"I...won't delve into any graphic details," he began, "but I had...many reservations about sex as well. At first. As you know. And Blaine understood and respected that, but-- Honestly, I felt like I needed to be pushed a little after a while. Not--aggressively, no, nothing of the sort--but gently and slowly. I can't say that I'm completely over every reservation I've had, but I'm much more comfortable now."

He shifted a little, getting more comfortable. "Everything is scarier when it doesn't have a face. But if you confront the topic and speak frankly about it, it seems less threatening. And then it just isn't anymore."
