Distance.

Before I started high school I never thought I would end up in a long distance relationship. I doubted people who were in those types of relationships. Basically, I didn't think they could work for me. Things change, people change and three years later I'm in one of those long distances relationships I told myself I never wanted to be in.

I met Andrew in March. He tweeted me, we talked for a couple days and then it just didn't work. Then again in April he talked to me again, and from then on everything fell in to place. I was in a bad place when he met me, a place I didn't think I could get out of. He was different, he wasn't like the guys at my school. He wasn't a douchebag and he didn't talk down on girls like most guys do. He listened to me, he could tell I wasn't happy, that I wasn't the girl he knew I could be. He wanted to help, and most people wouldn't do that. He's one of the sweetest people I've ever met, and he's really good with words.

I fell for him much more quickly than I thought I would, and I don't regret it at all. I got a feeling with him, that I never had before with anyone else. He's been helping me with my depression and all the other problems I have, and he does it with ease. He understands a lot more than I thought, and he surprises me every day. Andrew's one of the most awkward people I ever met, his personality is amazing, and he completes me. There's just something about him that pulled me in and made me never want to let go. He's my best friend, and I know he'll be here for me through anything. He means so much more to me than I can tell him, because I can never find the right words.

I will do anything to make him happy, and I know he'll do the same for me. I'm only seventeen and I found the person I want to be with forever. I know I'll never meet someone else like him and I'll be stupid if I ever let him go. He's unique, he's funny, and he makes me smile. I'm not like every other girl, I'm very difficult to be with. I'm so happy he's stuck with me this long and he hasn't left me yet. I know I can't live without him, I'll be incomplete. He's my other half, my soul mate. He makes me happy. I love all the letters, late night phone calls, the gifts, the smiles and laughs, and especially the 'I love yous'. I don't want to be with anyone else, I don't want anyone else. I'm staying with him forever. We'll have been together for six months on the twenty-third, and I couldn't have asked for anyone better. I have the best.

I haven't been this happy in a very long time, and I know there's not enough 'thank yous' that I could say to pay him back for all he's done for me. We're 985 miles apart, but that doesn't phase us.

Friends That Stay Forever.

Taylor, Andrew, Katelyn.

Friends are the people that are supposed to be there for you. Friends are supposed to care just as much as you care. Friends are supposed to eat all of the food out of your fridge. Friends are supposed to have your back. They are supposed to be like a second family. Sometimes, you don't get friends like that. You get "friends" that are out to hurt you. Friends that are liars. Fake Friends; the ones like that should be kicked in the face. I don't think I would say I have friends. I have acquaintances. People that only come to me when they need something. I know a lot of people like that. Which sucks. I don't associate with many people. Because that's just the way I am. But there are three amazing people, that I know will be there with me until the very end. I've ignored or gotten angry with each of them. I've fought with them. And they haven't left me yet.

Taylor. She's the one I've known the longest of the three. We had a rough start at first, and didn't like each other. We grew out of that. Freshmen year we became really close. I'm glad because of that, I've learned a lot more about a person then I ever thought I would. Well, with her anyway. We rarely fight, but when we do we're back to normal the next day. We know exactly what buttons to push, to piss the other one off. We know exactly what makes the other person happy. We're similar in a lot of ways. Different in just as many ways. Taylor is a friend I plan on keeping forever. She's carried me through a lot of difficult things, just like I have done the same for her.

Andrew. He's the one I've known the shortest of the three. He's different from any other guy you'd meet. He sees things in a completely different way, and that's what makes him unique. He tries to make the best out of any situation, whether it be making you smile or saying something stupid to make you laugh. (Which works every time). I think if he could, he'd marry music. He talks about it all the time, and somehow puts it into every conversation that I have with him. I don't trust guys that easily, but I trust him. He has a way with words, a way that makes you feel good about yourself. He understands, more than most guys would. Basically. Andrew is the only guy I trust at this point. We've known each other for a little over a month, but it feels like I've known him forever.

Katelyn. She's in the middle of all of them. If I ever need a laugh, she's the girl I go too. She says she's not funny, but she really is. We find out something new about each other every day. Katelyn is kind of like Taylor in a lot of ways. They have a lot of the same qualities. I think that's why we became friends so fast. Skype. Normally when this happens, we Skype for like two hours but it only feels like five minutes. I never have a dull moment with her, because she'll say something and I'll laugh for about an hour. She's also different, but that's what makes her, her. I wouldn't want her to change anything about herself.

All three of them are completely different people, but share the same qualities. They've been with me from day one. I'm a difficult friend to have, but I know they'll never leave. No matter what I deal with, if I fall, they pick me right back up. And I do the same for them. In my eyes, I see us as the four amigos. Even if Katelyn and Andrew live miles away. I love them all more than anything. I wouldn't trade them for anything. These are MY best friends, even if they are a little weird at times c:
