My life as an intuitive tutee

Nine out of ten girls have denied a kiss at least once in their lives. Sure, I made up that statistic but its bound to be true. I went through a phase where I was determined not to deny a kiss. I felt bad, if a guy was going to go out on a limb, put aside his pride in order to kiss me, why shouldn't I let him win? Well, this theory turned out to be a bit of a dud. Turns out, there are many men who aren't really forsaking their pride as much as they are just looking for some sweet blond action.
If you've ever seen the overdramatic teen sensation series the O.C, you'll see that this story could be an episode. After I had broke up with my boyfriend of a year and a half, I almost immediately made friends with this other gentleman. We had hung out a few times and hit it off quite swimmingly. One night, I had asked my ex-boyfriend to come over and help with my math homework. Well as he was helping/ doing my homework my phone starting ringing. It was Jay, the guy I'd been talking to. I ignored his phone calls and went back to my math problems. My phone kept ringing and my ex, was now wondering what was going on. So I ran into my bedroom to turn my phone off. Just then I heard a tapping at my window. I looked out and there was Jay. Meanwhile my newly exed boyfriend was doing my math homework, one room over. I picked up my phone ran into the bathroom and said, "I'm with my tutor, I'll call you later". I had just dodged a BIG bullet. My ex asked who it was and I shrugged it off. Still not sure who my feelings belonged to, I said goodnight the ex. We talked by the car like we always used to, and he kissed me goodnight. I went back inside my room, relieved. Only moments later, I heard more rocks hitting my window. Jay was outside. I flipped him the bird and ran downstairs. We met at the park across from my place. As we chatted on the playground bridge, he went for a hug. He did the hug and look at me maneuver, but I didn't really think he would try anything fresh. Well, we were talking in this hug and he went in for a kiss. Almost instinctively I turned my head. I didn't even plan it but I'd just instinctively dodged a moment. I was surprised by my own actions and began to laugh. Jay was staring at me in disbelief. I looked him in the eye and apologized. He then went in for another kiss and again without thinking, redirected to the cheek. At this point I was laughing hysterically, hug still in tact, I was both pointing and laughing in his face. Bewildered, Jay just stared at me. After a couple of minutes I apologized again and he walked off muttering something about how that'd never happened to him before. I wanted to say me neither but... I was still laughing. I can't really tell you why. Next week on the O.C, Jodi figures out what she wants.
