Excellent story and sooo real. The humanity and emotions of both were well sculpted and the plot just seemed to flow together, always the sign of a good story. I've read a lot, started some fifty years ago and your story has to be in the top 5 percent. Thank you

This deserves all the accolades it gets. A marvelous read, whether for the dialogue, the emotions, or the well-crafted characters.

You succeed where it is important most as an author; the immersion of the reader. You should be proud of your work.

I have no idea what other stories entered the competition but I can tell the best one won. Great story.

I could easily see you making it into a multiple chapter story and expanding the story line. Keep up the great writing.

It is fun to read a story which could be founded in fact. Even more so one as well crafted as this one.

Thanks.

This story was one of the best I have read on the site. You are an amazing writer!

Great story, great sex...all around winner! Good job!

My kind of ending. Great, keep up the good stuff..

You have done a wonderful job with this story - there were almost no errors (there were a couple, but I am one of those people that frequently find errors in the books that I read), there was a great storyline, the dialogue was not forced, and you did not make the horrid mistake of using a bra size to describe Sam/Samantha/Sammi's breasts. Good work.

Absolutely Best short story I've ever read! I've read a lot of junk here, some mediocre, a few quality, but Never this good! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!!

I really couldn't ask for anything more. This story resonated with me so much it was crazy. I've been texting my boyfriend throughout reading it, saying how well the characters' actions and emotions lined up with ours. From every sex position change to the surprise first and uncertain "I love you" while making love it matched up with us, so I enjoyed it in a very personal way. Aside from that, the writing was generally excellent. The plot, the character development, the way physical descriptions unfolded in the story rather than being bluntly stated, the way it was sexually satisfying to read but was not superficial or rushed (I trembled a bit while reading sans any other stimulus), the way emotions were injected into the story without being over the top or unrealistic... This was the best story I've read, hands down. I'll be reading it with my man in the near future so he can enjoy it, too. Thank you :)

I can see why you won top spot. Keep writing

just did a google search around this subject for the first time and this is the first story i have read. i can totally relate to this. masterful work.. i hope i can find more like this to read. thanks x

I loved how he brought up the fact that he was working with Sam during his phone conversation with Jen, and then asked himself why he had done it.

I defy any man to say he's never had that internal dialogue with himself.

Another great story by a great author. So far I haven't read any that I haven't liked.

Wow. That was just super nice. I loved how you so perfectly captured just how truly dense and downright stupid men can be. And when you add in the nerves of first time jitters, well, it's just amazing women put up with us at all. I look forward to reading more of your work.

Wonderful and don't change a thing. This story is the best,

that brings the reader right into remembering their first time. Can't beat love for the best experience. My first was 1963 and my meddling mother screwed that up. I wanted to marry her. I have kept track and learned her husband had passed. Now trying to work up the nerve a do a dinner. You never forget your first and the love is still there for me. Wish me luck.

Thanks again for this touching story. Seniors can still love too.

This story was very romantic and sexy. I love it, it was more than a erotic story, it was a love story as well. Awesome job.

Amazing! What a perfect story! So romantic yet perfectly erotic at the same time.

You sir(or madam :P) are an amazing writer, I really like the way you helped us feel something for the characters. Please write more stories like this!! 5 stars!! :)

I agree with all of the previous, positive comments. Thank you for sharing your efforts with the rest of us!

A lot of thought and work went into it, I know myself that creating and writing such a story is sexually gratifying and a turn on, and to know that readers have enjoyed it, is an extra high, too often a great story without feedback, makes writer ask themselves “was it worth it?”, Yes, it was and hope to see more from you in the future.

Sorry, that no name but Anonymous, but by accident discovered this site and first story I read, not a member yet.

Damn, 3 fucking pages without even tits, pussy, or a hardon. Pages 4-6 should have been introduced much earlier. And what did this have to do with earth day? Come on litter control just doesn't hack it.

No way you can leave this story here.

No way you can just drop the bombshell that Sammi would enjoy Justin cumming on her FACE and on her in general ... and then not write a follow up chapter. Heh Heh Heh! You definitely have to pick up where you left off and follow the Facial Festivities!

Great story. Very well-written.

Never got bored, thoroughly enjoyed reading it, looking forward to your next piece.

Sean.

I loved this story. Love is so much more important just sex, and I find erotic stories that emphasize the central role of love to be by far the most satisfying. Finishing this story is a fabulous way to end my day and begin a truly restful night's sleep . . . . Thank you again!

Got really caught up in the story and although knew where it was going, was impressed at the timing and progression. Good grammar and very well written.

That was the sweetest 'First Time' ever.

So right. 'That's what friends are for.'

I guess it's because I am late but the damned system will not let me add my 5*

You captured something real special here. Congratulations!

Sometimes we do not see what is in front of us. I can totally relate to this story. I wasn't as lucky as Justin because I was stupid.

Wish you had included the phone call to Jen ....

great story, you should make a sequel

Great story. Please add more

This was way beyond good. I like making love way better than just fucking although each has its place. Now, if they had just been siblings, I would have been in heaven.

Best friends turned lovers! Woot! I love your writing style, too!

