Friends ? - Angelina Vancini 7th Grade
It was November 16th 2023 when my best friend was out sick . He was special to me , i don ’ t know why though .
Every time i see him , my stomach aches . It ’ s not like i like him though ….? Anyway , we knew each other from the beginning of 7th grade . Me and him where very close to each other , at band , 1st period , we would laugh together for the stupidest reasons and make each other smile . I would accidentally get him in trouble for making him laugh and he would get mad at me , but it was just for fun . After a couple of days , we decided to sit together at lunch and talk and tell jokes . He made very weird and hilarious jokes that sometimes made me laugh . Sometimes I wish we could have hung out after school but I wasn ’ t allowed to due to my father always being busy with work and my stepmother being busy with my siblings . My friends would always make jokes about me “ liking ” my best friend but i would always deny it . Sometimes when I got home , I chatted with him on email or texts . After a while , I think I gained a ….. crush on him . It sounds silly but I think I did . I asked my friends to not tell him , but stupid me should have known that they would tell him . So , after about a week , the rumor spread that I liked my best friend . And one day , he found out … he came to me at 1st period and said , I like you too . My heart dropped and I felt like the world had stopped spinning . So at lunch , I told my friends and they very happy for me and gave me tips , but it felt weird knowing that me and my best friend liked each other . So after a day , we started to date and took things slowly . But all a sudden , we had an argument and I broke up with him . It was a horrible day . But now all we do I sit at our original seats and don ’ t talk to each other at all and stay quiet . We are cool but we are not close like we once were … sometimes I wish we could go back and restart , but the past is the past . But now I ’ m just being me and not worrying about anything . Should I have just kept being friends with him ???
