Pretty Wings (Paul Walker)

Ch. 11

November 9, 2010

Hanna examined herself in the mirror one last time before taking a deep breath and exited her bathroom. Today she was in Atlanta to see her mom after ten years and she wasn't sure how this meeting was going to.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

She looked up at Sal, her best friend since first grade and smiled sadly.

"I have too. I love my dad, but it's certain things he can't teach me."

Sal walked over to her and hugged her tightly, kissing her forehead.

"Let's do this Han."

She smiled and gave him a high five as she stepped out of the hotel room.

"So where exactly are we going?"

"To the Fast Five set," Hanna said.

Sal's eyes nearly bulged out of his head.

"Do you know how big of a deal this is for me?"

Hanna bit her lip and looked out of the window. If she was being completely honest with herself, she knew the real reason why she was so nervous to go on set was because there was a chance that she could run into Paul, she was actually hoping that she would. She'd seen every Fast and The Furious movie and was so proud of everything that Paul had accomplished throughout the years. She had also kept tabs on Paul over the years and was heartbroken to say the least to know that he had a girlfriend that he seemed to be happy with.

"Hanna, are you even listening to me?"

"Huh?"

Sal rolled his eyes and sighed.

"I said I'm super excited that you asked me to come with you. I'm a huge fan of the series. I hope they won't mind me asking for pictures."

"They won't," Hanna said.

"Awesome sauce," Sal said as he took a left at a stoplight.

Paul, Tyrese, and Vin shared a laugh after a scene was complete.

"I can't believe that this fool said something like that," Paul said wiping tears from his eyes.

"Hey man when in doubt adlib."

"And that you did my friend," Vin said watching as a young woman stopped to talk to the director.

"Who is that," Paul asked squinting his eyes as if that was going to help him get a better glimpse of the person.

"I don't know but whoever she is needs to stop playing and become Mrs. Gibson," Tyrese said.

"Didn't your divorce just get finalized?"

"I'm always looking for love, Tyrese said smirking.

Vin let out a soft chuckle as he realized who the young woman was.

"What's so funny?"

"That's Hanna," Vin said in a matter of fact tone.

Paul whipped his head around and placed a hand over his eyes hoping that he would see what Vin was seeing but he couldn't.

"Who the hell is Hanna and how do you two know her but been holding out on me?"

The young woman motioned for a man to come with her and he did so with a giddy smile. Paul felt a surge of jealousy rush through him. Could this really be Hanna?
