Chapter One: Relationships
First Kiss
I wanted to forget this momment for as long as I can remember, yet it
still came to haunt my memories. It all began in the schoolyear 0f '99
I was a junior and still had no experience with girls. It was quite
frustrating really, when all your friends have had at least three
girlfriends already.
It was the first day of school and I was running up the marble steps
when suddenly someone tripped me. As I was ready to give that person a
piece of my mind, I stopped in schock and horror at what I saw.
Big Bound Bertha.
"Oh Jonny! I'm soo sorry here let me help you up!" she said in her
deep voice.
I panicked as I quickly got up and said it was okay and sped off to
first period. I heeved a sigh of relief as I quickly ducked into my
classroom and sat down on a chair.
Mrs. Torkelson entered the classroom and quickly hushed the class up.
I was beginning to relax when suddenly, she came in.
"Well Bertha, please find a seat so class can begin!" Mrs. Torkelson
told her as she eyed for an empty seat.
*Don't let her seat next me,* I prayed silently with all my heart.
Sadly, Big BOund Bertha grinned as she spotted the empty seat next to
me and quickly beelined to my direction.
"Hi Jonny, I guess we'll be seat mates *snort* *snort*," she laughed
as she whapped me in the back hard that made me thrust forward.
I had a dark looming feeling in the pit of my stomach as Big BOund
Bertha continued to snort like a warthog.
During lunch time, I sat on my usual table with Jessie, my closest
friend and I was ready to pour my heart out on my turmoil with big
Bound Bertha.
"Haha!!!! I can't believe you didn't know!!!!!" Jessie cried out
laughing. "Big Bertha has had a cruch on you since eight grade!!!!!!!"
I pounded my head onto the table. "ARGH!!!!!! Why me????" I called out
frustratedly. "What did I do to deserve this???"
"Oh your just too cute," Jessie teased him as he glared back at her.
"Well what are you gonna do about it???"
"What can I do??" I snapped back.
"Well you better think of something fast because here she comes!"
Jessie said
urgently.
"Wha?" I said as my eyeballs widened and I turned my head to see Big
BOund BErtha heading for our table. *Okay, I gotta think!!!!!!!!* I
though desperately to myself. There had to be something I could do t
make Big Bertha stop liking me!!!
"Hi Jonny, Bannon," Bertha boomed as she stood beside Jonny. "Hey
Jonny I know you probably don't like girls askin' ya out, but would
you go with me to the
Aquaintance party tomorrow night?"
My mind was racing as I thought of a reason to turn her down. Finally
out of desperation I blurted out ,"Ahh, I'm sorry Bertha, I'm going
with Jessie already!"
Jessie didn't know whether to hit him or die laughing. "Err, sorry
Quest someone already asked me out! I'm sure he'd love to go with ya
Bertha! Isn't that right Jonny??"
"But..but..."I muttered as tears began glistening in my eyes.
"Cool! See you in thegym tommorow night Jonny!" Big BOundBertha called
out as she skipped back to the lunch line.
"I'm doomed," I murmered as I pounded my fists onto the table.
"Hehe, I've never seen a grown man cry!" Jessie snickered as she
patted Jonny in the back. "Good luck Jonny, and remember, the force
will be with you, always!"
I frowned at her gigling, making fun of my hopeless situation. "Thanks
Jess, this is all your fault, if you had gone along with my reason I
wouldn't have had to go with her."
"Well, lets just say this is payback time for when you made fun of me
and Acne-clad Horace 'kay? Besides, this is just one party! What harm
can it do???"
Jessie said in exasperation as she got her books and headed off to
class.
The next day I wondered if Big Bound Bertha would remember our date. I
prayed so hard that she would loose interest in me, but no such luck.
During homeroom she was talking about her new dress and how we would
have so much fun spitting into the punch bowl. I had goosebumps just
picturing it!
The day had gone by so quickly and pretty soon, it was time for the
dance. I cringed as I drove to the school with Jess who was grinning
at my situation all the way to the gym. When we finally arrived, Big
Bound Bertha quickly spotted me and then pulled me into the gym
quickly.
"Haaalp meeee Jeeesssss!!!!!!!!!" I screamed but she merely laughed
and said have a good time. What kind of friend was she anyways???
"I'm soo glad you made it Jonny! Let's dance!" she dragged me to the
dance floor which was playing a slow song.
I kept her at arm's distance as she began swaying to the song. I
prayed that the song would finish and when it finally did, the power
suddenly went off and the entire gym went pitch black. I suddenly felt
a cold wet thing touch my lips. HOw grossed out I was, you'll never
know. I pushed her away and ran top speed to the
bathroom as the lights went back on.
I washed my face and gargled over and over again. My first kiss was
not how I imagined it at all. It still haunts me to this very day.
Sometimes I dream about that cold wetness touching my lips, over and
over again.
THE END
soo how was that??? I may put out the next batch of AGALAIHRA'n Soup
for the Questor's Soul soon, hmmm, maybe on Learning??? Hehee, watch
out soon!
