I put a conversation of Hannah and her uncle talking, now I'm satisfied!

Chapter 25: Damn it all

Hannah:

The entire walk home I cried, he dumped me. He couldn't be strong for us or show that we are great together, were great together. Arriving home I had to hush my muffles of cries, coming inside and ignoring my uncle when asked me what was wrong. I slammed the door behind me as I entered my room, flopped on my stomach on the mattress and bawled until my vision was blurred.

The entire weekend I stayed in bed: kleenex tissues, ice cream, chip bags and sad music surrounded me as I wallowed in pity. The only time I left is when I went to the kitchen for food. Uncle Rob kept asking if I was ok, I nodded yes but still dragged my feet upstairs Linda and Edward called but I didn't feel like talking to anyone and explaining that my boyfriend that they didn't know about broke up with me. Louis texted if he wanted to come over, I told him that I wanted to be alone for this weekend and work on my English project. Damn it all, Charlie and I are partners. How am I supposed to do this, especially that we have to act out a skit that is our favorite chapter? My eyes were so sore and itchy like someone threw a bag of sand at me. After washing my face to get the burning sensation out of my eyes and try to look less depressed I headed downstairs for dinner. It was really quiet when we were eating, usually me and my uncle sparked up sporadic conversation but this time I was closed mouthed. "Boy troubles?" my uncle asked breaking the silence.

"Something like that," I said shaking my head while eating my pasta.

"I know I'm your uncle and you don't want to tell me about your life, but I'm not as lame as you think," he joked and I couldn't help but laugh. He was right; I couldn't even talk to my parents about my social life. The time I told both of them about the first boy I dated in middle school, she liked him but my dad followed us like a CIA agent when we had dates. I kept it really vague about boys from now on.

"It's just this guy that I really like, I mean he says that he likes me too but his actions confuse me."

"Maybe he's not ready to express them yet ."

"It wouldn't be a problem but he's told me how he feels." The corners of my mouth actually turned up since the past day and a half. "He told me that I was the one for him but he doesn't like PDA." More like hiding me, but I had to stop from say more.

"Then maybe he's more private with you, give him more time." I thought about what he just said, nodding in agreement, but it still hurts that he ended it without trying.

"Thanks uncle," I smiled.

"No problem kiddo, but no sex," he warned.

"Oh, my gosh you're worse than dad," I groaned, he chuckled at my discomfort. I laughed as well and we continued eating.

I went to bed in an okay mood, but I dreaded Monday morning because I didn't want to see him. I wanted to hide from the world, I could probably search for ways to create a homemade bunker outside of town. I would stock up on plenty of oranges, cucumbers, pudding, water and gummy worms.

Shutting my locker I started making my way to class when I heard my name being called, turning around as Linda sped walked behind me. "What happened to you this weekend? I called," she asked in a worried voice.

"Oh, I forgot to charge my phone. Sorry," I said with a shrug.

"The whole weekend?" She asked suspicious.

"No, after it was charged it began to glitch and I had to keep taking out the battery for it to work," I lied smoothly to her.

"How many times did you drop it on the floor?"

"Only twice this time."

"I thought you were with Louis, " she wiggled her eyebrows at me.

I shook my head, "no. He wanted to hang out but I said no."

"He's your boy, he should be with you," When she said that, I wanted to cry again because all I could think about was Charlie.

I held my tears and straightened my posture so Linda wouldn't get suspicious again and looked away, "see you in class," I told her and walked away.

Chemistry was all about the periodic table and to experiment on different types of gases. No dangerous ones so nothing blew up, thank God. When it ended, I gathered my things heading to my next class, History. I felt an arm around my shoulder, thinking it was Eddie but it's Louis. I sighed a little dejectedly but gave him a tight smile..

"How come you haven't answered any of my calls or texts?" he asked concern but his tone was a bit accusatory.

"Sorry, busy with stuff and didn't feel like socializing with anyone," I told him with a shrug.

"Why?"

"Just stuff Louis, can we drop it?" I spoke in irritation as we walked side by side, but I felt guilty when I glanced at the frown on his face. "I'm sorry, it's just-"

"Charlie? Did you and him have a fight?" I haven't told him that me and him broke up yet, I wanted to keep that to myself since he only knew.

"Something like that," I shrugged again.

"Well don't let that get you down okay?" He gave me a grin, I melted a little. Louis is such a nice guy, maybe I could really date-

"Hey guys, I heard that Charlie's got a new girl." Linda said excited when she ran in front of us. I didn't believe it for one second, it had to be a rumor.

"How do you know that it's not just a rumor?" I frowned, he couldn't move on so quickly.

"I saw him and her behind the school making out like two cats in heat." What?! Why would he do that to me? No, he wouldn't do that at all, hiding my composure I took in a deep breath to conceal my rage.

"There they are." She pointed behind us, me and Louis turned to the scene: Charlie and the girl he had his arm around his shoulder walking like the it couple, Madeline. WTF!
