13 years for a kiss

226 30 13
                                    

          I am nervous and it had only just started snowing. The Christmas smell is all over town. You must be wondering what is this Christmas smell? It is the smell of roasted turkeys, pines and fresh candies it is the smell of Christmas. The church bells are ringing at the town hall and I can't help getting goosebumps thinking about her. I mean we were planing this for a month now. Our first kiss. She turned 13 last sunday and we promised we would try this two nights before the Christmas eve. I almost bailed out because of my nervousness. But I couldn't let her stand in the park alone waiting for me, could I? 

         I turn around, there I see her. She looks confused as she walks over the bridge of the park. Her eyes searching for something. I take a deep breath and make myself visible walking away from the hedges. Her eyes comes in contact with mine and instantly her cheeks turn a beautiful crimson. She is wearing a red sweater with a big snowflake knitted on one side. She slowly walks towards me. Her blue eyes coming closer to mine. They look clearer then ever. She is just a feet away from me now. So, What should I do? Should I make the first move? I am the boy after all? 

        I look at her searching for clues and she tries to look at the ground and everywhere except me. 

"Walk with me.." I finally let out stuttering and she smiles nodding. 

    ......Stay with me

          Baby stay with me, tonight

          Don't leave me alone

          Walk with me

          Come and walk with me

          To the edge of all we've ever known......

  We walk almost to the end of the park overlooking the whole town. The city lights play peek-a-boo as it disappears and appears again. I look at her and she is looking at me. I lean in a little and so does she. Our mouth's just inches away, I close my eyes and imagine the city lights twinkling and I also imagine what she might be imagining. And in a moment our lips meet. It just meets for seconds and we break-away instantly. It feels like every nerve in my body woke from a deep sleep and I can already feel my face heating up. After sorting my thoughts I look at her and she somehow looks more beautiful now. She smiles a little and walks away from the spot and I follow her. 

      ......I can see you there with the city lights

           Fourteenth floor, pale blue eyes

           I can breathe you in

          Two shadows standing by the bedroom door

         No I could not want you more than I did right then

         As our heads leaned in......

       I walk and walk but she is nowhere. As I pass a hedge I hear a muffled laughter and it doesn't take me long to realize its her. I pace back and yes, its her. She runs and I run behind her. I wait to take a breath leaning on a tree when she appears in front of me from nowhere and I am just about to say, 

"Gotch---" but I am cut off by our lips meeting again. Only this time its a little longer and a little more beautiful. Eyes closed this time all I can see is her beautiful laughing face and I can hear my heart beating in another level. We break-away finally and I rub my thumb against her cheek as she stares at me. My knees seem to weaken. I don't know if it should happen to me? Its a girl thing right? Then why do I feel like my legs will break. 

    ...... Don't run away

          And it's hard to love again

         When the only way its been

         When the only love you know, just walked away

           If it's something that you want, darling you don't have to run

          You dont have to go

          Just stay with me

          Baby stay with me......

"I think I love you..." she says holding my hands. For a second I didn't know what to say but I think something in me did because I replied, 

"You're so beautiful...I can't help falling in love with you too!" 

    ......I'm not sure where this is gonna go

         But in this moment, all I know is the skyline through the window

        The moon above you and the streets below

        Hold my breath as your moving in.

       Taste your lips and feel your skin

      When the time comes, baby don't run

      Just kiss me slowly.......
