| Dancing at the Renaissance Festival |
| The drums beat rhythmically as the Minnesota Renaissance Festival neared its ritual, end of the day dance. Hundreds of bodies moved to the beat, stirring up a cloud of dust that glistened in the rays of the setting sun. And then I saw her. Her flaming red hair was electric. Her name was Hannah. We danced, pressing ourselves against one another for half an hour until we gave each other a passionate good-bye kiss. I don't know if she knew it, but it was my first kiss. I haven't seen her since. |
HOMECOMING GAME
| I was 18 at the time of my first kiss. I had liked this boy and he has liked me for a very long time. We aweren't going out though. He is 3 years older than me so we kind of kept it on the hush. I know it's terrible. Well, he told me that he would be the one to give me my first kiss. I didn't know when he was going to do it, though. Homecoming was coming up and he asked me if I was going to the Homecoming football game. I told him I was. I figured that is when he was planning on doing it. I was so nervous that day that the kiss was all I could think about. When I got to the game, I couldn't find him, but he found me. He motioned for me to follow him. I followed him to the courtyard at our school. It was dark except for the lights at the football field. We sat on a bench and had an awkward silence for a long time. Then, we looked at each other and stared into each other's eyes for a while. Then, we leaned in to kiss. When our lips touched, a shock went through my whole body and I couldn't move. I haven't kissed anyone else, but I know that he's the only one I ever want to kiss. It was the best feeling I had ever had and I can truly say that I am in love with this boy! It was a night I will NEVER forget. |
The Day my life was turned around
One day, I was working with a lady who I had gone to college with years ago. She was working part-time, making a little extra money to make ends meet. We worked the weekend shift together and it was lonely, very slow, and not many worked that shift with us.
Days went by and we talked with each other every chance we got. Then, one day after we chatted about the old times in college, I was going on break and she was clocking out for the day. Right there after she clocked out, she came up, put her arms around me and gave me my "FIRST KISS" right there in the hallway. I had a small crush on Teresa before that incident, but was too shy to ask her out. But when she gave me that "FIRST KISS," a very special feeling rushed through my body, covering every part possible with love and joy. A feeling no other person could have given to me.
Nineteen months went by and we kept in contact with each other by phone, email and face to face.
Then, I finally broke the string and asked her to marry me. God was with me every moment of the way. She accepted to let me take her as my wife. She's the most wonderful thing that’s ever happened to me. She turned my life around with a heart full of love. Teresa’s a very special loving person and caring mother. Without her in my life today, I don’t know what I would do. She means so much to me and I just want to tell her that I love her and that I will always be there for when she needs me.

Finally Home and All Mine
| My first kiss, with my now fiancé, was the most unforgettable day and night of my whole life. He and I had been friends for a while and during his tour in Afghanistan, I was online, fooling around on my lunch break and I saw him online. Much to my surprise, he called me later that day to talk. We continued talking over the rest of his tour. He had asked me if I would come to the base to greet him when he came home and I happily agreed to do so. He walked passed me in a crowd of about 800 people and I grabbed his arm. He turned around, hugged me, and kissed me on the cheek. Later that night, we went walking in the Legislative grounds in town. The sun was setting. He picked some flowers and gave them to me! I thanked him by giving him a hug and at this point, I had wanted to kiss him for the longest time. Our cheeks were touching and we moved our lips closer together. After three times of not kissing, I decided to go for it and just kiss him! It was like magic when it happen...like nothing else in the world mattered at that very moment. We have been together ever since! |
My unintented
