Occ: Sorry about the delay, guys. You wouldn't believe the way my life has been going the past week! ACK!

~KYLE~

Tess and I chat for a while, sitting on that bench and I'm content to just sit here with her. Then I feel a vibrating in my pocket and realize that my phone has been ringing. It stops before I can pick up and I notice it was Alex calling. I hit redial to call him back and wink at Tess. She certainly seems to have cooled off from whatever had her upset last night. Maybe it was just nerves or something. Whatever it was she doesn't offer an explanation or mention it and I, being the gentleman that I am, don't bring it up.

~LIZ~

He really is starting to panic and I feel sorry for him. "Ok, let's see, Maria or Tess," I mumble, trying to think of something. The first thing that comes to mind is kind of a funny story and I nod as I smile and begin. "Ok, when Maria and I were young, maybe around 10 or 11, we started noticing boys and just started to really develop crushes on them. Well, there was this one boy in our class that everyone seemed to like, he already had that charm thing going for him and he could make people laugh and was that class clown that even the teachers couldn't be mad at. Anyway, his name was Todd and he was every girl's first crush. Well, Maria was the lucky girl he picked to be his girlfriend and she was so excited. I was jealous but also happy for her. She was pretty proud of herself and everything for about a week, but then she spent the night one weekend, I think it was a Friday, and she told me that she was afraid of something. When I asked her what it was, she admitted that she was afraid he would try to kiss her and she wouldn't know how.

"I told her that it looked pretty easy on TV and she said she didn't see how they kept from bumping noses or foreheads. I don't remember who suggested it but we finally decided to practice on each other. It was pretty weird and we laughed about it and couldn't really practice because we couldn't stop laughing. I think we might have gotten two kisses in before we gave up and practiced on our hands. Well, the next school day, Maria came over after school to play and she told me that she had dumped Todd. I was surprised and asked her why. She laughed and said that she couldn't go out with anyone who couldn't kiss her better than I could." I laugh at the memory and finish by telling him, "She said Todd kept hitting her teeth or her nose or her head and she finally told him to try with someone else. Now whenever someone asks who our first kiss was we always joke and say each other. You wouldn't believe the responses we get from it."

I watch Max to see if my story is helping and he does look a little less green and pale. I'm also curious to see what his reaction will be to it. Most guys get turned on by the mental picture of me and Maria making out...not that it was anywhere close to that but that's what they picture anyway.

Alex

Right the second after I suggested that Iz tries calling Liz, my cell phone starts vibrating. Quickly fishing it out of my pocket, I glance at the caller ID.

"Hold that thought, Kyle's calling me back." I tell Isabel before answering the phone. "Hey Kyle, thanks for calling me back. Isabel and I, we'd like to know where you and Tess are because so far we couldn't find you anywhere."

~KYLE~

I grin at Alex's comment. "We haven't moved from that bench where you guys spotted Tess a while ago. We've just been chatting here." I glance around and see Isabel and Alex through the crowd of people and I wave my hand up high, even though they aren't looking this way. "Turn around, Whitman," I tell him, grinning at Tess. "Hungry?" I mouth at her.

Alex

"We haven't moved from that bench where you guys spotted Tess a while ago. We've just been chatting here."

"Seriously?" I ask surprised. How could we have missed them then? Sure, there were a few people leaving the tunnel of fear but ... weird.

"Turn around, Whitman,"

Being the good boy that I am, I just do that and really, I can spot Kyle waving at me. Okay, I only see a hand waving (Kyle ain't the tallest) and with a bit looking around people I indeed spot him and Tess sitting on the bench.

Grinning, I tell Kyle bye before putting my phone away. Smiling at Iz, I grab her shoulders and gently turn her around so that she's facing in the direction where K&T are. "This way, Ma'am."

Occ: Sorry, everyone but my internet connection and cable have been acting up because some bozo thought they would try to get free cable by cutting or disconnecting all the wires on our apartment building in the cable box outside. Sigh. Idiots.

~KYLE~

I freeze with Tess's words, getting a surprising but not unwelcome image of her underneath me in bed, completely naked and her face a picture of wanting as I try to please her. Man, it's hot out here! I feel my face heat up and junior below is starting to stretch. Down boy!

She takes my hand and I stand up in front of her. She's just so damn cute! And her giggle is endearing, not annoying like a high school girl. I can't seem to help myself, I lean in and capture her lips with mine, surprising both of us. I feel her stiffen but wrap my arms loosely around her, hoping that she'll give in and let herself feel.

~~~~~MAX~~~~~
I can't help but smile at the sweet story. I'll admit... a while back I may have been seriously turned on by that story... ok so not that long ago. But now its like... they were eleven. Its not as if they were having full blown sex on her parents bed as hot adulty girls. Now that would be a turn on.

But her story just shouts innocence and sweetness.

"That's a nice story" I reply. "It's kinda cool your first kiss is with someone you still care about."

Of course that hits me like a fist to my stomach but hey....what can you do. She's outta my life now. Why should I care.

~LIZ~

I frown in concern at his words. He looks a little regretful and I have to wonder..."Who was your first kiss with?" I ask quietly. I'm not sure if he wants to talk about this. Maybe it was a bad experience. If so, I suppose I could share my first kiss with a guy. It wasn't nearly so great a story but it usually gets a laugh. "You don't have to share if you don't want to," I add, seeing that he's a bit uncomfortable. I'm not sure if it's still our predicament or he's embarrassed by his story or what. I hope we get off this damn ferris wheel sometime soon. I did want to have some real fun while we were at the carnival. I put a lot of hard work into this thing and I wanted to enjoy some of it.

~~~~~MAX~~~~~
I bite my lip and mutter, "Her name was Sophie... she was... a great girl..." I sigh before adding. "There was just one problem..."

I look up at her and say, "You remember the best friend I told you about...the one who slept with Jane... yeh... she kissed me to get closer to him."

I look down at my hands and play with my fingers. "Guess he was some sort of stud... but he told me that he would never go out with her after what she did to me...."

I play with my fingers faster. "Well... thats what he said..." I swallow before saying, "I didn't think anything more of it... until the day I went to punch his lights out after I found out about her and Jane. And he told me he had seen her for a year behind my back after that."

I sigh and mutter, "Sorry... I guess I don't have the best luck with girls."

OOC-This is short.Trude can ya do the rest please? I'd appreciate it if you could lead them to K&T.I wil post on the 4th.


Isabel

"This way Ma'am." Alex says and turns me around and I immediately spot Kyle and Tess through a parting in the crowd.

I grin in relief and wave at them.

"Finally!" I exclaim "I thought we were never going to find any of them in this melee. Lead the way boyfriend and quickly, before we lose them again."

Alex

"I thought we were never going to find any of them in this melee. Lead the way boyfriend and quickly, before we lose them again."

I chuckle slightly and then grin goofily because Iz called me 'boyfriend'. "Aye aye captain. But I do hope that the two won't try to hide from us again." I still can't believe that Iz and I didn't spot them earlier, we were not that distracted after all.

"Hey you two!" I call out to them when we reach them. "Tess, nice to see you again."
