"Unexpected friendships are the best ones."
Listen to "See you again" by Wiz Khalifa ft Charlie Puth.

                                                 ...................

I loved my school. Everything about it. The large playground,basketball court, and the tennis court. Living in Newyork, it got pretty hot in summers. The years old fruit trees provided shade and oranges.

Perfect hideout for a bunking spot.

It was my final exams. Unlike most students, I didn't like the idea of vacations. Hell, there wouldn't be any teachers to disobey. No juniors to terrify. Boring.

"Sarah Varsi, do you intend to give your English exam or not?" yelled sir Watson.
Not bothering to reply, I made my way towards the class reluctantly.

I sat down while Harry and James begged me to sit in between them and to "tilt" my exam paper whenever needed. I ignored them and opted for the last seat.

Done with my exam after half an hour, I stared at my best friend, Marie Robbins, who was scribbling furiously. I felt immense pain and anger then since she was leaving the school. It was maddening.

And on top of that she was trying so hard to ace her exams. I couldn't understand her.
Why even bother giving exams if you are leaving the school?
Not that I complained. I loved her presence.

She was a bit short, so my classfellows had nicknamed her shortie. Though I always told them off but she was cool with it. I was the nicknamed a gangster, not just by my classfellows but my juniors, seniors and my teachers too.

I directed my gaze at Sean who was unusually cranky and was arguing with sir Watson as always. He was leaving the school too. My class wouldn't feel the same next year. I sighed.
"You are coming over right?Don't forget your clothers."said Marie.
"Yeah" I replied.
We had to attend the annual dinner today and she had been wanting to get ready together. I had complied.

After school we met up at her house as planned. We both changed. She into her lovely purple dress with lace and frills. Me into my pink chiffon maxi. She did her makeup while I thought about how pretty she looked.
"Damn girl you look hot" I whistled.

We both laughed while she did my eyeliner then and put on a bit of blush on.
"You look amazing."she said as I inspected myself in the mirror.

My gangster image had been ruined completely and I looked shy and girlish. Two things that I hated. But I thanked her leaving the details out since she was leaving the school and could get emotional at any moment.

"Did you talk to your boyfriend?" She asked.
"Nope. " I said.

Nathan was my first ever boyfriend. He was handsome and I couldn't believe when we had stared dating. I still can't believe it. I smiled.

I presented her with a gift. It was a pearl neclace and earrings that I had bought for her. She looked ready to burst into tears then so I started to laugh hysterically.

I was a good actor. I held my stomach and rolled over as if I had heard a hilarious joke.
"Whats wrong?"she cried.

"You look funny" I lied still laughing my head off. She frowned and hit me with a pillow.
I hit her back and we ended up having a pillow fight. It was fun. Soon we headed to the annual dinner.

We reached the venue. Tents had been put up adorned with bright white lights. There was a large chandelier in the middle of the tent which was surrounded my five smaller chandeliars. It looked majestic. There were tables and chairs decorated with laced pink cloth and blue bows. There was a stage too and rows of tables with an array of lucious food. It was a magnificent sight.

Half of the school had arrived. I looked around for Nathan but couldn't see him.Marie couldn't find her boyfriend either. So we made our way towards our friends.

"Whoa,is that you Adam? With a BOWTIE?" Marie said to Adam.
"Of course ladies. Get a load of this" he struck a pose and gave a smile which he apparently thought was dashing.

We started laughing while Neal pulled his hair briging him back to his senses. We took pictures together.
I couldn't find my boyfriend which was annoying. Was he avoiding me? No he wouldn't do that.

I looked out towards the stage where some guy was giving out a bomb performace. I realized it was Nathan. He was beatboxing! Okay, wow he had never told me he could beatbox. I felt a little hurt.

Marie turned towards me in surprise.
"Isn't that Nathan? You never told me he could beatbox." she said.
I shrugged though I felt like he should have told me at least.

I looked towards Samanatha, the queen bee of our school, staring at Nathan greedily. My stomach churned as I sensed trouble. But I should trust Nathan I thought.

I didn't get a chance to meet him throughout the event.
As the we were heading out of the marque we saw him talking to his friends.

"Well look who it is." Said Marie to Nathan.
He turned around and smiled at me. All my suspicions fell away as I saw his dashimg smile flood my vision.
I wanted to talk but he got called by his friends again.

I sighed. I turned towards Marie, only to find her gone too. I started to look for her and finally saw her talking to Zach, her boyfriend.
I let her talk and waited.

After she was done with Zach we made our way towards the food stalls. Dang,the food looked fabulous. There were rows of various dishes put up on lined tables. There were iced drinks alongside. I grabbed a plate and started piling up food.

After we had gorged ourselves as much as we could I inexplicably started to think of my my bed with its soft mattress, the lamp casting a soft glow while I drifted off to sleep..........well you get the idea.

But then I thought of Marie since it was her last official day at the school event. I turned towards her. She was crying.
