Even after Kawa had stopped bleeding, Mother kept her in the hut.  
Finally, a group of women led her to the women's bathing pool as 
if she didn't know the way.  There, she removed the wad of dry 
grass from her place; it didn't have any blood on it at all.  She 
buried it on the bank.  When she came out of the pool, Mother 
gave her a new skirt and reminded her that she must never remove 
it except in her own home or at the bathing pool.  No more dips 
in the sea for her.  She had known all that for years, but 
listened politely; women do.

That night was her menstrual feast, but people paid more 
attention to Father and Mother.  That was all right; what she 
really had been looking forward to was entry into the youth 
house.  She walked in the next morning and looked around.  Except 
for being built on the ground with a fire pit actually inside, it 
wasn't all that special in daylight.  

It wasn't all that special that evening, either.  The moon was 
bright; the men and boys were going sea fishing, and the few 
people in the youth house were all young men gathering their 
spears.  The next night was another feast.  She usually looked 
forward to those, but she'd still not seen a party in the youth 
house.

The next night there was one.  The fire pit was piled with 
driftwood, the young single people gathered in the house after 
dinner, and the dance began.  The dances were all ones she knew, 
and nobody commented when she joined the girls' line.  Aside from 
the smoke, the first hour of dancing passed like a dance on the 
beach, the girls in a line with their backs to the fire, and the 
boys in another line facing them.  Occasionally, one or another 
would step forward and try to perform a fancier step.

As time went on, however, there were more solo dancers; they 
seemed to pair up, and Kawa was not impressed with their steps.  
When the beat changed into a simpler one, an older girl took 
Kawa's hand and led her out of the line.  It was Itong, a cousin 
on her mother's side.  

Selan left the boys' line at the same time, and Itong delivered 
Kawa into his hands.  "Was I that bad a dancer?" Kawa asked with 
a blush.  

"Not at all.  Sit here and watch."  The lines were almost 
breaking up, although the clapping went on as always.  Some came 
out to sit on the floor as she had; a few more advanced into 
soloist positions.  The dance was even simpler; she could 
certainly have alternated feet and shaken her hips in time to 
that beat.  Then one girl removed her skirt; the boy in front of 
her removed his loin cloth.  

Kawa had seen naked men often enough; nobody wore clothes into 
the sea.  And she'd giggled at boys whose boy-sticks had made 
their loincloths stick out.  But she had only guessed what that 
erection looked like.  Now she saw one bobbing up and down and 
shaking from side to side.  And the naked girl in front of him 
was rolling her hips towards him and back.

She'd seen many flirtatious dances, but nothing like this was 
done in front of everybody on the beach.  When she could pull her 
eyes away, she saw that other couples were dancing naked for each 
other.  Finally, one of the girls led her partner out of the 
line.  Others followed, and Kawa saw motions in the dimness.  She 
didn't know where to hide her eyes.

"Don't worry," Selan whispered.  "You're one of us.  You can't 
tell what you see, but you are allowed to see everything."  He 
cupped her tiny breast with his hand, and watched over her 
shoulder.

She couldn't quite see the faces of the nearest couple; they were 
directly between her and the firelight.  The boy knelt down, his 
erection outlined as clearly as his profile.  The girl squatted 
on his thighs and then lay back.  Kawa suddenly recognized her as 
Molung, a girl from the other side of the village.  The boy put 
one hand on her breast, somewhat like Selan had done to 
her--although Molung's breast was larger than the hand.  His 
other hand was between her legs.  Someone began clapping again, a 
slow and simple rhythm.  Kawa joined in without taking her eyes 
off the couple. 

They stayed in that position for some minutes, and then--without 
either saying a word--the boy bent down over Molung.  He raised 
her hips a little from his thighs and then straightened up.  
Molung's hands were between them, and Kawa had no doubt where the 
man-stick had gone.

Her own place was itchy just from watching, and she couldn't 
guess what Molung was feeling in hers.  As she watched from a few 
feet away, the boy moved back and forth, almost as he had done in 
the dance.  Selan's man-stick was pressing against her, feeling 
much larger than the boy's looked.  Kawa was afraid for a moment 
that he wanted to put it in her, but he just held her and watched 
with her.

