10 years ago;
"i am going to win!" I screamed, laughing.
"no i am!" She answered, giggling.
Laura and I were driving our new cycles up the little mountain to our special place.
We made a bet that who's the last one arriving has to pay for a big portion ice cream.
Till now i was the first one but somehow Laura managed it to overtake me.
She was faster than me and we were almost there.
"HAH!" She laughed as she stopped driving.
Exhausted, i stopped as well. "You cheated!" I got off of my bike and laid it in the grass.
She did the same and then smiled, "Youre a bad loser, you loser." She took our boxes and gave her mine.
"I guess i want an strawberry ice. What do you say?" She joked. Laura was literally amused that she won against me.
"I hate you." I said and took my box, looked at it.
She just came to me and kissed my cheek, "we both know that you love me." She giggled.
I widened my eyes and wished the kiss away, "ewww, love is something for old people! we are only 9 years old!"
I didnt know why but it caused Laura to giggle just more, "youre so immature, Rossy. Come on now, We just have 3 hours left." She started walking trough the high grass and i followed her after i fetched the shovels.
We were here around lots of trees and the grass seemed to has been mooned the last time 2 years ago. But when you kept walking a fee minutes, you arrived at a beautiful little place at a lake.
We both sat down and looked at each other. "So, the time has come huh." Laura said, quietly.
I nodded, lightly. "Can you remember when we met each other? You played with my toys."
She laughed, "yeah and you punched me for it." I smiled again.
"Im sorry." I laughed and gave her one of the shovels.
"Ross, you're my best friend." She said, knowing this would be our last day together for a very long time.
"And you're mine too, Laura." I was sad actually. She really was my best friend.
"And we'll always be friends forever. Wont we?"
"Yeah, forever."
And with that we took our friendship necklaces and put them in our boxes, then we began burying our boxes in the ground.
After it we stood up and looked at our work, it was quiet for a while before Laura suddenly spoke up again.
"Hey, i have an idea."
I turned to her, "What idea?"
"What about when we both promise each other to come back in exactly ten years to exactly this place? We could play together again and you could buy me my icecream and we could be best friends again."
I smiled big, "thats a good idea! im in!" We made a pinky promise to seal it.
well, after that we drove home. Southport has become too little for our families, so we had to move. Both of our families moved away. But not in the same direction.
That was it, it lost my best friend. 10 years was a very long time, i hoped everything went well for her.
"Darlin, forever is a long, long time, and time has a way of changing things." My mom told me as i sat sad on our kitchen table.
