Chapter 38: Kiss and Tell

If you know Agnes Darling, you definitely know me. She makes a pretty big deal over me, and although she won’t admit it, I’m her favorite!

My sisters are currently away at university for their last term, and every since they’ve been gone, I’ve been feeling like an only child. Don’t get me wrong it has more ups than downs, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss them just little bit.

When Toni Clinton texted me to ask if she could borrow my homework to copy, I couldn’t say yes fast enough, and reason to see her was reason enough for me. I knew I wouldn’t let her down because I copied my homework from one of the Chapman twins. They’re geniuses.

She said she’d meet me in the school parking lot. When I saw her, my stomach did flips. But when it came to her, that was nothing new.

Ah, Toni Clinton. Toni has a body that can make a grown man cry, curves in all the right places! You know that girl from your school who everyone either wanted to be, or be with? Yeah that’s Toni. She’s drop dead gorgeous no doubt about it, and although she can be a bit snobby, I’d lie, cheat, and steal to get a shot with her!

“Thanks Seymour! You going to the barn tonight?” She asked.

 Trying not to sound too eager, I casually replied, “Eh, I’ll see if I can make it.”

The Barn is where the cool kids hang out and “participate in shenanigans” as the adults put it. It’s basically just the restroom area at the festival grounds, that we usually visit in between festivals when nobody is there.

A bunch of friends showed up, and we decided to play a game that was somewhat of a mixture between spin the bottle and seven minutes in heaven. You spin the bottle, and then get seven minutes alone with whoever it lands on in the bathroom. Stupid, yeah, but there isn’t much to do around here.

As we all sat down in a circle, Brandt sat an empty beer bottle in front of me.

“You first, Goldie locks.” He said.

“Aw why me?” I whined, putting the bottle in the middle of the circle.

“Too bad your hot ass sisters aren’t here, I’d give them 7 minutes they would never forget.” Said Brandt. Dorothy nudged him with her elbow and gave him a dirty look, and I rolled my eyes, as I began to spin the bottle.

I began to imagine all the possibilities as the bottle spun, and began to realize this could go either good, or very very bad.

The bottle began to slow down and finally landed between Kirsten and Wesley, not a second later Brandt jumped to his feet.

“That’s totally on the redhead! Go ahead ma’am, and give him some tongue!” He said, laughing hysterically.

Brandt could be such a prick sometimes. He’s going to grow up to be some judgmental republican or something, I just know it. But he was always up for some crazy adventure, so it made his nastiness worth it.

Dorothy Button and Toni began to snicker amongst themselves.

Why couldn’t it be one of those two? I mean Kirsten is cool and all, I’ve just always seen her as a family friend. More innocent than sexy. My mom told me a little bit about what she’s been through as a child and I’d rather be protecting her than hooking up with her in a bathroom.

I mean, I’d even rather go in there with Kizzie. And that’s saying a lot, because she’s been one of my best friends since I was little, it would be so weird. Yet it would still feel more comfortable than with Kirsten. She’s really the only reason Kirsten even tagged along, Kizzie and Kirsten are pretty tight.

I decided to swallow my anxieties and just go for it. I was really hoping this wouldn’t hurt my chances with Toni, but if I didn’t do it, Brandt would never let me live this one down!

“Well little lady, let’s get this over with. Men or women’s?” I asked.

“There’s no way I’d go in the men’s restroom, who knows what’s growing in there!” She giggled.

I took a deep breath and led her into the women’s restroom.

The bathroom was small, without much room to move around in. I felt somewhat claustrophobic. I took my phone out to look at the time, and when I looked up at her, she looked so nervous and timid.

That made me feel even more uncomfortable. All I see when I look at her is the little girl who moved across the street from me who loved Momo dolls and hopscotch. She’s supposed to be about my age, but I felt so much older than her. This was going to be so awkward.

After about a minute or two, we warmed up to each other, and goofed around like we always do when she’s at my house, curled up on the sofa in her pjs watching TV with Gwendolyn or something. We took a few pictures, and made silly faces at one another. Maybe this wouldn’t be so bad.

Then we heard a knock on the door…

“2 minutes left, wrap it up, children!”  Brandt shouted.

“Look Sy, we don’t have to do anything. I could lie for you, so that Brandt doesn’t-”

I threw my arms around her almost aggressively, pressing my lips against hers. I really don’t know what came over me, I guess I found it so sweet and endearing  that she was willing to lie for me. Well I wanted to make it so she didn’t even have to lie.

,

Surprisingly, the kiss lasted quite a while.

“Mmmp” She mumbled, signaling for me to get off, that she couldn’t breathe.

I pulled myself off of her, grinning as she turned bright red.

“Oh my gosh, Sy, wow!” She gasped.

Then my grin turned into an involuntary, full-blown smile. I wanted so bad to tell her how adorable she was, but I stopped myself. Leading her on would be a bad idea at this point.

When the time ran out, we composed ourselves and walked out of the restroom, everyone was standing there, watching, waiting for an explanation.

