With their fathers being business partners, and their families taking annual summer trips to Sicily together Micheal and Michelle were inseparable. That was, until Michael's family had to move away to sunny California. Leaving Michelle and their fri...
My words were cut off my Michaels lips crashing into mine. It took me a second to realize what was going on. Next thing I know my lips are kissing him back. Moving in sync to his soft lips. Enjoying the moment I never knew I wanted to happen. Michael leans back ending the kiss, leaving me wanting his lips back on mine more than ever. Things got quiet between the two of us. I decided to ask him why he needed to talk to me. "So was that uh what you needed to talk to me about haha" I chuckle making the energy around us more cheery. I could feel my cheeks burning red as I looked down and fidgeted with my hands waiting for his response. *clears throat* "umm... yea" Michael response while rubbing the back of his neck. I turned to see that his face was almost if not more red then mine. We sit I silence a for a few moments until Michael gets an incoming call from my brother Vincent. Michael answers then hands the phone over to me. "Here. He wants to talk to you." I grab the phone and begin to talk with my brother
The phone call Michelle - M Vincent - V
V - aye Mitchie when are you and Sanzone getting home huh? It's almost 5 o'clock. M- Vinnie calm down Michael and I are at that park near the house. We got side tract. Were on our way now. V- okay, hurry up cause we gotta pack. Pa wants the luggage by the door by 8. M- okay, see you when we get there. Bye.
End call
I hadn't noticed how much time had gone by. I couldn't believe that it was nearing 5 o'clock already. "We should get going. Vinnie's annoyed that were not back yet, and I got to start packing so im all ready for tomorrow" I say shyly. I turn to start walking, because Michael hadn't moved from his seat on the bench. I get some ways away when I suddenly feel someone grab me by my waist and spin me around. It was Michael. He kissed me once again. Dare I say this was better than the first time he kissed me. This kiss had a sort of confidence that the other lacked. I wrap my arms around his neck pulling him closer, and deepening the kiss. After what seemed like for ever I'm the one to pull away this time. "Michael what are we doing?" I ask out of breath. Our foreheads resting on one another. "You don't know how long I've wanted to do that" Michael says giving me a smirk. "What?" I reply back in obvious confusion. My head was still spinning from our passionate kiss. "I like you Michelle. I've liked you for YEARS now" Michael exclaims now with a big smile on his face. I had never thought of Michael like that before. In a romantic way that's is. I thought back to all of our good memories together (which were all of our times together), and started to realize that I liked him back. I smiled brightly at him and jumped up and hugged him tightly. "I really like you too Michael" I whisper into his ear. I could feel his heart rate speed up when I said that. I come back from our hug and we just gaze into each other's eyes and savor this moment.
We head back to the house hand in hand, but once we got home we split apart. We didn't want out parents to know about us yet. We didn't even know what we were yet. I quickly ate my favorite eggplant parmigiana and ran up stairs to start packing.
After packing
I brought my suit case down stairs leaving by the front door next to the others. I made sure to leave out my clothes for the air port in the morning so I would have something comfortable to wear on the long flight home. I go ahead and change into my pajamas:

And head to bed. I fall asleep smiling at the memory Michael and I made today. Still imagining the kiss we shared. It was my first kiss, and I am glad it was with Michael. What we confessed at the park has just changed our friendship forever.
