Chapter 2: Best Friends Forever

It all started on June 18, 1995. My birthday. And Damon's. Yep, same birthday. Our moms were in the same room when we were born. My mom and Katy, Damon's mom, were best friends since high school. So naturally, Damon and I would be besties. We were inseparable.

We've been through a lot together. From a bully pulling my braids in pre-k to me helping Damon get his out of a staircase, don't ask. People ask if we are twins because we always finish each other's sentences. Sadly, no we aren't twins. But I wish we were.

Our friendship is not based on our birthday. We have the same favorite colors: blue and white. We both like chocolate ice-cream. We have everything in common.

We have been in the same homeroom from pre-k to now. Even our lockers are next to each other. We know everything about each other. Except my secret that I like him. That's one secret I will keep for as long as I can. But everyone knows that there's no secret in high school. Now you see where this is going.