Fantastic story, better than some books i have paid for! I want to go make love now!

This is a great story! Keep writing like this :-)

Definitely liked this one alot, great job.

How can you not tell the size of her Boobs when she goes swimming in a Tshirt.

I'm guilty of not always leaving comments. But this one touched me in many cool ways. I found your characters to be believable and the story sweet. Also believable is the motivation of each of your characters. Congrats!

That's exactly how I want my first time would be. A romantic hot sex with someone I trust and care for. :D

this one hit close to home, sure it was porn, but... shit, this one made me cry

Realistic, emotional, hot, and really well written. Excellent. Thanks!+++

I've read quite a lot of stories and this is legitimately the best one I've read in about a year and a half. This is pretty much, for me, my definition of a 5 star story. Well done

Really, really, really, ...really good!! The pace is fantastic!

Superb-the dialogue, pacing and really really hot.

The best-ever first time I've read....

"Made me cry" is right, man! Shit, after reading this, I'm praying that my first time will be as beautiful as this =(. So thanks a lot, I had no standards before reading this, but now the bar's been set ultra high!

This is such a good story that once you finish reading it, you feel like sooo whats next? pleaseeee continue this awesome story

This was such good writing. Everything was perfect. I loved the characters and the plot. I thought they were all developed nicely and it was a smooth read..not too rushed but not slow either. Had me in tears at the end. I'm a sap. I love a good, sweet love story. So thank you! Never stop writing, because you have such talent. Very very much enjoyed your story!!!!!!!!!!

LC, you have the best flowing dialogue I have come across (and to :) ) on lit. The conversations sound so real I can see them in my mind as plain as day. The one liners, the humor, and best of all the emotions just come across as so vivid and real. You have a true gift. I think Karma is still my favorite from you, but this one is very close.

they both actually liked each other and cared.

truly outstanding.

this is the 1st story by this author that i have seen ,

was on the "similar" stories list ..

always nice to discover a profile that way ..

is a bit like getting an unexpected present.

lol now i just have to find the time this week to read this Author's other work.

ooooooooggghhhhh .. the hardships we face for the sake of literature. lol

xxxhugsxxx

TwistedOliver.

Superb story.. I loved it because of romance between two friends and the way you handled it. Keep up the good work..

Reads well, fun and sexy. Get a human proof reader. Spell check will get you every time. Great dialog. People I might know.

A great story of young love.

As I always comment here when I finally read a story with an actual story in it, It was beautiful. Also not everyone comes here to jerk off; aspiring writers too or people that are just looking for a way to escape reality for an hour or two. Lastly as always I feel the need to thank you for this beautiful story .

With all of my emotionally unstable heart thank you for this craft of love.

Thanks for this uplifting tale, Lovecraft68. Dan

I like the way this story offers character development mixed with believable sex.

"Those lashes, along with her huge brown eyes, she used to good effect on me, as well as her older siblings and her father. " This sentence make no sense! There were a couple other places where the sentences were awkward and needed revision, but overall, good story.

Enjoyed that great read

This is so much along the lines of my first time with my wife. While we were both previously married we were best friends before our first time with each other and still are 28 years later.

SAMMI LOVED HIM BUT HE WAS CLUELESS. SO WHEN SHE CAME OVER AS SAMMI NOT SAM I THIUGHT HE WAS GOING TO STROKE OUT. A VERY GOOD STORY AND THE WOUND UP TOGETHER BUT IN A MUCH BETTER WAY. SURE THEY ARE STILL GOOD FRIENDS BUT ON A MUCH GREATER LEVEL. 5 STARS PLUS.

I have watched and read a lot of porn in my life time. As of lately my tastes have become more refined. That being said this story was hands down one of if not the best stories I have read here on Lit. I have been a lurker for quite awhile but this story made me want to comment. It's a story with meaning and I like how it has a slow build up. Excellent work, I hope to read more about these two in the future.

I always prefer such good stories than watching porn

because porn is repetitive and has no emotions in them

I love literotica

Wow I really loved this story i`d rather read a good ,long story rather than watching a short porno with no emotions.Your´s was just a perfect story I liked every part of it.

5stars

used goods girl calls other used goods girl a slut, shames 'best friend' for the choices she herself made and proceeds to bang him.

other than the fact that MC didn't respond to her stupid arguments because the author reached in to lobotomize him, it was pretty enjoyable.

I've found that going back to a story after a few months and re-reading it slowly, helps me to see things that I missed the first time. First time through I gave it five stars, and thought it was a good story. This time I noticed the way you captured Justin's inner vacillation in his opinion of the buxom beauty who was using him, but wouldn't let his doubts about her rise to the surface of his conscious thoughts. He was whipsawed by his disgust with his father, his devotion to his mother, his doubts about his girlfriend, his wish to do the right thing, his need for sexual satisfaction, his respect for his best friend's opinion, and his suppressed curiosity about what she looks like with all those loose clothes removed. If that's not a teenager, I must have been dealing with another species all these decades!

I found this to be a work of greater depth than most of the stories on this site, including my own. The final act, starting when Sam opens her coat, was masterfully handled. Justin's delight with Sam's many faceted seduction, his confusion about what to do next, and his constant wonderment about whether this could really be happening, make great reading for anyone who remembers what it's like to be a boy in a man's body.

