" Hunter! give me my ball back" screamed 7 year old Lilly James. Her best friend since birth, was running around the yard of her house in  Sacramento, California, with her pink little ball she won from an arcade. They were both 7 and they were always inseparable. " You have to catch me first Lilly" Hunter shouted delighted.

They had everything planned out of there future. They would graduate high school together, go to college, get jobs, and at some point raise a family. They loved each other, and some people would think ' Oh hey, They are only seven, they don't mean it but they did' . It all changed when Hunter's Parents got in a nasty divorce. 

"Hunter y-you can't leave" Lilly chocked through her sobs. She had just found out that Hunter had to move to Clearwater, Florida  " Mommy! he- he cant leave" "Sweetie,  he has too. I know this is hard on you and i'm sorry." 7 year old Hunter couldn't bare to see his best friend since birth like this. " Lilly I promise you, Someday we will see each other again, and when we do I will steal your toys again" Hunter said.

Lilly laughed between sobs " Y-you promise"

" I promise with all my heart"
