i first kissed her on monday night. and for a second i forgot all about paris. i walked over to her place to watch a movie real late at night. i risked life and limb walking down dark streets all by myself. i found out that it was worth it though, cuz she came out on the porch to greet me even before i got there.
with no shoes on.
she had class in the morning and i had class in the late morning so we agreed that it was best for me to go home. no, she didnt want to get lunch after class. no, she didnt want to go to the new club in town on thursday night cuz this friday is the good kind that only comes once a year and theres no classes. things were not looking good and it seemed that mini mo might be singing the blues in the rain that night.
have you seen this movie before?
nope sure havent.
what? dont lie. everyones seen this movie.
im not lying. is that mischa barton?
yeah it is. shes like really young in this.
shes still really young.
not this young. do you watch the oc?
pause.
dont tell anyone.
hey, everyones got their guilty pleasure.
i had been playing with her hair all night. she was laying across the couch with her head in my lap, the only thing dividing us being an worn pillow. the chastity pillow, i called it.
she laughed. her hair smelled really good. i think i got some of it on my fingers.
after the movie was over she looked at the clock. then i looked at the clock and we both laughed.
i guess you sleeping here tonight.
i guess i am.
cuz i wouldnt want you to get raped or anything walking back this late.
good call.
we layed in her bed and talked. she told me about her ex boyfriends and how both of them hit her. she cheated on both of them to get them back. she told me about how her dad got layed off and now lives in boston to work and how he only gets to come home once a month. she told me about how when she met me at that party over the summer and asked me for a black and mild that she was really drunk and doesnt usually smoke.
i said thats surprising, because youre body usually does.
it was 530am. she smiled. we would have kissed some more and talked some more but it was really getting late and she really had class in a few hours.
and for a moment, the next morning, walking early on that crisp first day of spring, cool and dry with a sprig of breeze, for the first time in a long time, the shame wasnt so bad.
