Yiska sees Benny
walking by
the tuck shop
in the corridor
she is with her friend
on their way
to Geography
with Mr P
wait
she says
I must talk
with Benny
and follows Benny
a few paces
then says
Benny
he turns
and sees her
where are you going?
she asks
science
he says
some nonsense
about gravity
and falling bodies
or such
wish our bodies
could fall
somewhere together
she says smiling
me too
he says
Yiska's friend
stood a few paces back
arms folded
a bored expression
on her face
what about lunch recess
can we meet?
she asks
sure why not
he replies
she lingers
feeling a kiss
coming on
her body bubbling
where abouts?
she asks
meet by
the maths block
quieter there
at lunch time
she nods
senses he might
go soon
and grabs
his arm
and pulls him
towards her
and kisses him
on the lips
Benny holds her briefly
feels her waist
then they part
the friend over the way
looks down
at the floor
see you later
she says
he nods
and walks off
in a hurry
to his next class
she watches him go
her body alive
her nerves aglow.
