First Kiss

I can't remember how long Nathan and I had been dating by the time we first kissed. I don't think it was very long.... or we could have not even been dating at all for that matter. This was my first kiss, ever. Kisses to me were very special. I don't go handing out kisses like some people do, they are very special and personal to me. Not saying that people who like to kiss a lot don't feel the same way. So yes.... my sophomore year was my first kiss.

We were over at Nathan's house watching a movie. I cannot for the life of me remember what movie. He might remember though, I don't know. He and I were cuddling and flirting and not paying one bit of attention to the movie. Poor Scott Varco was there with us. He was Nathan's best childhood friend and Scott was nice enough to just ignore us. We finally, for whatever reason, decided to hide under a blanket. Just thinking about it makes me smile- that's so silly! Maybe Nathan knew the only way to get me to kiss him was to do it in 'secret', under a blanket.

I remember us goofing around for a bit under the blanket, that only means that he would try to tickle me or vice versa. Finally our faces ended up very close to each other. We just stared at one another for a second. I was just watching his lips. I was terrified that I was going to do it all wrong.

Neither one of us moved in first. We both connected and it was kind of a mess. haha. His mouth was moving one way and I felt like my lips were trying to play catch up with his lips. It lasted about 15 seconds before we stopped. I'm guessing that at this moment Scott knew EXACTLY what was going on. We weren't making anymore juvenile noises any longer. But we sure thought we were being sneaky.

After the first kiss I couldn't stop smiling and neither could he. So we kissed again. And this time we were much more in sync. I loved kissing him in high school. I just couldn't get enough of it.

I still can't believe that was what.... 7 years ago? Time really does fly.
