Did not expect the marriage ending, freaking awesome story man, not enough stars to express how good this story was
life is short....moments are fleeting....who know what fates have in store for each. TK U MLJ LV NV
and with the themes, plots and assignments could be carried on for a few more chapters. Respectfully...TK U MLJ LV NV
That is wonderful story, I did sort of expect the ending but, when Michelle had the bad headache I thought she may have had a serious problem. Glad I was wrong..
Any chance of a chapter 2??? They could start a family, hmmmm.
Most have already said it. Loved the story. Reminds me of me. Thanks for sharing.
This story could quite easily fit in the Romance category as well as here. I really enjoyed the growth of the relationship between the two characters and how their love developed.
A beautiful tale that gets better with every read. Congratulations.
I have read this great story !!
It always relaxes me and calms me down,as well as giving me a 'Lift' in my Life.
Such an enjoyable story - gentle and loving.
Thank You Tony 155
You captured perfectly the story of two nice kids as they progressed from "know and like" to "love" in a sensitive way that made the story enjoyable to read. Good job!!
I have to say, I immensly enjoyed this story, despite- or perhaps because- it's not the typical type of story I read on this site. Either way, it was a GREAT read with great characters and awesome story progression- not to mention an engaging story. I'll definitely be looking to check out some of your other works.
I really enjoyed this love story, where the sex was a result of their love, not their lust. I especially liked her sisters, and how Gary and Michelle both instinctively looked at Katie when the priest asked if there was anyone who objected!
A beautiful story with a good ending! I was worried there for a while you were going to kill her off with the headaches and have a sad ending.
All in all it was great!
I think I enjoyed reading this very nice romantic story even more after several months, and then reading it again.
And one of the best "feel good" romances ever.
thank you
...this story,I still get the feeling of quiet Joy - without fail.
For me it is pure magic that re-invigorates me making me very happy & content.
Thank you Tony - wherever you are.
thank you for one of the most touching love stories I've read.
It's a love story. Sex does NOT equal love, Romance does NOT equal love. Love is everything in a relationship and takes time. This story has it all. Thank you so much author!

Maybe Literotica should add another category "Love Story" I get so tired of authors that think love is hot sex or romance is just hot sex.
But you told your story on your own terms.
And it's satisfying!
Thanks!
This was the most wonderfully loving, caring, sweet, heart warming story I've read. So believable, so true to life as I've experienced it, so deeply moving, so lovingly sexual that I wish I could give it more than 5 stars. Thank you so much. đ
What a nice change, it's not wam, bam thank you ma'am porn, but a real believable love story.
i would like a part 2 where they have kids and more sex
A wonderful, loving story that gave off the feeling this is the way all stories should flow from the beginning to marriage. I hope that you do continue the story into the next phase of their life together. Thank you.
I don't usually read "First Time", but I do if Tony155 writes them because he knows about True Love and makes them love stories. It's a "Romance" This one is an all time favorite so I have read it again and then again. Thanks Tony.

Gary did not need a second for his response. "It sounds fantastic, but I'll have to call my mom and see if they don't mind me traveling with three women."
<At first I thought it was a joke, since he was making lots of teasing and I laughed. However I quickly realized that he was being serious and then I burst out laughing. Seriously? Asking for permission from his mommy to drive wth three girls? I
Iike the development of the story and the characters, so far. I enjoy your writing, but I couldn't just ignore this and move on. Sorry, I had to comment>
What is this constant banter about stealing her sister's friend, share a boyfriend etc between sisters? This is not funny at all. Jokes of this kind are distasteful to say the least.
"And so, weeks passed without a hint of skin being shown."
These are teenagers right? :-)
It was an enjoyable story, but the sexual side to their romance moved at a glacial pace!
I'm so glad I found this in someone's Favorites.
A commenter dislikes and wonders why the sister's banter over stealing him. I thought it one of the many wonderful touches of this story. I took it that sister meant it (who knows if such a whim could withstand an actual relationship?), but of course could not pursue it, so turned it to harmless, playful, flirty fun. Which plays into the male fantasy to be desired by multiple desirable women. Ooh, yes. Fitting for Literotica.
What the story lacked was perfect sex on the first date, complete with cunnilingus, fellatio, missionary, cowgirl, doggie, and anal, resulting in 8 orgasms for her and 5 for him which all lasts 4 hours. In other words, Tony knows how to write a First Time story with proper build up to it (their talking about it in the days leading up to it, for example), resulting in an encounter between novices. It had progression combined with love and encounter tempered with human limitation and realism.
Too much unneeded minutiae about some of the days, but easy to scan through.
A masterpiece.

