Chapter 14

After school, at the end of the second week of school, Tif told me that everyone was meeting at the mall after practice and invited me to join the group. I called Momma and she let me go.

Everyone included not only the girls in the cheering squad but the boys on the football team as well. Which included Mike.

He smiled at me. “I haven’t seen you around much.” He said.

“I have been very busy.”

“You don’t even call.” I could not tell if he was truly hurt or not.

“I am sorry. I thought you should call me.”

He smiled more broadly and laughed softly. “I been busy.” He pulled me close and put his arms around me. “Am I still your guy?”

I thought about it for a moment. “We don’t see each other at school. I do not see how you could be my guy.”

He kissed me softly, just a light pressing of our lips. “Do you want me to be your guy?”

My heart raced for no reason. “Yes.” I said softly.

He took my hand. “Come on. I want to show you something.”

He led me away from the group to a service hallway nearby.

“What did you want to show me here?” I asked him.

“This.” He said as he pushed me against the wall and our lips touched again.

I wanted to push him away. I knew it was wrong to let him kiss me in public like this. When his tongue gently stroked my lips, I knew I must part them and let him taste my mouth.

“Hey.” He whispered. “Kiss back.” His lips and tongue returned to my mouth and I began to explore his mouth as well. He began to rub his body against mine and I could feel a growing hardness between his legs. His hand, which had been on the wall behind me began to stroke my sides, moving ever closer to my breasts and my now erect nipples.

When he slipped his hand between us and squeezed my breasts roughly, I gasped. It was as if an electric bolt passed through me and I knew I would do something terribly wrong if he did it again. I pushed him away then.

“What’s wrong?”

“Don’t touch me.” I panted. “Please.”

“I thought you were into it. I thought you liked it when I kissed you.”

“I do. But ... your hands...”

“Oh, what, are you not ready for that?” he scoffed.

“Yes. Yes. I am not ready.” He frowned and I felt badly for him. “I’m sorry. I do like to kiss you. But I am not ready for more.”

He sighed and shrugged. “Ok. Ok. No touching today.” He tenderly placed his hands on my shoulders. “Is this ok?” He asked between heated kisses.

“¡Si, Mike, ¡si.” I whispered back. “And I will put my arms here.” I wrapped my arms around his back and pulled him even closer to me. I felt exhilarated and yet frightened, as if kissing him would get me into trouble but I wanted the trouble to come.

After some time, we pulled apart from each other and rejoined the others. There was some teasing as they knew where we had been and why but others in the group were teased no less and for the same reason.
