"Let's just not think about Jack." James says quietly. I nod my head. "What do we talk about then?" I ask quietly. "Are you gonna stay here?" He asks with a shaky voice. I nod. "I would never leave you." I say quietly. I cuddle closer to him and lay my head on his shoulder. I close my eyes. "I really hope that's true. I don't wanna lose you, Sky." He says softly. I frown. "I didn't know you cared so much.." I whispered. He looks at me. "Of course I do! You've been my best friend since Pre-K!" I look down. "I know but..." He looks down. I smile softly. "Remember in Pre-K when you ran into me, and I fell forward, busting my lip open?" I say quietly. I hear him chuckle softly. "I had completely forgotten about that." He said. "I did too. I just thought about it for the first time in years. That was an oddly good day." He laughs. "How was that a good day!?"
I look at him. "You don't remember? I had a HUGE crush on you! And you ran into me. I was freaking out." I laugh. "Man how the times have changed." I add. He smiles. "You used to scare me, you were like obsessed till fifth grade." We both laugh. "True, I was very annoying." I laugh more. "I love reminiscing the memories with you, James, we have too many good ass memories." He smiles. "Yeah, we really do. I can't believe those little kids that ran around being dumb, are about to graduate, and go into the real world." He says. I look at him. "I think those dumb little kids we used to be would be proud of what we've become over the last 12 years of our life." I say, smiling slightly. "Yeah, you're right. We sure have grown up. I have mixed emotions about it.. Like just yesterday we were playing on the playground thinking all the boys and girls had cooties, and now we're gonna go off to college and start our lives. I'm happy.. but I'm sad. You know?" He says.
I finally see him. I never really seen the part of him that was like this. He's never serious about anything. I smile slightly. "I'm just sad. We're all grown up, James. There's no more acting dumb and pretending we don't know how to do things in class. All the people we've gone to school with up until now... they're going off to college in some other state, and we're never gonna talk to some of them again. I mean, it really upsets me, I've known these people all my life and now I'm about to watch them walk across the stage and begin a life that they get to control. I'm honestly just not ready to graduate, can we go back to being those dumb little kids? Please? I am really not ready to be an adult." James looks at me. "I wanna go back too. It's too bad that we have to actually decide what to do with our life. We make the choices now. No more mom telling us what to do and what not to do. Like... I'm gonna miss my mommy!" James says and we both laugh. I look around. "This is it." I look at him and we both look absolutely terrified. "We're gonna do it together, right?" He says quietly. I nod and laugh.
"There is absolutely no way I'm going into the real world alone." James nods. "Together." He says quietly. "Together." I say back. Then I look down. "Jack was supposed to go with us." I whisper. He frowns. "I know. I'm gonna miss him too. But he hurt you. I can't let him do that again." He says, looking at me. I look at him. "I really don't see why you care so much about me. I'm not worth all the worrying. You don't need to worry about me. I'll be fine." He pulls me closer. "You are worth way more than you think. I really wish you seen just how much you mean to people." He says quietly. I sigh. "Are you ready for all of this stuff to be over? Wait, are we gonna live here during college?" I ask. "I mean, you're gonna have to help pay bills." He says smiling. "DONE!" I yell and smile. "I'm ready now." I say quietly. He looks at me. "As long as I have my best friend there with me, I'm ready too." He says with a big grin on his face. I can't help but smile. His smile is so contagious, I swear. I poke his side and I laugh. Then he does what he's most known for. He says "Is not funny." in the cutest little mad kid way. I laugh more.
He tickles me and I squirm. I'm laughing so hard. "Stop!" I scream, still laughing. "This is torture!" He doesn't stop. I'm kicking and flopping around like a fish. After a couple minutes, he stops. I catch my breath. "Jerk" I say under my breath. "What was that?" He says, I back away. "Not again!" He grabs my sides, tickling me again. I start screaming, but he doesn't stop. I whine. "I'll leave if you don't stop!" I say. He stops. "You can't leave it's three in the morning." he says. "Shut up butthead." I say back. He just laughs. "I'll stop cause I'm nice. Okay?" I smile. "Thank you for being nice to me." I say, laughing. "No problem, just don't give me a reason to be a bully and start tickling you again. We got a deal?" I laugh. "Yeah. Sure. Whatever you say." I say back to him. He laughs. "I love you." I say, smiling. "I love you, too." He smiles back. "I know." I say.
