Hannah
Brown tired eyes , somehow thick eyebrows , long brown hair falling almost past my back , soft facial features and high cheekbones .
Same features but different girl .
Ever since I came to this town I changed , and when my path crossed his , it only got worse . All I can think about when I look at myself or anyone is him . Everywhere and anywhere , his shadow haunts me punishingly , making sure to sink its pointy fingers in my heart for hurting the man who showed me such care and devotion like I have never known before .
« Ladies . » A greeting voice comes from behind me . I look at the mirror in front of me in the backstage where I and many other students are getting ready for our upcoming performances since the Talent Show day is here . Haze is standing a few inches behind me , his blonde hair shining although the light is kind of dim here , his tattoos peeking from underneath his shirt opened at his chest as he wears his usual smug expression on his face .
« Paget's not here . » I say quickly turning back to adding some more touches to my face .
Haze walks towards me , standing right behind my chair and looking at me through the mirror . « I'm actually here to talk with you .
My heart drops down to my feet as I think of the possibility that Paget might have told him about my secret , she might act like she hates him but I know that her feelings for him are far from that , and love makes people do stupid mistakes , like confining everything to their beloved ones .
« Me ? » I turn around facing him .
« About Paget ... »
I sigh in relief then manage to nod . « What about Paget ? »
He smirks looking down and leaning on the vanity before meeting my gaze again . « She's so stubborn I can't take it no more , you know . »
« I believe if you have tried hard enough , you wouldn't have found her that stubborn . » I answer stoically. They were kids when they fell in love and he made her all those promises a girl like Paget would believe and cherish with all her heart , then one day he leaves unannounced and even when he comes back he acts as though they are meeting for the first time over again , then only now after years , he remembers her and wants to make things right .
He folds his arms across his chest as his jaw tightens . « Paget is very precious to me , Hannah . My actions might make you and everyone else doubt it but I only care to prove it to her , and I was hoping I could get some of your help . »
I raise an eyebrow impressed .
Haze Lambert is a playboy and typical bad boy every teenage girl likes to read and fantasize about . Even now as he stands here talking to me , girls giggle and laugh as they walk beside him , like damn groupies attempting to catch the attention of their favorite singer .
« You want me to play matchmaker with you two ? »
He shakes his head once. « Nope , just talk to her about me , say some few sweet words and try to get her to give me another chance . »
If I didn't know any better I would think the boy is blushing . « Why me though ? Iker has been her friend way before me and he's your brother . »
Haze narrows his eyes at my words . « He's a boy . » He leans down closer, pinching his nose and looking around before settling his eyes back on me . « See , I happen not to like her to be around guys pretty much you know , even if it's my brother . »
I grin and look away . Poor Iker always hated by the others for being friendly and kind . I remember Kane's jealousy and ... my small grin fades away . I stand up tall in front of Haze .
