The girl in this picture with me, she's my best friend. Emphasis on BEST.
Like other best friends, we've had our fights. But we've never let one ruin our friendship. We're too close for that. We just can't stay mad at each other. It's physically impossible.
You may say, "Wow, these two look really stupid." Well, we are. We do the stupidest stuff together. When we're together, we act like total goofballs, even in public! Believe it or not, there was a time when we weren't like this. We actually used to be at each others throats constantly.
You see, I used to like her. When I told her, she took it the complete wrong way. We were constantly trying to embarrass each other. We threatened each other, we argued with each other, and we completely and utterly hated each other during this period of time about two years ago, when we were in Grade 7.
But then, around the second or third month of Grade 8, we both smartened up. I remember it as clear as day, we were standing outside of the music room with our class waiting for our music teacher to get there and unlock the doors when she said that she doesn't like us fighting and then asked if we could be friends again. I said yes. Best move of my life.
From there on until now, the two of us have become very close. We've told each other about all of our troubles, our problems and anything that's just plain getting us down. She's given me the strength to finally stand up to all of the bullies that had been putting me down over Facebook and in person for years before that. Now, I'm a free person. I don't have those bullies getting me down anymore.
The two of us have been through heartache, depression and so much more together and we always manage to pull each other out of it. It's like a metaphorical piggy-back. One of us holds the other up, and vice-versa.
We've made so many plans together, like plans to see a One Direction concert someday. We've introduced each other to so many things, like Tumblr and different kinds of music. We've met so many people together and we've even began introducing ourselves as, "Hi! I'm Spencer and this is my best friend Cassie!" and vice-versa.
I honestly have no clue where I'd be without this kid, I believe in that statement so much that I even put it in her Christmas card! Without her, I'd probably have all of those bullies on top of me still. I'd be so deep into depression, I'd probably be cutting, I could have even been suicidal. A bond like this just goes to show how far being a good friend can go. Please, if you see someone without a friend, find them a friend, it's as easy as saying "Hi!".
I love the bond I have with my best friend. I'd trade it for nothing. I'll never forget her.
I now, can truly say, that I LOVE Cassie, like my sister that is. Stay amazing girl!
Friends forever,
xx. Spencer
