My Teen Love

Chapter 10

"The people are talking
The people are saying
that you have been
playing my heart
Like a grand piano...
Play on. play on.. play on..."
'Grand piano by Nicki Minaj '

"What's your relationship with Mark? I asked Hannah. She was beginning to piss me off right now. It's been over a week now since our graduation, we speak on phone and have hang outs and she still hadn't told me anything about what happened during the after party when she vanished suddenly for a while. I had seen her with Mark making out which was a very big shock and till now she hadn't made mention of it. Even when I cunningly try asking her about any gist or if there was any guy she had an eye on for now it was always "ugh!! All the guys around suck, probably when we're in high school I might find someone that catches my fancy". But you do not just go about kissing some random guy if there is nothing.

"Mark!! Why?? What makes you ask" Hannah replied looking away. "Did you hear something?

"Oh! That's how it's gonna be uhn!! We start hiding shiit from each other right... well nobody told me anything, I saw everything... the whole kissing and yet you pretend there is nothing going on between the two of you or should I say there is always nothing going on between you and any guy at all yh!!"

"It's not what you think Ella " she started trying to give stupid excuses

"Then it's what uhn! Tell me, I yelled. It's been over a f@cking week and you haven't told me anything and yet you call me your best friend. How am I sure it's just him" I said with an angry laugh, my voice echoing round the room. I was loosing it now and I didn't like moments like this. I hate it when I'm angry with her and begin to yell but I couldn't just help myself but sometimes she just got on my nerves. We are best friends for crying out loud. Even if she pretends to every other person she is not to pretend to me.it was pretty sick. I inhaled deeply and exhaled back to calm myself down.

"Ok, Im sorry I swear... I didn't mean to hide anything from you. I was not just sure. I didn't know if I had anything for him. It just happened. I swear I didn't know how we started kissing I just realized how carried away I was when he broke off . I was embarrassed by the whole stuff and I regretted it immediately. I felt stupid immediately and I also thought you would think of me as stupid because of my actions " she started ranting on and on and I immediately felt bad for yelling at her.

"It's okay I said but next time don't hide anything. So wait, what made you regret you kissing him? The fact that you are not yet sure of your feelings or what? " I asked

"It's not just that" she replied me staring down at her feet. " He just used me. It was a bet."

"Wtf!! So he just used you to play games?? So how did you find out that he wasn't serious about the stuff.

"I found out immediately after we kissed. He was like thank you for helping me win and then with a wink he left to a table where 3 other guys were seated and he got his money after being congratulated. That's why I didn't say anything about it earlier.

"Oh! That's it right... good for him, its game time. Game on!! We would meet in high school". I said with a smirk on my face.

"What do you plan on doing? You can't do anything to him" she said, a little bit shocked at my reaction

"He played a game and we are going to play ours. It's simple " I said

"So what's the plan " Hannah asked

"Just wait and see. It's not going to happen anytime soon. Probably by the end of the year."

Just as we finished talking Peter came in.