At first, she could see Molung's hair as darkness around which 
the firelight glinted off her skin.  Gradually, though, she 
raised her legs and wrapped them around the boy.  Not long after, 
Kawa heard both of them gasping in time with their motion.  
Similar sounds came from around her, accompanied by a few moans.  
Kawa had heard gasps in her own house often enough, but--even 
when she had peeked--all that she could see from Mother and 
Father were some vague motions in the darkness.

Then the boy grunted and thrust harder.  Molung kicked her feet 
in the air.  Then the couple came to a rest in the same position 
in which they had started.  She heard grunts and gasps from 
around the house, but they seemed fewer.

"Thank you, Selan," Itong said from the darkness behind her.  She 
blushed over what she had seen and what Itong knew she had seen.  
But that wasn't interesting Selan and Itong.  He let go of Kawa 
and moved back as he sat up.  Itong removed her skirt as he 
removed his loincloth.  His man-stick, if not quite as large as 
it had seemed pressed against her, was larger than the boy's.  
The way he was sitting, Kawa could see it directly between his 
legs.

"I'm always ready to please you," Selan said.  Itong stood with 
her back towards Kawa and her legs on either side of his.  These 
were not silhouetted against the fire.  The light was on them, 
and someone threw another two pieces of driftwood on the fire.  
From her position, Kawa could see up between Itong's legs.  Her 
lower lips were prominent and parted slightly.  Selan must have 
had an even better view.  He ran his hand up her thigh until he 
reached those lips.  Kawa could see him fingering them, petting 
them, parting them.  She could see them becoming shinier in the 
firelight, as if they were covered by sweat.

Finally, Itong sat down in Selan's lap.  She reached for his 
man-stick and guided it within the lips that Selan was still 
holding open.  Kawa couldn't quite see the lips when the two 
lovers were joined, but she could still see the root of Selan's 
man-stick and the sack underneath.  Every time that the couple 
rolled away from her, the man-stick came out part way, and she 
could see that it was shinier yet.

People took up the clapping again, all around the room, a very 
simple slow beat.  The couple seemed to move in time with that 
clapping.  Selan fell back until he was lying down, and Itong 
moved up and down over him. She sat up very straight and 
shuddered as she lost the beat.  A moment later, Selan bucked 
upward raising them both off the floor.  He grunted, moved in 
that impossible position, and then collapsed.  Itong fell on top 
of him, and Kawa could see his man-stick clearly in her place, 
and then see it come out.  

Some of the youths made their way home after the fire died down.  
Kawa wasn't going to be one of them; far too long had she looked 
forward to the right to stay in the youth house.

Gradually she got used to that right.  She'd drop in to see what 
was happening several times a day, or duck inside to escape the 
new duties flooding in on her.  A few days after her first night 
in the house, she ducked inside to find a group of boys who had 
stolen some palm liquor; bad boys were always doing that.  They 
offered her a cup, and she drank it.  She started to feel strange 
and ducked out.  Several girls had suggested that it was a bad 
idea to be the only girl with a group of boys.

Once she arrived to find two young boys peeking in the door.  
Almost sure that they were too young to be allowed inside, she 
challenged them.  "What do you know anyway?" one asked.  "You're 
not any older than we are."  But an older boy came along just 
then to twist two ears.  The young ones scampered off.  This 
became the subject of conversation that night.

"Mutchin is way too young," one of the older girls said. "He's 
just his brother's shadow.  But why not Popoli.  The young girls 
were teasing him the other day about the bulge in his loincloth.  
It was a decent size, and he seems to be like that all the time 
now."

"I think that Topal is older," another said.  "He's certainly a 
bit taller.  If we let a boy in, it should be Topal."  Many 
chimed in about which was older, without any decision being 
reached.

"We have other business first," one of the oldest boys finally 
contributed.  Several of the older girls chimed in agreement.  
Everyone could speak; most did.  But the older youths carried the 
day.  And the oldest girls counted more heavily than the boys 
their own age, since the women as old as the oldest boys were 
married and out of the youth house.  

