RECIPIENT: Sophie, aged 21

Pretty soon, the group upped the ante from just kisses to full-blown makeout sessions. It would start with 5 seconds, before gradually going up to 7, then 10, then 12 as the night progressed.

My first land was on Sophie, who I had kissed at a party almost two years before and once had a crush on. We ran into each other's arms and began to make out.

It was hot. I had never made out with anyone before. Our lips battled for dominance and even our teeth grinded together as folks chanted down "5…..4…..3…..2….1….." We broke apart smiling.

Then, when Sophie spun not even a minute later, it fell on me and we made out again. I wrapped my arms around her and closed my eyes a little. My mouth dug deep into hers.

Sophie pulled away after the 5 seconds. "Don't open your mouth so much," she advised. "Keep it closed."

3 minutes had passed since my kiss with Elizabeth.
