Virgin Quote by Alessandra Hazard
““Ryan said slowly, “Jamie, how much experience do you actually have?” If anything, Jamie looked even more uncomfortable. “I’ve been in the closet all my life.” “How much?” Ryan pressed. “Until Paul, a few snogs and a handjob.” It was Ryan’s turn to stare. “Did you go all the way with him?” he asked at last, hoping Jamie would say no. He didn’t trust that dickhead to treat Jamie right—Jamie who had practically been a virgin, Jesus. Who the hell was a virgin at twenty-two? “Yeah,””
