Sitting in the car after a terrible movie and a friendzone We find ourselves hugging it out like broskis. Your arms tight like rubber bands cutting into my skin, I tell you how much I hate you for leading me on But your arms become paralyzed around me And I like it so I ask This really dumb question: “I’m gonna ask a really dumb question; and if the answer’s no I’ll shut up and never mention it again.” “Fire away.” “Can I try? Just once, so I know what it’s like?” “Try what?” “You know what.” —you pause and grin in realization that you’ve still got me even though it’s I who have got you— “Sure, go ahead,” you say as I turn bright gold inside so I hold your face gently and Caress those golden curls And oh my gosh that is your mouth mmm yum ok lets try and how those fireworks !BOOM!CRACKLE!POP! “Just once,” I said. But I kissed you three times And I ******* meant it You said “never done it like that before” I said “I do” I said “thank you” You said “bye” and shut the door which you then left unlocked I drove 100 yards. Shouted woo hoo. Got sad. Drank. Slept. Woke. And oh god the pain—

End of a First and Last Date
