07 ➳ Are You Stoned?

It was a boring good for nothing Sunday. No one has been home all weekend as my father has been stuck at the office trying to help the town over on a missing persons case and Sammy he's been apparently catching up with an old friend.

I couldn't help but think about my friends back at Green Meadow high. Well I mean I only had one real friend that I would talk to at school and occasionally outside of school, the others on the other hand were more just people Hanna and I would sit with at lunch.

Hanna Anderson was plan, if I'm being honest. She had long curly dark brown hair which looked almost black, she had a pale complexion and she's thin not a single curve to her body.

She was plan and boring but she was still my friend, she would let me come over to house occasionally and share her food with me at lunch when my mother hadn't bought anything. She would always talk about boys even though not many gave her a second look they more or so looked at me when we walked down the hall.

Well that is if they weren't scared of the infamous Boston Kain.

Boston had pretty much made it clear to the whole male student body of Green Meadow High that if any male looks, touches or even breathes in my direction they will be extremely sorry. I remember one-time Mike Mckinnon had grew the balls to come and sit with Hanna and I in the cafeteria, tried to ask me out to diner but Boston had gotten up from his table and beat the crap out of him before Mike could even register what was happening.

Mike ended up in the hospital for a few weeks while Boston was only suspended for a few days, all thanks to his dad slipping the school a few hefty amounts of cash.

I knew that Hanna wanted a boyfriend and that she would do anything to have someone that would treat her like Boston treated me. She seemed to fantasize about Boston and I, she would blabber on for hours just mindlessly talking about how one day she wants to have someone look at the way Boston looks at me, have someone hold her hand and kiss her without a care in the world just like Boston did to me, have someone love her as much as Boston undeniably loved me.

If only she knew how wrong she was.

Hanna and I still talk occasionally and we even sometimes call and catch up on each other's lives. She tells me about Green meadow high and how it's just not the same with me not there, she said she even has a boyfriend when I asked her who she told me that I'd never guess and she was right, because I would never have guessed that she would go on to date Mike Mckinnon, she also gives me Boston updates as well they are never really that good, his name always sends shivers down my spine. 

She's knows about some of the reason why I left Pennsylvania but not quite everything that pushed me to leave. She knows that he's obsessive and nothing like she used to think he was.

I'm pulled out of my thoughts as I a loud ping sounds through the empty, quiet house. I looked down at my phone and see that I have a text message from none other than Hanna Anderson.

Hanna – I'll call you in ten.

Eden – Okay sounds great :)

I got up off of my bed and walked over to my window nook, I wrapped the fluffy blanket around me and looked out over at the lake. I couldn't help but look out into it, I wondered if people really did drown and die in there or if they really are just rumors.

Once again, I'm being pulled out of my thoughts buy my phone ringing, I look down at the caller id to see that its Hanna, I instantly tap of the green button that answers her call.
