Not your best work unfortunately. You have far better stuff in your own catalog.
Loved the CMNF party scene. Also loved your conclusion that men may hold on to memories of past lovers as tightly as women (or likely even moreso). I know I'll cherish memories of escapades in my teens and twenties for many more decades... memories that I'm certain my partners will have long forgotten by now.
I certainly found this story to be one of the sweetest of your tales. Youth has an innocence that is so provocative especially in young women. Beth is so happy to be in that situation because she is free to explore herself. James is just along for the ride. I kind of hoped that the relationship would turn out differently but understand that real life is seldom fair to love.
The loosely-structured story starts out, pleasantly enough, as a fairly typical luv2custrip CMNF fantasy. This particular fantasy seems to be a typically rule-bound, slightly more-innocent, perhaps Midwestern version of Sex Week at Yale. When the action moves off-campus, the tone modulates a little, some surprises occur, and the lovely Beth manages to drift out of James's life and NOT reappear for his 33 1/3 birthday. Just like in real life. The elegiac tone in the end is very nice, and well earned.
Be sure to catch the 60's movie "The Harrad Experiment", about incoming freshmen paired two to a room, one male and one female. They're expected to immediately explore each other sexually, and can swap roommates once a month. Clothed for classes, but naked for yoga class and also naked in the swimming pool and when they have intercourse on the lawn. Stars James Whitmore and a young Don Johnson. Features total frontal nudity, both genders. Amazon Prime.
