Hanna's Pov
I slept peacefully on Spencer's bed. I make my way downstairs to make myself a cup of coffee. To my surprise, Emily was already up, making breakfast. "Good morning," I said, giving a weak wave.
"Hi" She said as she gives me a plate of eggs and bacon.
"You cooked?" I ask. I take a seat down on the stool on Spencer's kitchen counter.
"Yeah, I was up early anyways" She said as she gives me a fork with a smile. I take fork and smile back. Is this awkward? I can't tell honestly, it's a mixed feeling. There's a huge feeling in me that is really looking forward to being friends with Emily again. Then again, there is that feeling where I want now part of her because she caused my heart to ache for too long.
Let it go, Hanna. She hurt you years ago. I tell myself.
"So how was your life in Oklahoma?" She asks
"It was okay. Drama-free.. They have really good food and coffee restaurants around" I said.
"Ah, but there's no place that will ever replace the Brew" She said. Now thinking of the Brew, there's a certain memory that made my face heat up lightly.
I practically kicked down the door to get inside the Brew. I haven't seen Emily all day, which means I haven't kissed her all day.
And there she is, picking up the cups and placing them into the dish-thing. I walk up to her, but her boss, Zack was around.. "Hey, Em, I kinda need your help," I said,"There's something in the restroom that kinda bothers me" Lie! I just want to make out with her.
"Okay?" She said awkwardly, but smiles. I lead her to the restroom and kick each stall door open to make sure no one was in here. A wider grin came across my face and I have her back against the door.
She licks her lips and stares down my lips. I close the gap between us and kiss her deeply. Her lips move along mine in the perfect rhythm. We pull away slowly. With my thumb slowly tracing her jawline, I leave trails of kisses, going lower under her neck. I sneak my hands under neath her shirt, feeling her warm skin with my cold hands.
She backs my hands away. "Nope, not happening" She said.
"Since when did you become a prude?" I laugh
"Since we are in this restroom like this during my shift." She said with her thumb caressing my hand. "Plus..." She said slowly, "I want our first to be special, baby."
"Okay, fine" I said. It was mainly her calling me "baby" that got to me. I love it when she calls me that.
"Promise, we'll wait?" She said with her pinky up.
I wrap my pinky around with hers. For a second I get lost in her eyes. "I promise," I say and for a second I get lost in her eyes. "Just don't make me wait too long"
"I promise" She said as she presses her lips against my forehead. I feel her smile and it feels like the best thing ever. This is our first promise and I intend to keep it.
"Yeah, the Brew is pretty special" I smile. "We made our first promise there" I pointed out.
Emily's teeth flashed and she grins. "You remember?"
"Of course" How could I forget?
"So listen, Han.." She said slowly, "Are you sure you don't want to talk about the past?" She says referring to the night where I caught her.
"I just want us to move passed that, Em" I said, but it's hard to ignore the questions in my head. Why did she cheat on me? Did she not love me anymore when she cheated on me? No. I can't think about this.
"How were you since then?" I ask. Is that a proper question? Can I ask that? There's this huge part of me that really wanted to know how she was doing since the passed two years.
"I been.. Okay" She shrugs. There's this tone in her voice that sounded, rather, disappointed. But why? Was it because I left? What happened here in the last two years? When I left, did everything change?
Thinking more deeper in my thoughts, the perfect question that popped in my head.
What happened to Alison?
My whole brain tells me not to ask.. At least not yet. It's too early.
"Why, okay?" I ask
"Well for starters, you left" She lets a small laugh that sounded sweet to me. I missed that laugh. "And things just... I don't know, changed" Well that kinda confirms that things did change when I left..
She turns around to the fridge and I take another bite of her delicious cooking. "Hey Em, can you give me a napkin?" I said, before noticing it was right in front of me.
"Yeah, sure" She said. Both of our hands reach for the napkin. Her warm hand lays on top of mine. I look up to her and I already catch her gaze.
"Uh.." I said.
