He, Who Saved Me

Chapter 3

HANNAH'S POV

So, after saying goodbye to Connor, I was looking for Brandon. I tried each room in the 9th grade hall. I couldn't find him. Just then I saw him outside sitting underneath a tree on the field. I walked over to him, nervous as hell. I wonder what he was going to say to me.

"Uh...Hey.." I said awkwardly.

"Hey, Hannah" Brandon replied.

"Can I sit down? We need to talk" I asked, hoping he'd say, yes.

"Yeah, sure" He said, looking away from me.

"So, uh, I didn't know, uh, that you felt that way. I mean I never knew you liked me" I said.

"Oh, uh, yeah... I shouldn't really be mad at you... I mean you're not even my girlfriend or anything" He said, trying not to make eye contact with me.

"I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, Brandon. It's just that Connor's an amazing guy, he gets me, a lot but so do you. He complimented me and then we kissed. If you really liked me, then why didn't you tell me before anything else happened?" I said, looking straight at him.

"Because I didn't know if you liked me back or not. I was scared Hannah." He replied, his voice sounding like he was about to shed a tear.

"Honestly, you could have asked Lesley.. She would have told you, even though I had told her not to tell a single person" I said.

"Well, I don't know, I really like you Hannah, I've always did" He said.

"Same here but I can't choose you and Connor at the same time" I explained to him.

"Seriously, Hannah? You don't know who to choose? So you're not going to choose someone you've known since 5th grade but you're going to choose some guy you've only known for a week?" Brandon said, yelling a bit at me.

"Okay, what the actual fuck is wrong with you? It's my fucking decision, not yours. You can't help me choose. I repeat again, IT IS MY OWN DECISION, Brandon." I said yelling at him.

"You're so stupid. I can't believe you're practically thinking about who to choose! I'll give you 3 days to think about it, when you decide who, text me! The dude even looks like a total douchebag if you ask me!" Brandon said, and walking away.

"Shut the fuck up! I'm going to choose and I'm going to tell you whenever I want. You can't decide shit for me, I'm not your girlfriend!" I said, so mad at him at the moment.

"Yeah, but not yet!" Brandon said.

"Oh hell to the fucking no. Leave. Go home UGH!" I said dialing my mom's number.

After 2 minutes my mom and I arrived at my house.

I went straight up to my bedroom and decided to text Jc. I need to talk to someone I could trust and talk to about my problems. I'm not in the mood to talk to Lesley & Connor especially Brandon.

Me: Hey, Jc. Can I talk to you?

After 2 minutes, Jc replied.

Jc: Hey Hannah, & sure, what's up?

Me: Oh, Uhm, well. It's Connor & Brandon. I really like the both of them. Brandon was my long time crush & I never really knew he felt the same way. But ever since I met Connor, Lesley was in love with him, but Connor & I got really close but today after school when he & I had art club, we had a moment & we kissed.

I told him all what happened. 

Jc: Wow, a love triangle. Okay, well tbh, I don't know what to do. Honestly, Brandon sounds like a dickhead, he definitely can't decide who you're supposed to choose. Just follow your heart. Talk to Connor & even Brandon. IRL or even text. Just talk to them.
