"em!! we're gonna be late for the first day" shouted my best friend angrily, I live with my best friend, amy. Amy's been through a lot in life.. but she's truly amazing, sometimes she can get annoying but she's always been there for me when i needed her, we met in year 2 and since then we've been best friends and once we found out we got into the same university, we were so excited! now we live together. "em!! i'm about to leave without you!" she said angrily. I quickly started packing my stuff, I couldn't let amy leave without me, I don't want to be all alone on the first day! I quickly packed everything i could see..  and sprinted down the stairs, panting i said "i'm here i'm here, I can't believe you were gonna leave without me!" she started laughing loudly "I would never do that!, i'm glad that got you moving quick though" she said with a huge smile on her face and i smiled back.

Amy was one of the kindest girls, I'd ever met and i'm glad we were friends. "hey.. em, i know you and mark aren't on good terms right now and stuff but.. just text him before you leave, i doubt you'll probably see him again" suddenly i felt my heart drop. mark.. my ex friend, me and max had wonderful times together but mark had done something awful to me just a day ago which had completely torn our friendship, I didn't think i'd ever forget him for what he did.. but amy was right, I'd probably never see him ever again this might be it. Mark had apologised to me 5 times already, but i wasn't ready. I just wasn't ready to forgive him but maybe i should text him? yeah i probably should..

MARK:
hey mark, i'm leaving for university now.. I doubt we'll see each other ever again anyway thanks for all the wonderful times, it was nice being your friend. bye

sent. amy looked over my shoulder to see what i was writing about, I didn't bother to tell her to stop. The next minute, mark replied, I was surprised he'd reply so quickly, normally mark would take ages to just annoying me, something was up. what if he really did feel bad? what if he actually wanted to be friends again?

i opened up the text..
mark: hey emma, look i'm really sorry about what happened and i really do wanna be friends with you, it's just that.. i don't know what got into me last night, i promise i won't do it ever again can we please be friends again? we're going to the same university.. i was going to tell you last night but after everything that had happened i didn't have the courage.. crystal university am i right?

omg mark was going to my university.. i never wanted to see him again but he's back in my life going to the same university as me! I didn't know what to say.. he revealed his true colors last night, although he apologised i don't think ill ever be able to forgive him.. but now everything's changed he's going to crystal university.. i wish i could run. i wish i could hide away from all this.. but i knew i couldn't give up now. I've always wanted to go to crystal university ever since high school. I had to start facing my problems..
amy had probably read the text while i was day dreaming because she hugged me tightly the next second and with a quiet voice said "it'll be ok em.. whenever the past haunts you remember me i'll always be there for you ok? and don't quit" she said with a smile. I was honestly so lucky to have amy.. she's always helping me, I don't know what i did to deserve her but i feel lucky.
