Best Friends For Never

"Will you love me forever?" "Yes" "Me too!" Bella and Edward have been best friends since they were 5. Promises to love forever, they make it through. Although, now in high school, Edward's not the same when Junior year starts. AH/Canon/slightly ooc

I've been best friends with Edward Cullen since I met him at age 5. We do everything together – birthdays, plays, dances, games, etc. You name it, we've most likely have done it together. But ever since Junior year started, Edward's been a bit aloof. Although I haven't seemed to bring up the topic of what's bothering him, I really am quite worried. He spaces out, avoids me when I call him sometimes, and isn't willing to really talk or pass notes in class anymore like we used to. The only thing that actually still binds our friendship is the fact that he still spends lunch with me and chats briefly. I'm not one to pry or be overbearing, but usually, he's very open and light about his life with me. I reciprocate the same to him as well. I can still remember when we made that small pact when we were 6.

"Edward, are you my best friend?" she asked.

"Why shouldn't I be, Belly?" he replied.

"I don't know. I've never had a best friend before," she stated. It was a fact.

"Well, I think you're my best friend, and you think I'm your best friend, right?" he asked.

"Yeah."

"So we're best friends, then?" he asked.

"Yes." she said. Then she thought of a plan. "Edward, will you love me forever?" she asked.

There was a long pause. She was getting anxious. But finally, he answered, "Yes."

"Me too!" she exuberantly replied. She would promise, pinky swear, cross her heart and hope to die, that she would keep that promise forever.


A/N: how many of you guys liked it? I don't think I'll be finishing TYWG anytime soon. I think this may have more potential. Also working on another story. I'll upload it sooner or later. If I can get 2 reviews, I'll go on to chapter 2. Need some tips in those reviews, please! That's why I ask for them.
