“He kissed me,” I admitted to my sister and best friend. We’d gotten together for a girls’ night. With Jason working tonight and my nephew off somewhere with his friends again, we chose Wednesday night as our night to get together. Both Casey and Runa sat with their mouths gaping after I dropped the bomb. The shock quickly turned to intrigue which led to a full-blown interrogation as they leaned forward and ordered me to ‘dish the deets’.

“Dennis kissed you?” Runa asked, confused. Her stinkface was almost laughable.

“No!” I half-shouted, trying to keep my voice down. “Travis kissed me. Dennis was acting like a possessive douche. Dennis showed up with the Boy-Go-Round and got drunk. He tried to pick a fight and naturally, Travis wouldn’t let it go.”

“Really?”Casey burst into a fit of giggles.

“Yeah, really. Dennis was so pissed. They started shouting at each other. It was getting really heated, really fast. People around us were starting to notice and then just like that . . .” I snapped my fingers. “. . . Dennis took a swing.”

“I thought you said Travis punched him?” Runa asked as she took a sip of her favorite blueberry lemonade.

“He did, but Dennis threw the first punch. It was after that when Travis clocked him a good one. The next thing I knew, they were on the ground beating the shit out of each other.”

“Then what happened?” Both women were on the edge of their seats, barely able to contain their excitement.

“I kept shouting at them to stop, but neither were listening to me. So, I ran. I was so embarrassed because everyone was staring and I was so flippin' angry that I just took off. That's when Travis chased after me. He found me right outside the gate. Naturally, we argued and just as I was about to leave, he grabbed me by the shoulders and laid one on me.” Boy did he ever. I was still feeling its aftershocks.

“Oh my gosh!” Casey squealed and clapped her hands. “I knew it! I knew he liked you!”

“Don’t get all excited. It’s not like I liked it,” I lied. Unfortunately for me, both Runa and Casey saw right through me.

“Bullshit!” Runa laughed. “I can tell by your face that you definitely enjoyed having his lips on you. It’s written all over your face that you liked it, and that you liked it a lot.”

Casey bulldozed right past Runa and asked, “Was he a good kisser?”

I debated lying, but again, I couldn’t. My two closest confidantes would see right through it.

“Fuck, yes,” I heaved out, relieved to finally admit it. “He’s an amazing kisser. The moment his mouth landed on mine, I felt it all the way to my core. I’ve never gotten the tingles like that from just a kiss. I swear, if Dennis hadn’t shown when he did, I would have come right on the spot—"

"Dee!" My name rang out across the restaurant, cutting off my words and stealing my attention. I looked up to seeAmie running at full speed towards me, her little face lit up with pure joy.
