I want to kiss my friend and im a 14 year old boy?

well a while back i have started to have strong feelings to try to kiss a friend and i have a friend whose about a month older than me, and me and him are pretty good friends. i like him a lot as a friend but i want to (for a lack of a better term) get a little closer. i just want to kiss him that's all. I'm single right now and there is a girl who i really like, but she has no idea. we hang out. i was on a bus ride home with him after traveling two hours to a lax game and we were near each other almost the whole way. there were two busses. one was ful. i was on the extra bus with him and one other guy. me and him talked for a while. i really just want to see how it feels. and he's kinda cute. i dont think id ever go out with a guy but i want to experiment. i remember i was talking with him once and i think, if i can recall this clearly, he really didnt like the idea of any guy doing stuff. but he's a very adventurous person in a sense. he might try it. he is also 14. i want to do this, so i want to know how i can, and i want to know how to ask him. please no mean amswers. im very sensitive about this and i need help. just real answers. also, nobody would ever know if we did it. also might i add, that i would never be gay. i love girls. i think about them so much. but i just want to experiment. and i know about all that going through changes stuff. i want to know how to approach it and all the other stuff.
