Chase,

It sounds like you had an interesting Thanksgiving. Mine was dull compared to yours so I won't bore you with the details. :)

I had no idea that Hannah's parents died! When did this happen? I feel so awful! I don't know how I'm gonna be able to talk to her like normal now...

Anyway, I am looking forward to Christmas time, how about you? I love Christmas. It really is the most wonderful time of the year. It is alot different at PCA. What do you do for Christmas? My parents, Dustin, and I fly to New York to spend it with my grandparents so I definatly call having the notebook during winter break.

Gotta finish my homework.

Dorm 11:58 a.m.

Zoe-

New York sounds awesome during Christmas. I've never been there and really want to go. Christmas at my house is the same as Thanksgiving, if not worse. I usually just sit around the house and count down the days that I get to go home... I mean PCA. I really don't know what I would do if PCA didn't exsist. It's my escape from my insane family. Did I every tell you about my cousin Jakob who has a pet artichoke??? No, I am not kidding. I really wish I was. It's frightening.

Anyway, Hannah's parents just recently got in a car accident and they didn't make it. It's been really tough on her but every day she's opening up a little more. It's weird that it's me she's opening up to but nice in some way. Don't be weird around her now that you know. Just be the same sweet, friendly Zoey you have always been.

Chase

"Hey Hannah," Chase rushed over to Hannah who was coming out of her class.

Hannah's eyes lit up when she saw him run to her and smiled her perfect straight white smile in his direction," Hi, Chase!"

They kissed hello briefly. "Wanna eat lunch with my friends again today? They've been complaining about the fact that I hardly sit with them anymore."

"No problem."

The two walked to the table that Chase's friends usually sat at. The group's talking and laughter ceded as Hannah sat down in Zoey's old spot.

"Hi everyone," Hannah said with a big friendly smile.

No one responded to Hannah's greeting. It was abouty 79 degrees out but never in Hannah's life had she felt more cold. They just stared at Hannah and Chase.

"I'm going to... um... go be somewhere that isn't here." Hannah got up and fled the table, leaving her books behind.

"What is your guy's problem?" Chase asked his friends.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Nicole asked.

"Tell you what?"

"That you're going out with that girl," Michael said.

"That girl happens to be very nice and why should you guys care who I go out with anyway?" Chase asked, aggitated. His friends stared at him and he rushed off after Hannah.

A/N: Sorry it's been so long. I have been so stressed out lately. When I was on Spring Break in Wisconsin I passed out, had a ceasure, and was in the hospital for the very first time in my entire life. (No, I was not born in the hospital. I was born at home in a beanbag chair. No joke.) Anyway, here you are. I haven't forgotten about my stories, I swear. I did get my driver's liscence, which makes me happy! Yea!

Oh yeah, please review. :)