There were usually more boys than girls, because of this and 
because some girls were kept at home with duties or their blood.  
Boys drummed for the dances, boys dropped out of their line and 
clapped the beat, and there was always a boy to hold Kawa if she 
wanted that.  Most of those had some sort of relationship with 
girls of Kawa's kindred. 

The night after the discussion, Kawa stayed in the line until she 
was exhausted.  Those who planned to be dancing at the end made 
sure that they had rest in the middle, but she needn't worry 
about that.  She left the girls' line and dropped near Luwil, one 
of the oldest boys.  He put one hand on her arm, and waited for 
her response.  She leaned back against him while she caught her 
breath.  For a while they just watched the dancers pair off or 
drop out.

Then his hand trailed over her torso to find her nipple.  She had 
become used to this familiarity, and usually enjoyed it.  Instead 
of cupping her tiny breast, Luwil teased her nipple with his 
fingers until it stiffened.  This felt even better.  By the time 
the dancers were removing their garments, he had moved back and 
forth from one nipple to another several times.  The teasing made 
the dances more exciting; the suggestive motions of the naked 
dancers made her tickled nipples feel more erotic.

As one couple settled close to them, Luwil left the nipples alone 
to stroke her leg.  At first she missed the tickles, but soon his 
touch on her inner thigh was just as exciting.  He lifted her 
skirt as his hand went higher.  She worried that people might see 
between her legs, but she realized that no one would look while 
naked bodies coupled among them.  The girl in front of them had 
tired of the boy's teasing.  She grasped his man-stick and 
settled herself on it.  As she did this, Luwil's hand reached the 
top of Kawa's thigh.  Rather than stopping, it continued to her 
place.  She stiffened.  His hand stopped when she did, but it did 
not retreat.

The couple in front of them were moving more rapidly now, and she 
could hear their gasps separately from those of other couples in 
the room.  She could feel Luwil's breath on her neck.  Nothing 
would happen, dozens would punish any attempt at rape.  As she 
relaxed, his hand moved again.  The fingers which had teased her 
nipples did the same to her outer lips.  It was even more 
exciting, or was that excitement due to the moan that she heard 
from somewhere in the darkness behind her?  Now Luwil's finger 
had found the entrance to her place and was rubbing around that 
area.  When the girl in front of her stiffened in satisfaction, 
Luwil rubbed upward in her slit.  It was as if she'd been hit by 
a lightning bolt.

She stiffened almost as much as the girl had.  Then Luwil removed 
his finger and pressed her back against him.  She felt the 
hardness of his man-stick press against her back.  They lay like 
that until the couple separated and lay down together.  Then 
Luwil moved back a few feet and lay down apart from her.

The day after that experience, Kawa felt tender down there and 
queasy in her stomach.  She blamed Luwil a little and stayed home 
from the youth house that night.  The next day, however, her 
blood came again.  It hadn't been Luwil's fault after all, and 
her experience with him  had been exciting.  When she was clean 
again, she went back with a new hunger.  

She'd always been aware that most of the couples went into the 
shadows near the walls.  Some even dropped out of the dance 
separately and fully dressed, and then met at the edges.  
Watching those seemed less polite, and certainly less 
instructive, than watching the couples near the light of the 
fire.  That night, however, there was enough sound from one 
corner to draw the attention of everyone who wasn't totally 
engaged right then.  

Itong, it finally became clear, had found Sedan making love to 
another girl, Pindropol by name.  A boy was angry, too, but Kawa 
didn't recognize his voice.  Most of the youths went home that 
night instead of staying.  The next day, sides were forming.  
Kawa was grateful for Sedan's gentleness that first night, but 
she had to side with Itong, her relative.

By the time that the quarrel was old, several boys had held Kawa 
under her skirt.  Luwil had done so twice more, more excitingly 
than the other boys.  One night, there was a large supply of palm 
liquor that some boys had stolen.  Kawa got a sip during the 
dance and another sip after dropping out.  Soon the only girl in 
the dance was Aluan, whose menstruation feast had been the one 
before Kawa's.  One boy brought Aluan a cup of the palm liquor, 
much more than Kawa had received.  She danced more fiercely after 
the drink.  Soon boys began dropping out, some because other 
youths urged them.

