When they reached the kitchen, Lily finally let go of her hand and threw open the pantry door with dramatic flair. “Guess what I still keep stocked just for you?” she announced, her eyes sparkling. She pulled out a bright red bag of kettle-cooked salt and vinegar chips. Maya’s jaw dropped. Then she let out a shaky laugh that turned into a sound halfway between a giggle and a sob. Her hand flew up to her chest as she felt tears sting her eyes. “Lily… you didn’t have to…” she whispered, her voice trembling. Lily stepped forward, serious now, and hugged her again. “Of course I did,” she said firmly. “I missed my best friend. You’re the only person in the world who would finish these with me wit

Now, perhaps there will come a time when I want to move on, but till then I am happy here. When I was younger, I always had my nose stuck in a book, and because of it I was not popular. But one day, when a new girl came into town, I finally found a friend. Since then, we have been best friends through thick and thin. Even after she found out that she was pregnant with Billy Jones’s baby.

"Neal, I don't have any real friends. I was part of Tally's group, so I always hung out with her. I never had the chance to make proper friends myself while being at school. It was always school work and hanging out with Tally." "Jesus. Well, that does explain a lot, actually,'' he replied, causing a gasp to leave my lips as I laughed. "What's that supposed to mean? I'm not that terrible, but I mean, I'm not like other people here. I don't really care to party. I may look like a party girl, but I'm actually a bookworm. That is my deep, dark secret. I am a bookworm who loves to wear fuzzy socks and curl up in bed and read a book or watch a movie and drink coffee or hot tea."

Others may have bonded over the holiday spirit, matching shoelaces, or any other thing that they wouldn't be ashamed to tell someone in the future. Not us. We bonded over bonfire horror stories. Not in a cool way, but in the most pathetic way possible. Autumn, Jess, Mey, and I were scared and a little traumatized by the story, so we didn't have the courage to go to the toilet alone. We waited for each other's turn to release their bladder tension, and since then we became best friends. After Miss Norrington released me, I was the only one walking since most students were in class for the fifth period. I wasn't one who liked to hurry things, so I didn't bother to run. It was quiet, yet I foun

I look to my left and see Gia standing and hitting her champagne glass with her fork. “Since you guys are all full, I think it’s time for my maid-of-honor/best-daughter’s speech.” I glance at Fenice and see her smiling as she turns her full attention to Gia. “As you all know, B is my best friend, and Papi is my father. My best friend fell in love and married my father. Isn’t that something?” She chuckles before continuing. “I know what many of you are thinking—that it’s weird. Trust me, I get that. It was weird for me, too. But then I realized how much they love each other and how happy they are together. Their love is special, and nothing should ever keep them apart,” she says as she wipes

“You know what, Nats? I’ve never met someone like you in my life. Someone who’s so good at seeing the good in me. They all think that I have no tomorrow and chance, but you are the only one who believes in me.” She then put her hand around my arm as we started walking, “Of course I believe in you, because you are now my best friend.” “I never had a best friend before. At least I already know the feeling of having one right now. So, do best friends really need to be clingy like a koala?” I kidded. Natalie smiled and hugged me even more, “Uh-huh. Hahahaha!” We were laughing while walking when my phone began ringing inside the pocket of my skirt. I took it out to see who it was and as usual, th
