"He did what?!?!", Meagen screamed through the phone. "He kissed me.". I said chopping up an oreo. "Did it feel good?", She asked. "Yeah. He actually took my breath away.", I said pouring the oreos into my icecream. "Really?!?!?!?", She shouted through the phone. "Meagen, calm down.", I said walking into the living room and turning on the tv. "Was it good enough to make you lose your virginity?", She asked. I knew her eyes were really big right now. "No. I barely even know him, but the kiss made me feel like I've known him all my life.", I said shoving a spoonful of icecream into my mouth. "Amy, I want you to go to his house right now. No wait, go into your room and find a big coat. Put on a pair of heels and nothing else. No bra, no underwear. Walk into his room and drop the coat but stand in a sexy position. Then let him take control of your body! You have a perfect body Amy. If you don't give it up to anybody else I will turn into a lesbian.", She said laughing. "I knew it! You lesbian!", I screamed laughing.
