Derek's P.O.VI'm quite relaxed, lying down on the ground. I'm gazing up into the sky, watching clouds go by. I do notice the numbness surrounding me, but I ignore it since it's helping me block out the...pain?
Something's wrong.
I lift my head up of the grass and survey the hill that I was resting on.
Something was missing.
I couldn't put my finger on it, but the empty space that this 'something' left was making me uncomfortable. I sighed and lowered my head onto the ground. A funny shaped cloud floated by, causing me to smile.
I can't remember the last time I did smile actually...
What am I missing?! Come on, think you idiot! It's...it's...erm....
....a person?
Yes! But who would I be missing? Who's that important that is nearly causing me to get off this hill and race around looking for...
...her...
A her? Really? Well, I am a boy...aren't I? Could it be a girlfriend? I can hear my laugh resonate between the other hills around. Me? A girlfriend? Why is that so hard to believe?
It isn't though...
Oh my God. I do have a girlfriend! How could I forget Lilly?
No, that doesn't sound right.
Sarah?
Jessica?
Hazel? No, hold on. That was close. How comes?
Hailey...
Heather...
....Hagrid... Why would I even think that? Sigh...
Hattie?
.
.
H-Hannah?
Hannah. Yes! Hannah! Hanna..Han. My Hannah. Beautiful, and funny and smart and...cute? Must be.
But where is she? I miss her. I'm getting cold. She needs to help me.
Hannah!
I try and get up. My legs won't move. C'mon! I'm sweating with effort.
"Derek?"
I stop. I quickly glance around, but I can't find anything, see anyone...
" Is that you Derek?" the faceless voice asks.
" Erm. Yes. I think." I feel stupid, talking to just a voice. "Are you Hannah? Can I see you?"
" But I'm...I'm already here. Lying next to you."
I turn my head to my right, then left. She is here. And looks prettier in person. I feel like I'm meeting her for the first time. I'd gasped unconsciously, causing her to giggle.
"What?" I ask She doesn't reply, just shakes her head and shuffles closer, never breaking eye contact.
A minute of silence passes.
" I'm not actually sure what to do" I whisper.
"Say my name for a start" she answers.
