The Bonfire Rally

First Touch

By J. S. WadePublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Wild flames danced with the unexpected frigid night sky in an alluring dance. Teenage rhythmic cheers of anticipated victory reverberated around the encircled bonfire. April, my redheaded crush, backed into me, close. In adolescent innocence, I rested my chin on her peach-scented hair.

Our molded body heat pulsed, sensually unified, as one. Tempestuous hormones and pheromones toyed at the edges of our animated insanity, swaying, wanting, pressing tighter.

Her glacial hands pulled my hips snugly and snaked the weapons deep into my ripped-out blue jeans pockets.

Jolted, instantly breathless, my fantasies dissipated into the smoky sky, gone.

I was commando.

    Randy is so bad. I thought it was real for a sec. Hope it worked out in the end. Naughty, naughty.

  • I have no words!!! But what a fantasy terror. Well written.

  • Ah, Scott, where do you get off...? (Sorry, I just had to go there. At least I didn't ask when. The obvious answer being, not in April. Ugh. That's bad.)

    I guess he can skip the cold shower, because 'Glacial hands' will do it every time...😅 Unless you're into that kind of thing 🤨. Great story, Scott.

    That April knew what she was doing! Great read.

    I love the way you capture these feelings: the carefree recklessness and awkward embarrassment of adolescence. Each word feels deliberate and measured. This was so wonderful to read!
