Later On As I walked into Scott's house, I could see that the party was already in full swing. There were people laughing, dancing, and drinking beers all over the place. I made my way through the crowd, high-fiving Scott and grabbing a beer from the keg.

Mark was already there, looking like he was trying to fit in but not quite succeeding. I smiled to myself, feeling a sense of satisfaction that I was finally going to have some fun at his expense.

Scott yelled out, "Alright, everyone! Let's play spin the bottle!" and the room erupted in cheers and laughter. I grabbed a seat on the couch, feeling a sense of excitement wash over me.

Mark sat down next to me, looking like he was trying to pretend like he was having a good time. But I knew better. I could see the tension in his body, the way he was trying to keep his cool.

Scott spun the bottle, and it landed on... me! The room erupted in cheers, and I leaned in to kiss the person next to me... which just so happened to be Mark.

I couldn't believe it. Me, Tom Delonge, kissing Mark, the biggest bully in school. It was like the universe was playing some kind of sick joke on us.

But as our lips touched, something strange happened. Mark didn't pull away. In fact, he started kissing me back. And for a moment, we just forgot about all the drama and the bullying and the angst. We just forgot about everything and let go.

The room was cheering, people were laughing and clapping, and I was just... kissing Mark.

It was weird. It was wild. And it was totally freaking awesome.

As we broke apart, I could see the shock in Mark's eyes. He looked like he couldn't believe what had just happened. And to be honest, I couldn't believe it either.

But as I looked around the room, I saw that everyone was cheering and clapping. They were all smiles and laughter, and for a moment, it felt like we were all just one big happy family.

Scott yelled out, "Alright, let's do it again!" and the room erupted in cheers once more. I looked at Mark, and he looked back at me. For a moment, we just stared at each other, the tension between us palpable.

And then, without saying a word, we leaned in and kissed again.

This time, it was different. This time, it was like we were both in on the joke. We were both laughing and smiling, and our lips were moving in perfect sync.

It was like the whole room had melted away, and all that was left was us. Mark and me, kissing like our lives depended on it.

I don't know how long we kissed for, but it felt like hours. It felt like we were stuck in some kind of time warp, where nothing else mattered except for this moment.

Finally, we broke apart, gasping for air. The room was still cheering, but it was like background noise now. All I could see was Mark, smiling at me like he was actually happy.

And I was happy too. I was happy because, for the first time in my life, I felt like I was part of something. I felt like I belonged.

As we sat there, grinning at each other like idiots, I knew that this was it. This was the moment that was going to change everything.

This was the moment that was going to make me forget all about the bullying and the drama and the angst. This was the moment that was going to make me forget about everything except for Mark.

And as we clinked our beers together and took a long, slow drink, I knew that I was in trouble.

As we sat there, drinking and laughing, I could feel the beer taking hold. The room was spinning, and Mark's face was blurring in and out of focus. But I didn't care. I was having the time of my life.
