My best friend

I've been criminal partners with my best friend Greyson McNamara for a time now. We made an agreement to do all the crazy teenage things together, including pulling practical jokes, sneaking out to parties, and joy riding in our parents' automobiles. It was never on that list to date each other, surprise, surprise. It's not like Grey has a terrible appearance or something. Wink, wink.
Let's return to the topic of not dating. We've been told for years how great we would make a relationship and how well suited we are to one another. Naturally, we always laughed it off until that very day.
After two consecutive breakups at the end of our senior year, all we can think is that we have nothing to lose. This includes our belief that dating over the summer prior to college wouldn't affect anything. We committed to remaining friends through thick and thin.

We have nothing to lose, as I mentioned. So what if I'm not correct?
