Hey guys ;] i just wanted to tell you, that im going to post this 10 years earlier before going to present day. alright :D

Ten Years Ago…

I put on my best dress; it was my favorite too. I loved the purple flowers that stood out from the green peddles around it, and the actual color of the dress, which was all white, except the lace which was purple too. I told my mom to do a curly pigtail on me, and with that, she also tied a little purple bow on my head. I may be only 6, but today I turn 7. But that's not why im all dressed up; today's also my best friend in the whole world's birthday too! His name is Nick Gray, im on the only one who calls him Nicky; just like he's the only one who calls me Smiley, well my dad did too, until he died when I was 5. Anyway, I was looking in my room for a big box rapped in transformer wrapping paper. It was Nicky's present. I couldn't find it anywhere, and from what was a clean room, became a hot spot for where a tornado hit. It got messy! And I mean messy!

"Mom, where's Nicky's present AND my backpack?!" I yelled from my door. She stood silent for a minute, maybe thinking on where she put it. Finally, after a long wait. She finally answered back, "It's in the living room on top of the sofa! Hurry up Miles, you're going to be late for your first day of second grade!" I rolled my eyes; she was so weird every year I entered a new year. She stopped doing that to my older sister, Brandy, when she entered middle school! I don't want to wait that long! I ran downstairs but not too fast enough to mess up my curls, I kissed my mom goodbye; after a lot of pictures, I stepped out of the house and went straight next door to my best friend's house.

I knocked when I got to the door, which was odd because I never knocked; I was practically family from all the time I spend here and so was my mom- who also happens to be my best friend's mom's best friend! That's how me and Nicky got so close kind of. Our moms were then they got pregenant. And they were in the same hospital when they have birth to us.- I guess I was just nervous; a lot, "Happy birthday Miley!" Mrs. Gray said to me opening the door and squeezing me to death. But I loved her hugs, it made me feel fuzzy inside. "Thank you, but its Nicky's special day more." I said as I skipped inside, Denise just laughed, "Miles, it's your birthday too! Gosh, sometimes I think you guys care for one another more than you care about yourselves!" she said smiling walking towards the chair I was sitting on. The room looked a little different, I didn't know how, but it defiantly did. Well, oh heck! How did I know, I was only 7! "So, where's Nicky?" I asked looking around the room noticing he wasn't anywhere in sight.

"He's upstairs sweetie, you wanna go on up?" she asked me sweetly, I couldn't help but blush and smile, I shook my head and decided to wait here as a surprise. "Mom, which shirt should I wear? I want to impress Smiley on her birthday" I looked at Nicky and was surprised. He was wearing a white tee-shirt, holding 2 different shirts on his arm, cakey church pants, and his hair was pulled back and only one strand of his curly hair appeared in the front; if I didn't' know any better, I would say he was superman. I noticed that he didn't see me, so I answered the question for Denise, "I like navy blue on with the white stripes" I said and smiled softly, but the smile made Denise giggle and Nicky smiled big time! I think I saw teeth! "Smiley!" Nicky said as he ran towards me, I put the present down and ran towards him. We may have been born on the same day and the same year, but he was taller than me, and stronger than me; whoa what happened, I mean he's only 7 for crying out loud! "happy birthday!" we both said at the same time, we laughed at the comment, and went upstairs to put on his shirt, and on his request, some cologne he stole from his dad.

The car ride to school was the time to exchange gifts. He got me a silver dog tag with the writing: SMILEY+NICKY=FOREVER! I smiled and put it on me right away. When he got to open his present, he was so shocked. It was the transformer he'd been wanting ever since it came out. he looked so happy as he started playing with it. "There's one more thing in there too!" I said as I pointed to a small box that inside the bigger box. He opened it and saw a silver ring with the writing: N+S=BFFS. He smiled and tried to put the ring on, but I didn't fit, so he put it on the necklace he was wearing. "Im going to wear it on my figure when I get older, but for now, it stays right here on my necklace, close to my heart" we both burst out laughing at the comment he made, even though we both knew it was for real.

