Eveyone has a moment in their life that has become

eched into their memories, and sits in the back of their

head untill a random moment when it decideds to pop up and

remind you that it once existed and is still there. A

moment such as this decided to sneak up on me as I waited

for my friends Rei and Ami to meet me for luch at the Olive

Garden in Florida. I was about thirty minutes early, having

finished a meeting ahead of schedual for once when I saw

a little blond girl with a Mickey Mouse balloon.

You see it all happend when I was thirteen....I was

sitting in the lobby of the Contemporary Hotel at Disney

World. My dad, my stepmom, and her parents were shoping

for souvenirs in the stores nearby. All around, people

were milling about, sending a comfortable hum of voices

through the spacious atrium. The sun bathed the air with a

yellow glow, compleating the lush, tropical greenery. the

monorails glided and stopped, one after another, and a

peacefulness settled on the late hours of the busy day.



I was alone on a bench, watching the people. We'd been

at the Magic Kingdom all day, and I was tired. I noticed a

boy-a really cute boy- who was about my age. And he was

watching ME! Standing against a pole just watching me.

He had soft looking midnight black hair, beautiful

crealuen eyes and a wonderful smile, that he had directed

at me, of all people. He made my heart flutter with

excitment.



He suprised me by walking over and sitting down next

to me. CLOSE. He smelled good, so good that I've always

wondered what that smell was exactly. A nervous wave

washed over me as I struggled awkwardly to make conversation.



"Hi" I said.

"Hey," he said

A long pause. We both shifted uneasily on the bench.

"What kind of cologne are you wearing?" I finally

asked.

"I dunno," he said indifferently. "It's my

father's--musk or something."



He touched the balloon I was holding. A blue Mickey

Mouse balloon, I'll never forget it. Then he leaned over

and kissed me, a warm, gentle kiss that made me dizzy and

fuzzy-headed.



In that moment, I felt independent--like being "all

growm up." Perhaps that kiss sparked the woman inside me.

I tasted freedom and felt the soft flutter of romance in

my heart for the first time.



That was the end of the magical boy. Next thing I

knew my stepmom demanded to know why I kissed a stranger

in the lobby of a hotel after being alone for less than

five minutes. I don't blame her for being embarrassed,

after all I did it right infront of her parents. Truth


was, I really didn't know why or how I came to be kissing

a stranger. I just knew I liked it and that I was in alot

of trouble.



I spent the ride home in the back seat of the car,

my head resting against the window, gazing out quietly,

while holding my Mickey Mouse balloon close to my face.

The smell of that balloon kept me with him the whole way

home. And the feeling of his kiss stayed fresh on my heart.



I saved that balloon for many years. I don't know if

it was special to me because of the boy, or because it

represented a time in my life when I gained a new since

of independece, a magical coming of age.



Well It's been almost ten years and here I am still

thinking about that day and that kiss. I smile to my self

and shake my head, my gold tresses flying around me.



"Oh well," I say to myself, as I look at my watch.

"five more minutes to go."



I leaned back in my chair to relax when a wonderful

yet familiar scent assulted my senses. I turned around

to see a man sitting with his back to me, and once again

I have to ask.



"Excuse me, what's that cologne that your wearing?"

I ask tapping him on the shoulder.



A guy in his mid-twenties with midnight black hair

falling softly into his eyes turns around to me and

flashes a wonderful smile that goes all the way to his

eyes.



"I don't know," he responds "I can't rember the name,

....it's musk or somthing."



I looked deep into his crealuen eyes, no it couldn't

be.....could it?
