Bloody Valentine
Chapter 1 ~ Past
"Hanne!" shouted someone from across the playground. Hanne turned around to face that person, it was Paul, her new boyfriend. Paul ran over to her and smiled.
"Hi sexy!" he said.
"Hey," replied Hanne. Hanne had dead straight long hair, coloured black with blue, better known as the colour nightsky. She had bluey greeny eyes. Hanne was about 5 foot 4 in height and she was thin. She had her nose pierced and ears pierced twice. Paul was a little bit taller than Hanne and he had dark brown spiky hair and brown eyes. He had his lip and ear pierced. Paul was 16 years old and Hanne was 15 years old, but she would be 16 in a month.
"You wanna come to mine after school today?" asked Paul.
"Sure," replied Hanne, "You got the place to yourself or something?"
"Yeah....but my sis comes home early tomorrow morning so you have to be quick to leave," said Paul. Hanne smiled, she couldn’t wait. Spending time with Paul was always fun, she loved it. The bell rang to go to next lesson. Paul sighed.
"Guess I better get going," he said, "Meet you here after school," He walked off. Hanne stood still, she knew she had to meet Zee, her best mate. They were gonna bunk off math’s together, they both hated it. Hanne noticed Zee walking towards her.
"Hey you ready?" asked Hanne. It was Zee’s first time bunking off math’s, she’d bunked off loads of other lessons before, but not math’s and the reason being because Ben Adams would always tell on her. Ben and Zee hated each other with passion, or so they said. Ben was Paul’s best mate and because Paul and Hanne were now an item meant that Zee had to put up with Ben hanging around. Ben only ever told on Zee to get at her, he knew Zee hated it. But it was just a laugh for Ben. Ben has now been taken out of their math’s lesson ‘cause he got red exited, meaning he had to stay out of 3 math’s lessons.
"Paul’s invited me to his place tonight," smiled Hanne.
"What?! He can’t!" shouted Zee.
"Yeah he can,"
"But we were gonna go ice skating, remember?"
"Oh no...sorry Zee....but Paul’s alone and well you know what that means,"
"Your gonna shag him!"
"Be quiet! God! Don’t say it too loud....f**king hell I don’t want everyone knowing,"
"Sorry,"
"It’s OK, just don’t say it that loud again, I think we should run to the woods now, or we’re gonna get caught," Hanne and Zee both started running towards the woods. They went quite deep into the woods and suddenly Zee tripped up over something.
"OW!" she screamed, she turned round and saw Ben giggling along side of Paul.
"Soz," said a giggling Ben.
"You f**king tossa!" shouted Zee. Zee and Ben threw offensive words at each other while Hanne wondered over to Paul.
"What you doing here?" asked Paul.
"Bunking off, same as you by the looks of things," replied Hanne.
"Should we go to my place now?"
"Yeah," Paul wondered over to Ben.
"We’re gonna go to my place now guys," he said.
"What?! You can’t leave me with that THING! Not alone!" disagreed Ben pointing at Zee.
"Come with us then," replied Paul.
"Fine," said Ben.
"Cool," said Zee.
"Paul!" shouted Hanne.
"Yeah?" asked Paul.
"I thought it was just gonna be me and you," replied Hanne.
"They can go as soon as school finishes....then we’ll be alone," said Paul.
"Good," replied Hanne. The four all headed off to Paul’s house. They’d been there for about an hour when Paul decided it would be a good idea to play spin the bottle.
"Bennyboy! You can go first!" shouted Paul all excited. Paul and Hanne had a plan to set up Zee and Ben....but Hanne wasn’t very sure that it was gonna work.
"Why me? I don’t wanna play this ‘cause I don’t wanna end up kissing you or Zee!" moaned Ben.
"Don’t spoil it Ben!" replied Paul.
"So you wanna snog me?" asked Hanne winking.
"If I had to...." replied Ben.
"Oh Ben just do it and stop Paul moaning," said Zee.
"Fine!" Ben quickly placed the bottle down and on the floor and began to spin it. It span for what seemed like ages....Ben’s fate being decided, he was so hoping that it wouldn’t land on Zee and Zee was hoping it too.
"F**k!" shouted Ben as it landed on Zee. Paul and Hanne grinned at each other.
"Guess I’ve got to go in for the kill then," Ben took a deep breath and kissed Zee....both looking like they were hating every minute of it....but secretly they were enjoying it. By the time they’d all finished playing spin the bottle Paul and Hanne had lost count of how many times Ben and Zee had to kiss. Zee made out that she was now scarred for life and Ben said that he’ll never be able to kiss again after today’s events. Paul and Hanne thought they'd sort of completed their mission on setting them up.
The next few months were all happy for Paul and Hanne, their relationship was working out so well....Paul was in the middle of thinking of asking Hanne to marry him, but he thought they were both a little too young.
"Paul....you’ll freak her out if you ask her, god you haven’t even been dating for a whole year yet," said Ben looking through Paul’s hair products.
"Yeah, but I love the girl so much, I really, really, really, really, really, really, real-"
"Love her?" butted in Ben. Paul nodded.
"Can’t stop thinking about her man,"
"Yeah, know how you feel,"
"What?! Who?!"
"I’ve had my eye on someone,"
"Name?"
"Nameless,"
"You don’t even know her name?"
"Yeah, but to you she’ll remain nameless,"
"Bet it’s Zee!"
"Yuck! F**k no!" Paul looked at Ben closely.
"Erm...you sure?" Ben knew he was going red.
"Yeah.....I gotta go, see you!" Ben rushed out of Paul’s room before Paul even had a chance to reply. On his way walking home he spotted Hanne sitting on a bench in the park. He walked up to her.
"You OK?" he asked.
"No," replied Hanne.
"What’s up?"
"I’ve gotta move to Norway with my f**king sh*t family!"
"F**k....you can’t Paul’s mad about you!"
"Exactly...but I gotta go Ben, I dunno what to do,"
"Guess you’ve got to tell Paul then,"
"Yeah, but I know he’ll be heartbroken, I don’t wanna hurt him,"
"Tell him," Ben stood up, "I gotta go now, see you tomorrow,"
"No you won’t, we leave tonight,"
"Oh my god,"
"Yeah, so I guess it’s goodbye now," Hanne said as she stood up and hugged Ben.
"Bye, take care of yourself and for gods sake tell Paul before you can’t say goodbye," Ben kissed Hanne on the cheek and left looking back and waving as he walked away. Hanne remained sat on the bench. Ring, ring, ring, ring. Her phone rang.
"Hello," answer Hanne.
"Babe,"
"Paul!"
"Look you wanna come over tonight and well share my bed?"
"Paul...I can’t,"
"What’s up? You sound real sad,"
"Paul I’ve gotta move to....Norway,"
"WHAT?!?!?!"
"I’m sorry," Hanne hung up crying and she ran back to her house. An hour later Paul arrived, he also crying for the first time ever Hanne had seen him cry. They both said their good-byes and Paul left. Hanne remained on her bed crying and crying and she couldn’t stop.
"Hanne darling," said her mum walking into her room, she hugged Hanne.
"You’ll find a Norwegian boy soon,"
"I don’t want a Norwegian guy....I want Paul,"
"Hanne, to be honest he wasn’t good for you, he made you bunk off school and everything, forget him darling, and I’m sure all the ‘Norwegian Goths’ will fall for you as soon as you step out of that plane in Norway," Hanne sighed...maybe her mum was right.