We finally got to school and we walked past everyone hand in hand. Everyone was smiling at us and saying 'happy birthday' we both enjoyed every minute of it. The rest of the day was normal. The real action was happening tonight when me and Nicky have our every-weekend-day-holiday-birthday-random sleepover. We played transformers most of the time; he was the decepocons and I was the autobots. After that, we orders pizza and only ate about 2 slices each. Then, we watched The Second Jungle Book. It was a really fun day, but I was tired and we had to go to sleep for school tomorrow. The next couple of days were boring, even without sleepovers. Every time I stepped inside Nicky's house I knew something was either A. missing or B. different. I just didn't know what. As I walked to his house one day, he burst the doors heading his way to my house. At that moment, I knew something was wrong; I started crying uncontrollably. I didn't know why, but when he slammed into me, I cried hard into his chest, and he cried even harder into my hair. We finally looked up after long un cheerful minutes.

"SMILEY! IM MOVING TO NEW JERSEY! I DON'T WANNA GO! I DON'T WANNA LEAVE YOU!" That's when the pieces fit, the different living room, boxes everywhere, Denise and my mother starting to act weird. They didn't want to tell us! We both ran inside my house holding hands and straight to my room, there we cried for hours straight, literally. I heard my mom talking on the phone with someone,

"Yes Denise, hes right here. Yeah he's perfectly fine! No, it's ok, he could stay tonight. Yeah, I know… I'll wake him up early. Yeah, she'll probably be awake even before I tell him to wake up. Then he'll wake up knowing that she woke up. I know! I sometimes wonder if its 1 soul in 2 completely different bodies! Alright, I know, I know! Sleep well. Bye" I knew she was talking to Nicky's mom, he knew it to, so he held on to me tighter. "Alright kids, time to sleep. Nick has to wake up early to catch that plane." My mom kissed us both goodnight and turned off the lights and closed the door. She left two little best friends crying their hearts out. "Smiley?" Nicky asked as he played with my fingers, "yeah Nicky?" I heard a little crack in my voice; I knew that was from all the crying. "you know I love you right?" I started crying even more this time, but not talking. "Yeah I know that Nicky, and I love you too" we held tighter on to each other knowing this is our last sleepover.

We woke up the next morning with the sound of my mom's voice telling us to wake up. I rubbed my eyes and noticed that they were wet and puffy. Pink eye? I thought to myself. I looked in the mirror, and noticed that it looks like I have been crying in my sleep. Is that even possible? I washed my face to try to make my eyes better. It worked a little, but you could still tell that they were puffy. We went downstairs to eat breakfast, and no one said a word maybe thinking that we'll start crying once we hear our voices. "Miley are you ok?" I heard my mom ask while serving us pancakes and sausages. I didn't want to tell her I was crying in my sleep because my best friend in the whole wide world will be leaving. So I answered: "yeah, im fine. Just a little tired." I forced a smile on my face thinking that she would just forget it. Luckily, she did. When we finished eating breakfast, I went upstairs into my room and went to the bathroom. Nicky did the same, except he went to the guest room to get ready. 15 minutes later we came out of our rooms. I noticed that he got a little teary eyed as he walked towards me and grabbed my hand. I know he didn't want to let go. I looked into his eyes and started tearing too. He wiped them away and smiled.

"Don't cry Smiley" he smiled at me and it made my face light up. When we got to Nicky's house, everything had been packed and ready to go. The furniture was getting put into the truck outside since it was going to arrive in New Jersey in about 3 days. The only things that were in suitcases were the real needy things that would go on the plane with them. I heard my mom and Nicky's mom talking in the kitchen, also crying. I tried to block out there voices as I sat in silence thinking to myself of how I was going to survive the rest of the second grade without him. "Smiley," Nicky said softly, but loudly enough for me to hear. It broke the silence of the room and I turned my head to his direction. "It's time to go" he said. I heard his voice crack a little bit every time a sound came out of his mouth. We rode them to the airport; the luggage was in a taxi that was following us. We got to the airport in no longer than 30 minutes. Before we would head off and leave the Grey's to get on the plane, Nicky took my hand and placed a piece of paper? Picture? I looked and it was a picture. A picture of us on our 7th birthday. "I have one, and now you have one. Something to remember me by" I broke down in front of him bringing him into me for the tightest bear hug I ever gave. We said our goodbyes and I walked my direction and he walked his. Both of us looking back before never seeing each other ever again. I went inside the car with tears still streaming down my face. My big sister held me tight, as I cried into her chest. When I finally calmed down, I looked down at the picture and smiled when I saw his face. Out of curiosity and randomness, I turned the picture around to find writing in the back. It was childish and kind of sloppy. It was written in blue permanent marker. My favorite color. 'My Smiley Miley' was what the sloppy note, written in blue sharpie said. "My Nicky Bear" I whispered to myself before going to sleep on the way back home to an empty room without a best friend.
