Eli goes in for a kiss

Kyle thought that Eli was about to ask for his arm back, and turned his head towards Eli, but was taken entirely by surprise when Eli went in for a kiss. He was so surprised that he froze, while his brain tried to make sense of what was happening. There were a lot of feelings and emotions running through his mind.

It was the quiet gasping and giggling from his right that finally snapped him out of his reverie. Eli pulled away and smiled as he blushed furiously, sinking into his seat and hoping that he'd be swallowed into it.

...No such luck.

After the movie ended, Kyle immediately broke off from the group and rushed towards the restrooms, with Melissa and Darla quickly following behind as he overheard Eli mentioning to Liam that "Kylie is a great kisser." He really hoped that Eli wouldn't say anything to Sam, given that he was too preoccupied playing tonsil hockey with Kim to notice anything going on in the movie, let alone anything going on several seats away.

"O M G, girl!" Melissa exclaimed as she stepped into the restroom, finding Kyle hunched over the sink. "What was it like?"

"What was what like?" Kyle asked.

"Kissing Eli, duh! I didn't even realize, though after the sunscreen, I had theories." Melissa replied.

"He's not bad." Darla said, and before Kyle could even register his surprise, added "Tried it out a few summers ago, but we didn't work."

"I just... I don't know." Kyle muttered.

"Oh my god, Kylie." Melissa gasped.

"What?" Kyle asked, quickly inspecting himself to ensure that his groin covering hadn't come loose.

"That was your first kiss, wasn't it?" Darla asked. "You can tell us, don't be ashamed."

"It..." Kyle started.

Kyle had kissed a few girls, but that was definitely his first kiss with another boy, and unfortunately, his brain wasn't firing on all cylinders, given the stress he was under.

"I guess it was." Kyle muttered.

"At least it was someone you know." Melissa said. "I think my first kiss was at a party, spin the bottle or something, and they meant so little that I can't remember who it was."

"And you'll have practice for your date." Darla added.

"Oh god..." Kyle had forgotten about that.

Kyle splashed some cold water on his face as Kim pushed the door open and audibly scoffed as she saw the trio standing around.

"You gonna be all day? We're waiting!" she spat, before turning around and leaving.

"God, I hate her..." Kyle sighed.

Melissa and Darla giggled in agreement as the trio left to rejoin the group.