She shook her head and shyly said, "Sorry" And takes her hand away from mine. She leaves a lingering feeling on my hand..
Later that night.
There's some kind thud that hit my window.
Another thud.
I move the curtains out of the way of the window and slide the window open. Something almost hit my face, literally a inch away. "What the fu-" I said before realizing that the one who was down there, throwing pebbles at my window, was Emily. My eyebrows furrow and my run my finger through my ruffled up hair.
"Come down!" She calls
"Are you drunk?" I ask. The only reason she could be here right now, is if she's drunk. Which, brings me back the memories I had about two years ago..
From being sound asleep to being wide awake, my ears hears a loud muffled voice singing 'Wide Awake' by Katy Perry. I slide my window open and see Emily. "Falling from cloud 9!" She sings loudly.
I couldn't help myself but smile down at her. She knows I love Katy Perry. "I'm going to open the door for you!" I yell down at her. I feel bubbly inside for no apart reason. Should I be upset that my girlfriend came her drunk singing one of my favorite Katy Perry songs? Maybe not.
I unlock the door and ran to her, grabbing her hand, leading her upstairs to my room so she doesn't wake my mom. I close my room door and set her on my bed. She starts to laugh for no apparent reason.
I sigh, "Why are you drunk?"
She reaches out for my hand and pulls me beside her on my bed. "It's September 1st, that's why." She slurred.
My whole mood and smile dropped. She's drinking because of Alison. "Do you still have feelings for Ali?" I think I died a little inside just asking that.
She stares at me blankly and takes my hand, "Han.."
"Do you?" I slide my hand away from hers
"I came here singing your favorite Katy Perry song and you're asking me if I have feelings for someone else that is dead?" She whines. Her response made me smile that she is able to say that, intoxicated. I press my lips against hers and she kisses back, with a taste of alcohol. She sits up and tries making her way to straddle my lap, before I stopped her.
"Um, no. You're drunk" I said, with my head against my pillows.
"And you're beautiful," She said swiftly, "And when I wake up tomorrow sober, you'll still be beautiful"
"I can't believe I'm going to say this," I say, "We're going to wait, remember?"
"But I'm in the.. Mood" She said and bites her lip down, then captures my neck with her lips.
I stand up away from her and my bed, then set the pillows comfortable for Emily's head. I tuck her in with a blanket over her and I sit on the edge of the bed. I gaze at her and softly said, "Goodnight, Emily"
"Goodnight, baby" She said then closes her eyes to fall asleep.
"Maybe a little bit drunk" She said.
I slide the window closed and make my way down stairs. I open the front door and stand there. She walks over to me and said, "Come with me"
"Emily, it's late. Go home" I roll my eyes.
"Hanna come on," She puts on a offering smile and reaches her hand out. What is she doing? Why is she here this late? Those thoughts roam in my head. Instead of taking her hand, I stand there with my arms crossed.
"Okay," She sighs, "I really hate the awkward tension I feel. And maybe we should actually work on being friends to move past that" She shrugs and her hands falls to her sides.
"Em, I just got back. Besides, time will move past it" I said.
"I know time will," She said, "But I'm just speeding time up" Her lips curve into a smile. Probably the type of smile that gave me some type of nervousness with her a long time ago.
And it still does.
"You aren't going to leave, unless I come with you, huh?"
"You know it." She said as she reaches out her hand again.
I reach out for her hand, and once we touched, I swear I felt countless tingles going down my spine. "Where are we going?" I ask her as she guides me towards her car.
She turns around and her smile grows wide and she says..
Sorry I skipped through a lot on this chapter! And I'm also sorry for making you guys wait so long! If you'd like you could review a suggestion on where Emily is taking Hanna, and then I'll write a flashback for it and stuff :D Otherwise I'll just think of something myself.
Note: Flashbacks aren't all in order from Hanna and Emily's relationship from the beginning to end before Hanna left (most are though)
Leave a review! I really hope you guys enjoyed!
