*i found this on tumblr*
You were 18 and had never kissed anyone. Whenever you told anyone they asked you why and honestly you didn’t have an answer. You had never been in the right place at the right time, that’s all. It didn’t affect your life though, you still were successful in your career and had good relationships with your family and friends. You didn’t dwell on it, you knew it would happen when the timing was right.
You were curled up on your sofa watching a movie when your mobile rang. The caller ID flashed up, showing that it was your best friend Brad. You two had been friends for a couple of years now and had both found success in your careers. He travelled a lot so you didn’t spend as much time as you wished you could, but whenever he was back in the same city as you, you always made sure to meet up.
“Hey Y/N. Are you dressed?” Brad spoke as soon as you answered the phone.
“No, I’m sitting here naked.” You joked, shaking your head at his stupid phrasing of the question.
“Hot. Describe it.” Brad joked back, laughing.
“Shut up,” You laughed. “Why did you want to know if I was dressed or not?”
“I meant if you’re in your pyjamas or not. Anyway, if you’re in pyjamas get changed because I’m picking you up in 10 minutes.”
“What? Why? Where are we going?” You spoke quickly, confused.
“Stop asking so many questions, it’s a surprise.” Brad laughed before hanging up.

10 minutes later and Brad was knocking at your front door. You had gotten changed from your pyjamas into a hoodie and jeans. It was 1AM so you knew Brad wouldn’t be taking you anywhere fancy. Thankfully you were right, when you opened the door you were faced with Brad who was also wearing a hoodie and jeans.
“Thought you were naked?” Brad smirked as you locked up your apartment.
“You wish.” You laughed back.

Brad had been driving for what felt like forever. You weren’t completely sure if you were ever going to stop anywhere. Just as you were about to ask you felt the car slow down.
“Are we finally here?” You asked Brad, who kept his eyes on the road.
“Yep.” He smiled, turning to look at you and winking.
Brad parked the car and you noticed that you were at a theme park, which obviously wasn’t open.
“Why are we here?” You asked Brad who was getting out the car, so you did the same.
“There’s a beach down there,” Brad pointed past the ferris wheel. “I wanna show you it, it’s beautiful.”
“Let’s go then.” You smiled as Brad reached down for your hand.
Physical contact between you and Brad wasn’t uncommon. There had been a countless amount of nights were he stayed over at yours, or you at his, and you would sleep in the same bed together. Nothing sexual ever happened though. The furthest you two had gone was cuddling, although you both wished for more.
“Y/N, can I tell you a secret?” Brad broke the silence as you were walking through the park.
“Sure,” You smiled, looking up at him.
“I’ve never loved a girl. I mean, the girls in the past I’ve been with, I’ve never felt love for them. Sure, I liked them a lot but I dunno… I’ve never felt that connection.” Brad muttered, smiling sadly at you.
“Wanna know something worse?” You laughed slightly as Brad nodded. “I’ve never even kissed anyone.”
“Really?” Brad was surprised. He stopped walking and so, you did the same.
“Really.”
“Well, that has to change.” Brad smirked before starting to walk again.
“What do you mean?” You furrowed your eyebrows together, jogging slightly to catch him up.
“You not being kissed. That’s gotta change.” Brad smiled. “C’mon.”
He took your hand again and walked down steep steps to get to the beach. As soon as you saw the skyline you were speechless. He was right, it was beautiful.
“Wow.” You whispered. The only other sounds were the waves crashing on to shore and you felt so peaceful and safe.
“It’s beautiful, right?” Brad whispered back, afraid to speak so loud in an area so calm.
“Definitely.”
“Just like you.” Brad smiled, turning to face you.
“Hilarious.” You rolled your eyes, turning to look up at him.
“I’m serious.” Brad replied, cupping your face with his hands and stroking his thumb over your cheek. “You’re so beautiful.”
Brad’s lips were pressed to yours in a matter of seconds. You couldn’t think straight; everything around you seemed to stop and the only thing that mattered was you and Brad. You felt like there was a million fireworks going off in your stomach, which sounded cliché and cheesy but it was true.
Brad slowly pulled away and you took a few seconds before opening your eyes. As soon as you did you were met with Brad’s eyes, which seemed to look more beautiful than before.
“I love you so much, Y/N. You don’t know how long I’ve waited to do that.” Brad whispered, pressing his forehead to yours.
“I love you too Brad. I think I do.” You whispered back, smiling and pressing another kiss to his lips.
