He and I talked (we'd met at school) while just about everyone else got busy. It was one of THOSE parties. He asked me if I'd ever been to a make-out party. Maybe my instant blush gave it away (damn my Swedish ancestors!). He then asked if I'd ever kissed anyone. More blushing. He chuckled, not unkindly, and said, "Look, it seems like…
