First Kiss

It wasn't how she imagined it would be like. She thought it would be sweet, and something she'd want to remember forever. She thought it would happen during a date with her crush, at the perfect moment, as he dropped her off at home, just before her dad came outside to see what what going on.
Instead, she had been told she wasn't allowed to go out anywhere with a boy til she was eighteen. Then she'd snuck out her window and dragged Denny out back to her old play house in the backyard. He kissed her first, and she enjoyed it. Then a spider dropped on her shoulder, causing her to scream, and fall backwards, knocking into whatever noisy clanky thing her father kept in there. This woke everyone up, and set the dogs barking.
Denny helped her back out, brushing off any stray cobwebs, and a couple spiders before she saw them. Moments later, both her parents were standing outside, both glaring. Red-faced, she walked over to them, finding great interest in her slipper clad feet. After a slight argument, in which her father lost, no punishment was announced, and she was allowed on a date the next weekend.
Not her dream first kiss, but it was certainly different. And she wouldn't change it for the world.

NOTE:
And this is the last prompt I have from 2010.
