Lemons
August #5 “You Were My New Dream.”
*Hannah’s POV (4:30pm, Friday the 7th)
Sam just dropped me off after having a girls day with her and Susan. I can’t believe she won’t tell us what all is going on with her new apartment. I also can’t believe that I couldn’t keep it together enough for us to see The Notebook which is only our favorite romantic movie. I feel really bad. I don’t want us to never watch it again just because it reminds me of Harry. In fact, a lot of things are gonna remind me of him so I might as well get used to it now.
We set up a very specific time for us to Skype. He said he would stay up as late as he had to so he could talk to me but I won’t let him. We decided on 5pm my time, 11pm his time. At least I got home with enough time to get ready.
I walk in and reunite with my mom, stepdad, and sister. I tell them about my classes and being in England conveniently leaving Harry out of the equation. I know they won’t approve of me dating someone I barely know from across the world.
I don’t talk long and rush to my room to get my laptop set up. I then make sure I look somewhat presentable so Harry doesn’t think I’m a total wreck. I fix my hair as I wait in front of the screen for him to call. I’m so excited, my heart is beating out of my chest. Finally, it’s 5:00 and he calls. With a deep breath I accept it. My beautiful boyfriend appears on my screen.
“Harry!!!” I exclaim. “Hannah!!! I miss you so much already, love!” he says through the screen. “I miss you already too!! You won’t believe what I did today with the girls.” “Oo this sounds good. Tell me more, tell me more!” he sings imitating Grease.
“We were on our way to the movies and Susan said that she knew the perfect one that happened to be a one night showing…sound familiar?” Harry looks at me knowingly. “The Notebook. Did you still see it?” “No, instead I decided to cry out of nowhere. So we all got ice cream and saw a different movie with no romance.” I say shrugging my shoulders.
“Oh, babe I’m so sorry. It’s okay though. You’ll get to talk to me every night you can, and see my face. More importantly, I’ll get to see your adorable face.” Same old Harry, putting me first. “You are the sweetest person ever, Harold Styles. Has anything changed since I left…this morning?”
He laughs. “Nope, everything’s the same. Except you aren’t here. So for me, everything’s changed. Soon I’ll be going back to school for film and things will get busy again. You’ll get busy too with going back to school for acting, right?”
“Yeah, and at least I’ll have Emily with me for most of the time.” “Right. Well I’m sorry, Han but I‘m getting tired. I should go to bed. I’ll talk to you soon. Okay?” Damn already? “Okay. Talk to you soon, sweetie. Good night!” “Good night, babe!” he says before he logs off.
Maybe I’ll have to make sure my classes end earlier so that I can have an earlier time set up with Harry. If we start earlier he won’t have to leave so soon. It seems a little strange that he had to go so soon when he said this time would be perfect for him.
I eat dinner with my family and we watch TV, but honestly the whole rest of the evening I just think about him. I feel like until I’m busy again, this is how my days are gonna go. I have another week at home before I go to New York so that’s seven more days of lonely. I can see Susan and Sam, but still. It’s not the same. I end up going to bed early since I have nothing else to do. I climb into bed and get under the covers.
Looking up at the ceiling makes me think of the hotel ceiling I looked at so often when talking with Harry on my bed. Those were very memorable times. Those were the times when we found out the most about each other. Hopefully we can have times like that in the future. I hope we’re still together in the future…I look at my lock screen before I go to sleep and I fall asleep grinning from ear to ear; Harry changed it this morning. It’s of Flynn and Rapunzel from Tangled. It says “You were my new dream.”
