It all started out around football season in 7th grade. I was on the flag football team but I didn’t get to play because I broke my thumb. I just went to the practices to watch. Well one of my friends, Tiffany, came by and this tall kid with black spiky hair was with her. She introduced me to him and he had the cutest smile too. He had the most perfect tan skin tone, beautiful dark brown eyes, semi-deep voice, and you could tell he was PURE Puerto Rican! Oh there I go daydreaming about him again.. Anyways, he smiled directly at me and we locked eyes for a few seconds. He stood next to me, put his right arm around my shoulders, looked down at me and said “Hey I’m Chris. You wanna dance? C’mon let’s dance.” Then he did something that looked like a short two-step dance, i gave him a weird look, he laughed and walked away. I immediately fell in love at that second. I began wondering what my life would be like if we went out. He stopped coming to our practices but he found me online and we started talking as “friends”. A month went by and he began flirting with me online. Another month went by and that’s when he asked me out. I said “Yes” but I didn’t make it seem like I was desperate or anything. Friday, he came to my school the next as soon as the bell rang to go home. I was very nervous because It was only our 2nd day of going out. I gave him a hug, then told him that I had rehearsal. (I was in a play at the time) we said good-bye and walked separate ways. He invited me to the movies over the weekend with a bunch of friends. I told my step mom that I was going out with Chris and asked permission to go to the movies. She told me that she was going to talk with my dad which scared the hell out out of me. My real mom pulled up into the driveway to pick me up. It was my weekend with my mom. On Saturday night I asked my mom if I could go to the movies on Sunday with Chris. She told me that it was up to my father. (She always says that!!!) My dad said “No”, of course.. A few days later my dad and I had “The Talk” and he said that we could consider ourselves boyfriend and girlfriend. Two days later he found out that I had a D in science and he flipped out and told me that I wasn’t allowed to have a boyfriend. It was too late because we were already going out and I’m not going to break up with him just for THAT!
I ignored my dad and continued to date him. After a month and a half of dating, I was walking around school with a few of my friends. Then one of Chris’s friends saw me and told me that Chris was at the walker’s gate and he wanted to see me. ALL of my friends were like “Oh My God! Come on let’s go! Fix your hair! Hurry up!” They rushed me over to the gate and it was pretty crowded. I saw him on the other side of the gate and wondered how I would get to him. A teacher opened the gate and a whole bunch of kids came pouring out. One of my friends pushed me through all of them until Chris was right in front of me. We hugged and he introduced me to his older brother. Behind Chris I saw Tiffany and my other friend Emily with a camera ready to take a picture. I signaled for them to leave and they went behind the gate to where I can’t see them. I looked at Chris again and he was telling his friends to go away to and that he’ll catch up with them later. We locked eyes and I guess he panicked because he was like “Okay well bye!!”. I said bye and I went to give him another hug. I had my arms wrapped around his waist and he had his arms around my shoulders. He hugged me back and while hugging me, he gave me my first kiss. Of course I kissed him back, I didn’t stay frozen. His lips were so soft. I was surprised because my heart wasn’t beating fast and I wasn’t nervous. I felt completely comfortable and safe in his arms. We finally let go and left. I saw Tiffany and Emily jump out from behind the gate and they were laughing. I don’t know what they were laughing about but I didn’t really care. Chris was the only thing on my mind. He’s my First True Love and forever I will keep that kiss. I love you Chris!!
