My eyes burned with my tears I shed. The night had so many wonders, and terrible moments of my life that happened since I was young! My sister was killed in the night, my mom hit by a car and hospitalized, the beautiful snow that sparkled in the moonlight and lastly my best friend was leaving. George was my best friend since first grade, now he was moving eleven states away. I watched as his tears flowed from his cheeks, his beautiful blue eyes now puffy and red. He walked up to me hugging me so tightly I hugged back sobbing he looked at my green eyes tenderly. "You'll always be my best friend!" I whispered into his ear. He smiled at me still hugging me.
"I will always remember my best friend too! And I have a confession. I like you Rachael, and I mean a lot." He whispered in my ear. I blushed at him, he laughed tears still coming out of his eyes that formed a river over his cheeks. He kissed me quickly waving his hand at me as his dad pulled him away. "Bye, Rachey! Call me everyday, and write!" He said over his shoulder.
"I will!" I said trying to overcome my blushing and crying. My brother, Kaleb put his arm around my shoulder comforting me as I sobbed louder.
"Calm down, Rachey. He'll be back to visit in a few weeks. Also his dad and mom said he could stay for christmas break." Kaleb said kissing my head.
"Really!?"
"Yes, please try not to be sad for long."
"I'll try not to."
"Thank you. Grandma and Gramps will be worried. Let's get home." He said as we walked down the sidewalk to my house.
*****
The next few weeks brought me happiness, and sadness, and I met a new friend. I was walking down the cold icey sidewalk, hoping not to trip in the darkness. I heard rustling in some bushes behind me, I guessed it was a stray cat so I ignored it. That's when something grabbed my arm throwing me down to the ground. I hit my head hard, my vision blurred and all I saw was a man with a scraggly beard, and cut up face. "Nighty night!" He laughed running away, I blacked out.
****
I woke up to beeping, and footsteps. I opened my eyes seeing nurses in white uniforms, patients in plastic nightgowns, and doctors in blue scrubs. I saw a cot next to me with a male occupant. He was my age, 13, and had stitches across his face, he saw me looking at him and smiled. "What are you in for?" He asked in a huskey tone.
"I don't know?" I said in a matter of factory, "I was pulled down hitting my head hard."
"Stabbed in the face and arm." He said.
"Oh, what hospital is this?"
"Flower. So what street you live on?"
"Niagara, you?"
"Me too! What house number?"
"345"
"346!"
"Wow we live on the same street!"
****
I was walking home, my new friend Jacob, on my other side. I met him at the hospital, we got let out the same day, and played games at eachothers house. We both went to the same school, and liked the same things. "Did you finish Ms. Broyes homework?" I asked him. He looked over smiling.
"No, I didn't get it!" He answered.
"I know!I mean inequalities?"
"What was she thinking?"
"What are you doing over the holiday break? We have ten days!"
"I don't know?"
"Want to hang out?"
"SURE!" He said happy. We walked up to my porch laughing about the joke I made before. I opened the door for Jacob and I to get inside. kaleb was standing in the laundry room.
"Rachey! You have a visitor!" Kaleb smiled. I pulled Jacob up to my room closing the door behind us. I put my backpack down on the floor laughing, I turned to find George sitting on my bed. "Hey, Rachael!" George said smiling. I haven't seen George in a month and totally forgot about him.
"GEORGE!" I screamed tackling him to the floor. He smiled at me, laughing. "I've missed you!!!!"
"Me too Rachey! Remember, Kaleb said I could stay with you for break!"
"Oh yeah!"
"Mhm!" Jacob cleared his throat looking at us.
"OH! George this is Jacob, my new friend!"
"Hey, what's up dude?" George said smiling.
"Nothing, Rach told me all about you once we got out of the hospital." Jacob said George's eyes widened.
"Hospital??"
"Um... I was attacked once you left, George." I said looking down.
"YOU DID!!!"
"Yeah, that's how I met Jacob."
"That's terrible!. Well it's all better now! We're all friends!" George said. We all got into a group hug crying our eyes out. That's when I figured out Christmas wouldn't be the same without my two best guy friends.
