This being the fact that Myles had fallen in love with his best friend, Colto...

I was sitting on the swings when I first saw him. It was the first day of first grade and I hadn't made a single friend. Even after being nice and giving everyone big smiles like Mrs.Johnson said nobody wanted to play with me.
Which was why I was sitting on the swings by myself, not on the frog slide with everyone else.
I was jealous, so incredibly jealous. I could hear there laughter from across the playground. All I wanted was to laugh with them. I felt my eyes starting to water and I quickly wiped them dry. I didn't want to cry everyone would look at me.
I snapped my head up as I heard footsteps approaching. In front of me I saw none other than Colton Stone.
Colton Whiteside had just moved to town from Califriona and he was the talk of the school. All the teachers were eager to ask him questions about the warm weather and the kids if he met anyone famous.
He said he had, twice, which made all the kids want to be his parnter for gym. Which was why I was so confused why he was standing in front of me.
"Hey" He gave me a wide as he sat down on the open swing next to me "I'm Colton"
For a moment I couldn't speak still confused why he was talking to me. "Myles" I fianllg introduced after a long pause.
I waited for him to speak but when he didn't say anything I bluntly asked "Did you see me crying?"
Colton turned to me and shook his head. Once he saw my face pale he quickly said "But I don't care. I cry too"
I perked up a little bit "You do? A lot?"
Colton nodded again "Oh yeah. I cried just last night. My mom made me eat carrorts and I hate carrorts"
I smiled lightly at this "I don't like carrots either". It was the truth. I hated them more than I hated bedtime.
"Thank you! They are so gross" Colton scrunched his face up in disgust for a second.
After a moment Colton asked "So why were you crying? I told you why I cry so you have to tell me"
I hestiate wondering if I should lie. If I told him that I didn't have any friends he would proablly laugh at me. But then again lying was wrong.
"Nobody wants to play with me" I say honestly looking towards the slide. A few kids were staring at us. Proablly why somone as cool as him was sitting with me.
Coltom followed my glance and scuffed. "There so annyoing trust me you don't want to play with them" Colton said loudly. Loud enough so that the other kids could hear. That made a few kids gasp.
Colton gave me another smile "I'll play with you" he offered.
My eyes widned with surpised as I looked at him "You will?" I said cautiously scared this was all just a sick joke.
"Yeah but if I do you have to do something for me" He warned "You have to be my friend"
My heart started beating faster "You want to be my friend?"
"Of course I do" He said like it was the most obvious thing. "So..."
"Okay" I agreed to happy to say more. I jumped to my feet and Colton did the same. I started walking but he stopped me.
"Wait" he called out from behind "You have to pinky promise"
"What's that" I asked dumbfoudnly.
Colton walked towards me and grabbed my hand "Well it's like a promise but we can't break it and we hold pinkies"
That sounded easy. I watched as he intwined out pinkies I looked up at him waiting for him to tell him the the next step.
"I pinky promise to be friend forver" he said.
"That's a long time" I chripped but jd gave me imapient eyes so I repeated "I promsie to be friends forver"
With that pinky promise I sealed my fate. I didn't know it at the time but keeping that promise was going to harder than I imagiend.
. . . My heartstrings ughh Don't worry chapters are way longer. Commet what you thought about it
