Chapter 10: Girls and their hair...

…

"All right ladies, let's start fixing some hair…", Lola said and I understood what the girls were doing there: Lola was going to help us all with our hair before the show. She started with Sophia. "So honey, do you have something new to tell us?", she started conversation as she tied her hair in the back of her head. Me, Natalie and Tara were sitting on the huge bed. We were all about the same age.

"Not really…", the girl answered her, "Honestly I'm curious about the new girl. Hannah, tell us something about you."

I looked at her, realizing she was talking to me and smiled. What could I say?

"Oh, there's not much to tell…"

"I know something…", Natalie said, "You like Connor…". Oh God… What?!

"What? No I don't.", I said, probably blushing.

"Yes you do.", Natalie said and then turned to Sophia, "I talked with Mrs. Baker today and she said he bought her a necklace.", Oh God… Why?

"Oh really?", Lola said, twirling Sophia's ponytail to a bun. They all giggled.

"What? That doesn't mean I like him…", I tried to explain.

"Well, he likes you… And who wouldn't like him back? Just look at him.", Tara said.

"Who said he likes me?", I asked.

"Hannah, he dated my sister, Sabrina, and never got her a necklace… He likes you.", Tara said.

"He almost killed me twice…", it just came out of my mouth.

"What?", Lola said, stopping twirling Sophia's hair.

"Well, the first time I saw him, he almost cut my neck with his ax and two days later he almost stabbed me with his blade.", I explained.

"But now he likes you, so who cares?", Natalie said and we all laughed.

Lola finished Sophia's hair, that was very a beautiful bun, and nodded Tara to go and sit in the stool and she did. Sophia sat with me and Natalie on the bed.

"I really don't think he likes me… Sometimes he acts strangely.", I said.

"Well, he's Connor, what did you expect? Anyway, I think you are very lucky because probably every girl in this village has a huge crush on him and he doesn't know we exist, so…", Tara said, sitting down.

"That's true.", Sophie and Natalie said at the same time.

"I thought he liked that girl, Dianna.", I said and they looked at each other, smiling.

"We thought that too, until we saw the way he looks at you…", Sophie said. Awn, really?

Oh my… What if that was true? Probably not… But what if it was? Damn you, Rotonh… something.

"Oh my God, she's blushing…", Sophie said.

By this time, Lola was finishing Tara's 'fishtail hair' and I was wondering how she could do that so fast… We were all laughing about that conversation… I didn't know them, but they were very nice and looked like the kind of people I could be friend with…

Suddenly we heard someone walking in the house and stared at the door. Connor comes in… Very nicely dressed, kind of like Ezio in Assassin's Creed, when he meets Cristina for the first time.

"Just came to see if you were ready…", he said, kind of lost and curious to see us all there. Of course all the girls gave me 'that look' like: Look who just walked in… and Lola said:

"I'm just finishing the girls hair, It will take a second."

"All right, I'll wait outside…", he said, "Girls and their hair…", he murmured leaving the room. We waited a few seconds to continue our conversation.

"Sweet Lord, he is so cute!", Tara said and we all lost it and laughed really hard… He was…

"All right, Tara, you're done. Natalie, come on, it's your turn.", Lola said.

Tara looked very beautiful too and now Lola was making Natalie a beautiful braid… She could do that really fast, so it didn't take long to be my turn. She made me what I like to call (not sure why) the 'nature hair', which is twist two thin strands of hair on each side of the head (above the ears), pinning them at the back.

After that, we all put 'hippie style hair bands' on our hairs and went outside. Connor, Rick and that guy, Kyle were outside waiting for us.

"Finally… Thought you never came out…", Kyle said.

Connor looked at us greeting each girl. When it was my turn, he just stared at me.

"Something wrong?", I asked.

"No…", he said.

I smiled and looked at the girls through the corner of the eye. They were making those faces again…

"All right, let's go.", Rick said.

…

The show was in this huge tavern close to the market. It had dozens of wooden tables and stools. There was a big, but not very tall stage, where people would probably perform. There were three tables very close to each other: one had 2 stools and the other two had 3.

"All right, you girls can stay together if you want. Pull a sit and put in on your table. I'll stay here with Rick, Kyle and Connor.", Lola said.

"But Lola, this table only has two sits, luckily there are other two. We girls can sit here and you guys can sit over there… But two people will have to stay there…", Tara said and I understood nothing…

"Or… We just pull those stools over here, and we could all stay in two groups.", I suggested.

"The owner doesn't like that…", she answered me. What was happening?

"I can sit there with Kyle.", Connor said. I saw Tara taping Lola through the corner of the eye. What was she trying to pull? With the tap, Lola said:

"But… I need to speak with you, Kyle. Connor, can you please stay there with one of the girls?"

"Hannah can go.", Tara said. Oh, I get it… Tara was trying to make me and Connor stay in the same table… Damn it, Tara…

"Tara…", I murmured.

"I'm sorry, Hannah… I hope you don't mind…", Lola said.

Grrr… "Fine…"

So we sat down:

Table 1: Me and Connor

Table 2: Tara, Sophia and Natalie

Table 3: Lola, Kyle and Rick.
