Before I answer, let me warn you, the answer is pretty graphic. Okay, now my legal dept. will let me proceed:
In short, yes, they do. But, Todd has trouble with it. They have sex 5 times in total (if I remember correctly) and she is loving it, because Todd is not afflicted with the premature ejaculation problem that most teenage boys are. She thinks it's because Todd is a superior lover. In reality, it's because Todd is having trouble getting off or even maintaining his erection without increasingly violent fantasies taking the place of the actual sexual activity. Todd convinces himself it's because her family's Jewish, but the impression King leaves us with is that his problem stems from ever-spiraling madness, even to the point where Todd is trying to figure out how many sexual encounters he has to have with her before he can break it off and still appear "normal", which is his highest priority, as he is apparently at least vestigially aware that his "normality" is only a front. I hope that helps.
