I miss how we used to be.

You'll always be my best friend.
I miss how we would stay up until early morning just talking about everything (from the intellectual to the downright stupid). I am quite proud to say that we were never victims of awkward silence. There was always something to laugh about, something to share, secrets to unravel, idiotic mistakes to be confessed. You were so eager to know more about me, and so was I. 
I miss how you would show up in my school before back when I was still in highschool and you were in your first year of college. You always had tricks up your sleeve, like pulling rabbit from a hat; You either had roses or mary grace cheese rolls or pancake house spaghetti to surprise me. And I was so easily amazed.
I remember laughing so hard after you bought me a ponds whitening toner for valentines. I thought to myself that it was highly unromantic (almost insulting) but you were my best friend. And for that, I couldn't hate you. Not even one bit. 
I remember you giving me frootloops for my retreat because you didnt want me going hungry during those 3 days that I was away for soul-searching. You also gave me that for our 3rd monthsary. It was all wrapped up in a fancy purple gift wrapper. I shook it, like any curious person would, and by the sound it made, I asked you if it was a box of peanuts.
I remember when you bought me bunnies. I miss Chuck. He was the smartest bunny ever. And the weirdest. I still have that video of him where he was nipping peanut butter off a plastic spoon. 
I miss how you would come over all the time and come with me and my siblings to the park. We would race each other, you'd teach me and my brother how to play football and you'd be the show-off that you are.
I miss everything about us back then. What happened?
