First Kiss Fiction

A story is a change, large or small, in the universe of a person. // Edward P. Jones

In one way or another, writers of every discipline are constantly driven to discover what is "universe-altering" for their characters. All stories, if they are to matter, have to have something irreversible at stake. And what could be more of a change that a First Kiss in someone's life. Whether it was a train wreck, an ecstasy, terrifying or a bore. That moment stays with us for life. Remember? Please bring your First Kiss to the page in a micro-story (300 words or less) and Write whatever needs to be Written!;

Write your first-kiss micro-story. 300 words or less. Give your story a title.

Pucker or I'll Punch

At the age of 6 I was desperately in love with a boy who could climb the tallest tree, had a face full of freckles and preferred to eat red over blue crayons- clearly the best catch in grade 1. He didn't even know I existed. So I did what any tomboy would do- pulled him behind the school to look for frogs. He found the first and offered it up with a giant jam covered smile. "Pucker or I'll Punch!" I exclaimed and dove in for the kiss.

i was 15, we were at camp and i had been kind of with this boy. we were lying on his bunk one night with everyone else in our program just chillin around the cabin. he asked me what i would be willing to do with him, while everyone else was still in the room and i said "not much, i dont like an audience." he looked at me for a while and then asked 'can i kiss you?" so i said "only if you WANT TO kiss me' and he said "well i want to" so i said "so kiss me" and he did...

17. "Can I kiss you?" he said. "Yeah, of course you can." I replied. We had just had tacos. He put his tongue in my mouth; it almost ruined it for me because I wanted the princess first kiss, but I wouldn't have had it any other way. I put my tongue in his mouth, and we continued on that way for another 10 minutes or so.

13: I was at my best friends house and we had a few other people there, we were playing some game but then me and a guy named Dan got bored so we went behind my friends couch and kissed,

15, my boyfriend kissed me in a deserted hallway at a debate tournament. i was really mad my first kiss was so incredibly nerdy. it was perfect.

I'm 17, and I've yet to have a first kiss. It's a bit embarrassing. I seem to be the only one responding to this who has never been kissed... Oh well. I guess it will come with time.

I was 18 years old, on spring break in Puerto Rico with 2 of my best friends. We met these 3 guys at a bar, went back to their condo with them, and I made out with one in a hot tub, in the living room, and in his bed. If nothing else, it made for an interesting story.

I got my first kiss when I was 17. It was the night Blades Of Glory came out. A girl/classmate/coworker had told me she'd go with me, after I awkwardly admitted the only person probably willing to go was my Mom. In the month leading up to it, I made sure her favorite songs were cued up on my iPod whenever she looked at it, took up rollerblading and ensured my connections at the SPCA knew I'd be boring puppies a lot. That night, after the movie, I took her to a look out (where 14 yellow roses, and note explaining what each one represented, were hidden), nervously tried to remember the little speech I had written out and put my hands out for a hug. She responded with a double high five. I think I said, in the end, I just said "Will you go out with me?" and while getting hugged for the first time by a girlfriend, grabbed the roses. None of this was her first of anything, and she want to kiss me. I pursed my lips and after three awkward make out attempts on my fish face, she must have clued in that it was going to take a while. We just sat together for a while, holding hands. Later I bought some celebratory corn dogs with two friends.

I was in the 7th grade, at a slumber party.
We snuck out and met up with boys from our class.
Tony and I kissed.
It was sweet and romantic.
I remembered saying, "I want to do that again. A lot."
Tony is now gay.

Puppy Love on the Rio Grande

We spoke on the phone for weeks, each conversation building up the anticipation of our meeting. When that day finally came my stomach was in my throat as I brushed some blush on the apples of my cheeks. The sound of my phone ringing made my heart beat out of my chest - he was outside. As I slowly raised my head to look up at him a feeling that has no words went through my body.He had explored the depths of my soul with conversations over the phone that seemed to have no end, but in that moment the only thing I could muster up was a nervous smile. We sat on a bench near the water's edge and as I gazed at the calm and continuous motion of the water, his fingers gently nudged my chin in the direction of his lips. His eyes were slightly filled with the gentle light of the moon and as he closed his eyes and moved closer toward me, I followed suit. As our lips fell into place electricity filled my body, the pace of my heart had no pattern - I had just had my first kiss by the banks of the Rio Grande.

