Personal Narrative: Losing Our Friend

Improved Essays
Losing our friend Star was by far the worst thing that had ever happened to either of us. Trying to stay strong for Harley was hard but she let me break down a couple of times. Some would say that made me a pussy but Star was like a sister to me.

I was pretty sure her and Clayton had been staying in contact because every so often I’d mention her and he would get a sheepish grin on his face. Knowing Sarah, I knew that once she had a few drinks she would tell us everything about their quote un quote—relationship.
We went to the same club as before and the same bouncer lifted the red velvet rope for us to get in. Harley explained the he was an ex of Sarah’s sister or something along those lines I couldn’t hear her over the pounding bass. The drinks were delivered to our table, just like last time we each took a shot of tequila and washed it down with beer. Some of Harley’s classmates stopped and visited with us, one petite red head would stare at me then blush and look away when I smiled at her.
“Names Ryder!” I held my hand out to her.
“Chloe, I don’t mean to keep staring but you are absolutely gorgeous. You’re a perfect mix of Jeremy Meeks minus all the tattoos and William Levy. It’s like if they could make a baby together you’d be the product of them.” She laughed.
“I have no idea who Jeremy Meeks is.” I told her truthfully.
Harley gasped, “He’s only the sexiest criminal EVER! Have you been living under a

I want to start off to let you guys know that you aren't in any trouble, we just need some information on your friend Christian.” She studied the group in front of her: Hailey Trooper, Becky Rimes, Celina Moore, Tristan Reese, and an older woman whom she presumed to be Tristian’s mother.

Our knees brushed the leather of the middle row seats and our dresses crumpled beneath our legs. The engine rumbled as Devin turned the key in the ignition. Ivy glanced back at me, snickered, and murmured something inaudible to Jessica and Annalise.…

    The Struggle to Find Real Friends in a World of Counterfeits I learned from a very young age that making friends was not going to be easy for me. My parents, originating from the modest, genuine Canadian countryside raised me in Miami, the superficial capital of the world. My definition of friendship did not align with most Miamian’s definitions, to say the least. By six years old I had realized the importance of making friends based on their personalities, while every other six year old had already been engrained with Miami’s morals and had made friends for shallow reasons such as money and looks.…
