ANDY SAT IN HIS BED, SCROLLING on instagram boredly. he was home alone, and usually he would invite some of his friends over but he just felt like being alone.
his xbox sat in his room, and gosh would his mom be shocked that he wasn't yelling and playing on it right then.
and as andy thought this his mom texted him, "thought you would like these andy." it read, and there were 4 photos and 9 videos attached.
andy opened the message, wanting to fully see it. it was photos and videos of little andy and sylvanie, back when she wasn't annoyed by him.
andy clicked at the first video that was there, and it took place in sylvanie's backyard, back when there was a little kiddie slide going into her pool.
"i'm scared!" sylvanie said in her little voice as she climbed down the slide's stairs.
andy's mom zoomed in, the voices of his other mom in the background, as well as sylvanie's parents.
younger andy got out the pool, going over to sylvanie as he dripped water.
"it's okay, you don't have to go." andy said. "but so did sissy, and cousins." sylvanie said.
"okay..uh i do with you." andy said holding sylvanie hand.
"you not scared?" sylvanie said her little stomach poking out her flared two piece. (nayah: if you didn't have one of these r u okay?)
"no, and you're with me!" andy said smiling, and sylvanie smiled back.
they both climbed up the stairs, andy sitting on the slide as he held sylvanie's hand as she sat behind him.
"are you ready?" andy said looking behind him. sylvanie nodded, and then they both slid down as sylvanie yelled.
they landed in the pool, both popping up. "we did it!" sylvanie did and andy and her laughed.
andy continued to look at the videos, laughing and getting sad at some of them.
he forgot how close sulvanie and him used to be, they were friends all the way back in pre-k and up until the summer before 6th grade where they slowly drifted apart.
as andy finished looking at what he thought was the last video his mom sent him a photo.
he looked at it, sitting up more in his bed. as andy remembered the moment where the photo took place he got extremely sad, thinking back all those years ago.
FLASHBACK
10 year old andy and sylvanie sat on sylvanie's couch, her house all over the place as everyone had left after her birthday party.
"you heard kym talking bad about me right? at my own birthday party." sylvanie said sadly.
"they're jealous sylvie." andy said. "jealous about what!" she said.
"come on, you have a massive house, you have a party every year, you're best friends with the most popular guy in school, you've met celebrities through gymnastics, and your smart. you are the girl everyone dreams to be right now." andy said.
"okay but still, they should've been glad they were even invited.." sylvanie said quietly.
"you're right. you're always going to have haters sylv. people you have to knock you down, but you have to keep your head up. that's what my mom always tells me." andy said.
"i don't know if i can do that forever andy." sylvanie shook her head.
"hmm...pinky promise me you will, or at least try to." andy said holding up his pinky.
"don't you think we're a bit old for pinky promises now?" sylvanie asked.
"what? no!" andy said and they both chuckled.
"okay fine, but i'll only pinky promise if you pinky promise to be with me forever and ever." sylvanie said.
"of course, i pinky swear." andy said as his pinky latched with sylvanie's. "and i pinky swear." sylvanie said, and they both smiled.
PRESENT
andy sighed as his thought finished, a single tear falling down his face.
"i guess we both broke those promises huh?" he whispered to himself, another tear falling.
he stared at the photo again, andy and sylvanie sitting with their pinkies latched as they smiled at the camera.
he instinctively went to his phone app, scrolling to find sylvanie's contact, which hadn't changed since the last time they talked.
it was a photo of her in 5th grade with her tongue out as she posed, and her name was still "sylvie sylv 💞🌟🤪" back when everyone put a million emojies next to everything.
andy clicked on the contact, his finger hovering over the call button.
he hesitated to press it, leaving the app and going to snapchat.
sylvanie's story was the first that popped up, and andy clicked it.
it was video of her and aaron laying down in her bed, and it flashed to them watching victorious on her tv.
"oh.." andy quietly said, wiping his fallen tears. he closed out the phone app tab, seeing sylvanie was obviously busy.
it's not that he hated aaron and sylvanie together, he was happy for his best friend and his....anyway, but he wished it was him.
why else would he had punched aaron in the nose when he said it in front of everyone in the game?
andy knew aaron was telling the truth, but he didn't want to admit it to him, or to himself.
but he couldn't ignore it now, every laugh, every hug, ever hand hold, everything. andy just couldn't wish it was himself in aaron's place.
except, unfortunately for him it never would be, and it made him want to scream.
