"You what?!" I yelled at her.

She sniffled and scratched her nose. "Yea I think we had sex last night."

"And you don't remember it?"

"No but im 95% sure we did."

"And so you don't remember the name of of this guy?"

"I don't even remember what he looks like."

I nodded my head and continued driving towards her house. I knew that she was in some serious trouble, I just didn't know how to tell her.

When we pulled up at her house, she hopped out of my car and ran inside to grab her things. A few minutes later, she came out empty handed and tears were streaming down her face.

"What's wrong?" I asked, rolling my window down.

She walked over to the car as she wiped her face. "I can't come over tonight."

"Oh. Well its okay I just wanted to make sure that you are gonna be okay tonight. Do you want to hang out this weekend?"

"Im gonna miss you too!" I tried my best to keep myself together and not cry even harder.

"Avery sweetie, come on and finish packing. We have a long trip ahead of us." A strange woman called out from her front porch. I just figured that it was her aunt.

"Okay" Avery replied. She looked at me and gave me one last hug. "I can still text you and we can meet up sometime."

I nodded my head and had to force myself to let her go. When I did, she turned around and walked back into her house. She turned around one last time and made a heart with her hands. "I love you Kelsey." She then shut the door behind her, and with that, my best friend was gone.....
