Bass and Zach have been best friends for as long as they can remember, which admittedly hasn't been that long. Second-grade life had been breezy enough so far Bassium Barnes. At least until his best friend Zach asks him about kissing. This short story tells the tale of two best-friends questioning the norms of the other kids around them while presenting the pressure for Bassy to find a childhood sweetheart of his own. There's CapriSuns, pb&j's, see-saws, and apple trees, but is there anyone for Bass to share an innocent smooch with?
