A chapter in the book Tiny Terrors
One Final Kiss
by Dean Kuch
Jenny and her friend Samantha sauntered up to the kissing booth. Jenny had always desired to kiss him, and here was he was.
A typical teenager, Jenny was curious. She'd read so much about his breathtaking kisses in literature, she simply had to know.
"Jen, you really want to do this? I mean, he's..."
"Oh, yes," Jenny sighed.
After plunking down her two quarters, she kissed him.
A carny working the ring toss yelled across the litter-strewn mid-way.
"Hey, Grimm — how's biz?"
Grinning over the corpse of yet another curiosity seeker came the whispered reply,
"...Dead."
