" Brenda no I have to study and I have a shift at the dinner this evening " I said arranging my books in my book bag
'' please Hannah we will only spend two hours then we will be back for you to study and forget the dinner I already talked to jack '' Brenda begged jumping
"no you know I need the money, I can't take a day off "
"Jack is giving us a pay free day " I looked at Brenda then my books,i only have two more books to read....so why not
"okay but we are only saying for two hours if not one "she smiled jumping up and down then she hugged me.
"yes only two hours, I will be back by seven " she ran out of my apartment jumping.
"i need new friends " I said falling on my bed
let me properly introduce myself. my name is Hannah Elizabeth Regan, I am 19 years old I live in Stratford in my own apartment while my parents and silblings live in Ireland. you are properbly wondering why I live so far away from my parents at such a young age. so I just finished a-levels at Into queen's university Belfast in north Ireland and I decided to take a year off to discover myself , so I decided to come here to Stratford and my parents don't support me because they believe education is more important than any other thing in the world. don't get me wrong education is important but......sometime I like to let loose. so I have to work my ass off to support my self . I got here two months ago , it was kind of hard not knowing any body and I had to find a cheap apartment with free wifi and a decent job but after two weeks I meet Brenda and she helped me to get the apartment and the job at jack's diner.
I rolled to look at the table clock 6:34 "shit" I jumped up and ran to the bathroom , I stripped and jumped into the shower, after my shower I brushed my teeth, I walked over to my clothes that couldn't fit into the small closet this apartment had to offer. I wore matching black underwear , a black half top, high waisted ripped jeans and my favorite black boot ( out fit in the media ). I packed my hair into a messy bun , I used mascara and lip gloss. I looked at my self in the mirror behind the bathroom door "okay " I whispered with a thumps up smiling then my phone started ringing
I picked up my phone , answering without checking the caller Id "hello" I sang arranging my things into a bag
"hi baby" oh I totally forgot, that's Cameron my boyfriend. I met him at the diner one month after being here and from there we hit it off . he is in university at the moment, he is two years older than me
"hey honey"
"what are you doing today"
"i am going out with Brenda, we were to leave about " I checked the time "45 minutes ago but she is late like always. you?"
"i am going for the lesson I missed the other day" Cameron is like one of my friend's back home Haley .he literally lives in the library, the reason why he missed a class was because he wanted to take me out on a special date . that day I was quite shocked when he showed up at my apartment.
"babe I have to go. talk to you later "
"i love you " I hung up the phone and sighed, Cameron started saying the L word last week but I think its too soon so I don't say it back.
"you better be ready " Brenda shouted walking into my room
"what are you talking about, you are 50 minutes late "
" I know I know but I had to look good , First party in months " she paused and looked at me " what's wrong "
" Cameron " I signed
" he said it again "
" yes "
" did you say it back "
" no " I signed " i don't know how I feel any more, he keeps saying he loves me but I don't know "
" Hannah listen to your heart, what does it tell you "
" it saying i need to get up from this chair and go and have fun tonight "
" your heart as spoken, now let's roll " she pulled me up laughing
" let's go party " I turned off all the lights and locked up " you drive since you know where we are going to " I torsed her the key to my rental.
It only took about 40 minutes to get to the party. The house was quite big, red brick walls, a big garden with a fountain in the middle.
" it's big " Brenda whispered parking the car
" I know.... Thank God we found a parking Space" we got down " wait who owns the house "
" I don't know some new guy " we walked into the house. The party was already in full swing, people dancing, grinding. I looked around the house. The house was even more beautiful inside than the outside. Some one passed me a drink which I dropped on a near by table .
" cute boy, I'll be right back " before I could say anything she was gone leaving me all alone. Walked to a white couch in the corner and sat down, playing on my phone .
" hi there " I looked up from the message I just got from my mum asking how I was and what I was doing .
" hi " I sayed to the brown haired boy standing over me
" is this sit taken " he asked pointing to the empty space beside me
" no " I said then went back to replying my mum
" i am Benson, Benson Gibson " I turned to him and looked at his outstretched have then his smiling face
" Hannah , Hannah Regan " I shoke his have with a smile of my own
" let me guess ....your friend left you " he asked sipping from his solo cup
" guessed right " I chucked
" same. I actually just got here two days ago with my friend, we are here on long vication"
" do you have anyone to show you around " I asked
" no "
" I can, I know I just got here too like two months ago but I know some really fun places and I can get my friend to help "
" yeah that sounds amazing " he wrote something down on the paper he found in his pocket " here my number, call me when you have time "
" sure but I have one question "
" yeah ask away "
" if you just got here two days ago how did you know about this party so fast "
" my friend is a convivial fellow " he said laughing, I couldn't help but join in
" I have to go , I just spotted my friend " he stood up and started walking away " it was really nice to meet you Hannah " he turned and looked at me with a smile
" it was really nice to meet you too " .