Luwil was one of the six boys still in the dance.  He removed his 
loincloth, and Kawa could see his hard man-stick bouncing up and 
down.  The others followed suit.  They were dancing in a circle 
around Aluan.  She danced against their beat, a complex solo.  
Then each of them held out a ball of betel.  Aluan chose the ball 
held by Kalowin, a tall boy with smooth skin.  The other boys 
formed a circle around the two of them as she chewed the betel 
while still dancing.  Another cup of the palm liquor was passed 
to Kalowin, who held it so Aluan could drink.  Finally, he 
removed her skirt.  

She put her hand in his and followed him to a low wooden platform 
made from a split and smoothed log.  The other dancers dropped 
out of the line, and Luwil moved behind Kawa.  He turned her 
until they had a good view of the platform.  She was sitting on 
her heels, with Luwil squatting right behind her.

Kalowin bent over and whispered in Aluan's ear, then held her 
against him as his hands roved over her.  As they did, Luwil's 
hands were all over Kawa as well.  Only one drum was playing, a 
monotonous slow beat; hands took up that beat, and Kawa joined 
in.  The couple stood like that until Kalowin whispered in 
Aluan's ear once more.  Then he called "Hands."

Two girls stepped forward, and each took one of Aluan's hands.  
They walked her backwards until she was sitting on the very edge 
of the log.  The drum beat sped slightly.  Kalowin knelt between 
Aluan's legs and began licking and sucking at her nipples.  His 
hand went between her legs.  Slowly, the girls holding her hands 
eased Aluan back on the log.  Kalowin leaned forwards, keeping 
his mouth on her tiny breasts.  The drum was pounding louder and 
more slowly, and they were all clapping along.  Kalowin 
straightened slowly, his head coming away from Aluan and his 
loins moving forward between her legs.  His man-stick must have 
been touching her by now.  

The drum stopped so suddenly that Kawa clapped once by herself.  
Almost as if that clap were a signal, Kalowin pressed forwards.  
He stopped when his groin was pressed into Aluan's.  He was 
looking straight at her face, and his hands started rubbing over 
her nipples.  The girl holding her right hand whispered in her 
ear.  Aluan nodded, and the boy began to move back and forth.  
The drum resumed, and the clapping with it.

Luwil wasn't clapping, though.  One of his hands played with her 
nipples.  They were sticking out straight and were harder than 
they ever got in the coldest water.  His other hand had parted 
her skirt from behind and was tickling her place.  

He leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Spread your legs 
apart."

She was afraid that people would see, then she realized that all 
eyes were on the drama being acted out on the split log.  She 
wiggled until her feet were beside her hips, and her knees were 
well apart.  He teased her place and passed one finger between 
her lips.  She enjoyed those sensations while she turned her eyes 
back to the log.  

Aluan had raised her legs to encircle Kalowin's waist.  Now, as 
he moved back, Kawa could just see his man-stick stretching 
between the two of them.  Then his hips would move forwards, and 
the sleekness would press into Aluan.  He moved with the beat, 
and Aluan did too, if only very slightly.  

Luwil's finger also moved in time with the drum.  It traced the 
outlines of the lips around her place, forward at one beat, 
backward at the next.  Kawa moved against the stroke, hardly able 
to keep her own motions as slow.  

Suddenly, Kalowin was moving much faster than the beat.  He 
slammed into Aluan each time, and she arched upward in time with 
him, rather than the drum.  

When Luwil's finger stroked along the center of her place, the 
thrill made Kawa forget the beat entirely.  Luwil pulled her back 
against his chest to hold her upright while her belly flamed and 
her place tried to grab his still-stroking finger.

When she could spare a little attention for the central couple 
again, Kalowin was sprawled forwards with his face on Aluan's 
belly.  The girls who had been holding Aluan's hands pulled him 
back until he could kneel on his own.  They helped Aluan sit up, 
and then stand.  A third girl came forward with a cloth and wiped 
between Aluan's legs.  They all went off into the darkness with 
her.

