How Did You Fall In Love?

I went running with a friend and twisted my ankle. While I was trying to stand, leaning on her, she kissed my cheek. I asked her what that meant. She was embarrassed and tried to play it down. But it was an intentional kiss.

After I was back to where I could run again, six long weeks. I took her hand and pulled her around, 'why did you kiss me?'. She wanted to pull away but I didn't let her. I kissed her lips, just as intentional of her kissing my cheek. 'Now we are even'. We ran in silence, when we got back I told her next time I wanted her to kiss back and to make it count.

See, I never thought about her like that, not until she kissed me. I had six long weeks to think about her. When you kiss trembling lips it does something to you. That's why I pushed, shoved actually. It's friends 'with benefits' now. I want more, a lot more. You don't just meet someone like her on the street corner. Shit, or fall in love over a kiss on the cheek.
