The silence between them was an accurate description of deafening. Spencer was standing there trying to come up with something to say. She had never been one to be of silence, but then again she had never been in such a situation before. Hanna continued to roll her eyes every now and then. She wanted this awkward tension to go away more than anything. They were best friends. Awkwardness was not suppose to be apart of it. Eventually Hanna uncrossed her arms and let out an exasperated sigh. She was going to get something out of Spencer. After all, she did come over to her house unannounced.
"Okay. Seriously what did you come over here to say Spencer? My mom is going to be home any minute and she asked me to have dinner prepared so..." Hanna crossed her arms once more while leaning back onto the counter.
"Hanna, I've known you and your mom for a very long time. Since when do you cook? You guys have takeout every single night it seems." Spencer eyed Hanna curiously waiting to see how she was going to overcome the small lie she told. Hanna rolled her eyes once again and huffed.
"Besides the point Spencer. You came over here, apologized, and practically begged for me to let you in like a lost puppy dog. So just answer my question from before. What is it you came over here to say?" Hanna said the last question a little more softer than before. Yes, she was still angry at what happened before lunch in the bathroom, but she and Spencer were still friends so she was going to hear her out even if she acted like she wanted the exact opposite.
Spencer uncrossed her arms and sat up straighter at the bar stool she was currently sitting in. She folded her hands and kept twiddling them in hopes it would help better prepare the next words that would come out of her mouth. Hanna could not take it anymore so she placed her right hand on top of them. "Stop doing that. It's literally making me go bananas here." Spencer stared up at her and could not help but let a small smirk grace her face. Hanna let a small smile appear as well before letting go of Spencer's hands. Hanna opened her mouth to say something but immediately closed it when she saw Spencer open her mouth. Finally.
"Hanna...today the fight we had back at school is something I wish I could take back. You just irritate me so much to the point where it doesn't matter what it is. You could say the word pie seven times and it will make me fume with anger. At first, I thought it was nothing. Then it turned into something more. I actually.." Spencer sighed and ran a hand through her hair while turning her head towards the refrigerator. She then looked down at the ground before hearing silent footsteps making their way in front of her. She eventually looked up and saw tears forming in the blonde's eyes. Confusion crossed her face. Maybe she should have worded that a little differently. "Hanna-" The blonde sniffed and looked down at the ground as well. "So are you saying—are you saying we can't be friends anymore? Because you apologized to me and then, then you say this..I.." Hanna trailed off looking around before anger filled her once more. "I'm confused here! My brain is not equipt to handle something like this!" Spencer stood up and grabbed Hanna's shoulders before leaning in. The kiss was gentle and did not last very long. Hanna pulled away from Spencer and could not believe what she had done. "Are, are you gay Spencer?"
Spencer could not believe what she had done. She was suppose to be subtle about this. Why did coming here at the time seem like such a good idea? Now all that ran through her mind was that she had ruined any chance she had with Hanna because she was too rash in her decision. She did not know what to do though. Hanna was freaking out and she did something without thinking for the first time in her life. "I'm sorry Hanna. I have to go." She grabbed her bag and ran towards the front door. Before she could open it Hanna was in front of her with tears falling down her face.
"No. You don't get to come over here, say those things you did, and kiss me out of nowhere. What's going on? Just tell me." Hanna was more confused in this moment than she had ever been in her entire life. Trying to figure out who -A was had nothing on this. Maybe it was the mere fact that it was Spencer who started random fights without any reason behind them. Maybe it was the mere fact that she had just been kissed by none other than her best friend. Hanna knew the truth deep down. She felt something when Spencer kissed her. It was nothing like she had ever felt with Sean or Caleb. It was different. The fact of the matter was, different scared her.
"Hanna just move. I have to go."
"No."
"Hanna. Move."
"No."
"God! What are we five again!? We can discuss this tomorrow or quite possibly never. Right now I have to go home." Just then the lights began to flicker and the loud clap of thunder echoed throughout the house. Lightening came not to long after and Hanna smirked knowing full and well she won this battle. "Guess you have to stay here until the storm is over." Hanna locked the door and walked back into the kitchen to get a couple flashlights. "Candles are underneath the bathroom sink!" Spencer rolled her eyes and threw her bag down on the floor. It was just her luck that this had to of happened.
"Spencer!?"
"I'm getting them Hanna!"
"We're still not done talking about that kiss!" Spencer inwardly groaned and made her way upstairs to retrieve the candles. This entire situation turned around in a way that made her feel like she was going to get whiplash. Yes, she told Hanna everything she did these days irritated her. She did not get to tell the part of how she secretly enjoys seeing Hanna angry. It was a turn on. She shook her head and rid those thoughts. Now was not the appropriate time. Spencer could not help but think back to the whole "unrequited" love thing being a lot easier than what is going to happen now. The heart knows what it wants though. That someone was none other than Hanna Marin. Basically, she was screwed.
