Funeral pt 1

We got into a big room. Full of wooden benches. I looked around me. Candles and photo's of Caleb were everywhere. Everyone sat down.
A man in a black suit came over to me and my friends. He showed us our seats in the front. In front of us was a little stage. I sat down next to Spencer on my left and Aria on my right. Spencer and I didn't exchange one word since the night in the hospital.

"Where have you been the past few days?" I whispered, since it was completely silent in the room.
"I was busy organizing the funeral, Hanna." She whispered back.
The last time me and Spencer spoke one on one was a little less than three months ago. One of the worst conversations I had ever had. She's my best friend and I want the best for her, but that night I said something to her that I shouldn't have, even though it made her happy. I thought I was doing the right thing. I remember tearing up like crazy and Spencer still thought I was happy for her.
'I have no issue with Spencer and Caleb' became a sentence that was a big part of my life from that moment on.
I had to convince myself of it over and over again though.
I never thought they would actually start dating. The thought of it making me furious.
Me and Spencer weren't really close anymore, or actually not at all. Everytime we hung out there were other people and there always was some weird tension.
"What even happened?" I asked Spencer, not the best timing but I just had to know. She was the only one there with him that night.
She was obviously shocked by my question.
"Tell me." I say out loud this time, you could hear the anger in my voice.
Emily looks our way.
"Han, what's going on?" She asks when she sees my face reddening with anger.
Spencer just stares in front of her without saying anything.
Before I can say something else, the man in the black suit appears on the stage.
I realize again that I'm at Caleb's funeral and put my mind to it.
"Hello everyone," the man starts,
"We are gathered here today to say goodbye to Caleb Rivers, a son, a friend, a lover, someone our world lost too early. Today we are here to honor him and to say our last thank you's and goodbyes. We will be starting with Toby Cavanaugh, after that Aria Montgomery is doing a performance, followed by Spencer Hastings.
In between we will take minutes of silence and listen some songs Caleb loved. At the end we will be going outside to say goodbye to Caleb's body.

"So eh.. So you organised this all?" I whispered to Spencer when the man stopped talking.
"Yeah"
"I, I don't know if I'm like,...okay with that.." I whisper, confused by my sudden hate towards Spencer and the jealousy and anger that's currently spread trough my body.
"Why not?! I'm his girlfriend Hanna!" She snaps at me, immediately regreting it.
"I'm sorry."
I don't respond.
I look at the stage where Toby is getting ready to talk.
I see tears butning in his eyes and I know it won't take long until he's crying.
I'm so mad right now.
I turn my head away from Spencer. I feel her eyes watching me.
I try to calm down because this is not what Caleb would've wanted.

I don't have to be jealous of Spencer though, he loves me more, he always loves me more.

That's just how it is.
Was.

Next chapters will probably be called like : Toby or: Aria or whatever, because those will be mostly about their speeches or performances at Calebs funeral.
