Love Story #1554
My first
by Linda
I will never forget my first "real" kiss. I had been kissed before, but not with the same passion as this wonderful kiss. An old friend called me to catch up after being apart for a while. We decided to meet at a nearby park. We sat at a picnic table and talked about whatever the conversation led to. He sat across from me because I felt a bit nervous around him and did not want to get too close. Up to this point, we were just friends. I could kind of tell he wanted to get a little closer. Eventually, he got bold and asked me to move over so he could sit next to me. I did and it was the best move I ever made. I tried to keep a lot of space between us because I was still a bit apprehensive. He kept moving closer until I had nowhere to move. Before I knew it, he had his arm around me. To my surprise, it felt like the most natural place to be. As I became more relaxed, I put my head on his shoulder. We were engaged in casual conversation and he said something that made me laugh. I gave a flirtatious giggle and the next thing I knew, we were kissing. It started as just a few innocent pecks. Then, he pressed his lips harder to mine. So many thoughts were rushing through my head. He was being so passionate, yet caring. I parted my lips... he followed my lead and then I felt his tongue glide against my teeth. A wave of pleasant dizziness washed over me. He had one arm around my waist and his free hand caressed my neck. We both became very aware of what was happening. As quickly as it all began, we stopped. The kiss could not have lasted for more than a minute, but it felt like an eternity. I realized then, that I had wanted to kiss him for a very long time.
There was a strange feeling of nervousness and emotion in the air. I rested my head on his shoulder, took a deep breath and let out a content sigh. We sat in that warm embrace for the longest time saying nothing. I didn't think that he would ever return my kiss. And I never thought he would do it with that much intensity. My mind was spinning, trying to process the situation. He broke the long silence by asking if everything was all right. I didn't really know what to say. I liked, no, I loved the kiss. I just didn't know what to say. I was literally speechless... and he knew that, for me, that was a rare occasion. The only thought in my head was "wow," but I didn't want to kill the mood by saying something so inadequate. To ease his worry, I kissed lightly on the lips and rubbed my nose to his. It was semi-dark, so he could not see the smile that was plastered across my face.
I walked home that night practically floating. I could not remember a time when I had been happier. All though we are no longer together, I still regard that moment as the happiest of my life. It was the first step of my initiation into the life of adult relationships.