I thought it to be a skilled and delightful written romantic love story. I have known people at the â lowâ end of the social totem pole. I always hoped they would eventually find peace and happiness in their lives. Well done.
while I was growing up I was a lot like Gary. shy around girls , didn't speak a whole lot . never comfortable around them . not every boy is trying to dip his wick all the time.
My second reading of this adorable story.
This time, I'm appreciating how POLITE it is!
Refreshing in this environment.
Thank you!
Wonderful
The idea of finding friendship before sex is foreign in much of our world. It was a true pleasure to read and share the experience. Thank you for your time and effort in publishing a fantastic story.

This was a wonderful read and a perfect first-time story. I loved how unremarkable, how unintimidating these characters were. They were any boy and any girl growing together becoming any man and any woman. The flow was almost perfect from the moment they reconnected to their wedding and honeymoon. The only bump and I'm not saying it's a bad bump, was when Michelle had her headache and a bit of her medical history was exposed. I had a poignant picture in my mind of Gary at her funeral instead of their wedding.  I loved this story. Thank you for submitting. 5 stars!
A lovely loving story of two people who are meant for each other. I love the way your story brings them together, and then develops their growing love cautiously and firmly. All the way through, I was expecting to see a dusting of sexy hair spread across Gary's chest and abs -- something to show he had matured from the scrawny, short eighth grader to the mane had become in college. They are both grow up and mature, and worthy to love each other!
What a wonderful love story. Brought back thoughts of many years ago; two rather socially inept young people discovering comradeship, friendship and ultimately love.
Just one other comment. It's 'altar' not 'alter.'
What a great love story. Tony155's stories are the best, always well written. I just wonder why he hasn't published any story on Lit since July of 09. It seems like the real talented authors like Tony155 just disappear off of Lit, what a shame. Well done 5/5
The only thing that I could find fault with was the hated Buckeyes beating Bowling Green State University. Easily, no less. GO FALCONS!
Seriously, I had no problem envisioning this story taking place in real life, before my eyes. The author put me right there, next to Michelle and Gary, again and again. Easy 5 stars.
I love this story for the same reasons Rancher46, mrdata9770 and several anonymous have voiced here: How these two discover their deep mutual sympathy and go from there, how they not only confess their love, but act accordingly, how respect and tenderness are determining their interaction, including their sex live. This is what sets Tony155's romances apart from the bulk.
A beautiful romance, what true love should be. I am blessed to have found such love at the ripe old age of 82 with a wonderful woman of 59.
"It sounds fantastic, but I'll have to call my mom and see if they don't mind me traveling with three women."
"You don't have to say you're driving with three women," Michelle said. "Just tell her you're driving with some friends."..... Uh what? He had to call his mommy to see if he could ride in a car with girls? He's in college for Christ's sake. This is soo weird. Great story tough.
The story took me back to my own college days. I started college at 17 so I did ask my parents about rides home. It is too bad we haven't heard from Tony155 since 2009 his stories are enjoyable.
5 stars
Incredible story of first and lasting kind of love. Took me back many years to meeting and marrying my own âprinceâ after we graduated from college as well. Loved this story from beginning to end.
I was also a virgin until I was with my wife, and nearing my thirties. (I was a late bloomer as I have autism, dyslexia, and ADHD.) Though I am decades older now, and we are still never, much in love, this story took me back to those first exciting years of young love. It reminded me if my gratitude for a wonderful woman who loves me, when I had long assumed I could never be loved. Thank you for bringing back special memories.
I lost this story and have been trying to find it for years. So glad to have read it again.