Oh did I mention that was my very first kiss? Not how I pictured it at all, that’s for certain!

Toni looked away, obviously pretending she wasn’t jealous, but I could tell she was. And that’s a good thing, it’s a sign she’s interested. I tried my best not to smile from ear to ear like a big idiot!

“So what did you guys do?” Dorothy prodded, in her cute high pitched voice.

I took a moment to answer them, they were all hanging on my every word  in anticipation. I wanted to tease them a bit.

“I…I don’t kiss and tell…” I said smoothly, as Kirsten blushed again.

Kizzie approached Kirsten, and they both began giggling and whispering.

It didn’t take long for the rumors to spread, because the Chapman twins immediately pulled out their cellphones, their fingers tapping the keyboards a hundred miles a minute.

A few days later, I saw Toni at the festival talking with Mrs. Bedlington, Judging by her outfit, she was totally trying to send me a message. She knew what she was doing!

I approached her, with my irresistible swagger, “One word: Prom” I said, winking.

 She placed her hands on her waist. “Are you asking me to prom, Mr. Darling?!”

“Mr Darling is my father, baby. But indeed, I am.” I said.

“Well I wasn’t going to go, but now that I have a date I guess I can. Just try not to stalk me afterwards okay?” She teased, pulling her arms together.

It took every fiber of my little hormonal body to not to stare at her chest.

“Haha no promises! Do you have a window in your shower by chance?” I joked.

I quickly changed the subject when I heard Mrs. Bedlington huffing and puffing. She’s always so darn proper, for a split second, I began to panic, wondering if she’d tell my mom. But mom doesn’t even like her, she wouldn’t believe her over me for a second, I have nothing to worry about!

I continued to stand there flirting with Toni, until Mrs. Bedlington left, and the sun went down. Even then I continued charming the perfectly body hugging, pants off of her, I was on a roll!

Pretty soon Kirsten approached Toni and I,  and asked how my sisters were, since she hasn’t heard from them in a while.

I’ll admit I loved talking about my sisters. The idea of college excited me, and I couldn’t wait to follow in their footsteps at Sims U. Both girls listened to me blab and blab about every detail my sisters gave me. Although Kirsten seemed to be more interested. After all, she and my sisters loved each other, Kirsten looks up to all of us Darling kids as role models.

I then pulled out my phone to show Kirsten a ridiculous video that Persy sent me, of Gwendy making silly faces at the mascot.

Kirsten’s laugh was so contagious! When she laughs, her little pug-like nose scrunches up and she begins giggling like no other. I was so set on saying different things to make her laugh, that I didn’t even notice Toni getting bored and walking away. What? I may just need a guide book on how to please women. Mom’s going to love hearing this one!

I felt terrible when I realized Toni was no where in sight. When the cab came to get Kirsten she asked if I wanted to hop in as well, the driver looked creepy so I thought I should go with her. Who knows what would have happened if she went with him alone?!

But as time went by, Toni’s sexy self finally forgave me, and I was still going to prom with her. I wanted to make this prom special, because not only was it my first prom, but I felt the need to make up for my mistake, and show Toni that I truly am sorry.

“You look so handsome, baby boy!” Mom says combing my hair.

“Mom. Really. I’m not feeling the slicked back hair very much.”

Then the door bell rang, I quickly messed my hair back up and jumped out of my seat.

“Erik, quick! Get the camera!” Mom yelled.

My mom took like, a hundred pictures of my date and I. Although I’m not mad at her. Should anything happen between Toni and I, I want proof that I took the hottest girl in school to prom.

Our lovely carriage, or the limo as some call it, whisked us away to our fairytale prom night that consisted of sweaty, horny, teenagers in a grungy school gym masked by glitter and streamers for this special, one night annual occasion.

I had the time of my life on prom night, all my friends were there, having a great time, and Toni just couldn’t keep her hands off of me! It’ such a shame that that night had to eventually end.

Kizzie and Kirsten looked like they were having a blast all on their own.

And of course Brandt Martin didn’t let Dorothy Button out of his site, he always has first pick on the girls, and Dorothy was his lady of choice for the time being. It’s fine with me though, I couldn’t think of a better date for myself if I tried.

as every moment passed, our bodies become closer and closer, until eventually, our arms were around one another in a cozy embrace. Then she said out loud, out of the blue, “You should just be my boyfriend.”

“There’s nothing I want more.” I replied.

“Yay! Hey I’m going to run to the locker room and change into something more comfortable, this dress is killing me! Stay right here K?” She said, motioning for Dorothy to follow.

As I waited for her to return my eyes wandered around the room, just in time to see Wesley stepping on Kirsten’s foot. Although I did get a chuckle out of that one, I felt bad for the both of them!

Toni returned wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, probably the simplest outfit I’ve ever seen her in, since she’s always so fashionable. Truth is, she could wear a burlap sack and still be the most beautiful girl in the room.

“Did you miss me…. boyfriend?! she squealed.

“Yes, actually, I really did. I said, gazing into her eyes…

Prom night was perfect.