Marriage

When I was in kindergarten a boy in my class used to tell my mother he wanted to marry me. Since my mom was a volunteer parent, I always had to make a good impression & hang out with him. Just so he wouldn't be hurt. During recess he grabbed me by the wrist & had some yarn in his hand from class. He put it around my wrist & kissed me on my lips. He ran away & I cried:p

When I was 8, I pushed a boy into a cubby and kissed him.

I was 13 and dating a "bad a*s" kinda boy. He climbed my trellis, snuck in my room, and kissed me right before he left at sunrise.

wonderful! :D

Unexpected.

I was 14 & it was the last day of a trip to California I was on with my best friend's family. My best friend & I had met a 2 cute (& much older) boys from Australia at the poolside a few days before, as they were staying at the same hotel as us. When we were waiting in the lobby for the cab to take us to the airport, the boys came down to say goodbye. Being the completely unexperienced teen I was, I didn't expect anything more than a hug. But to my surprise, he kissed me. I was shocked & didn't know how to react. It was weird to me at the time, mostly because he was so much older & kissing was so unnatural to me, but looking back on it, it's pretty neat to say that my first kiss was on vacation from an international student! My bff & I still laugh at the whole experience to this day, & have a picture of the 4 of us that will forever contain this bizzare, but special memory.

Yuck.

Biggest regret and relatively uninteresting.
Thought he was wonderful for ages, he kissed me, I got blown off the very next day.. no idea where he is now, though the last I heard he was in jail somewhere.
I wasn't surprised.
Lets just say I was a pretty gullible teenager.
Though I have decided that it never happened.. and that the next time I kiss someone I shall be at the very least engaged. :)

I was 15 and he was a senior and very popular. He came to the school choir concert that I was singing in. After the concert we went for a walk. It was a warm late spring evening and I was over the moonto be with him. Just as we walked back to the school, he turned and pulled me close by my waist and kissed me. I thought " thats it, now we're in love". Classmates were starting to leave the school and many of them saw us. I was on top of the world because he like me, it was perfect ! The next day at school people were whispering and giggling. I overheard some girls say,"what could he possibly see in that funny looking girl" He graduated and left for college.

!THE BEST KISS EVER!
i was sitting in my manshon, watching dacncing with the stars and reading a book on my kendel, when i saw fireworks out my window. they matched the pinks and oranges of the sunset on the ocean. then i saw my name in cersive in the fireworks. i looked outside and saw a huge fondant cake made by the cake boss. then my favorite band came jumping out of it playing my favorite song! at that vary moment, the green lantern( aka rain wilson) flew up to my dimond incressted window ceal. he looked into my eyes and said anything can alwayse happen at any moment, then he kissed me!!!
p.s. respond if you like

I used to meet her behind her house on a lonely road. That day I arrived a bit late and I was certain that she may not be able to make an excuse to come out. It was a bit dark by now and I parked my bicycle and sat on a culvert waiting for her.
I heard the door of her room open and saw her coming. I was excited as I was meeting her after more than a week.
She came and sat next to me, smiling and beautiful as ever. She held my hands and whispered, ' I love you" in my ears. It was the first time she had ever come so close to me and our faces brushed. There was silence and we just stared at each other. I guess we were waiting for the other to make a move. I looked into her eyes and drew her towards me and placed my lips on hers. I was not too sure as to what would be her reaction but she put her arms around my neck and we remained locked for a short while. I looked into her eyes and said, ' I love you too'. That was it.
I got up and got on to my bicycle, absolutely elated that I had kissed the girl I loved. I was so excited that all the way home I was overtaken by a feeling of utter bliss as to what I had done. I dont think I will ever forget that moment.
Just a few weeks ago we went to the same culvert..........and kissed.....just as we had kissed forty years ago!!!!!
