A/N:
Abs: Sorry if hannily moments is not enough on the chapter 12. I've finished writing that chapter before I just didn't post it yet. But on this chapters I will unravel the past of Em and Hanna :D so just stay put and enjoy the ride. I just want you to know that this fic is not hannily endgame but more on their friendship. Alison also has a big part in this whole story.
Paige POV
I decided to go to Hanna's house first it's been a while since the last time we walk together to go to school. I also want to have some update on what's happening in Hanna's life. Ms. Marin said that Hanna is not feeling. So she just let me go upstairs.
"Hey Hanna what happen to you?" I ask her as I sit on the edge of her bed. I can't see her face because she is under the duvet. She didn't say something so I pull the covers to check her forehead but I think she doesn't seem to have a fever or something.
"Hanna what's wrong? You know you can tell me anything" then put my hand on her shoulder in order to pull her to look at my direction.
"I know that something's wrong come on Han." I insist
When I she is facing me I can see that she have this puffy eyes and red nose like she cried all night
"Hey what happen why did you cry?" I said then I moved beside her then I lean on her headboard. She didn't still answer my question but she hugged me on my stomach. I just put my arms around her then rub it up and down. She starts to sob again. I don't know what happen. I saw her in this state before but she didn't tell me what happen on her.
"What happened Han? I've seen you before in this exact state, come on tell me is this the same person?"
She just shakes her head.
"N-no" She answered then shakes her head vehemently.
We just sit there for several minutes then she speaks.
"Do you remember last year?" She said then she sits up
"What's with last year?" I asked her then I tucked some hair on her ear.
"Last year I confessed to someone" She said then she smiled. I don't know where this story telling will lead. But I let her continue.
"I've been following that person around since the day I meet her but she didn't even notice me." She shakes her head but she is still smiling.
"But she dumped me. I don't know if she thinks that everything is rolling fast that's why she left and me she doesn't even said a word." She said then she looked at me. I guess she's waiting for me to say something.
"It's been a year and your still crying?" it really confused me it's been a year and she seems okay this past month why now?
"No silly that's just the beginning." She said then rests her head on my lap.
"When that girl dumped me, I keep myself busy making friends with everybody go shopping anything just to take my mind off of her." She continued
"Yeah I remember that. Know the whole school know you." I comment then giggled a little to this.
"Then I meet this someone." She said then her smile is back
"I don't know I thought I'm into girls or just with person with long hairs" She said then she looked at me.
"What! Wait your seeing someone and I didn't know it!?" I said in shocked
"No we didn't go out on a date." She said
"We are just always together doing nothing listening to music having a great time." I can see the sadness in her eyes
"He has been there for me ever since Em dump me. Helps me in picking up the pieces of my broken heart discreetly" She said then she closed her eyes like reminisce. I just look at her taking in everything
"Wait wait! So that special someone is a he? Did he dump you too?" She shakes her head. Wait she said Em! This confession is really driving me nuts.
"Wait! Em? Who's Em?" I asked her and I felt that my voice goes up in a higher pitch. She cracks open her eyes and looked at me.
"Em as in Emily. Emily Fields" She said then I jumped at my position to stand up. This news really surprised me. Why does Emily need my help when Hanna already confessed to her?
"Why didn't you tell me this!? And who is this guy? What did he do if he didn't dump you?" I questioned her and put my hands on my hips
"Well Emily doesn't want me so I think I didn't want to talk about it anymore then while I'm keeping myself busy I meet Him."
"Wait but Emily confessed to you just this past couple of months?"
"Wait you saw it?" She raised her eyebrow.
"Yeah but it's all an accident. Why did you tell her that what she feels is not what she thinks?" I'm still confused on everything.
"Emily is this really sweet and good person" She started.
"Yeah I totally agree on you there" I comment
"When I confessed at her I just confront her then shouted that I love her. I think it's a really idiotic move and so hilarious. She panics on that situation so she leaves."
