Disclaimer: I don't own JN.
Author's Note: I am finally going to start my series of JN one shots. I will try to not make them all J/C centered but a majority will be. It will range anywhere from childhood to adulthood. Any suggestion for a story is appreciated.
"Girl, I can't believe you missed the party last night." 15 year old Libby Folfax exclaimed. Her best friend Cindy Vortex, also 15, walked beside her.
"I got sick, what could I do?" Cindy asked, "I hear it was good."
"Yeah, awesome DJing, by your's truly and not a bad turn out. Got a little frisky when spin the bottle was played, " Libby paused "You could've gotten your first kiss!"
"Shh! Not so loud." Cindy covered Libby's mouth. Last thing Cindy wanted was the whole town to hear that she has yet to have her first kiss.
"Come on girl, its not that big of a deal. Some people don't get it until they in college."
"Pfft, like I want to be like those pathetic losers." Cindy scoffed.
"Anyway, why haven't you kissed a guy yet? Plenty of them at school want you. Just go on a date and get a smooch."
"I don't know..."
Libby stopped "You don't expect to be swept off your feet or something, do you?"
"No, but I would prefer someone that I like. I don't expect to get the perfect kiss or whatever."
"So just find a guy and lay it on him." Libby chuckled as Cindy turned slightly red.
"I'm not going up to some guy and kiss him. I do have dignity and that is just sad on so many levels." Cindy sat down on her front steps, Libby beside her. She couldn't believe Libby would suggest something like that.
"You know, Neutron was a big hit at spin the bottle," Libby started.
"So?"
"Well, maybe you can ask..." Cindy stood up.
"Oh no, there is nothing on Earth that will get me to ask him. That is material to mock me for years!" Cindy paced back and forth.
"I could find something to blackmail him," Libby suggested.
Cindy sighed, "No, don't bother. But why would you even suggest Neutron? I hate him."
"Come on, we know thats not true. You two have gotten closer. You seem to fight less then you use to. Plus, I hear that he is pretty good kisser."
"Sad day when Neutron is good at something like that. I figured it be college when girls would even look at him."
Libby giggled, "You are so mean. But my suggestion still stands, ask him. Just threaten him if he tries to spill."
"Please, he is probably one of the few who doesn't fear me. My luck." Cindy sat back down and quickly changed the subject. As Libby told some story from the party, Cindy's mind drifted.
'Maybe it wouldn't be so bad asking- no, I can't afford the mocking. But those girls didn't mind kissing him. And they said he was good. I'd never go to some random guy and ask to kiss me.' Cindy thought. She spent minutes arguing with herself before she made up her mind.
'I hope I know what I am doing.'
** Five Days Later**
Cindy had spent the last few days trying to get the nerve to ask Neutron. It seem like everytime she would try, something went wrong. He was either with someone else or she would insult him before running to class. She decided to invite him over, via text, and just get it over with tonight. Her parents would be at the monthly PTA meeting so interruptions.
She had text him and he replied he be there soon. Cindy brushed her teeth and had spare mints, just in case. Never in her life, so far, has she been so nervous. Not even in all those adventures Neutron had roped her into.
She jumped slightly when a knock sounded on her window. Cindy turned and saw Neutron there, waving sarcastically. She rolled her eyes and opened the window.
"I was in the middle of something, what do you need?" he asked. She took a moment to look at him. He was now slightly taller than her but otherwise looked the same. He kept his swirl hairstyle, even after the insults people threw at it. His eyes bore into her and she felt herself get lost in their blue depth.
"Cindy?" he waved a hand over her face. She snapped out of it and turned red. She couldn't do it.
"Never mind, I changed my mind. See you in school." She turned but not before he grabbed her hand.
"Okay, I need to know what's going on. You kept coming over to me for something and now you can't ask. What's up with you?" he asked.
"Nothing, I just changed my mind."
Jimmy stared at her, "Are you scared to ask me? Wow, I never thought I would see that day." He smirked as her eyes narrowed.
"Shut up. You know, I thought you would be perfect to ask but you can't be serious so just forget it." She sat on her bed.
"Why waste my time if you are going to chicken out?"
"I am not chickening out!"
"Than just tell me."
Cindy bolted off her bed and got right to his face. Jimmy took a small step back from the sudden closeness.
"Kiss me."
"What?" he asked, confused.
"I said kiss me, I hear that you're good."
"Why do you want me to do that?" He looked as a light blush covered her face. He was hit with realization. "You've never been kissed, have you?
She stumbled to say something and that is all it took for him.
"Don't bother, your stumbling is good of an answer. So, why me?" he asked.
"I heard that you were a hit at the party the other night. Plus I know you. If you even try to blab that I am bad or something that would just be admitting that you kissed me. I figured I get it over with and not have it known."
"You don't want it to be special or something."
