Abby decided that it was time for her to get some advice.
The date with her “Business Arrangement” kept playing in her head over and over especially towards the end. That thought made her blush while she drove to her cousin Opheilas home. The fact that she did all that gross stuff and didn't feel the need to barf or wrinkle her nose meant that she needed some things explained. Yes she was aware that basically without even trying she did some things with Ben that would be considered natural for someone her age. However, even if she knew that to be true, if she told her mother what happened there was going to be nothing short of ANOTHER talk about the birds and the bees.
No, she did not need that for the sixth time in a row.
Going to Alex would be embarrassing as well, even if he would be polite and courteous about it. He still had Rene which tends to be more on the gross side when it comes to things, so he was out of the question too as well as Hux by association. There was Lorcan but god didn't need an anatomy lesson or something along the lines of that. Her cousins were all very ... .Polite or clinical when it came to the topic of sex, so she decided that Ophie would be the one to go to about this. Once she parked in the covered parking of where her cousin stayed she locked her car and made her way to the top of the apartment complex, knocking on the door.

Ophilia knew that Abby was coming, mostly because her younger cousin called her but also because her apartment building requires either a keyfob to get in or to be buzzed in, so by the time Abby was knocking on her door she was already there. The younger woman barely had a chance to knock the second time before Ophilia opened the door and told her to come on in. “Go and get settled while I get drinks. Tea or water?” She asked as she made her way over to the kitchen. Her apartment was open plan, at least the first floor was, so she didn’t worry about not hearing Abby as the other girl picked a spot to sit. This wasn’t the first time Abby had come over but this was one of the first times she had come over after asking to in such a cryptic way.
“So what is the deal? What's wrong?” She might have been a bit blunt in her questions but she did care. She was also aware that she wasn’t exactly the person in the family anyone really went to when they had issues outside of financial ones that is. That was typically Alex. Although now that she was aware of what exactly he had been through she was going to have to reevaluate that particular family dynamic. The desire to sock him in the arm again over all the secrets was still going strong in her.

Abby gave her older cousin a bright smile and made her way into her home, taking off her jacket and hanging it up on the coat hanger, “Tea please~” While she made her way over to the couch, a blush appeared on her face while she thought of how to tell her cousin exactly what happened. She figured since Ophie was pretty blunt she could be as well. “Ummmmn… So to explain ....Apparently Daddy was looking into buying yet another random business for whatever boring reasons he felt the need to and so a part of that deal was the fact that he wanted me to try and date their son or at least give him a try. I agreed because apparently this business venture is the most important to him.”
She cleared her throat, deciding to skip the part about where she snuck out to a club and he kept her from being seen. “We ... .Went out on our date and Ophie I have to show you where we went! The burgers are so divine! I never thought there would be something so good outside of a five star!” She sighed happily, eyes bright and twinkling. There would be time to go back there again one day. “But ummm….We kissed.” She tried not to go into a fumbling mess, “A-And after that we walked back to the monstrosity that is his mode of transportation, then he ummmm….Well, he did things that causedmetomakeamessonhispantsleg.” Okay so it was jumbled, but she got there. “I-I'm not sure what to do…I always thought this kind of thing was gross, you know that. But then THAT happened and I'm confused.” She looked to her cousin, hoping she wouldn't make her repeat herself because she didn't know if she could do it a second time.

Ophilia quickly put together a glass of iced tea for Abby and some water for herself, she was following the explanation so far. She knew what her uncle did, honestly didn’t care outside of mentally making a note to talk to him about addressing some tax things when it came to him acquiring another business. But when Abby just blurted out whatever she did at the car, Ophilia’s dark brows practically came together as she frowned, trying to decipher what the younger girl had just said.
She passed the glass of tea over to Abby and settled herself in one of the side chairs and just looked at her cousin, the blush gave some explanation but still. “So you two went and ate, kissed, and then did something that is confusing you? I know you have had ‘the talk’,” the words were practically said with visible air quotes, “so you have some idea of what happened. What's confusing you? Why did it happen? Why did you like it? Why you made a mess? What?” Honestly if Ophilia understood Abby correctly then the poor girl really needed to learn a few things about her own body sooner rather than later and it seemed like her ‘date’ at least had a general idea of what he was doing.

