     Kiss. I don't even know how this happened. Kiss. Her lips soft, supple lips brushed my check and every nerve in my body seemed to charge from the very particles between me and her. Kiss. Pause.

     "Fired up?" she said as she sat up. Hellz fucking yea I wanted to say, but only a faint "yes" fell from my lips as if the words weren't able to escape from my mind to my lips.

     "Had a good time tonight?" she said as she crossed her legs and looked up me with urgency.

     "Yes. Splendid night." Who the fuck says splendid? I am a dumbass. Example A why you can't keep a girl for more than a second, kid.

     "Me too." Her smile made my mind melt for a second and I shifted a little in the leather couch we found ourselves in.

     "So?" I said without thinking. Thanks for making it awkward again, buddy.

     "Yes?" Yes? I got nothing. Why did I say so? What the fuck is wrong with me? Think. You like her. You really like her. You've liked her for months now, ever since you saw her in the school bookstore. You like everything about her. She is perfect. Why am I fucking up right now? She asked you to kiss her. She took her to the other room. She kissed you first after a few awkward seconds. She made you feel amazing. It wasn't you for once. Do something. Anything.

     "I...I..." Nothing. "I...I...like..." You are fucking up. Say something.

     "I like you, Winslow." She fucking said it?! I didn't have to say... "And I know you like me. I never thanked you for picking out the book for me in the beginning of the semester. It became one of my favorite books. Every time I think of that book, I think of that kind guy who helped me find it. You can say something now. You look like you just saw a ghost or something. Do I have two heads or something?"

     Wow. I am agog. Now. Don't. Fuck. Up.

     "I'm...speechless. I just didn't think a girl so sweet and beautiful and..."

     Kiss. Wow. Now that's a kiss. Everything about this felt right. For once.

     "...I got to go soon," I said as stopped for second. I am dumb.

     "Shut up, Winslow. You've got time for one more kiss."


I know the format is weird and shit, but I needed to write that down. It was in my mind.

Listen to: Anything by Modest Mouse because it was playing in the background through the whole time I was typing. lol.
