Kid Stuff

A Junior High basketball game. My friend knew he liked me, she made room for him to sit beside me. She helped him put his arm around my shoulder. She whispered into our ears the jingle about sitting in a tree. During half time she pushed us out the side door of the gym and closed it.

Yes he liked me. We were outside in the cold, alone. I told him to kiss me and get it over so we could go back inside. We didn't know how to kiss so it was pretty lame. After the game, we won, we went to Dairy Queen. I got stuffed into the booth with him beside me. He 'laid' his hand on my thigh. I kept my hands on the table, he kept his hand on my thigh.

After Dairy Queen we went to my friend's house, her parents were out. He led me into a bedroom. We kissed, I sat beside him. He asked me if I was scared, I was. We talked, found a needle on the dresser. He said I had to pull my pants down, prick my finger and let a drop fall on my panties. He turned around and looked out the window. Pricking my finger was the hardest thing I had ever done.

There was no doubt, my friend saw the evidence, we were officially going steady. We were Seniors before the real event happened.