Abby put her head in her hands, completely mortified that she would have to repeat some of what she said. Taking a deep breath (after a sip of tea), but then she thought about what her cousin asked, “O-Oh! Everything is confusing! I don't like stuff like this Ophie! So why was it different with him!? I didn't feel the same way about Andy…Well, ummmn….I thought I felt the same way about Andy…I'm not sure now. Yes Ive had the ‘talk’. Ugh! I've had it so many times before this date I wanted to puke on the spot. Mother was giggling every single time she talked to me about it, it was so annoying.” She loved her mother with all her heart but sometimes the woman was more like a giggling school girl rather than a grown woman.
“I just don't know if this is something I should continue or…..I don't have experience with this.” Hell she thought she was going to marry some old dude and all she had to worry about was spending his money or something. That sounded terrible but that’s what shes seen in the movies that her mother made her watch. It's not like she would NEED the money anyway and in reality, she wasn't that kind of person. “He calls me princess and I hate it but it makes me feel….Erm….Well you know. And then he said good girl and that made that feeling worse!” Abby was standing up now, pacing and shaking her hands while she talked, “He picked me up TWICE Ophie! A-And I liked it! He gets in my bubble and I can't really think. That terrifies me.”

“First, calm down.” Ophilia watched as her cousin got more and more wound up. “Take a deep breath. In…. and out…” She followed her own advice and took a deep breath as well, using the time to really understand what Abby was saying. Or at least as much as she thought she understood. “Better?”
She waited until it seemed like Abby was once more on an even wavelength before putting her water down and leaning forward. “First of all, it's normal. It's biology and chemistry and all that crap. You feel ‘something’,” That actually got an air quote, “when around him. That means there is some, ‘him man, me woman’ part of your brain that sees him as a potential mate. Someone who would protect you. Someone who would provide for you and your eventual kids.” At least that's what all the books and self help websites said. “It's up to you if you want to actually go with that base instinct or not. But Abby,” She paused and hummed before finishing, “Guys who make you a physical mess like that are not as common as you would think. If he knows what he is doing, and he seems to if your flustered appearance is anything to go by, hold on to him. At least until you get bored of him.”
Ophilia was quite aware of just how thin ‘I’m a sex god’ men are on the ground. Plenty who think they are. A few who are decent. But actually, makes you tingle just thinking about it, men… none that she had interacted with. “If you think back on everything he did and found it not only pleasurable but also desiring him to do it again I say go for it. It’s not like we are in the middle ages where purity is required before marriage. ******** the guy and be done with it.”

Calm….Yeah she could do that.
Abby listened to Ophilia’s words and sat down, taking deep breaths to calm her nerves. “Y-Yeah. I'm sorry.” She picked up her cup of iced tea and took a sip, eyes widening slightly at the direct approach Ophie was taking. She was used to it since this kept her attention. But sometimes when she was up front like this and she was in her own head it startles her. So far, she understood what her older cousin was saying, her face turning redder and redder with each sentence she was told. Okay so primal instinct dictates that Ben would be a good ‘mate’ for her. Got it. No, there would be absolutely no discussion about kids since she was only 19 and wanted to be a prima ballerina as soon as she felt she had the qualifications.
She tilted her head at the bit about guys like that are not common. “So you're saying Ben is a rarity?” It certainly didn't seem like it. He got on her nerves constantly, invades her bubble, and calls her princess despite the fact that on multiple occasions Abby has requested he call her by her name. The man was insufferable so far with his stupid purple hair and stupid jeans….That she was not about to think about right now.
She took another sip of her tea then almost spit it back up at Ophie’s last sentence. Abby swallowed before continuing, “But we went on one date Ophie! Isn't there some sort of saying about being a whore if you do that?” Clearly she wasn't, but she didn't want to be perceived as such if she decided to do this.

A dark brow went up and she just looked at her younger cousin, a look that said so very much. “Abbs you ‘made a mess on his pant leg’ by your own admission. Pretty sure you're dating rules went out the window. Besides that whole ‘third base on the third date’ BS is so old school now it's practically over and done with.” She waved a manicured hand in the air as if waving the concept of dating rules away and picked back up her water.
“Look, as long as you're ok with it, and you damn well better be a willing participant or he will have to answer to us,” She shot her a look, her eyes cold and steely. The boy wouldn’t have to worry about the cops looking for him if he crossed a line that Abby didn’t like. He would have so much more to worry about. “Enjoy yourself. Let the vibe take you where it will. Just remember to use protection and make sure you two have aligning goals.” She finished her water and sat the glass down with a soft thump. “No sleeping with him if he has marriage in mind but all you have is sex. Or vice versa. Whatever floats your boat really. Speaking of ‘floating your boat’ lets talk more about that whole ‘good girl’ thing. Are you holding back on me?” Ophilia grinned at the younger woman, a cat who had gotten into the cream. She smelled an opportunity to mess with her, and maybe impart a few nuggets of wisdom herself.
