"Hey, since we uh...kissed last year and the year before that, why don't we just promise to be each other's first kiss of the year?" Alex asked.
We were currently sitting on top of the roof. See, my parents and Alex's parents are very close so it's already like a tradition of my family to invite the Summer family for our annual new years countdown. But since old people parties are very boring we usually sneak out after dinner and go to the roof to wait for the fireworks.
"Uhm..maybe not. I mean, really, we're going to kiss every new year? How stupid is that idea? Besides, I'm not really into that kiss thingy."
"Come on, please?"
"No."
"Please?"
"Nope."
"Pretty please?"
"N to the O."
"Why not?"
"Because."
"Come on."
"Why do you want to anyway?" I asked after getting tired of his pleading. I swear Alex is gonna be the death of me.
"Because, it's just a kiss, a peck really, what harm can it do? And haven't you always wondered what it's like to kiss -even if it's just a peck- when the clock strikes twelve and fireworks go up?"
"Not really."
"Come on!" Alex whined.
"Okay, okay." I chuckled. "If ever okay? If ever I agree to your stupid idea then can we set rules?"
"Sure we can!" Alex said cheerfully.
"Okay so I'll set the rules okay? But please note that I still haven't agreed to your stupid idea. So anyway, here are the rules:
1. Anyone from the deal can stop this whole shennanigance anytime.
2. No new year's kiss if one of us is taken.
3. This deal shall not be known to another soul unless both parties agrees that the poor soul shall know.
4. Kiss will not go farther than a peck.
5. No strings attached.
Any questions? Or do you want to add or change something from the rules?"
"Hmm..Just one."
"What?" I asked checking the time. 11:54 pm.
"Number four, change it. I would say that the kiss can go farther than peck a as long as both parties are okay with it."
Why would one of us want to go farther than a peck? "Fine, whatever. Deal."
Five minutes later we sealed our deal with a peck on the lips.
It's just a kiss anyway, what harm can it do?
Oh how wrong you are fourteen year old me.
How wrong you are.

New Year's Kiss (EDITING)
Teen FictionI promised Alex to always be his first kiss of the year as long as both of us are not taken, three years ago. I thought it was no big deal back then it was just a kiss, a peck on the lips to be exact. Oh how wrong fourteen-year-old me was. We were l...
