Justin's POV

"Man, I've been cracking my head trying to remember that neighbor chick." I said as I closed the fridge. "She just looks so familiar but... I can't put my finger on how we know each other."

Chaz laughed and shook his head. "Are you serious?" Ryan asked while laughing. "Did Selena brainwash you?"

I stayed silent, still not realizing why this was such a big deal.

"Dude, we used to hang out together everyday. She used to go to school with us, you two were always together." He said. "For like, a decade." "If you don't remember her it's concerning."

I do have a memory of hanging out with a girl, but I just assumed it was Caitlin.

"It's only been like three years man. Go to a doctor or something." Chaz said.

Gigi's POV

"Come with me!" Caitlin whined as she sat on my bed. I was brushing my hair as I looked into the mirror.

"No thank you." I said.

"But, why not? We're just hanging out." She said.

"If you want to go so bad, go cait. You don't have to stay here for me." I told her.

She sighed and said "You two were best friends. What the hell happened!"

I scratched my head as I looked at her and squinted my eyes. "Do I know you?" I said in my deepest voice, mocking Justin and making her laugh.

What a jerk.

"Come on. Just for a little bit!" She kept insisting. I let out a really deep breath and said "Fine!" "Just stop whining."

She laughed and quickly got out of my bed. She dragged me down the stairs and forced me to go into that house from across the street, which it's front door was open.

"Hello friends." Caitlin said as she dragged me by the hand into the kitchen, where the guys were sitting down and having snacks.

"Well, well, well." Chaz said as he looked at me. I sarcastically smiled and stood there next to him. Chris turned to look at me as he chewed and squinted his eyes. "Do I know you?" He asked, making Chaz and Ryan laugh.

"Ha. Ha. Ha." Justin sarcastically laughed as he threw a water bottle at his face.

"Gigi, you know Justin?" Ryan introduced us. I looked at him and glared.

"Dude... cut it." Justin sighed. "I'm sorry." He said as he looked at me.

I rolled my eyes and looked the other way. This was already becoming an irritating experience. I can't wait to go home.

"Okay. Let's drop the jokes." Ryan said. "Why don't we... tell random stories. To jug the old man's memory." He pointed at Justin.

"I'm leaving." I said.

"Don't be dramatic!" Chaz yelled after me as I kept walking.

"Thanks a lot guys." I heard Caitlin say.

I didn't want to be here in the first place.

As time went by, I came into agreement that my friendship with Justin was at lost, he had his whole career beginning while we were like fifteen, which kept him extremely busy most of the time, and I had my family and personal issues.

I mean, it was obvious that we would drift apart, I just didn't think he'd completely erased me from his memory.

"Hey!" Justin said as he ran towards me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath to calm myself down.
