I Liked It

Oh my God.

Slowly, I raise my finger up to my lip. My finger gently brushes against my lower lip.

Did that just happen?

Was it real?

I fall back into the memory of the kiss. It wasn't some kind of major tongue wrestling kiss. It was a pure, innocent kiss. Just a pure innocent kiss.

"Hey, Jt!"

I turned to see him running towards me. He runs a little funny, I know, but he's quite fast when he wants to be.

"'Sup?"

He stops right in front of me, and smiles. He grabs my arm and pulls me away, under the stairs. ...The same spot where I told Liberty that I was "gay." I smile back at him, expecting to hear some kind of amazing, secret news.

"Ok... Seriously, man. What's gong on?"

Then it happened.

He quickly leaned into me, and pressed his lips against mine. Not too soft, but not too hard. Perfect.

I closed my eyes, as the kiss continued.

Suddenly I realize who it is I'm kissing. Not that I hadn't known it was him before, I just forgot that he's a guy... My eyes open.

And the kiss ends, with him pulling away in a grin.

"I've wanted to do that for a long time..."

I open my mouth trying to say something.

Hello in there! Say something to him! Anything!

...Nothing comes out.

His grin slowly transforms into a frown. I think he just realized what he did.

"Oh my God. Jt, I'm so sorry!"

Then he runs away. He has such a cute, little weird run.

The memory soon fades into what's happening now. My finger's still on my lip.

Wait. He seemed upset when he ran away. And I'm just standing here. What kind of friend am I?

I run in the direction he ran. I know exactly where he's heading... So I slow down. I want him to have time to get there. I've gotta make this perfect for him. For My Toby.

Time passes, and I walk towards the empty park. Just as I thought, he's there on the tire swing, staring at the ground. Slowly, I walk over to him, trying not to make a sound. I step behind him and place my hands over his eyes.

"Guess who!"

Toby sighs, and pulls my hands off, then turns to look at me. This is exactly what I hoped he'd do.

I put my hand behind his head, and pull him towards me. Again we kiss.

I pull back, and admire the shocked expression on Toby's face. It's so odd... I smile, and put my arm around his shoulders, and rest my head against his.

"Don't be sorry Tobes."

I speak in a whisper, directly in his ear.

"I liked it."


A/N: Wooo! I dunno what possesed me to write this! It's probably from seeing an old review for "What If I Was Telling Liberty the Truth"... I found unread reviews in my email, and there was a review for that story... Maybe that's what made me think of this? I dunno... Anyways, now I'm working on a new Eman focused CHAPTER story! Well, reviews? Flames? Comments?
