chapter 1

5 years ago

"Alyssa hurry wake up, wake up" Brooklyn said as he shook me back and forth while I was sleeping on his living room couch."Ugh, what do you want, it's too early for this" is what I told him half asleep."We are goanna be late for school!!" he said in a worried voice. My eyes flew open , I ran out of my little bed/couch and into the restroom and threw on my clothes. As I was doing my hair I heard a knock on the door I opened it and there stood Brooklyn with a smirk on his face. I looked at him and I finally understood, it was a Saturday. I stomped out of the restroom, pushed Brooklyn out of the way, and laid back down on the couch. I tried to fall asleep but I couldn't it was too hard to after all that panic. Right as I was about to fall asleep I hear him whisper in my ear "you love me don't cha." I looked at him, smirked and gave him a pat on the back and said "you wish buddy" then went back to bed.

Brooklyn and I were the best of friends in 5th grade. Me and him did everything together, and his parents loved me. He was like family to me. I was at his house more than I was at mine. He was so sweet,funny, and loud. That's why he was my best friend, that's why I liked to be around him. I never knew what it felt like to miss someone so much you'd cry. Until I moved from my bestfriend, from my home. " I have to" I told Brooklyn when I announced the hard news to him. " My parents got a job offer in California and there is nothing I can do about it , I'm sorry but my parents are waiting outside, I have to go bye." "Bye" he whispered back as I walked away. I got in the car and drove off. He ran trying to catch up to give me our friendship bracelet that I had left on his bed, but it was too late.

I never knew what it felt like to love your bestfriend until this summer, 5 years after I left Brooklyn Beckham.
