Dear Diary,
I had a bit of a strange day today.
So, it all started when everyone at school began gushing over the fact that some boy and girl in our year were making out behind the bushes at recess today. All the girls, including my friends, started going on and on about the boys they wanted to kiss in our year and how badly they wanted a first kiss and whatnot.
Anyway, later Vi and I went to my house and hung out as usual. We were playing Mario Kart on my Nintendo when I decided to be honest about the whole thing today. I found it super weird. Like I don’t get the appeal of kissing any of the short sweaty boys in our year. Or any boy really. I just didn’t get what the fuss was about.
I was so relieved when Vi agreed with me. I don’t know, it definitely made me feel less weird. Then we began talking and laughing about it, like, imagine if anyone wanted to kiss Claggor, or even worse Mylo! We were laughing so hard my stomach hurt. But then, something odd happened.
Vi suggested that we should get our first kisses over and done with though, so it wouldn’t be weird when we’d have our real first kiss because we’d know what we were doing. Then, when I asked who we’d kiss, she just replied “Us, duh!” as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. At first, I was a bit shocked she’d said that, but involuntarily I blurted “sure.”
So, Vi sat in front of me on the couch and she kissed me. Even though neither of us knew how to kiss, it happened so naturally. It started slow, just softly brushing our lips against each other, but then we did more, like properly kissing. I could taste the mountain dew she had just been drinking, and her lips were super soft, and she put her hand on my face.
But yeah, eventually it ended, after god knows how long, and I was just sitting face to face with Vi, who had gone as red as a tomato. She just nodded and said “At least we know neither of us are hopeless!” then turned so we could start another round.
I don’t know what it means, but I really liked it. Maybe kissing is just really fun and that’s why people do it all the time. Although, I couldn’t really imagine kissing a boy. Or maybe anyone. Except now Vi, because I kissed her today. Is it crazy that I want to do it again?
Anyway, maybe if I sleep on it I’ll be less confused tomorrow.
