I was at my first high school dance. I felt the trickle and raced to the bathroom. I screamed several times in that stall, but nobody seemed to think there was anything wrong or they just ignored me. Eventually, I texted my friend who brought me a tampon.
I figured out how to get it in and went back to the dance. Then, the boy I had a crush on asked me to dance. He kissed me. So yes, I had my first period, first kiss, and first slow dance all in the same day!
