They say you're more likely to remember bad memories over good ones. Maybe because they hurt more. Or maybe it's cause we spend time thinking about how it could have been different.
My reason was that it was an unexpected blow. It's funny how the happiest of times can change in the blink of an eye.

*****************************
Monday morning

"SAID HER NAME WAS GEORGIA ROSE, AND HER DADDY WAS A DENTIST!"

This was my wonderful awakening to the beginning of another shitty day. Tori, my best friend/roommate decides this is the best wake up call for me in the morning. There's a couple of phrases I could use to describe Tori. A pain in the ass, punk rock, a little bitch, but one suits her perfectly, 1D AF! You can mess with a lot of things but don't you dare mess with her Niall. I swear she will drag you. You have been warned....

Now while she may not look like much with her thin figure and youthful face but, girl can throw a punch. The tattoo of a heart on her middle finger showing as she waved her hand all over the place. The other half is on mine. Her ombred brown hair swings side to side as she sings along to the lyrics. I slowly find myself joining in.

After jamming out for a few minutes I see Tori start to approach me slowly chewing on her lip ring, something she always does when she's nervous.

"Hey Neveah", she says quietly drawing out the 'h' .

"Hey Tori",I reply in the same manner.

" Remember that promise you made me about two months ago".

"Hmm no I can't recall. Oh well". I teased with a smirk.

"No but seriously." I could see now that she meant business. Tori is never serious.

"Yes I do remember. Why?"

"Because guess what baby?", she exclaimed, shoving a poster in my face. " You better start saving because tickets cost $200".

I rolled my eyes, taking a deep breath for good measure. I had promised to take Tori to any concert she wanted, in order to keep her from telling the cute guy next door I like him.

" You're kidding me right? ", I
asked my delirious friend, checking for any signs of lunacy or insanity. Where the hell does she think I could come up with this money? I mean I could if I wanted too but, I'm not that big of a fan.

" Nope. Last time I checked the golden rule of our friendship agreement is to always keep a promise", Tori says matter of factly.

"We were five", I whine in defense but, she got me. If there's one thing I hate doing, it's not keeping my promises. I remember when I was a kid and, my parents were getting a divorce, my dad would always cancel or not bother to show up for his day with me. I remember the feeling of sadness and asking myself what I had done wrong. So Tori and I made the friendship agreement, which were mostly jokes but, the number one rule is 'Always keep your promises'.

I have a problem sometimes where my brain and my mouth don't connect and I blurt out the first thing I think of. This is exactly what happened next, as I found myself saying,

"Okay".
