New Girl

Chapter 9

If my life could not get any worse!! Hanna was my cousin!!! Why! Why me? Was life this sick!

Mom came up behind me... "Helen it's so good to see you, and this must be Hanna."

Mom literally pushed me aside so she could hug Hanna.

All this time I didn't say a word because I knew if I did no one would like the words to come out. "Aunt Elizabeth is good  to see you," Hanna replied like she knew her all her life.

After they hugged mom went on to my aunt and uncle. Hanna came in and looked at me. "So I guess you're my cousin in Georgia," she said that made me get the feeling she didn't  like that idea. "Guess I am," I said coldly.

"Ally come meet your aunt!" mom yelled. I pushed pass Hanna and came to meet Aunt Helen. She looked exactly like mom except her features were  softer but you could clearer see they were sisters.

"Ally you have grown so much!" she grabbed me into a hug. I was breathing for air. Finally, after what felt like minutes, she let go and I met her husband or Uncle Stephen. "Ally a pleasure to meet you" he extended his hand.

Formal much? I shook it though just to me nice. Mom was excited and I could see she wasn't tired anymore. "Come on let's eat!" Everyone gathered around the table while mom went to get the lasagna.

"So Ally  I hear you are going to school with Hanna! Did you run into each other before today?" Aunt Helen said. I looked at Hanna and she just giving me a dirty look.

"Um...yes man. Today actually we have I think..." I knew what he had to gather but I wondered if Hanna would answer but she didn't. "Latin together." 

Aunt Helen smiled."Great you two really need to catch up! Are you joining cheerleading? My Hanna here is the best!" I was almost about to laugh. Me in cheerleading. When hell freezes over.

"Umm, noo I actually joined Track." Uncle Stephen nodded his head. "Great. I ran when I was in high school. It's a test of strength and endurance." I nodded my head. "Exactly!" I replied because really that what it was and one of the reasons I loved it.

I could see though the corner of my eye that Hanna did not look happy. She  was just about to say something when mom walked in. "Here is the lasagna! Dig in!"

All through out dinner I  was just thinking if there was anything I could do to Hanna but there was nothing. She was the one with Will and I had nothing. She was winning so far.

I was depressed and mom could see it. "Anything wrong honey?"  looked up, "No nothing, can I be excused?" Mom nodded her head I went outside to get a breath of fresh air.

It was a nice cold night,the perfect weather for a run. I wish I could but Hanna was here.

Maybe I will go later....I didn't have a chance to get Will. I mean Hanna was pretty and she was on the squad....I shook my head .

No Ally,don't  do that to yourself. You are much better than her! I was right outside my room when I heard someone talking. I looked up and it was Hanna. She was on the phone.

"Hi,Will!" Hanna said. She was talking with Will! "Oh, nothing .I am just at my cousin house," she replied back.

Bet she will never say I am her cousin. "No, I am not busy. What do you want to tell me?" I tried to be as quiet as possible so I could hear. Whatever Will said Hanna was getting angry. She was getting red and then she began to cry.

"No Will you can't break up me!Why?Is there someone else?"

My heart skipped a beat as I tuned away from the window and started walking back. I had heard enough. Will just broke up with Hanna!!!Can this actually be happening!

I walked back into the house and sat down on the couch. Mom and Aunt Helen were talking so I just sat down waiting for Hanna. Finally, she walked out all tear-stained. Aunt Helen was the first to get a good look at her.

"Hanna what is wrong?" "I just want to go home" she murmured. Aunt Helen got out of her seat and went over to Helen comforting her. "I am so sorry Elizabeth but I think we have to cut this short."

"Nooo,go. It's okay." Aunt Helen grabbed her purse and Uncle Stephen was already out the door to get the car. I got out of my seat  to  see them off.  "I am so sorry again Elizabeth." Aunt Helen replied. Mom just shook her head. "Go take Hanna home. You can come back another time."

Hanna and Aunt Helen walked out but then Hanna tuned around and came toward me. What was she doing? Hanna was close enough and then she hugged me. I could hear the awws by our  mom. "What are you doing?" I whispered. Hanna whispered back.  "Get ready to die bitch."

________________________________________________________________

After Hanna and Aunt Helen left I got out of my shock. Why did Hanna want to kill me? Oh my gosh! What did Will tell her something? That he liked me!

Crap I am screwed. If he did  then Hanna was going to kill me. Oh,  my head was spinning. "I am going out for a run mom!" I yelled before she could tell me no. I changed into my track suit and started running.

It was a nice quiet night. Slowly my head stopped getting dizzy and I could think. Will broke up with Hanna. Yay  for me.

Hanna wanted to kill me. Not good for me. What do I do know? I didn't exactly hear  say why Will  broke up with her, it might not be because of me.

I sighed...This was just to complicated. I mean Hanna didn't have it in her to kill someone. right?

As all of this was going through my head I ended up at the park. It seemed open and I sat down on the bench.

If  only I was back in Georgia and Natalie  was here. She would totally know what to do, but I was on my own in this one.

I suddenly got really chilly. Maybe I should be heading back. It was getting late. As I got up though something felt wrong .

Like someone was watching me but as I turned around no one was there. Maybe I was just imagining something. I slowly made my way to to the house, but I could hear footsteps following me.

They were getting faster but I saw no one.  I started to run. The person was chasing me and when I looked behind me I tripped on a stick.

My knee busted open. Crap I slowly got up though and everything was quiet. I took a 360 but no one was there .

But then someone grabbed me and everything faded away.