"Please, I gave up that prince charming crap years ago. I can spent my life trying to find him. Anyway, better now than college. I can do worse than you, but I will spare myself." Cindy sighed "So are you in or not?"
Jimmy looked at her, searching to see if this was all a trick. But it couldn't be for Cindy would never do something like this just to mess with him.
"Okay, fine. But since you've never done it, we'll start at the beginning. Ready?"
Cindy nodded. Jimmy took a deep breath and leaned in, giving a quick soft peck. He leaned back and saw her cheeks are flushed.
"Okay?" Cindy nodded again. "I figured I start there to not freak you out. Now I am going to do it again but longer and move my lips. Just try to follow me." He stepped closer and raised his hands to her waist.
"Can I put my hands on your waist?"
"Sure." She followed him and grasped his biceps. She saw him leaned in and quickly wetted her lips. She stood still as their lips connected. Cindy could feel his lips moving, slightly capturing her top lip between his. She wasn't able to fully enjoy it when he pulled away.
"Are you okay?" he asked. She nodded "You could kiss me longer. I won't bite or anything." She giggled at his blush.
"I just don't want to scare you or something. We can try again. Oh and when you lean in, tilt your head alittle more."
She leaned in, head slightly tilted. He smiled and went in. Like before, their lips touch and move against each other. It last over a minute before they pulled away. Both their faces flushed.
"Is that all or do you want want to continue?" she asked.
"Whatever you want."
"Let's continue, practice makes perfect." she joked. He chuckled.
"Alright, now kissing is important but so is touching. Unless you are dating or comfortable, its better to keep it innocent. Hands on waist or around. Maybe on the shoulders. Wrapped in each others arms is good, especially for the more "advanced" kisses." he explained.
"Advanced kisses?"
"Yeah, you know...French kissing. With tongue." He laughed at her expression. "Its not that bad, if you do it right."
"Alright...now what?"
"Well we can continue with what we were doing. Move our lips more and try to move into some Frenching. If you want."
"Okay." He wrapped his arms around her waist and she was startled. Taking a deep breath she looked into his eyes and slowly leaned in, tilting her head. Her arms went around his shoulders. Like before, she felt slight tingles go over her as his lips met hers. A bit more confident, she moved her lips with his. Slowly, it built up rhythm. She mindlessly stroke the hairs on his nape. She felt him draw her closer until they were aligned. One of his hand slowly caressed her back, her nerves disappeared as he did so.
Jimmy slowed the kiss before ending it completely. Their faces were still close and he smiled at the content look on her's.
"Just one more thing it looks like," Jimmy said.
"Yeah," Cindy replied, a bit uneasy.
"Trust me, its not that big of a deal. We don't have to do it. But I figured you wanted to get it over with. I'll just poked your lips with my tongue and you just follow it with yours. Nothing too fancy and make sure to keep a slow rhythm cause it could get messy if you push too much."
"Okay, lets get it over with." Wrapped in each others arms, they looked at each other. Cindy leaned in and kissed him. She moved her lips over his, knowing how soft they felt. It continued like this until Jimmy opened his mouth slightly and prodded her lips with his tongue. After some hesitation, she opened her mouth. His tongue slipped in and touched her's. At that moment, a chill went through her body. 'This is not bad,' she thought. Being bold, she followed his tongue. They slipped and slide against each other as the kiss got heated. She felt him give a low moan and his right hand came up and cupped her cheek. Her hands clutched his back and she couldn't help but smile inwardly. He slowed the kiss to get his bearings back. If this continued, he might end up in an embarrassing position.
He couldn't help but admit to himself that he has always been attracted to her and this kissing section was only make it worse. He nipped at her lips and leaned back, taking in her flushed face, her bruised lips and the look of content. He nudged her and she opened her eyes.
"Wow," she said. He chuckled and went to let her go. She wouldn't let go but to only pull him closer. 'I think I created a kissing monster' he mused to himself. She captured his lips once more. Knowing what she had to do, she prodded his mouth and once again they were locked in a heated embrace. It got intense with her running her hands through his hair, his up and down her back. The sound of a door closing broke the spell. Breathing heavily, Cindy looked to her door upon hearing her parents voices. She looked at her clock and gasped, they've been kissing for almost an hour.
"Get out of here now." she whispered harshly. He didn't need to be told twice. He turned to leave but not before facing her again, kissing her hard. She stood there, a surprised look on her face as he left through her window. It quickly changed when her door opened.
"Hey sweetie, what are you doing? her dad asked.
With her back to him, she answered, "Nothing. Just thinking."
**Next Day**
"So..."Libby began, "How is your kissing mission going?"
Cindy looked ahead to see Jimmy laughing with Carl and Sheen.
"Mission Completed."
A/N: First of what I hope many one shots. I know that this most likely wouldn't happened but it got stuck in my head. I feel so rusty with my writing at the moment but I will get over it quickly. Again, if anyone has any suggestion, please do mention it.
