chapter 36

Ryan’s POVAfter the drama that just unfolded in front of me made me feel strange about Hanna. I knew her before and she had no issues related to Angel, so I decided to talk to her about it later.I saw Angel feeling embarrassed and standing alone so I go and ask Angel, “Hey! Are you okay?”“Yeah, I’m fine. I don’t know what came over me, it’s just I hate seeing anyone being bullied by Viki… ugh anyways forget it, let’s enjoy that party.”“Hmm, yeah.” I said yet I didn’t believe if she was fine, I knew she wasn’t. But I had to oblige and we went towards where everyone were standing and enjoying.Meanwhile Mia and Lucas were dancing and while they were talking too.When we all heard…“Pretending not to love you was the hardest thing I’ve ever done… To be honest I wanted to run and embrace you that day itself… call you mine and make you mine… but I tried controlling myself and now I’m finally done controlling myself. I’m glad to call you mine now.” Said Lucas.Hearing his words she got emotional and kissed him and so did he. I was so happy to see them like this. I cheered and clapped for them, whereas others were just shocked to see me cheering and they kissing.I look towards others and Lucas and Mia joined us too where we were standing.“Guys! Meet my girlfriend – Mia” said Lucas and I smiled at the new couple.“And meet my new boyfriend – Lucas” said Mia happily and they both kiss.Everyone had still not come out of the shock.“GUYS!!!” I said bringing them back to the Earth.They all yet being shocked and confused, smile at the couple and we all hug each other.“When did this happen? How did this happen?” asked Zach while hugging Lucas.“Guys! I was talking to her the other day… and it’s been a while…” said Lucas while looking and smiling towards Mia.“Well I was talking to him the other day, but it’s been a while for me… but he has had a crush towards me since before.” Said Mia.“That’s true” I said.All looked at me, and looked confused as to why I wasn’t confused.I see at their expressions but before I could say anything Angel asked, “Did you know about them from earlier?”“No, it’s just been few days, since Lucas spoke to me.” I say and think of the time when Lucas wanted to talk to me on the day when all the guys came to my house.FLASHBACK –“Hey! I actually wanted to ask you about something” said Lucas.“Yeah, go ahead man!” I say“It’s about Mia and me.” He says.I look confused.“I actually wanted to know if you would be comfortable if I date Mia?” he asks.Without a second thought I was so happy and said, “Of course man, if you both really have feelings for each other, then you both should go ahead. Anyways she deserves a guy like you who loves her… unlike a person whom it’s just one sided.”We both smile and hug.“So, I guess I do know now who you were texting and also your secret crush, huh?” I say.He blushes and says, “Hopefully she will soon be my girlfriend too.”I smile and say, “Well, I’m waiting for that day to come soon…”We smile and continue with our day.FLASHBACK ENDS“Hey man! I’m glad that day arrived soon.” I said.They smile and we all did too.We all then continue enjoying and partying around.After a while I see Hanna going somewhere while being on a call and I decide to follow her and ask her about her behavior.It was a small passage.She finishes her call and turns around to see me standing in front of her now.“Hey Ryan, I knew you couldn’t resist me after the wink, but I didn’t know you would be coming after me so quickly.” Said Hanna.I feel irritated by what she just said… yet I keep my cool and say, “What’s the equation between you and Angel?”“Oooohhh equation… I see… shouldn’t you be asking a different question?” said Hanna.“What is that?” I ask.“What’s the chemistry between us?” she replies.“There is nothing between us.” I say sternly.She laughs and says, “I highly doubt that.”“Okay seriously cut the crap, and tell me what did Angel do to you for which you behaved like that towards her?” I ask“Why do you care?” she asksAnd that was right, I did care about her but no one knew about this… and I couldn’t tell her about my feelings…“Because she is…” before I could complete she interrupts me…“Oh yes, because you’re her best friend… but not boyfriend right? So why bother, let it be…” Hanna says, and turns and walks away“No, you will have to tell me” I say while quickly holding her wrist.“DON’T” she just looks deadly at me and her wrist and I move back.“Then tell me, I won’t leave until I get my answers.” I say.“Well, then let me fetch you a chair… as you plan to settle in this corridor.” she says this and turns to leave again.“You don’t have to do that… just tell me and I’m out of here.” I say.“Oh but I don’t want you to leave you know.” Hanna says.My patience was running out.“Seriously, I knew you have changed… and that’s great, trust me… but I didn’t know you would turn out to be like this… SERIOUSLY…. JUST TELL ME AND I’M OUT OF HERE.” I say.She just stares at me and takes a deep sigh.“It’s funny how the people who know me the least have most to say… and as far as you are concerned I won’t tell you anything.” Said Hanna and turns again to leave but before I say something she herself turns back to face me.She then says, “And yeah if you want to know something from next time, try to be polite… or else you know the information you are gonna get would also be sustained…. Just like this time…” with an evil grin on her face, showing me that no matter what I do she won’t tell me…She then turns and walks away.I was frustrated by this.I needed to do something and anything find out about Angel and Hanna.Angel was as confused as everyone so she obviously wouldn’t know…. But I knew for a surety that Hanna did.I saw Hanna going towards a room and I decide to go there and try and confront her there.I knew she was a thick skin, but I had to do it.So I follow her and go and stand outside the room.I was about to knock when she suddenly opens the door and my hand knocks her nose.“Oh my gosh! I’m so, so sorry… I was just gonna knock… ugh… wait sit here.” I say when I see that her nose was bleeding and I quickly grabbed a chair that was lying there and made her sit.It was so sudden, but I knew that my knock can’t be that hard… but I quickly grabbed first aid from where she pointed from the room and helped her out.I quickly take a cotton ball and hold it at her nose and she takes it from my hand when our hands touched… I tell her to put her head upwards and lean it against the wall.After few minutes,She looks furiously at me and says, “You still haven’t left your concern for her have you?”‘Huh? Concern about her… does Hanna know about Angel and me?’ I thought to myself.She feels irritated at my absence of answer and understands I guess.“Why do you feel like that towards her even though she feels nothing towards you?” she asks.I was speechless.“I don’t get you at times.” She said.“At times, you don’t need to understand a person, they just fall into your life and things seem perfect… you may not understand one sided love, but I do…” I say.“I don’t understand one sided love??” she looks up and me and stands up and say.She shrugs and says, “Anyways, thanks for the bleed and the help.”She then walks past me for leaving.“Are you still not gonna tell me about it?” I say.She stops.I turn to look towards her.Although she had her back towards me, there was a mirror all over the place so I could so she had her evil grin.She looks down and chuckles and then turns towards me with a smile.She walks towards me and she puts her arms around my neck and looked straight into my eyes, as though she was teasing me.“Alright!” she says and then whispers something in my ear. Hey guys!!!So finally everyone knows about Lucas and Mia and now they are officially a couple… A crazy drama has uncovered between Hanna and Ryan… what will happen now???