Luwil removed his hand from between Kawa's legs.  He blew across 
the back of her neck, making her shiver as if a ghost had gone 
by.  She straightened a little, and he eased his hold.  A moment 
later, they were two separate parts of the audience.  He was 
sitting farther from where she was kneeling than another girl 
would have at a feast.

When the last of the palm liquor came around, he said something 
to the bearers.  They brought Kawa another draft.  She hardly 
needed it, though.  Her head was already spinning from the 
earlier experience.  The next morning, she felt much less merry.  
Some of the other youths looked equally dismal.

She felt well enough that evening to join the dance line again.  
Again, she dropped out early.  Aluan, she noticed, sat out the 
whole dance -- and sat by herself.  Kawa, on the other hand, 
always had a young man with her.  She dropped out later each 
night, but she still didn't dance when anyone was naked.  One 
night, shortly after she dropped out and went to sit with Selan, 
Aluan joined the dance.  Nobody commented; nobody made a fuss; 
but Kawa could tell that everybody noticed.  Kalowin stepped 
forward in front of Aluan, but she didn't step out.  She did step 
out when another boy, Wabe, danced in front of her. 

One or two pairs were concerned with their own dances.  But no 
other pairs formed while those two were in the lines.  After what 
seemed like a long time to Kawa, Aluan removed her skirt.  Wabe 
removed his loincloth.  They danced for a minute more, and then 
they moved off into the shadows.  The clapping became much 
louder; other couples moved off; other boys moved in front of 
their line, other girls in front of theirs.  Kawa's eyes couldn't 
see Wabe and Aluan, but her mind could picture perfectly what 
they were doing.  She found that, oddly enough, that picturing 
made her more excited than direct views of other couples had made 
her.

These days, Kawa got her choice of the older boys to sit out with 
her.  She realized that they were trying to impress her so she 
would select them when it was her time to be the center of 
attention like Aluan had been.  She wasn't sure she was ready for 
that, but their interest flattered her.  People weren't 
interested in impressing Kawa very often.

One night, Topal came to the youth house.  "Go away," one of the 
girls said.

"No, wait," another said.  There was much discussion back and 
forth.  Topal, who was embarrassed -- but also pleased -- to have 
the older boys and girls talking about him, finally joined the 
group.  There was dancing that night, but no pairs formed.

The next night, Itong stood in front of Topal while he was 
dancing.  He moved out of the line and did a fancy step.  Itong 
did only the basic dance, but she removed her skirt.  You could 
see Topal's boy stick push out the front of his loincloth.  One 
of the other boys whispered something to him, and he removed his 
loincloth.  Both of them danced a little more, and you could see 
Topal's boy stick bounce up and down with his steps.  Itong held 
out her hand, and Topal took it.  She led him to the log 
platform.  Topal sat down, and then leaned back.  All the drums 
but one fell silent.  That one beat very slowly.

Itong stood over him, squatted right above his middle.  She held 
his boy stick while she lowered herself upon it.  Topal stiffened 
under her and groaned.  A moment later, he relaxed and lay 
breathing heavily on the platform.  The drum quickened and others 
joined in.  Kawa looked forward to what she would see the next 
night, but she bled that morning.  She not only missed whatever 
happened in the youth house, but the menstrual feast for a girl 
from the other side of the village.

"Look who's here," Selan called out when she returned.  Kawa hid 
her face.  She wasn't used to people making a fuss over her, 
especially males older than she was.  While it embarrassed her, 
it also pleased her.  

Early that evening, she came forward from the line to dance a 
solo more intricate than was usual in the youth house.  When she 
dropped out breathing heavily, Luwil dropped out of the boys' 
line too.  He squatted down next to her.  "That was a fine 
dance," he said.  She hid her face again.  He said nothing more, 
but sat next to her watching the dancing.  

When she had recovered her energy, the first few couples were 
forming.  She didn't want to rejoin the line when they were doing 
that.  When the first boy removed his loincloth, she expected 
Luwil to go back to the boys' line.  Instead, he moved closer to 
her.  While she and he watched the pairs, while everyone who 
wasn't pairing off watched the pairs, Luwil's hands were on her 
and his voice was whispering in her ear.  

