The Picnic

I had never made out with anyone in a car before. It sounded weird when I thought about it, because I’ve kissed and been kissed by a few different people over the years, so the opportunity should have presented itself at least once. I've had a good-bye peck after being dropped off at my house or an enthusiastic hello after being picked up, but there hadn’t been any good, hands under shirts, sweating and panting make-out sessions on four wheels before.

Until I found myself with Haley in my car, parked in a far corner of the local park’s parking lot, going at it in the front seats like the horny teenagers we were. My hand had even managed to make its way past the hem of Haley’s shirt so that I brushed against the smooth skin of her side. She hadn’t protested or batted my hand away, so I decided to ride my luck as far as I could (though not too far—we were in public, after all).

Our day had started out innocently enough. Lunch in the park on a perfect spring Saturday had seemed like a great idea when I had suggested it and Haley had immediately agreed.

Our mistake had been to discuss our plans in front of Marie and Jenny at lunch. Bad idea because instead of a romantic picnic with a cute girl, I’d be spending my Saturday afternoon with two extra people who had invited themselves to tag along. For the second time they’d be crashing one of our dates, which was not cool at all.

I planned to pick Haley up, then we'd meet up with the other two at the park. We all agreed to a potluck-style lunch, and Marie volunteered to bring blankets for us to sit on. Jenny proclaimed that a picnic would be a waste without some games. She was bringing a Frisbee and a paddle ball set she said she had somewhere in her basement.

Though disappointed with the date being ruined, I had still been excited when Saturday morning brought blue skies and plenty of sunshine.

I’d texted Haley to see if I could come over earlier than planned and received an almost immediate confirmation back. After I’d loaded up my car with food and various other things (napkins, plates, and bottled water, just in case), I’d zipped over to Haley’s house.

Her dad had opened the door, but right after we had exchanged greetings, Haley had come barreling out of the kitchen holding two bags. Disappointed in the quick visit, but guessing that Haley felt the same way about her parents that I did mine—namely, embarrassed to have them talking with my friends if it couldn’t be avoided—I’d followed her as she led the march to my car with a quick wave good-bye to her dad.

That’s how we’d ended up at the park two hours earlier than agreed. We had been talking only five minutes before I’d leaned over and placed a light kiss against her cheek mid-sentence. I couldn't help myself.
