I sat opposite my brother and my mum next to me at the head of the table.
"How did school go for you?" My mum asked my 12 year old brother as we all quietly munched away at our dinner.
"It was good, my teacher gave me an award for topping my maths class" my brother grinned.
"And Bethwynn - oh wait" my mum cut herself off.
"Why? What happened?" My brother quizzed in confusion.
"She just did something bad" my mum mumbled.
"Why? What did you do?" He asked me.
I sat quietly and stared at the palms of my hands. I glanced at my mother and we both shared a look.
"I don't think you need to know, sweety" she told him politely.
"Mum" he groaned.
"It's none of your business" I snapped, slouching back in my chair.
"She just has a week detention" my mum blurted out as I then quickly shot her a sharp glare.
"What?! What for?!" He almost shouted.
"Forditchingclasswithaboy" my mum spoke rushed, hoping my brother wouldn't here her, but he did.
"Are you kidding me" he laughed.
"What?!" I whined.
"Bethwynn's got a boyfriend" my brother sang.
"Shut up!" I shouted, stuffing my mouth with more food.
"You loooove him!" He continued to sing.
"Shut the fuck up or I'll slit your throat" I warned but he continued to taunt and tease me.
Him teasing me continued on until I stood up and took my empty dinner plate to the sink.
I silently walked past my mum and my brother and marched upstairs into my room.
"Ah! What the fuck, I thought you left ages ago!" I screamed, shocked to see Joe laying on my bed.
"I would've got caught" he shrugged, playing with the loom band I made him.
"Seriously, we're going to get into some deep shit if you don't leave" I furrowed my eye brows together.
"Beth, it's okay because I can just leave when everyone is asleep." Joe shrugged simply.
"But my mum checks on me regularly, where can you hide in a place where it doesn't take long to hide you" I thought aloud, scanning my room.
"Can't I just go behind your bed and if she comes around to the side I'm on, I can just roll under it?" Joe asked, as if it was the most obvious option.
"Haha yeah" I replied nervously. I started pace around the room.
"Why are you so nervous" Joe chuckled.
"Is it really that obvious?" I sighed, sitting down onto my bed.
"Yeah" he laughed, scooting closer to me and placing his hands on my knee.
Oh shit
I thought.
He's so close to me!
I mentally screamed.
He tucked a piece of my hair behind my ear and looked into my eyes, as if he was trying to pierce my soul.
"Beth?" He called.
"Hmm" I hummed in reply.
"Have you ever kissed anyone?" He asked as I could feel my heart rate speed up.
"No" I replied with a shaky tone.
He smiled to himself and started leaning in. I didn't know what to do but place my arms on his shoulders.
I started to lean in as well and until I could feel his lips started to lightly graze against mine.
I was so in shock so I quickly jerked back.
"I'm sorry" I frowned.
"Why" he then frowned as well.
"We are only fourteen, my first kiss is like losing my virginity."