On this site as well as TV and print novels, we are repeatedly exposed to heroes who are surprised by nothing, never waver as they cling tenaciously to their first decision, and battle through all obstacles to their final triumph, just like John Wayne and Clint Eastwood. Thank you for taking the opposite approach and reminding us how it really felt to stumble through those late teenage years!

Thank you for sharing your view of teenage lust and self doubt. It's a good yard and an artistic triumph!

You made me cry alittle.

This was an amazing story. I have used literotica for many years (9 years almost) and this is the first I have felt compelled to not only vote (5 stars) but to leave a comment. Absolutely the best story I have ever read on this site, hands down.

This may be the hottest story I've ever read on this site. Well played. Well played indeed.

Very well done. Thank you!

I did enjoy this story a lot, but it would have been more intriguing for me as a woman if your vocabulary spanned a little wider than 'tits' when referring to breasts. It became a little distracting when said a hundred times in a row. Just a tip.

Keep going with these persons. I'm eager to be with them in the 12th and 22nd chapters (and all between...) as Justin and Sammi make their way through high school, university, marriage, jobs, parenthood, ... you get my point.

These persons will continue to grow and contribute to their community for many Earth Days. I'm an old guy and see much richness and growth in this story.

PLEASE keep this story going! I love these characters and look forward to following their story! Thanks!!!!

and a fantastic beginning? I'll be checking your profile in hope that there is more of these two wonderful characters.

Jason

This is the first story I really have every had a desire to comment on. That was amazing. Best story I have read on this site.

A great story, especially for a first! :) The last two pages (maybe some others but I dont remember) really need editing, some of the important lines were screwed up, missing words, wrong person indicated, things like that.

"I... I'm so in love you." Kinda ruined the moment when your distracted with the fact that there was a word left out! Lol.

Otherwise a really well put together story! Thanks for writing it!

CONGRATULATIONS. This story has it all. You keep us turning each page with increasing anticipation with the way you pace the story and let the tension build. The sex scenes are as good as they come (pun intended) and your characters reach their peak at just the right moment. You truly know your craft and deserve the fans you have earned here. I look forward to reading more of your stories. THANKS FOR SHARING.

This was just simply exhilarating. Thanks so much for sharing - I think a lot of us have had similar experiences, and the whole thing rang very true.

I'm in love with Sam, Sammi, Samantha.

What a marvellous story. deserves 50*

we should try to understand a friend who realy cares about us like sam

OMG this is the best story on here I've read. I'm a guy that's often called too nice and too caring also I have issues with crying, it's just nearly imposible for me to cry, and you got me to start balling with how much Samantha cares and how nice she is.

Great story. Thank you for writing it!

This is probobly one of the best reads on this site. I loved the whole plot development and watching (or rather reading) the story play out! I also enjoyed how you spent time to help us understand the charecters and made them seem more human to the reader rather give basic details like many other stories on this site. You simply must make a sequel to this story. I for one would love to see Justin and Sam's relationship grow aswell as seeing Justins confrontation with Jen. Keep up the good work! 10/10 Would read again!

I can't say enough about how well this was written and how much it touched me. This second read was like visiting old friends and appreciating them with their faults and their motivations. I'll have to check out your other stories.

Extremely well written and the perfect length. Beautiful detail and just all around ama zing story. Probly the first erotic story I've ever cried reading lol 5 stars hands down. There needs to be more of this on this site lol

I have read this story 3 times now and each time it gets better. If your future stories are as good as this, your first, we are in for a real treat. Keep writing. It would be a shame not to share your talent with us.

Most excellent! Easy to ready, keeps your interest, and the reader is rewarded for time invested. A sequel? Yes please.

So hot it made my eyes roll. And I love the name Sammi. Bravo, excellent effort.

I loved it. Brought a tear to my eyes. Thanks for sharing.

This was so well written it has the honor of being the second story I finished AFTER...Finishing. Beautiful.

i could not leave my screen for a second once i started reading this bind blowing story

I couldn't look away for a moment, I agree with bestreading, a sequel would be amazing! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us.

This story was amazing. I agree with there being a sequel.

Loved it. I hit the wrong button. I really wanted to rate at 5 stars.

Wow

I continued reading even after I...finished. Loved the build up, the plot, and the fact you were able to incorporate emotion while also keeping it humorous and hot. Not some cheesy love story. Good job!

That was an amazing story I hope you make a sequel.

You are truely a brilliant writer and my favourite by far, you have to finish this story.. I would love to heard what Jens says when she comes around that night as she had planned and Sam answers the door only to be told to fuck off bitch he's mine or something like that. Also what his mother and friends says when they finds out its Sam and not Jen who took his cherry..there's so many way you can go with this and so many questions that need answers. Please listen to the other comments that were let by other readers. You need to do a SEQUEL....thank you once again for a great read . Another 5 star story..

Superb writing and a great build-up that leant itself well to the romance of the story. Truly breathtaking! Thank you for sharing your talent.

Best story I've ever read
