The Life of Hannah Wilkin

Chapter 6 - remembering

*present day*

'Say goodbye lewi.' What was he doing?
'Goodbye lewi.'
'I love you Wilko.' My heart melted, again.
'L-lewi?' I looked up at him with tears in my eyes.
He smiled. I laughed through crying and threw my arms around his neck as he picked me up.
'I don't believe this!' I nuzzled into his neck.
'Well believe it Han,' he placed me back down on the ground. 'Cause I'm back, for good!' He kissed me passionately. His tongue asking for an entrance and I allowed it.
'Lewi, it's been four years! I thought you'd never come back.'
'I know I haven't visited in four years but I'm here now. For good.' That's the Lewi Morgan I know, and love.
'Good. I'm not loosing you again.' He leaned in for a kiss but I moved my head.
'Why didn't you come back?'
'I-I don't know. I guess I was just really busy trying to make a career in music I forgot about life here. I'm sorry Hannah.' A tear streamed down his face and I wiped it away with my thumb.
'Oh lewi!' I cupped his face in my hands. 'Don't be sorry. Be, happy!'
'But I can't be happy knowing that I left the love of my life alone for four years-'
'But your back now. We're together again.' He smiled and kissed me. I had missed his kisses so much. The day he left, I thought about him everyday after that until I had to accept the fact that he wasn't coming back. It was a heartbreaking and unhappy time but I decided that instead of living in darkness I would live the rest of my life as happily as I could. Like they say, everything happens for a reason!
'You know it wasn't a coincidence that we met at the school.' I looked at him puzzled.
'What do you mean?'
'Well, I knew that you were in teaching school and you wanted to be a primary school teacher. My whole family moved back to England two weeks ago and Macy had to go to school. One of my friends in America said that a good school was Eastbrooke Primary and that a good teacher there was Miss Wilkin. There was a chance that that was you so I took that chance. Macy started school at EastBrooke with you as her teacher and I told my mum I would pick her up just so I could see if it was you or not. I took that chance for us Han.'
Tears streamed down my face, 'You put Macy in a completely unknown school just so you might be able to see me again?' He nodded. 'Oh lewi!' I threw my arms around his neck and his head rested on my shoulder.
'I never forgot about you Wilko.'
'I never forgot about you either lewi.' I kissed him once more.
'If this doesn't make us official then I don't know what will!' He laughed.
'Don't worry. I think we are official.' We smiled at each other and stared into each other's eyes. Oh his eyes! I would be waking up to those everyday!

*two days later*

*BEEP BEEP BEEP*

I turned over and turned my alarm off. Monday. Ugh. I sat up in bed only to be pulled back down by lewi.
'No, stay.' He murmured still half asleep.
'I can't lewi. I have to go teach your sister.'
'Call in sick. It's only Monday.'
'I'm not calling in sick lew. And besides, your meeting the boys today remember?' I wiggled out of his grasp and into the bathroom.
'I remember. But that's not until lunch time.'
'Too bad!' I called from the shower.
'Han?'
'Yeah?'
'What are we going to tell Danny?' I froze. I forgot that we were going to have to tell Danny someday.
'It's been almost two weeks. We can last a little longer without him knowing.'
'I suppose.' I heard him yawn. I laughed and turned the shower on. In and out in ten minutes like normal! I got ready for work and lewi was still in bed.
'Goodbye lewi.' I leaned in for a kiss.
'I don't like the word good bye.'
'Fine. I'll see you later lewi.'
'I'll see you later Wilko.' One last kiss and I left him half asleep. I opened the door and saw a person standing there. Blue skinny jeans, white t shirt and black leather jacket. He wore slip on Vans and his ashy blonde hair was styled into a quiff.
'D-danny, what are you doing here?'