| It wasn’t a while since the person I’ve liked for months, Jeremy, admitted to liking me at the beach three weeks earlier, after I backed him into a corner of questions that rose from his cryptic answers and comments about how he knew someone liked me. And since then, we never did much other than go to the beach after school, and climb the boulders and rocks and watch the waves crash in the bitter coldness. He always wrapped his arms around me and I cuddled closer to him, taking all the warmth I could get from his slender body. It was so relaxing, having him holding me as we watched the pale waves crash against the rocks below us. And everyday, I had a stronger urge to kiss him, to feel his lips on mine. I had never known what it felt like before and I was afraid, I didn’t know how to go about it or when or if he wanted to kiss me. Because he never seemed to push me into anything I wasn’t comfortable doing. He told me how comfortable he was with me, how if can tell me most things he couldn’t even tell his best friends. That we have so much in common with each other, and we get along so well. And all of this made me want him more. But he never kissed me. A day or two after that, my parents had a serious fight and I was scared and alone. My parents were fighting and it escalated to screaming and hitting. I tried to defend my mom from my father and he hit me and yelled at me. The tears swelled up when I saw the fear in my mother’s eyes as she told me to call the police. I was too scared to so I called my older brother. The next day, I was distant and semi-anti-social. I didn’t tell any of my friends what had happened and for a brief part of the day, I forgot how to be me. It seemed like a looming shadow threatening to consume me. After school, instead of going to the beach, we went to his house since no one was home. Jeremy puts on some of our favorite music and played guitar as we talked while I laid on his bed horizontally. He saw how distant I’ve been and asked me what was wrong. I told him “I’ll tell you but I don’t want you to worry.” He laid beside me and put his arm under my neck and stared intently at me. As I started talking I couldn’t bare to look at him and my voice started quivering. As I told him the sensitive parts he hugged me with a squeeze and said “I’m so sorry. Why do bad things always happen to good people?” When I told him my father hit me, it shocked him that things were so serious and he squeezed me even harder, and said, “I’m sorry you had to go through that.” I hadn’t realized I was crying until Jeremy looked at me with sadness and wiped one gently from the hollow of my eye. He lowered his head and kissed me so tenderly on my cheek that I thought I imagined it. I felt awkward and froze then he dug his face in my hair as he hugged me. I just listened to the songs and realized that “Love Will Tear Us Apart” by Joy Division was playing. He lifted his head and look at me with admiration again and I smiled at him as best I could. Then he lowered his head to my lips and pecked them so lightly and tenderly, and looked back at me with a smile. I was shocked, I didn’t know what had just happened. We looked at each other for a longer moment and he came closer and kissed me again but he lingered on my lips. I looked at him again and smiled dazedly and he lowered his head again to kiss me and this time I opened my mouth for him. He moved his mouth over mine and it felt thrilling yet subduing as I felt his full moist lips on mine. The skin of his lips were soft like satin and they were irresistible. I wasn’t sure what I was doing but I calmed myself and enjoyed the kiss. Then “Unintended” by Muse, our most-favorite band played and I broke the kiss and laughed. It was appropriate for the mood and what I always imagined both of us kissing to. Needless to say, he made my bad day and any other previous one better with the touch of his lips and I appreciate everything he’s done for me and more he doesn’t even know. |
Worth the wait
I grew up in a small town where kids don't really "date." People say I'm beautiful, but since I'm not a size 6, I was invisible to guys, and nobody returned my interest. I gave up that anyone could ever want me, and I gave up on ever being kissed. At 18, I started college and moved into my dorm for Orientation Weekend. The night before classes started, I went to an outdoor worship service with a girlfriend from my cheer squad, where we by chance started talking to this guy. He initially showed interest in my friend (due to her appearance), but he asked us both if we wanted to go grab some ice cream. We did, and walked around the historic square for a while, talking and learning about each other. At midnight, she said she was tired and wanted to go to bed--classes started the next morning. Not wanting to leave this interesting guy, I said I wasn't tired, so we just dropped her off at her dorm. Back in the car, he asked me if I'd ever kissed a guy. I said no. He said, "Would you like to?" He drove to a baseball field away from the city lights. We spread a blanket on the ground and sat, looking at the stars...when suddenly we just stopped talking, and he kissed me. I could never dream of a more romantic first kiss; out in a dewy field under a beautiful late-summer sky! In the past I yearned for just a kiss, but now I am so glad I never kissed anyone before Jonathan. That kiss led to many more kisses, and over a year later we are very much in love and plan to spend the rest of our lives together. He thinks it's so wonderful that he's the only man I ever (and will ever) kiss; I just smile and say it was worth the wait.

