Friendship

He doesn’t remember me….                            





A long long time ago in atlanta georgia, there was this girl named Selena and she had a massive crush on this kid Matt, but she is too scared to tell him that she likes him. 

Then she told her friends, Sierra, River, and Theresa and they teased her about it. 

“You should tell Matt!” Sierra said. 

“But I’m too scared.” Selena replied. So her friends took it into their own hands. 

 The next day at school they went and told him. 

He said, “Omg I like her too, but I’m too scared to tell her. Can you tell Selena for me?” 

Sierra was so surprised she couldn’t wait to tell Selena. Selena was going to freak. Then after, they saw each other at school Selena and Matt exchanged numbers. They planned to go to the mall next weekend. Selena was so excited. She couldn’t believe that they actually had plans together. 

It was finally the weekend. 

Selena and Matt met at the mall and they got lunch at the food court. 

When lunch was over, they started to go shopping. Matt bought her a perfume from Bath & body Works. She got the scent of champagne toast. It smells so good.  

When they were getting ready to leave the mall, he walked Selena to her car then they kissed. Selena was thinking, that was the best kiss Selena has ever had. 

Right when she got home she faceti Jake said, ”Sure.” So where did they wanna meet? They were gonna meet at a restaurant called Grazie. It is an italian restaurant. Shortly after they got there she had gotten a text from her ex Matt saying that he was coming back atlanta. She was so confused but also kinda happy but she was wondering why he called her his ex-girlfriend's name. Soon later, she left and then she called Matt’s mom to see what was going on and it turns out that Matt was in a traumatic car accident and he suffered from brain damage. Selena was so sad she felt so bad. But, his mom said that he might get his memory back soon. That gave Selena a huge sigh of relief. Selena wanted to be with Matt so bad, so she ended up breaking up with Jake and dating Matt.



THE END

med Sierra, River, and Theresa. 

“Omg! You guys should date!” They all said.  

It was the next day at school. 

“Matt, do you wanna be my boyfriend?” Selena asked.   

“Yes!” He replied. She was like omg! Then they exchanged snapchats. 

When she got home she told her mom, dad, and brother that she has a boyfriend. 

Her dad said, “How come you didn’t ask me first?” 

“I didn’t think I had to.” She replied. 

“Well you did.” 

 Matt texted her and told her that he was moving to Dallas, so they have to break up. Selena was crushed. She couldn’t believe that he was moving to Texas. They haven’t even been together for 1 month.

 Then she called Sierra, River, and Theresa. They were supper supportive. 

“You will find a guy way better than him.” Sierra and River both said.

   The next day, she had school, and was still really sad.

Selena went to his house to say goodbye. They were both really upset. They both hugged and cried together. 

Then the next day he left to go to Dallas.

  This was the last time they were going to see each other… possibly forever. Selena cried and cried again. 

Then when she woke up the next morning, she called Sierra, River, and Theresa. 

“Matt left today,” she told them. 

One Year Later...

So they decided to go to the mall and got a bunch of clothes. They got a bunch of jeans and t-shirts.Then They saw the cutest boy ever. 

 “Oh my god he is so hot.” They all agreed.

They all went over to talk to him. 

“Hi! What’s your name?” They asked. 

He said, “My name is Jake. ”What are your names” Jake said “Do you want my number and snapchat?” 

“Sure!” Said Selena 

“Well, my snapchat is jackwatkins_2000.” 

“Ok. Thank you.” Said Selena.

“I will call you later.” Said Selena.

 A little while later, Selena called Jake and he answered. Then Jake and Selena started talking about maybe dating. This gave Selena a pit in her stomach.

“Do you wanna be my girlfriend?” Jake asked.

 Selena said, “Oh my god of course!” Then after they were officially a couple. 

Jake asked, “When do you wanna have our first date?”

 Selena said, ”Hmm maybe we could have it next week..” Jake said, ”Sure.” So where did they wanna meet? They were gonna meet at a restaurant called Grazie. It is an italian restaurant. Shortly after they got there she had gotten a text from her ex Matt saying that he was coming back atlanta. She was so confused but also kinda happy but she was wondering why he called her his ex-girlfriend's name. Soon later, she left and then she called Matt’s mom to see what was going on and it turns out that Matt was in a traumatic car accident and he suffered from brain damage. Selena was so sad she felt so bad. But, his mom said that he might get his memory back soon. That gave Selena a huge sigh of relief. Selena wanted to be with Matt so bad, so she ended up breaking up with Jake and dating Matt. Then Sierra gets a call from Matt's mom saying that he has his memory 100% back. She was so happy he could’ve died in the car accident. The next thing she knew,Matt was dead Selena started to sob and so did his mom. Selena couldn’t believe that he was gone forever. She thought that they were going to get married and start a family but it turns out that they weren’t goanna. Then when she got home that night she started sobbing in her mothers arms and said he is gone he is gone. It was so sad. Then she called all of her friends and broke the news they were all devastated. The next day at school,Selena was so blue she had just watched her boyfriend die

This was really good!! You had a good narrative where you walked through the story and took us along with the characters. I think CJ already asked this, but it gets a little confusing at the end. I read it as Matt's mom saying he got his memory back, and then Selena started crying saying he was dead. Overall this was a fun story, very upbeat and then had a beautiful ending. This was a great first story, and I cant wait to read more or your writing!!

This story was really good and I liked the big plot twists. I did notice something though and I don't think you meant to do this (You can also edit your stories after you submit them) but right after Matt and Selena kiss, it jumped into the same exact paragraph that you have at the end. Then it just continues with the rest of the story. I am a tiny bit confused about one thing: Is Matt alive or dead? I'm asking this question because it said that Matt got his memory back 100% but then it says that Selena can't believe he's gone. Overall like...
