My friend and I were close. We hadn't known each other that long, but it didn't matter. We knew EVERYTHING about each other. I thought that our friendship was going to last forever, but I was wrong. I remeber the day that we first met. It was in biology class. He comes and sits down next to me, and I remember that I'm trying to figure out who he is. He's a new kid-- well, not really, since his family had lived in the area his whole life, but he had always gone to a differnt school. But, like I said before, I don't know who he is. I find out his name later. For this story, let't call him "Tyler." For a while, we were just aquaintances, but soon, very slowly, we became friends. I think that our friendship really started on the day that I got him to help me sell energy efficent lightbulbs with me for our schools enviornment club. He agreed and that day we sat up a table at a local store. It was fun, and it was the first time we had hung out outside of school; even though we had met in September, and it was now March. Tyler and I had so many good times. There were very few bad times between us. A mutual friend and I even threw him a surpris party-- even if we did manage to mangle the cake design. He still really liked it, or maybe he just said he did so he wouldn't hurt our feelings. Well, weeks passed from that May day when we had his party, and soon summer came, and with it the end of school for the year. He had gotten his driver's license, and we were able to hang out more then ever. At least once a week we would go and get pizza, and I remeber that one day, I even took the day off of work so that I could go to the doctor with him, because he hadn't been since he was six, and thought that the stethoscope would hurt. We went to a local theme park, even though it ended up being closed, and to the movies. We had alot of fun that summer, but, unfortunately, as everyone knows, good things cannot last forever. We began to fight. Alot. It was hard to fight with him, but it seemed like it was inevetable. We began to fight more and more, but then, finally it seemed like there was a break in the war we had caused. We were hanging out again, and everything was perfect-- until he asked to borrow money. He asked me if I had $20 I could loan him. I did, because I had just gotten paid, so I gave it to him, and asked him to pay it back the next day. He agreed. Well, the next day came, and I asked for the money back. Tyler responded, "I didn't bring it. I didn't know that you wanted it back." He then told me he would bring it the next day. I agreed that was fine. And it was, until I realized that I needed the money that day. We hadn't talked all day, and I was upset, because I knew that he was mad about the money. I knew that I shouldn't drive when I was like that, but, when my mother came to pick me up, I asked if I could drive anyway. She let me, and the next thing I knew, I was in the ditch. Everyone was fine, but the car was a mess. I needed to come up with money for the tow job fast, so I texted Tyler and said, "Look, I know I said you could pay me tomorrow, but I got in an accident, and I need the money now." He texted back and said he would bring it after school, but that that was the last time he was going to talk to me. I didn't like that at all. I didn't want to loose him. He was true to his word. He gave me the money, and then drove away. He didn't look back. It is now over three months later. I miss having him around, but I know he doesn't want anything to do with me. I wish there was some other way, or that we could at least talk about it, but I know that's not going to happen. He has changed so much since I've known him, but I guess I have too. I have a whole new group of friends. I have taken up smoking. Well, I smoked when he knew me, but I planed on stopping; but after loosing him, I smoked more. So, for anyone who has a special friend or two, don't loose them. Treasure them forever. Make them realize how much they mean to you. I lost Tyler, and if I could go back and redo that whole thing, I would still have him, but I can't so I have lost him. But I hope that no one out there ever EVER looses someone that means as much to them as he did to me.
The loss of a true friend
