She looks so perfect- A Tragic Thrills fan fiction

Chapter 15

(Hannah's POV)

"Michael invited me to a party Jayce is having, is it awkward if I go?" I asked while looking through my closet glancing back at Zach sitting on my bed.

"Uh, I suppose not." He was playing with his fingers.

I sat on the edge of the bed, right next to him. "What's on your mind, Mister Porter?" I said in a fake British accent to make Porter sound a bit like Potter. He half smiled.

"I'm just a bit confused about things, that's all."

"Hey, how about we go to the party together!" I wrapped my arm around his shoulders as if I was a huge stud. "How about we just get a couple of beers and hang out here? I don't feel like going out anyway."

I agreed to stay home since I didn't want Zach to feel uncomfortable or lonely. Besides, Jayce and JP have parties all the time. I could miss one.

Zach got the beers as suggested and I got the popcorn and pizza rolls. "Did you pick out a movie?" I ask while taking the pizza rolls out of the oven. "Yep! It's a horror movie!" Zach was smiling widely, holding up the DVD in his hand.

"Ah yes, drunk people watching horror movies we're gonna have a blast!"

We were drunk now, Zach and I were all touchy feely with each other. I stroked his face like a weirdo while gigging. "You need to shave!"

"No I look manly with my beard.." He chuckled while looking into my eyes. I never noticed how beautiful his blue eyes were. They certainly were a lot prettier than mine.

"Hannah can I tell you something?" Zach sighed and broke eye contact, ignoring the gory scene of the horror film right in front of us.

"Sure what is it?" I shoved a pizza roll in my mouth.

"Would it be weird if I said that I like you?" He hasn't made eye contact yet. He was truly uncomfortable with the whole situation.

"No cause I like you too!" The words spilled out of my mouth with no thought or feeling. I was drunk of course I didn't mean it, but did I care? Nope not one bit. I need to move on anyway.

Zach looked at me finally and he stroked my cheek. I was mesmerized by his beautiful blue eyes, how they were staring into mine. Without thinking I pulled his face down so his lips can meet mine, colliding with each other.

He pulled me on to his lap so I was straddling him. Our lips moved in sync, I ran my fingers through his hair. He broke the kiss and moved my hair to the side so that my neck was exposed. Zach attached his lips to my neck, kissing it and then biting it lightly, causing me to let out a quiet moan.

The kiss got more heated and we went to the room. Zach laid me down on the bed and he crawled on top of me, wasting no time to get our clothes off.

I opened my eyes the next morning and felt calm, at peace and...happy. I turned over to Zach to see that he was sleeping with a small smile on his face. I laid my head on his chest and listened to his heart beat. It wasn't long before I fell asleep again due to how calm and relaxing everything was.

"Hannah!" I opened my eyes to see people gathered around me at a lunch table. "What?" I reply trying to make sense of this whole situation. "Jake asked you out! What do you say?"

Why am I back in high school? "of course! Jake is so hot and I'm hot, we just fit together perfectly!" The words spilled out of my mouth with no control. I get it, it's one of those dreams where I only observe, not talk.

"That's so true!" Said one of my overly perky 'friends'. Her expression changed from happy to disgust when she spotted Cameron walking by. "Ew."

"Do you guys know where I can find-"

He began to speak before I interrupted him. "Listen, nerd, why don't you take you and your dumb Pokemon cards and play with the rest of the losers!"

Oh my gosh! I was so horrible to him! Cameron rolled his and walked away. "Who was that dweeb?" Jake said while sitting next to me. "I don't know he just came up to us! What makes him think that he can talk to royalty!" I say, almost shouting.

"You're royalty?" Jake questioned while taking a bite of his burger. "No, genius, I'm the queen of the school!"

Across the table I spot Sydney sitting by herself, daydreaming about Cameron. I wanted to go over there and apologize for being so rude to her over the years but I couldn't move, I was paralyzed in the stupid flash back.

I don't care that she hurt me by dating Cameron. I deserved it. I am a horrible person... Zach walked by the table and kissed my forehead saying "Hannah wake up.." His words repeated until the dream slowly faded into darkness. We were back in my room.

"What were you dreaming about?" He asked while stroking my hair.

"Oh, uh....puppies?" He chuckled and got out of bed, exposing his naked body. I couldn't help but cover my eyes. This all felt weird but right at the same time. Maybe I was meant to be with Zach?

I got out of bed as well, trying to cover myself up with the bed sheets. "I'm gonna take a shower...don't look!" I say before dropping the sheets before running to the bathroom and closing the door. "I looked!" Zach said while laughing.

"Jayce you're wasted, let's face it! I'm afraid that you need medication! Not to mention, intervention!" I sing one of the Astro Safari songs in the shower. Michael's new band isn't that bad. Actually their songs are quite catchy and fun.

Zach knocked on the door making me drop the shampoo in my hands. The bottle hit the ground, almost landing on my toes. "GAH!" I exclaimed, hearing Zach laugh from the door. "Zach god damn it!"

"Sorry, I just wanted to tell you that we have a band meeting today. Want to come?"

I rose an eyebrow and picked up the shampoo bottle. "As your girlfriend? Or just your friend..?" Zach was very quiet. I mean what happened last night was it for real? Or just another drunken mistake. Maybe Zach wasn't even that drunk!

"Uh, I'm not sure. We'll talk about it when you're out of the shower."

After my shower I blow dried and straightened my hair to stall this awkward relationship talk with Zach. I wore a simple Spider-Man t-shirt and blue jeans with my black converse. Zach was sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for me. I sat next to him after I finished my simple makeup. "So.." I say.

"Do you like me, Hannah?" He looked at me with his blue eyes.

"I'm not sure..." I said in almost a whisper. I really wasn't sure if I liked him or not. I mean he is attractive but he's not Cameron. Nobody could replace Cameron, but anybody could replace me and that thought kind of sucks. Who knows Hannah, maybe you just need to start over with someone new.

"Oh..." Zach looked down at his hands.

I grabbed them hoping he would look up and make eye contact with me once more. "But let's give this a try, okay?" I said with a smile. He finally looked at me and kissed my lips ever so softly.

"Zannah setting sail!" I say like a dork, making Zach laugh.

We pulled up to Chris's house. Gabe's car was there and so was Cameron's. Maybe Ans got a ride with one of the guys? Zach walked inside while holding my hand. The guys were on the couch and came up to greet us. Everyone except Cameron.

Zach and I sat across Cameron, next to Gabe. "So Zach, anything you want to tell us?" Gabe poked Zach on the arm, Ans and Chris snickered while Cameron rolled his eyes. "We're dating...officially." Zach blushed very lightly. I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder.

Cameron stood up from his seat on the couch, towering over us. "What the hell?!"
