How to Fall in Love (GirlxGirl)

1

I watch the bottle spin in circles. What is only a few seconds feels like an eternity. It begins to slow down and the feeling in my stomach intensifies. The bottle stops. My heart drops as I look up to see it pointing directly at the one and only Vanessa Adams.

"It landed on you" The girl next to me quietly says pulling me out of my thoughts. Everyone is looking at me. I feel my palms start to get sweaty.

Vanessa stands up and begins walking toward the closet only a few feet away from the circle of drunk teenagers. I do the same.

Her thick, dark, curly hair compliments her bronze colored skin. I was always a bit jealous of her beauty.

One of the guys from the circle starts the seven minute timer on his phone and closes the closet door for us.

I turn around to face Vanessa. I am locked in a closet with the most popular girl in our entire school. The girl that any guy would die for. The girl that looked like a supermodel but was only a senior in high school.

"Your name is Sky right?" She asks.

"Yeah. How did you know?" I never had a conversation with her before and I wasn't exactly popular.

"I sat behind you in history last year." She replies with a slight smile.

"Oh yeah, that's right."

There were an awkward few seconds of silence as we just stood there and looked at each other.

"No need to be nervous. We don't actually have to kiss or anything." She could read my body language despite me trying to hide it.

"Oh, I uh, wasn't even thinking about that."

Vanessa took a step forward toward me, making the space between us smaller.

"But it is the whole point if the game." Again she takes a step toward me until there are only a few inches between us.

Without having control of my own body, my hands reach up and pull her face to mine. Her lips were soft and gentle. I felt Vanessa's hands wrap around my waist to pull my body closer to hers.

Her lips parted slightly, allowing my to tongue to slip inside. My hands then made their way to the back of her neck, playing with her hair. She smelled like coconut which made me smile as we kissed.

WAIT, WHAT AM I DOING!? IM KISSING VANESSA ADAMS! IM KISSING A GIRL!

I pull my head away from hers, but her grip on my waist tightens.

"What's wrong?" Vanessa asks.

Before I could respond the timer goes off from outside of the closet. Vanessa let go of my waist and took a few steps away from me. The closet door opens and the loud music floods my ears.

"Welcome back love birds." The same guy that locked us in says. "So what did you two do in there?"

"We talked." Vanessa quickly responds.

The guy looks at me and I nod to satisfy his suspicion.

"Alright, well feel free to join the circle again, or go and get a drink."

I think I've had enough kissing for one night so I head over to the kitchen for some shots. I make my way through the obstacle course of drunk high schoolers. I finally arrive at the table covered with bottles of beer and red solo cups. My eyes search for the tequila. When I find it, I pour the clear liquid into a shot glass.

I drink it all down and pour another. After about my fourth one my ears hear someone calling my name from behind. I spin around to see who it is. To my surprise I see the hottest guy at my school, Jason Edwards.
