Life and Death

Chapter 1

It was raining. Of all the days, the clouds decided to cry on this one. What am I going to do now? My friend, Alex, is supposed to go with me to the park to skateboard. Well, was. We can't really do that now that it's pouring outside.

Honestly, I don't even know why they picked me out of all people to be their best friend. Alex was the first real friend I ever made in my new school. I was an ambivert leaning into the introvert side when we first met. So, you could say that Alex adopted me with their extrovertedness. Maybe that's why we became such great friends. We were complete opposites that each had what the other was lacking.

Alex is awesome. To me, they are the Holy Grail of friends. They are hot, cool, loyal, funny, kind, helpful...the list could go on and on. Let's not forget that almost anyone could fall for them. I didn't really mind that Alex was the cool friend though; being in their shadow was a minor inconvenience for me. I was just happy that they even considered me as their friend.

Because of this I was always the "other friend" or "friend of Alex". Not really acknowledged, just...there. I liked it that way though. At least it means I have a smaller chance of embarrassing myself or being embarrassed.

UUUUUUUUGH. Remember when I said that Alex was NEAR perfect. Yeah, this is one of their huge flaws. They always think that I need to get out of my shell and meet more people. I always say that I would rather have one amazing friend than eight fake friends, but no matter how much I say it to them, I always find myself in a situation with them introducing me to different people.

But whatever, it's a small inconvenience. I wouldn't give up our friendship over something as trivial as that. 

I still whish we were able to go out today.

Well at least  they said we'll go out in a few days. Didn't Alex say that they would take me out to the arcade and then for ice-cream? I can't remember, but I know that it's going to be awesome. By the way what was the occasion again? I can't seem to remember...

MY BIRTHDAY! ALEX WAS TALKING ABOUT TAKING ME OUT ON MY BIRTHDAY!

When is it again? 

Today's the 18th of October? That means that...

HOLY SHIT!!

"I'm gonna be eighteen in three days."
