Hey guys!

I have a new chapter of this story. I really liked writing it because I thought it was kinda cute.

I hope you enjoy!

We walked in an awkward silence, and a good comfortable distance away from each other. The smell of buttery popcorn filled my nose. We waited in the line.

He suddenly turned to me and asked, "Do you remember me?"

What does he mean? "Well...you just walked here with me, so…" I said.

He smiled and shook his head. "No, I meant do you remember me from before?"

I tried to think about it. Those brown eyes did look familiar, but I couldn't recall where they were from. "No." I said. "Are you mistaking me for someone else?"

"It's kind of hard to mistake your name with someone else's." he said. I blushed. This is one of those times where I do and don't appreciate my name.

"I don't remember you." I said.

"Really? We were like best friends in kindergarten." he said. I felt guilty that I didn't remember him.

He said, "I remember it was the first day, and I was scared to go into that class. And then you came up to me, and introduced yourself as 'Merca', and you helped me become more confident. And then I remember you would play with me during play time at the sand box. You were really nice to me. I didn't really have any other friends. Now, do you remember?"

We moved up the line. I tried to dig through my memories, but nothing was coming up. "I'm sorry, I don't."

"Well, do you remember anyone called Max?" he asked. I looked up to the ceiling in thought. The name 'Max' sounded so familiar. I remember mom told me he was my best friend in kindergarten. I thought more, images of sand boxes and a blond boy flashing before my eyes.

Max, Max, Max. Max!

My eyes looked at his, and a wave of nostalgia hit me.

I nodded with a smile, "I remember." He smiled. He was really kind to me, and I remember I made a charm bracelet, and had given it to my best friend. I guess I gave it to him. "Do you still have my charm bracelet?" I asked him.

"I think so," he said, smiling even more. "I still have that picture of us together. I asked my mom to take it. Here, I'll ask her to send it." He pulled out his phone and typed something in.

While we were waiting, I said, "Who would've thought? The two kindergarten best friends reunited after 11 years."

"Actually, it's 12 years." he said, laughing.

I playfully rolled my eyes and said, "Whatever."

We were interrupted by the cashier, who said with a smile, "What would you like?"

"Two medium popcorns and three medium drinks," he said. The lady put it all on the computer. "Is that all?" she asked.

"Ummm, also one tube of those M&Ms." he said.

She typed it in. "Is that all?" she repeated.

Maxon nodded.

"Your total is $16.50."

"I'll pay," I said.

"No, I'll get it." he countered. And before I could do anything, he slid the cash onto the table.

The lady took it and gave the change back. She took one of the tube of mini M&Ms and put it on the counter. Maxon took it.

He handed them to me and said, "I remember you said you like M&Ms." Whoa. This guy has amazing memory.

"Thanks. Here, I'll pay you back." I started to take some money out of my jean pockets.

"No, it's fine. But could you give me 5 of them?" he asked. I laughed.

I opened the top and poured a few into my hands and put it in his. How could I have forgotten who my best friend was?

We could barely hold the popcorn and the drinks. I held both of the filled bags of popcorn with struggle. Maxon took the three drinks in his hands. We walked into the theatre and slowly made our way up, careful not to drop anything.

"May, help." I said when we got there.

She immediately took one of the popcorn bags and one of the drinks.

"They're all Sprite." I announced to Marlee, Carter, and my sister.

We sat down and handed the popcorn and drinks around. I was in the middle of May and Maxon, Marlee and Carter to our right.

"Oh, my mom just sent the picture." Maxon said.

He handed his phone to me. On it, I saw me, a little giggling redheaded girl holding hands with a blond haired boy, who was laughing just as much. I smiled.

"This is so cute. Can you send it to me?" I asked him.

"Yeah, sure. What's your number?"

I put my contact info on his phone and sent it to myself. I think I would always treasure this photo. He was my first best friend and this is a reminder of how close we were back then.

The movie was pretty terrible, but the whole trip was worth it because I was reunited with my old best friend.

On the bus ride back to my apartment, Marlee said, "I saw you were talking a lot with that new guy."

"Yeah. You know, he was my best friend back in kindergarten?" I said.

"Really?"

"Yeah."

There was some silence.

"Hey, you wanna stay over at our place tonight?" I asked her.

"Let me ask my mom." she said, pulling her phone out to call her mom.

"Hey, mom. Can I stay over at America's tonight?"

I heard a faint voice from the other side.

"Yeah, but it's only Friday. I'll do that tomorrow." she said.

I heard her mom's voice again.

"Yeah? Okay. Thanks, bye." she said, hanging up.

"I can come," she said.

"Good! Hey, May, Marlee's staying over tonight." I told my sister.

May really liked Marlee as a sister, and said, "Yay! We should watch another movie or something like that."

"Nah, I've ha-" I was interrupted by my phone buzzing.

I checked it and saw I had a text message from Aspen. He was my our friend from elementary school, who was also in my music class.

'Hey, u hav the sheet for the project guidelines?'

'Ya. I'll send u a pic when I'm home.'

'K. Thx.'

I don't know why, but Maxon kept on coming into my mind that night. But I didn't complain, because I liked it.

Sorry for the awkward ending, but I hope you enjoyed!

Please review! Bye!