When the single drum started on its monotonous beat, he suggested 
that she kneel instead of sitting.  When she squatted on her 
heels, his right hand parted the grass of her skirt.  While his 
left hand stroked her breasts, while his breath tickled her ear, 
his right hand found its way to her place. 

One couple was so close that Kawa could have touched them by 
sprawling forward without moving her feet.  At first, the girl -- 
Masina, a cousin on her father's side -- lay back while the boy 
-- Bischu, almost a man, really -- sucked on her breast like a 
great baby.  His hand was busy between her legs, too.  Probably he 
was stroking Masina's place as Luwil was stroking Kawa's.  

Suddenly, or it seemed sudden to Kawa, Bischu knelt between 
Masina's legs.  She raised her knees and spread them apart.  He 
moved between them.  Kawa couldn't tell whether the heat she was 
feeling in her place was from Luwil's fingers or from her 
sympathy for what Masina was feeling.  The drum was all alone, 
beating slowly.  Bischu moved in and out of Masina in time to 
that beat; Luwil's fingers moved across Kawa's place at that same 
agonizingly slow pace.

Bischu sped up at the end, but Luwil didn't.  Kawa threw herself 
back against Luwil as a flame consumed her.  It was as if the 
fire pit had been dug in her belly.  When she next noticed the 
pair in font of her, Bischu was getting up from lying over 
Masina.  His man stick was all shiny in the firelight.

"May I go now?" Luwil whispered in her ear.  "Will you be all 
right?"

All right?  She had never felt this good before.  She nodded, and 
Luwil got up.  She couldn't see where he went.  He disappeared 
into the shadows, probably with Namu, his regular friend.  Kawa 
couldn't complain; it was kind of her to let Luwil sit with Kawa.  
And she wasn't ready to disappear into the shadows with him.  Or 
was she?  If Luwil's hands could make her feel this good, what 
would his man stick do?

A few evenings later, somebody had stolen palm liquor again.  
Early in the evening, Itong danced right behind her and said 
"drop out now" in a voice that only Kawa could hear.  She was a 
little disturbed, but Itong was senior.  She sat beside Luwil.  
Maybe he would use his hands on her again. 

He didn't touch her, though.  When a boy came along carrying the 
palm liquor, Luwil told him to give Kawa a drink.  He did, a 
healthy swig.  Luwil stopped another boy with the same 
directions.  This was more than Kawa had ever drunk in a single 
evening, but Luwil did it again.  Then he got up and held a hand 
out to her.  "Time for you to rejoin the dance," he said.

She worried for a moment whether she could dance like this; she 
had trouble even walking.  But the beat was slowing.  People 
weren't displaying their fanciest steps.  Just stepping up and 
down and pushing her hips back and forth in  time to the beat 
seemed acceptable.  Indeed, several boys began dancing in front 
of her.  Only then did Kawa figure out what was happening.

This was her night?  She pushed her groin further forward at the 
thought, and stamped with her feet further apart.  The fierce 
dancing first drove the liquor to her head, and then cleared it.  
When a boy came up with another cup of the liquor, she danced 
even more simply while draining it.  Soon, she noticed that she 
was the only girl still in the dance.  The boys were no longer 
facing her in a line; they were in a circle around her.  One boy 
took off his loin cloth, and so did the others.

Luwil was in the circle, of course.  So were Bischu, Wabe, 
Kalowin, and Selan.  Luwil was a real temptation.  And Selan had 
been so knowing her first time in the youth house; this was 
another first time, maybe she should trust it to him.  And Aluan 
had chosen Wabe; maybe she knew something Kawa didn't.  But Kawa 
had never sat with Wabe; he'd never made himself available.  Why 
choose him now?  And Selan, while he'd been nice enough to Kawa, 
had been really nasty to Itong.  She hadn't decided yet when the 
boys all held out balls of betel to her.

