DownloadThe War And Treaty (Stealing A Kiss) OC: …stopped kissing. :22
“‘Stealing A Kiss’ is about the very first time I had a chance to plant one on Tanya, and I just clammed up and didn’t do it. It’s the only regret I’ve ever had in our relationship. (TANYA: “Well, you made up for it.”) It’s not going for it the first time, but the next time I went for it, (TANYA: “You went for it.”) we kissed and never stopped kissing.”