First Kiss, the Navy Way
I had been seeing this girl before I went into Boot camp, but we weren't together yet and we never kissed. All throughout boot camp we were sending letters to each other, friendly at first, but then became more sensual. The weekend after graduation, she and my parents came out. We were sitting in the back seat of my parents Explorer when her nose itched. She scratched it and said to me, somewhat quietly, "Means I'm going to kiss a fool." I then leaned over and kissed her for a good few minutes. All she could say afterwards was "Wow."

A Dream Come True...
It was a cold winter night and my girlfriend and I were standing outside watching for shooting stars. We would both spot one and make a wish. After we were done, we went inside. She decided that she wanted to take a shower. While she was in the shower I had something else in mind. I lit candles in her room, made the bed and put a white rose on her pillow. Then, I put Hershey kisses on her bed with a bunch of other stuff I had bought her like stuffed animals and jewelry. When she came into her room, she looked around and started crying. I had our song playing on repeat when she came into the room. We started dancing to it. I felt that intimate feeling just by dancing with her. It was like our feelings were written on our faces. We looked at each other and as we moved close to kiss, we could feel the heat of each others. When we started kissing, it felt like we were in a dream, like time stopped. Our slow kiss lasted for hours. The taste of her lips tasted so sweet and the touch and her skin felt so soft. We had butterflies in our stomachs. I will never forget the words that were spoken when we looked into each others eyes even though we said nothing. From that kiss on, I knew that she was the one. I knew that we were right for each other. Just thinking about our kiss that night makes me smile. I feel love now, but I felt it first, that night.

Breathtaking
| I was 18 years old and never been kissed. I’d always just been shy with guys, I guess, and never got a head start like most girls in my school! I met this guy who actually pursued ME and got my number from a friend. We started talking and he was the sweetest kid ever, everything I had been looking for! We hung out a couple of times, but I was still pretty shy and nothing had really ever happened between us. One night, we went to this park where there’s a kid's playground and everything. For a while, we just swung on the swings and stuff, but then we started walking toward a pond at the corner of the park, sort of isolated. It was REALLY romantic, with it being evening and the sun setting and all...makes me breathless just thinking about it! So as we start to walk around the pond, he slowly slips his fingers between mine, making my heart skip a beat. I’m glad we weren't looking at each other because my face was probably redder than my shirt! We continue to walk around, just talking and enjoying the beautiful evening. When we reached the far side of the pond he slowed down and we stopped. As we stopped, he turned to face me and got pretty close to me, still holding hands. He looked down, smiling at me with his beautiful brown eyes. He said, "So, you've really never been kissed?" At this point, I knew it was coming. "Nope, not yet…" I replied. "Well, would you like me to change that?" he asked. "Yes." I barely got it out because I was so nervous, excited, and anxious all at the same time. He then slipped his hands onto my waist and leaned his face in toward mine to kiss me. As our lips touched, I suddenly felt like everything in the world was mine and in reach. I felt so secure and perfect, just standing there on that beautiful summer night kissing. We kissed for a while and then both pulled away as a frog jumped between us! We both looked into each others eyes and leaned in once more for another kiss. The second was even better than the first and I wished it would never end. Ironically, the best part was when we were pulling away from each other. He ever-so gently kissed my cheek, right next to my lips. It gave me chills down through my toes and it was the best feeling in the world. I felt SO in love with him and as we walked around the rest of the pond, his arm around my waist, we barely said a word, basking in each other’s presence. From there to his car, we walked hand in hand, gently playing with each others' fingers and enjoying each other and the night. It was the most romantic and wonderful night of my life and still, when I think of it, I get a warm sensation in me and a feeling almost like I can’t breathe. It’s breathtaking, really. |
