long since stopped hurting. I
told myself he was being considerate. Considerate yet enthusiastic. Maybe a
little too enthusiastic. Once again, it was over before I’d gotten warmed up;
he collapsed on top of me after a few minutes. But his tired, satisfied smile
when he raised his head from the crook of my shoulder warmed my heart,
even if my body was left wanting.

I was new to the whole ‘having sex’ thing, but I liked it. Quite a bit, if I
were being honest. Granted, I hadn’t achieved the Big O yet, but I was
twenty-one and yet still a rookie. I figured I’d get there with practice. And I
was more than willing to put the time in with my handsome new boyfriend.
My first boyfriend. My first love. My first everything.
I reached for Keith again but he rolled onto his back and kissed my
hand. “I’ve got class,” he said. “And you, my darling, have an audition
tonight. The most important of your life.”

“So far,” I said, with a grin. “After I graduate, I’m going for the Phil. Or
maybe Boston.” And make my big brother proud.
I kept that last part about my brother to myself. Most New York people,
I’d come to find out, didn’t understand the closeness two kids growing up in
Montana shared. Or maybe we just happened to be closer than most
siblings. Tall and strong where I was short and shy, Chris watched out for
me in school. My adolescent years weren’t a torture because I spent them in
his protective shadow, and everyone loved him. No one more than me.
I thought of what Chris had told me the day I left. “First Juilliard, then
the Phil!” I’d laughed and hugged my big brother.

He didn’t realize both the
school and the New York Philharmonic shared the same space in Lincoln
Center, but I knew what he meant. He, like everyone else around me,
believed my success to be a foregone conclusion. I was a natural. A
prodigy. A virtuoso, they said. And to Chris, I was also his annoying little
sister who was about to leave Montana and strike out for the big, bad world.
And now I was in my senior year at Juilliard, ready to add another notch
on my resume—the Spring Strings—before graduating.

A thought dimmed my smile. I turned to Keith. “If I kill it tonight,
won’t they think I got in because of us?”
Keith pulled on his jeans, his back to me, his blond hair glinting in the
shaft of light spilling in from the tiny dorm room window. “Probably,” he
said.
