Yours, Always

Chapter Nine

Dear Diary,

Yay I'm 16! Finally old enough to do..... What exactly – buy drugs?! The ones from the chemist I mean.

Oh yeah and have sex.

Not likely to forget that one when it's all James rabbits on about these days.

I've been talking to George a lot because for some reason I really miss Bobby. I always think about him around this time of year but this year feels different.

I guess I wonder what it would have been like turning 16 with Bobby around.

I miss not having my best friend around, I've never been good at having that instant connection. Even with James I have to work at it all the time and he never seems to know what I'm thinking.

Maybe me and him are a mistake?

I don't know; guess I'm just sad today.
