I was a Junior in high school, and my sisters had all moved out. I was never one of the popular girls, I didn’t have on the best cloths or the newest cell phone, I was respectful to my teachers and probably only had three really close friends. I wasn’t super skinny, and I had dirty blonde hair. I also had a huge 'crush' on this guy named Bobby, we had talked a little before and had many classes together, but I didn't think he was very interested in me, I just loved his smile. One day I was walking to my pre-calculus class, when someone grabbed me and pulled my into an empty room, at first I was scared, then when I saw it was Bobby, I felt confused but excited, and then he kissed me. See, I should let you know that before I had never had a first kiss or a boyfriend. But when he kissed me it felt like a thousand little pieces were coming together and completing my life, it wasn’t like sloppy tough kissing, it was slow passionate kissing. Then we stopped and I just looked at him for a while, and asked what that was for. he said... and I will never forget what he said. "Kate, I know this might be coming out of the blue, but I have been watched you with the little kids and I have seen you talk to people, you have more compassion in you then most of the girls at this school, you are kind and giving and I want to be good enough to be with you, oh and I think you are one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen in my life." So, Bobby, I don’t know if you will ever read this but I wanted to thank you for the best first kiss I could ever imagine.
