This has been bothering me for a few days now. I wish I had spent more time studying grammar in school instead of ignoring it. :)


“You want to what?” My voice was shrill. Believe me, this was one thing I had never expected to hear from my best friend.

“Trini, come on. What’s the harm?”

“I’m not having some kind of break down, am I? I mean, how often does your friend, your FEMALE friend ask you to kiss her?”

Kim glared at me. “I already explained this to you once. I’ve never been kissed before and I know you have. I’m sixteen and Tommy and I are getting closer and…I don’t want to be embarrassed.”

“Uh huh, I get that and I understand where you’re coming from, but why me? Why not one of the guys? Billy used to have a huge crush on you; you could ask him.” I was trying to come up with a way to get her off my back but it didn’t seem to be working.

“Billy had a crush on me? Oh my God, you never told me about that.” I winced, that was supposed to have been a secret. “But I don’t want to kiss the other guys. They talk too much and they’d tell Tommy. It’s too horrible to admit that I haven’t had my first kiss yet.”

“There’s nothing wrong with that, Kim. My cousin, Drea, you know the chubby one, she didn’t have her first kiss until she was 23.”

“Yeah, well, I’m not Drea. No offense, but she’s always been a little strange and it doesn’t surprise me a bit that she hadn’t been kissed.”

“That’s kind of rude, don’t you think? First you ask me to kiss you and now you’re insulting my family.”

“Oh, Trini, I don’t mean it like that. Besides you think it’s funny because you’re smiling.” She grabbed my arm. “Come on, this is the perfect idea. We even have a good atmosphere to do it. It’s a beautiful night and there’s a summer storm coming.”

Even as she said it, the rain began to fall. We were sitting in my bedroom and I got up to close my window and to give myself a little room. Kimberly is my closest friend and I’ve never pictured myself kissing her. It would be like kissing one of the guys except it wouldn’t because she’s a girl. Not that I have a problem with that, you know. It’s just not something a straight girl would do. At least I don’t think so.

“Why don’t you practice with a pillow?”

“God, what is the matter with you? That wouldn’t be the same at all.”

Excuse me, I practiced kissing with a pillow, but I wasn’t going to share that with her now.

“Okay, okay, let’s get this over with.” The best thing to do was to get it over with. Once she got something on her mind she was like a pit bull.

She squealed. “I knew I could count on you, Trini. Thank you, thank you, thank you.”

I walked back to my bed, where she was sitting and she stood up. We both stood there, uncomfortably, until she laughed. “I think I’m more nervous now than if it were real.”

I smiled. “I know what you mean.” I tilted her head and pressed our lips together quickly and drew away.

She frowned. “When I asked you to kiss me, I meant romantically, not the way you’d kiss your brother.”

“I don’t have a brother, Kim.”

“You know what I mean. That’s the way you’d kiss Jason or Billy or Zack. If we’re going to do it, it’s got to be done right.”

She moved closer and rubbed our lips together. It was a closed mouth kiss and it was…sweet. She drew away after a few seconds and smiled. “See, that was nice, wasn’t it? I just hope it’s good when Tommy and I get to it.”

I tried to smile, but didn’t succeed very well. Fortunately Kim didn’t notice which was just as well. It was a nice kiss. A little too nice and I had the feeling that what it meant was going to change the course of my life. Forever.