She chose Luwil's.  She chewed it slowly while dancing the simple 
step.  She didn't need the betel right then, being already dizzy 
from the dance, let alone the palm liquor.  Luwil moved into the 
center of the circle along with her.  The other boys were dancing 
around the two of them while they performed the simple step.  

Not knowing anything else to do, she continued the dance.  Luwil 
got a full cup of palm liquor and held it to her lips.  She 
didn't need any more that evening, and this -- by itself -- was 
more than she had drunk at any time before that night.  Suddenly, 
though, she did need the drink.  She was thirsty, and she might 
well need the forgetfulness that palm liquor notoriously brought.  
She gulped it down, feeling its warmth spread through her dancing 
legs. 

She couldn't go further.  She couldn't remove her skirt with all 
these people watching her.  But she didn't have to.  Luwil 
removed it for her.  His man stick was jumping up and down in the 
dance, sometimes hitting his flat belly, sometimes pointing 
straight at Kawa.

After what seemed like a long time, while she grew more and more 
embarrassed, Luwil took her hand and led her to the platform. 
"Don't be embarrassed," he said.  How could she help but be 
embarrassed with all eyes upon her, what they would do was 
embarrassing enough if they were to hide out in the shadows.  But 
he caressed her, his hands touching everywhere.  "All the girls 
looking on have gone through this, themselves," he whispered to 
her.  That was true. 

When he took her hand, she followed him to the platform with 
steady steps if not a steady heartbeat.  Two girls came forward 
to hold her hands and help her down as if she were a grandmother.  
They kept hold of her hands, though, as Luwil squatted down in 
front of her.

He was between her legs, and his hands were everywhere.  He'd 
touched her before, brought her great pleasure with his touch; 
but, now, his hands never stayed on her place long enough to 
bring that pleasure.  He sucked at her breasts as if he was a 
baby, but it didn't feel like he was a baby.  It felt exciting, 
as exciting as his hands felt on her place.

She was so excited that she took a moment to notice that he was 
kneeling directly above her.  She could see his man stick, and 
she knew where it was headed.  She wanted to cover herself, give 
herself more time.  The girls were still holding her hands, 
though.  She felt him against her place; his man stick was hot, 
much hotter than his hands had been.  The drum and the clapping 
stopped suddenly. 

Then he went in.  She hadn't thought he would fit, but he did.  
It didn't even hurt.  She did feel full.  And his motions rubbed 
her in a new and interesting way.  She accepted his motion, then 
she moved against him to increase that sensation.  The drum 
started up again, and she and Luwil moved in time to it.  It was 
a different motion.  Her feet were practically still; when they 
did move, they merely waved in the air.  Her hips were what 
moved, and his.  He was stroking within her, now -- rubbing her 
place with his man stick every time he moved.  And it felt good, 
felt fulfilling.  This was what she was meant to be doing with 
all these new sensations.

Then he sped up.  She tried to match his motions, but couldn't 
quite.  She felt his man stick pulse within her place.  Suddenly, 
he dropped on her.  He was breathing heavily -- so was she.  But 
she wanted him to go on.

He didn't, though.  After a little bit, he got up.  As he moved 
off her body, his man stick moved out of her place.  She could 
see it, looking as soft as if he'd come out of the sea -- and as 
wet.  The girls who had held her hands helped her up, and another 
came forward with a cloth to wipe her place.  It needed wiping.  
Everything Luwil had shot into her was dripping out.

She went home that night, and didn't even go to the youth house 
the next two days.  The third day, though, she had to carry 
Ombomb -- a tiny cousin -- most of the day.  He was in the midst 
of teething, terribly fretful.  That evening she handed him to 
Sono, another cousin who hadn't bled yet, and ducked into the 
youth house.  Sono wouldn't be allowed in, and Ombomb's parents 
wouldn't try.  She watched the dances for a while, but nobody sat 
with her.

When she joined the line, people politely didn't pay her special 
attention.  She had missed this.  She was enjoying the dancing 
when Bischu started dancing in front of her.  Why not?  She came 
forward and danced her best solo.  He didn't take off his loin 
cloth.  Instead he held out his hand.  She took it and followed 
him toward the darkness away from the fire.
