Chapter 2: Sweet First Kiss
We had decided to meet up at the park so we could talk and hang out. I was so nervous. My mom dropped me off and I could see him sitting there, waiting on a bench. He grinned as soon he saw me and immediately gathered me in a hug. I also smiled, hugging him back. It was so weird, being in love for the first time and I mean we were so young. Only fifteen. It kind of worried me. I thought this as I let go of him to turn and wave to my mother as she drove off, smiling knowingly. I turned back to him and he was still grinning stupidly. I didn't know what he was so excited about but couldn't help but giggle as his excitement caught on. I could feel butterflies fluttering around in my stomach. He just grinned again and grabbed my hand as we started to walk along the park's trails. I followed him, blushing and giggling like a little girl. I was so happy.
We walked and walked, talking endlessly. Bumping shoulders, exchanging shy but meaningful glances, and swinging our entwined hands. I couldn't keep the grin off my face. I was beaming. He was too. I just loved being in his company. I could be myself and I felt free, like I had no worries, no concerns, no responsibilities. I was completely comfortable with him and I loved it. Just being with him. The two of us. It was exhilarating. I never wanted to be apart again and looking at him, I hoped he felt the same. I felt like I already knew him so well and he knew me too. We kept asking each other question after question, even the most random of things. Just trying to get to know each other.
"So, what is your favorite color?" Sasuke asked curiously. "I don't know… Probably red!" I answered, giggling uncontrollably. They had been talking ever since they had found a nice, shady tree and sat down to relax and talk some more. Two hours had already passed and the sun was starting to go down. "I better get going soon, it's getting late." I said sadly, frowning as I begin to attempt to get up. "Wait!" Sasuke protested as he grabbed my hand and pulled me back down next to him. "Can I at least kiss you goodbye?" He asked hopefully, eyes sparkling and a slight blush making its way across his adorable cheeks. I looked at him, trying to read his gorgeous face. "Yes." I finally managed breathless, trying to keep calm. 'I can't believe he's going to kiss me!' I screamed inside my head as he leaned in to kiss me. I closed my eyes as our lips met and felt complete joy as I felt the warmth of his lips against mine. His skin touching mine made me quiver in complete ecstasy. I opened my eyes and smiled as he drew away and smiled back at me. I could still barely feel the tingly warmth of his lips on mine in that slow, soft yet passionate kiss. I didn't want to admit it but at that very moment, I knew I was in love. Me in love. Who would have thought! I guess anything really is possible!
