For the first time in a long time tears that were happy streamed down my face. Yesterday around 3:00 pm my very best friend in real life sent me an amv. She made it especially for me. Who is this female I speak of? well...a few years ago, to me many years ago in Jr. high I met a girl who seemed a little on the shy side. She seemed delicate and cautious. I thought she was a little strange at first. We never really talked much till one day we were pushed by someone we both were friends with to talk to one another. It was awkward, till she mentioned something we both liked. It was from then on that we started becoming friends. Come around halloween, we became best friends. We've been through a lot together, she and I. Even through all the times I'd get in trouble she'd always stick by my side. I remember the times I'd walk her home, especially when perverted child abductors were sighted prowling near the school and the area around our homes. I wouldn't allow her to walk home alone. When she started being home schooled I started feeling lonely because I didn't have her around with me anymore. Even when I hung out with the others, there was always that feeling that something was missing. Now that I think back on it, I was missing her. But, after school she'd always come by to see me. She'd walk home to meet me when I got out, and we'd walk together. There was a time I recall where we'd keep calling one another back and forth on the phone the same night. Whenever someone needed it, we'd call one another back when said person was finished.

One day though she moved....can tell you I felt really bummed out about that..but, we still kept in contact. always calling when the chance arrived. there was a time when she did come over to visit. I cherished that moment as much as possible before she left. One day though, in high school my sophomore year I got news that we were moving. It doesn't take a genius to know how I felt about that. I was against it one hundred percent. Now here's where things get ironic. soon as I moved, she moved back. We were still parted from one another....but, still, we kept in contact. I made sure to get her number, and she my own. for eight years I didn't see her. always the only thing I'd get close to her would be the sound of her voice over the phone. or the talk over messengers. One day though, I returned to the vally to spend some time away from home. She and I were united again. Can tell you that was the best day in a long time for me. It seemed to go by too fast. I left the vally again. Months after, I returned. again, we spent a few hours with one another. I swear each time it was like a dream. always too fast yet seemed like it happened not so long ago. The third time we united again, was a whole day of just the two of us.

Now its been months since I've seen her last again...almost a year actually. I don't want that long period of never seeing one another again. Some people can find it strange but...she is my best friend. We've been through a lot with one another. always been there for one another. I still find it amazing that we sometimes can go months with out speaking with one another in yet, when we do talk we talk as if we'd been talking every single day. I guess you can say that's how strong our bond to one another had gotten. My point being is this. She's my best friend, and I love her. I don't know how to describe this kind of love, but its one I hold above everyone else. I love a lot of people, don't get me wrong. But this is my best friend. my real life best friend. When she sent me that amv yesterday, I was smiling a real smile I hadn't felt in a long time. Not the usual half smile or faint smile as portraid in my rping style. But an actual full ear to ear smile. The bonus, tears. I had to duck my face away from the people who were in the room at the time so that none would see me crying. when I returned home I watched it over and over again before going to sleep around three in the morning. Even as I type this, i'm listening and watching to the amv. and right now, i still feel the tears streaming down my cheeks. The song pretty much summed up how we feel about one another. The song being "Best friend" by weezer.

I don't know what I'd do if she wasn't around anymore. She's pretty much the main reason why I choose to still be around.

I love you, Riddle. Forever and ever. Your always my best friend, for better and for worse. Nothing will change that. Ever.
