HANNA'S P. O. V
On Thursday I headed towards my locker after lunch to pick up my books for next
class, but as I was opening it Caleb came and playfully shoved me into the
corner of the hallway.
"Ouch, Caleb!" I yelled out and smacked his shoulder.
"Sorry babe." he said and kissed me.
"It's fine." I said with a smile.
"We're still on for tonight right?" he asked.
"Of course, why?" I asked.
"Just making sure." he replied.
"Anyways I got to go. See you tonight?"
I nodded and kissed him. He winked at me and walked away.
I walked back to my locker and took my books. But when I closed my locker, there
it was, my nightmare for today; Mona.
"Hello Hanna." said Mona.
"Hi Mona." I answered.
We are still fighting and she came up to me? Does she want to apologize?
"Listen, I am sorry for what happened a week or two ago. It was me." she said.
Just as I suspected; an apology.
"It's fine." I said quickly without even thinking about it.
I walked away with a pointing action which meant 'I will go now'.
But as I walked into the courtyard; Mona was yelling out my name,
"Hey Hanna!"
I turned around and saw her running towards me.
"Do you want to go with me to the mall tonight?" she asked.
"Um well." I murmured.
"Great, I will pick you up right?" she asked.
I just groaned and froze. I don't know why but I just froze.
She walked away with a hop and disappeared into the hallways.
I took my phone out and texted Mona: 'I am busy tonight with Caleb. Sorry.'
I slipped my phone into my sweater pocket and ran across the courtyard.
As I slipped down the hill and sat down onto the thin grass, I received a text:
'I can't believe you Hanna. Meet me after school beside the big oak tree. We need
to talk.' That was from Mona.
I opened up my Biology textbook because a Bio test is tomorrow and I need to
study.
"Can I join you?" a voice called out.
I lifted my head up and saw Emily.
"Sure." I said with a smile.
"Studying for the Bio test?" she asked as she sat down next to me.
I nodded and read under my breath.
"So you busy tonight?" she asked.
I lifted my head up and put my opened textbook onto the grass.
"Yeah, I am going out with Caleb. You?" I asked.
"Nah." she answered.
"Maybe you can take Maya out somewhere." I suggested.
"She is out of town today. I think she went to Brookhaven with her mom." she
said.
I nodded and continued to study.
-3 hours later-
After school I took my bag and ran outside to the big oak tree. I spotted Mona and
walked up to her with a frown.
"Where are you going with Caleb?" she asked with crossed arms.
"We are going to his house." I lied.
"Fine, I am coming with you!" she yelled out proudly.
"Mona! No that's just way too far. He's my boyfriend, let me spend time with
him!" I said.
"So? I am your best friend!" she yelled out.
"Not anymore!" I shouted and walked away towards my house.
-1 hour later-
"Mom I am going out!" I shouted as I ran downstairs.
"With who?" she asked.
"Who do I usually go with?" I asked.
"Caleb?" she suggested.
"No, I am going with the girls!" I lied.
"Then why are you bringing your backpack with you?" she asked.
"Because they asked me to bring some magazines and nail polish." I said.
"Anyways, I will be late, so I am going to go."
I ran out the door and biked my way to the forest.
-1 hour later-
"Hey." I said as soon as I spotted Caleb in the forest.
"Hey Hanna." he said and kissed me.
I took my helmet off and pushed my bike onto the ground.
When the sundown passed and in came the crickets, Caleb and I had a roast fire
with marshmallows.
"The sky is beautiful." I said as I lifted my head up to look at the sky.
"Yeah, it's almost as beautiful as you." he replied.
I looked at him and I couldn't breathe as well as speechless.
-30 minutes later-
When we were inside the tent; I was reading a book when I started crying.
"Babe, what's wrong?" asked Caleb.
"My mom hates you, but I can't let you go." I answered.
He kissed me and I started to pull his shirt off.
"Are you sure?" he asked.
I bit my lower lip as so many thoughts zoomed in my head.
'Alison, mom, the cruise and Caleb.'
I looked at his attractive abs and said,
"Yeah, I am sure."
He pulled my shirt off as I turned the lamp off.
