Kissing In Colorado

Kissing In Colorado: MACKROW! [7]

Hanna's Point Of View

I leaned over the bathroom counter, inspecting my body in the mirror. My hair was still damp, but it was better since I dried it with the hand-dryer. I managed to clean out all of the smoothie chunks, which was a good thing.

"Here, let me help you," Mia laughed, leaning over the counter too.

She pulled out some makeup, and she started applying it to my face.

"I feel bad, you're missing your lunch."

"I was already done. Besides, I'd rather help a friend."

I smiled at her comment.

"But, we have to hurry. Lunch was halfway over when your little incident when down. We probably only have like ten minutes left!"

"Alright, let's go!"

We finished the makeup quickly, and we tried to dry my hair, but it refused to dry completely. I pulled my hair up into a pony tail.

"How bad?"

"Gorgeous," Mia smiled.

She pulled me out of the bathroom, and Kale smiled at me.

"Well, you look great for what just happened."

"I'm not sure if that's a compliment.."

"Of course it is," He laughed kissing my cheek.

Mia smiled and waved to us as she ran down the stairs.

"Let's get you to the office," Kale laughed.

I nodded, and we walked down to the office.

"Miss Lanceman, what happened to you?" The principal asked.

The whole story took a while to explain because I started from the very first time I saw Miranda.

"Well, Miranda's going to be suspended. If anything happens, you tell me. You handled this beautifully, and that's why you're not in any trouble. And no more kissing in the hallway."

"I promise," I smiled at him.

"You can go back to class. Tell Kale to come in here, would you? Mrs. Hampton will give you a pass back to class."

I walked out of the office and nodded at Kale.

MEANWHILE,

[kale's point of view]

 

I sat in the ripped up chair outside the principal's office waiting for Hanna. I tapped my foot nervously against the tile flooring as I inspected the walls. I read some of the inspirational posters that covered them. It took a while for Hanna to tell them everything, and it was driving me insane. I wanted to make sure she was alright. I wanted to be in there, sitting next to her, rubbing her back and supporting her. But, that wasn't allowed here. I mean, I guess it wasn't really allowed anywhere.

I tapped my foot to the beat of the soft music playing from Mrs. Hampton's desk. She was the secretary at this school. I had only just learned her name. I mean, how else would I know it? Thank god for those little name plates that sit on desks. Those are life savers!After a while, the door opened, and Hanna stepped out of the door. She nodded at me before making her way over to the desk. Mrs. Hampton wrote her a pass as I disappeared into the office, closing the door behind me.

The walls were painted an ugly green, and the carpet was an even darker green color. Personally, it was just about the ugliest room I've ever seen. The desk in the center was a reddish color, which looked strange in the room. The book shelves in the corner were red too. This man is colorblind! I took a seat in the purple chair across from his blue one. Wow, even more colors.
