96a END FIRST KISS Part 2: DOMINO EFFECT

So here we stand—face to face, lip locked within an embrace more intimate than I'd ever imagined in my wildest dreams—Well in truth—during my wildest dreams I'm being chased down the street by an angry gorilla and though my mouth is wide open, no yell for help gets past the huge lump, which tightens my scared-to-death throat—just like, right now!  And each time that gorilla closes in, narrowing the gap, between life and death, I choke up even more—just like, right now—until Joseph's arms begin to relax their hold, freeing my arms to fly up, as though all on their own, to beat my sweetheart soundly all about his head, thus shocking him as spontaneously as he'd shocked me—and as his head bobbles back and forth to free itself of my blows, the wool cap, warming his ears against this frosty winter's eve, flies off and lands in a puddle of melting snow, as muddied as two, out-of-control, utterly stunned, pre teen brains—neither of which has a clue of the fact that one autonomic reaction leads to another—and so this scene leads this impassioned teacher to suggest that:
