Chapter 26: A voicemail

Charlie:

I was so depressed thinking of the girl's heart I just broke. My brother suggested to take me out for a bros weekend but i told him no. He begged, called me a p#ssy and to forget about whatever i'm dealing with, I reluctantly agreed and we went to this club around Saturday night, an all age club called Dream, It's always full during the weekends, played good music and had a variety of drinks. As he was hitting on girls and getting drunk, I just sat on the table looking around at all the people having fun. Some girls approached me to dance but I wasn't interested.

"Dude, if you're not gonna hook up at least drink!" he yelled over the music and shoved the shots of tequila in my face, I was hesitant at first but I drank. And drank, and drank, and drank until I couldn't even see straight. Heading to the dance floor, dancing to whatever music was playing. I wanted to forget about Hannah but I couldn't do that since she was ingrained in my mind.

A girl came in front of me and began grinding her butt on my lap, I pushed her off on the side of the seat to go to the bathroom "PRICK!" she yelled out but I ignored her, stumbling to the bathroom. After using it, I heard my phone in my pocket, I pulled it out my vision too blurry to whoever it was so I hit the deny button. Going through my contacts, Hannah; bubbles. I can't get her out of my head, her smile, her hair, that snort she made when she found something funny. Soft skin, her kissable lips, I love her. Pressing her number, it rang until I heard a beep:

"I LOVE YOU! PLEASE, I'M SO SORRY FOR BEING A DICK! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! WE'RE MEANT TO BE TOGETHER, CALL ME! I LOVE YOU BUBBLES!" I ended it then made my way back to my brother but I wanted to go home. Exiting the club, I spotted cabs in the front and entered one. Not caring how much I gave the driver I arrived home and crashed on my bed head first. Thank God my parents weren't home or they would have been pissed that I came home drunk again.

I nursed a hangover all of Sunday, stayed in my room dreading today. I'm such an idiot. Matt bragged about the rest of the night of hooking up, girls stripping and he made it rain on them. I was so uninterested and in pain, avoiding my phone all weekend I checked to see if Hannah called but she didn't. I guess it's really over, some missed calls from Max, Austin, and Madeline. Why would she call me six times for? I didn't call her. I showered, put on some clothes and made my way to school. I so didn't want to be here at all, I should have stayed home but my uncle would have called my parents then my parents would go on about how school is important. I showed up late so I didn't have to go to my morning classes, made up an excuse to the secretary about a stomach bug.

"Charlie!" I heard a squeaky voice call me, turning around, Madeline running to me.

"What do you want Madeline?" I asked in a bored but groggy voice.

"I didn't know that you felt that way," she said in a breathless voice.

"What are you talking about?"

"I have felt this way since the ninth grade, but I didn't think you did too."

"What?"

"Saturday night, you left me a voicemail. I love the nickname you gave me and I love you too," she smiled but I just stood there dumbfounded. What was she talking love for? I don't love her. Bits and pieces coming back and I remembered using my phone to call Hannah. Sh@t, I called her instead I should have never drunk dialed. Damn it and I used Hannah's nickname!

"Look Madeline, I didn't mean to-" I tried to explain but was cut off when her lips attacked mine. She pushed me to the school wall and kissed me, it was rough and sloppy. I tried to push her away but she held onto my neck with great force, I don't want to hurt her if I push her on the ground. When she released her lips from mine, I could finally take my breath looking into her eyes all I could see was desperation.

She grinned widely and said "I can't believe we're finally official." I wanted to disagree but I didn't want to hurt her feelings either. She's ok and I needed a distraction. She took my hand and intertwined our fingers. We walked through the school doors all eyes on us immediately through the hallway, people whispering in shock. Peeking to Madeline loving it as she passed our peers, smiling at everyone and waving hello. My face neutral as we passed everyone, spotting Hannah's face in the crowd full of disappointment and sadness broke my heart, our eyes not leaving each other.
