Looking over the city
The lights winked in the distance.
We sat on the hood of his car.
I don't even remember what model,
But I remember . . .
I shivered;
He put his jacket over my shoulders,
Leaving his arm around me,
Fingers whispering across my neck
And sifting through my hair.
I turned to see
Eyes glassy with desire;
Warmed by what I saw there,
I felt my breath catch.
My heart skipped.
He leaned closer.
My thoughts left me.
His lips were so close,
But not touching.
I could smell the sweetness,
Juicy Fruit gum.
He smiled, boyishly, diabolically.
He whispered my name.
I felt everything in me tauten
With an unknown sensation,
And then, those inviting lips
Met mine and I felt
Unexplored
Passion stir.

The only difference is the guy remembers the model of the car and doesn't remember the girl's name... ; ^)
Innocent and sultry. I do remember mine. It was innocent too. Don't misjudge me, though. It was kid stuff. He went on to win a Gold Medal at the Olympics and I went on to be a Gatherer (lol). Oh, well.
I had read every Boy Next Door book about teenage romance in the library. And had practice on the back of my hand for my frist kiss. And when it happen it was very sloppy and I was so afraid that I ran into the house. I was so sheltered that I thought that I could get pregnant from a open mouth kiss.
we kissed for an hour in the neck deep water and dated for several years.
GOD I miss her still.
( I just wrote an article about my first " all the way " which was with her also. - BUT Its quite explicit and we were far too young )
And Rick is showing on e of my pet peeves
NOT all men are the same - I remember every girl I ever been with and only half of the cars I have been with.
Ha Ha Ha
I just remembered that my first actual french kiss occurred prior to that one.
It wasin a camaro with no seats and was with Norma.
It was brief and lead no where, but was actually first.
Maybe Rick is partly right ? ?
