My kind of perfect

Just a kiss

I stood in front of a giant white screen listening intently to the men in front of me.
I'm a you tuber, and I was attending my very first Vidcon when The FineBros themselves, Benny and Rafi, approached me to help them with a video they were putting together.
"You've seen that kiss video right?" Benny asks. "Everyone's seen that. The one where they have 20 strangers play tonsil hockey." I say with a grin.
"Exactly!" Benny smiles. "Are we like, doing a parody of that or something? Do I get to slap a stranger or..?" I asks. "Actually, we're making another version of the kiss, except with YouTubers that have never met." Rafi explains. "I mean we could use the Vidcon guests, but we figured it would be better with fellow YouTubers."
Benny puts an hand on my shoulder. "No pressure, if you're not into it, totally cool." He tells me.
I frown, my eyes squinting momentarily as I think. "It's not everyday I get asked to swap spit with a stranger. What the hell, why not. I'm in." I tell them.
"Excellent. We already have a person to pair you with. We're going to go talk to them." Benny says. "Zelda, if you could go sit behind that curtain. I'll let you know when it's time, and you'll come out and meet the person. Do whatever you both have to do to get comfortable, we'll film until a kiss happens." Rafi tells me, pointing to a curtain. "Sure thing!" I answer, heading to sit behind the curtain.
"Oh, what have I gotten myself into?" I sigh.
Taking out my Chapstick, I vigorously apply a layer to my lips. "I'm a few minutes away from kissing a complete stranger while two brothers from YouTube film it. My mom must be proud." I think to myself, laughing. All there was to do was wait for Rafi to get me.

*Marks pov*

"Have you ever kissed a stranger before?"
I stood in front of the giant white screen running a hand through my hair. I grin at Benny.
"Well, one time I was at a party, I had a little to drink, I saw a cute girl, and asked her if she wanted to make out. And we did." I answer. "High school was interesting."
"We all made interesting decisions in high school." Rafi laughs. "You ready to meet your stranger, Mark?"
"Yeah, let's do this. Should be fun."
Rafi walks away to a curtained area, and I face the camera and Benny.
"I'm gonna start filming, Mark. Just remember, it's going to be weird at first, but take your time."
I stretched a bit as a joke, and Benny starts filming. I laugh, and looks to my right at the slowly approaching girl.
There was something about her. She was beautiful, but not in the classic way. She had jaw length cerulean blue hair and a heart shaped face. A few piercings shone in the light, and tattoos decorated parts of her that I could see. She was short, probably around 5,2, and was pleasantly curvy. She was wearing a purple tank top emblazoned with the letters "twloha", and dark skinny jeans.
She stops about a foot an half in front of me, and smiles shyly. "Hi" she says softly. "Hello! My names Mark." I hold out my hand. " she takes it and says "I'm Zelda."
I grin in surprise. "No way! Zelda? Like the Legend of Zelda?? I ask, astonished. She blushes, and shuffles her feet. "Yeah, I come from a family of nerds. Super cool ones, but nerds regardless."
We both laugh, and nervously look around. "So..." She says slowly. "So, we're supposed to kiss." I say nonchalantly. "Whoa, a good kiss takes time!" Zelda laughs. "Let's just stare into each other's eyes to break the tension." I suggest. I step closer to Zelda, and we laugh nervously as we look at each other. "This is hard, you have really pretty eyes." I burst out. Zelda blushes and bends over to hide her face. "Get outta here with that!" She laughs.
Standing up, she covers her mouth giggling and says, "You have pretty eyes too." We laugh, and she puts her head against my chest. We both stopped laughing, knowing the time was coming.
Zelda, being short, ran her hands up my abdomen lightly, until her fingertips were touching the back of my neck. She looked up at me, fully blushing, but something different in her expression. The giggly, unpreparedness had gone away.
I lightly placed my hands on her back and rubbed slightly. Bending my neck, I placed my forehead against hers. Before long, our lips connect, and damn- I don't know if she can feel it, but it's like an electric current is coursing inside of me.
We kiss a moment longer, like we had done this with each other millions of times before.
Breaking apart, we both smile widely, unsure of what to say.
"Cut!" Benny calls out. "That was great you two." Rafi comes over. "We just have one more thing before we let you both go. Benny and I are just going to ask you both questions about the whole thing, and then you're free to go back to enjoying Vidcon!"
"Zelda, I'm gonna be interviewing you, and Mark, Rafi will be with you." Benny tells us. Benny walks back to the curtained area and Zelda smiles and gives Me a small wave and sweet smile before following him. Rafi smiles at Me. "Alright, lets do this."
After 20 minutes, Rafi was finished with his questions. I popped my head back in to find Benny looking at footage on the camera. "Benny, is Zelda still around?" I ask. Benny looks up. "No, she's gone already. Sorry about that, but you're bound to run into her! There's still 4 more hours of Vidcon!"
But I had no such luck. By 10pm I was back in my hotel room, packing. I couldn't stop thinking about Zelda. She was an attractive girl, and we had fit together very well.
Getting into bed, I sigh. There was always next year.
Right?
Or did I really miss out?
