Mary Moriarty. The first girl whose hand I held. I can't recall in as much detail as you do Denise. She was pretty though and I remember that. And she smiled at me as we walked slowly out of the room. A lot of faces watched us knowing that this was a 'rite of passage' that they too would do. I had seen her before a number of times but had never spoken to her. It was one of those 'adore at a distance' things. It was not usual for girls like that to talk to boys like me. She was in a different class. Way out of my league. I had seen her with her friends and she seemed always to command attention. She held herself just that bit differently than others did. She continued smiling and talked to me in a really kindly way and I was floating on a cloud. Smitten. Mary. Mary Moriarty. The first girl whose hand I held.

However, he wasn't "standing right in front" of me but behind me as he worked on my hair. I could see his image, along with my own, in the mirror right in front of us. Thanks again for commenting!