"I think she is just confused and felt guilty to what happen." She continued
"But did you know that she is always stuttering and so disoriented when you are around?" I countered her. I don't think that it is good to assume that you know what the other people think or feel.
"Yeah I know that at first I just thought that it is because she is embarrassed on what happen. I find it cute too." She said then gave me a strained smiled again
"But I don't feel that what she felt for me is love in my opinion it is just a crush or some infatuation."
"How can you say that! You didn't know what she really felt you didn't even let her show you that she regretted everything you don't know anything!" My anger is building up yes I love Hanna but I also care for Emily.
"I know how to feel what love is Paige believe me. I know how it feels when the one you love is near. When that someone say your name or just look at you in the eyes" She said calmly
"It's what I felt when I'm with him. I also felt that he feel the same but he is leaving and didn't even bother to give us a try! He won't even talk to me now even just to look at me!" She is crying again. I walk in front of her then hugged her.
"I'm sorry Hanna, I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that" When her sobs died down I kneeled and kiss her in the head.
"Would you like to go somewhere and just forget everything for now?"
Emily POV
I'm walking again outside just to breath in some fresh air. Paige and Hanna didn't go to school today I don't know if it is because of what happen to Hanna the other night. I just sit on the spot where I saw Hanna crying. Then someone sit beside me. When I looked up I saw that it is Hanna and she is smiling at me.
"Hey Em thanks for last night" Then she give me back the handkerchief.
"a-ahmm its okay I'm always here for you" I said then looked at the ground.
"I know that you'll be always there you're a good friend Em a really good one." She said then gives me a smile
"u-uhhh is your problem already solved?" I asked her because it really bothers me this whole day. She didn't answer so I looked at her
"Y-you don't have to tell me if you don't feel to tell me." I add immediately
"No it is not yet solved. But I'm getting there"
"Just tell me what I can do in order to help." I tell her
"Em I want to say thank you to you" She said
"Thanks for? What did I do?" I asked in confusion.
"Ahmmm for dumping me." She said but it is more of a question than a statement. I raised my brow to question if what does she mean
"It's not a sarcastic comment Em" Then she smiled again at me.
"I really believed that everything happens for a reason and if just one thing in the past is different the whole future is gonna change too." Then she paused but I didn't say anything
"Because of what happens to us I met this wonderful and amazing person. Yes we didn't happen but at least I met him and know him as a person. For me it is already enough" She continued but I can see that the tear is forming in her eyes. I hand her my handkerchief
"Don't worry Em now I'm prepared with the crying and tears" Then she wave her handkerchief at me then she wiped her tears.
"May I know who this person you were saying is?" I asked her I'm really curious to who that person is I didn't saw Hanna with anyone
"Don't be mad at him Em. I think he have some reason why he choose not to talk to me or just give us a try"
"Don't worry I will not start anything it more of Paige and Spencer thing" and we both laugh at this.
"Yeah it more there thing" She nods her head.
"So can you give me a name now? So I can put a face on this dumb who's turns you down?" I insist on her
"Ohh look who's talking" Hanna said but she is grinning at me mockingly. Her comment makes me blush. Why did I say that!? I'm not even thinking I'm the first one who dumped her.
"Right I'm the dumb number one, so who is the dumb number two?" I said when I recovered on my embarrassment.
"The Dumb number two is Caleb, Caleb Rivers." Then she sighs
"I thought you're into girls? But I guess love is love" then I wipe the tear on her cheek with the use of my thumb and give her a smile
"Yeah I thought so I guess I'm just surrounded with lady lovers" She said then she holds my hand, the one on her cheek.
"Thanks Em. You're really an amazing person. You will find the person you will love someday. When that person arrives makes sure to do everything just to make that person happy." She said then squeezed my hands.
"Yeah I promised you" Then I smiled at her. I guess Hanna was right on what she said to me during the first day of class. Maybe I don't know what I'm feeling yet. But like what she said someday I will find that person. I don't know when or who. Maybe we already met maybe not yet. But I'll make sure to give my very best to that person. I will do anything, even letting her go
