Hannah Squared

Chapter 4

-------IF YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT THE OUTFITS ARE GO TO MY POLYVORE, hbutcher, ILL TRY TO GET THEM ON HERE------

I woke up the next day around 11. I crawl out of bed and go into the bathroom, and turn on the water for a shower. I get in and stand under the steaming water. I always take long showers; half the time I’m just standing there. I like to think about things while here, it seems that I always have my best thoughts while in the bathroom. I know it’s weird, but it’s just how I roll.

Once I get out, I check the temperature outside, because I don’t feel like being lazy today, which is very rare. I want to go out and shop or do something with Hannah. It was around 23 degrees Celsius, which made me do a little dance. And it’s sunny! This happens like once in a blue moon in London. Seriously.

I decided to wear a pair of shorts with a blue London flag sweater, and white TOMS. I braided my hair to the side and wore a Fedora over it because any type of hat rocks. I had a brown satchel over my shoulder, and put my sunnies in it.

I walked out of my bedroom and was happy to see that Cheese was awake and sitting at the counter eating her favorite cereal, frosted flakes. I walked over and grabbed a bowl and took the box from her and poured some for myself.

“Morning,” I said to her. “Nice weather today, I was thinking we could go out and do something?” I asked her.

“Whoa, hold on. Hannah Sterling is suggesting we go out and do something that requires physical activity? Someone mark it down in the books,” Cheese said.

“Oh shut up. I’m not lazy all the time,” I said.

“Please. I had to drag you out of your bed for years,” she chuckled.

“Okay, you got me there. But anyways I wanna walk around town and go shopping. I need some clothes,” I said trying to get to the point.

“Sure. Just let me go change,” She finished her bowl and went to go change.

My legs are so tired. And my hands. And arms. We were on our way back to our flat, after walking around and shopping for at least five hours. I had at least twelve bags in my hands, and each weighed a ton. We should’ve brought my car. This would be much less painful if we had.

“Thank god, we’re a block away,” I sighed.

“You’re the one who wanted to do this, you should’ve known what you were signing yourself up for,” Cheese said back to me.

“Really Hannah? Really?  You had to say that didn’t you?” I say back with a sarcastic tone.

“Of course I did. I’m just speaking the truth. Gosh. Don’t be such a bitch,” she says. You see, with our friendship, we can call each other any name and won’t get offended at all.

“Thanks. I take that a compliment hun,” I say back. We get up to the door, and I walk in. But something feels weird. The lights are on, and I know for sure that I turned them off before we left. Now I’m freaking out in my mind.

“Cheese, I swear I turned off the lights before we left. I’m scared,” I whisper over to her. I drop my bags, and she does the same.

“Don’t worry, if anyone’s here they have to go through me,” she says and picks up a baseball bat that was near the door.

“Wait, how long has that been there?” I ask her.

“I’m not stupid, I keep it to scare away the people who look like they’re going to rob us,” she says.

“Wow. You really are smart,” I say obviously being sarcastic. She shushes me and creeps into the living room. I look around and grab a light saber. Hey, you never know when you’ll need one.
