Master Plan

Chapter 2 - Hanna's POV

For the past 3 weeks, I have put my plan into motion. The girls were starting to get suspicious about my intentions and I knew that I needed to implement phase 2 any time now.

Every day was the same, I will dress provocative, and flirt as much as I could with Emily, I could see that Emily was confused to say the best. Every girl in our little group was reacting differently; Emily was confused but seems into it. Spencer was trying to determine what was happening inside my brain. Aria was acting as if a great love story was developing in front of her, which she may be right. Alison, well she just dreamed that I was hit by a bus, or fall on a hole or simply disappeared.

My routine was simple, report the previous day activities to my allied; get some coffee from the Brew; get to Emily's house bright and early; ride with Emily to pick up Alison (Ugh); arrived at school and flirt with Emily. However, the cosmic switch needed to happen and it needed to happen fast.

Today was Wednesday and it feels like the right day. I consulted with the Allied and got a large Americano for Emily. When I got to her house, Ms. Field opened the door "Morning Hanna, I see you got some breakfast come in, come in".

H: "Good Morning Ms. Field, you are right and as usual here you have your coffee."

"Thank you, sweetheart, Emmy is upstairs, go right up"

H: "Thank you"

I walked upstairs and said Good Morning to Emily while seating at her window seat. I was fine a moment ago but right now all I could feel was nervousness. What if this didn't turn out as I expected? What if I pushed too far? What if I lost her? While my mind was going miles per hour Emily notices that I was not right. She had been calling me for a while now and as she didn't get a response she sat in front of me and placed her hand carefully in mine.

E: "Hey Han, everything all right you seem distracted. I have been calling you for a while now"

H: "Yes, sorry what were you saying?" I asked while I slowly caress her hand with my thumb.

E: "I said that you look extremely great today. I mean, you have always looked great.... Yeah, but the last couple of week, whoa.... I... I mean, you have put like an extra effort... not that you looked bad before or anything, but yeah and today...just WOW!" she says mumbling while she rubs the back of her head with the other hand.

I can only chuckle and continue to draw patterns on her knuckles. I move a little closer and I can hear she takes a deep breath. That is the confirmation that I needed.

H: "Thank you, I guess I will take that as a compliment."

E: "YES, yes it was a compliment, Spencer thinks that lately you been trying to impress someone and I definitely think that you will get this guys attention"

H: "You really think that?"

E: "100% sure of that," she says while standing up to get her backpack.

H: "Hey Em, can I ask you something?" I ask not moving from where I was seating.

E: "Sure Han, you know you can ask me anything."

H: "The truth is that I have wanted to impress someone, enough to ask this person out. But, I'm not sure that this person will say yes. "

Emily turns around and looks at me with the most sympathetic smile that I have ever seen.

E: "Han, anyone worth it will be more than happy to go out with you. This guy will be the luckiest guys at RHS if he gets to take you on a date"

H: "You mean that?"
