Hanna calls Travis.
"Can we meet at the brew in about ten minutes?"
"Sure, but it seems like something is wrong, I can hear it in your voice. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I just, really want to see you."
"Okay, see you in ten."
Hanna and Travis meet up at the brew.
Hanna sighs, "I have something to tell you, but I'm not really sure where to start.."
"Just tell me, I'm listening.."
"Well, my ex boyfriend Caleb showed up at my house yesterday, and he said he wants me back. When I told him no and that I moved on to someone else, he refused to hear any of it. Then, he pushed me against a wall, and kissed me…"
Travis gets an angry look on his face and he stands up from the chair he was sitting in.
"I definitely didn't expect to hear something like this.. but uh, how did you react to the kiss?"
"I forced him away, then slapped him in the face. I opened the door so that he could leave and before he did, he said that he wasn't going to give up on us getting back together, so I don't think that was the last time I'll be seeing him… he will show up again, somewhere, and it could be at any time."
"I'm not going to let him take you away from me. You're mine now Hanna…"
"I know, but what happens when he shows up again? He could try to kiss me like he did last night, or even something else… I'm telling you Travis, this isn't going to end well…I can feel it. I just want him to leave me alone… Caleb and I, were together for a really long time and yes, I did love him, but he didn't know how heartbroken I was after we broke up and he didn't even check up on me to ask me if I was okay. I sometimes would text him, but I got ignored, and he can't just show up again thinking I'll just forgive him."
"I don't know.. But he better not kiss you or try anything else, if he does, it isn't going to end well. I can guarantee that."
Hanna got a worried look, "Everything was okay, but he just had to show up again, and after what he did to me… I don't know if I'll ever even forgive him."
"Honestly, you shouldn't."
"I agree, but I'll talk to you later."
Hanna kisses Travis and heads for the door to leave, but Travis stops her for a minute.
"Just so you know, I will never hurt you, I promise."
Hanna's face lit up like a red balloon, and then she left.
Hours later Travis receives a note from Hanna, even though she's not the one who sent it and he doesn't know that yet.
The note says: Meet me on my front porch tonight at 8pm.
See you then.
Hanna
Travis leaves to meet Hanna on her front porch, but he sees Caleb and Hanna talking.
"What the hell is he doing here?"
"Caleb, please, don't make this like yesterday."
"I'm not. I just want to talk."
"There's nothing to talk about."
"We don't have to talk then."
Caleb steps towards Hanna and leans in for a kiss, this time Hanna kisses him back.
Travis is in shock as he watches Hanna and Caleb. He looks like his heart just broke into a million pieces.
"I promised I wouldn't hurt her, and she ended up hurting me."
Hanna and Caleb stop kissing.
"That was a mistake. I shouldn't have done that."
Caleb laughs, "But you did."
Travis approachs Hanna and Caleb.
"What's going on here?"
"Travis, please let me explain before you say anything."
"There's nothing to say."
Caleb hurries down the front porch steps and quickly leaves.
"You still love him."
"Deep down I always will. He was the first person I ever truly loved, but he hurt me and I don't want to be with someone like that."
"If you don't want to be with him, why did you kiss him?"
"I don't know.."
"Did you set all this up? I got your letter telling me to meet you here at 8. Did you want me to see you and Caleb. If you don't want to be with me, tell me.
"I do want to be with you. And I didn't send you a letter?.."
"Hanna, I just need to think. You have no idea how much that hurt me. Give me a few days to figure some things out and then we will talk.
Travis leaves and Hanna runs in her house, leans into the door while bursting into tears.
"What did I do? I just ruined everything…"
