OOM: Denial
Apr. 26th, 2006 08:25 pmHannah still isn't used to waking up here. There's always a minute at first when she's happy, then confused, and then remembers where she is and why.
"Hey, sleepyhead," says her roommate Hilary, in that annoyingly cheerful way she has. "I was just about to wake you up. You're gonna miss dinner."
"I'm not hungry," says Hannah automatically.
Hilary looks at her. "You okay?"
"Yeah," says Hannah. "Just had odd dreams."
"Like nightmares?"
Yes. "No. Just odd. There was a bar in the middle of the school."
Hilary laughs. "This school? Yeah, right."
Hannah tries to smile. "Yeah, tell me about it."
"Come to dinner," says Hilary. "You can tell me all about your bar in the school."
Hannah shrugs. "All right." She sits up, flipping over her pillow over to hide still-damp spot from her crying.
Just a dream, right?

Pre-Milliways, Vermont
Apr. 22nd, 2006 10:52 amShe is so not supposed to be here.
She is supposed to be in Neptune, with her friends and her boyfriend and her life, and instead she's in Vermont, at an all girls boarding school where she doesn't know anyone, it's too late to try out for the track team, the food sucks, and there are way too many rules, which are all way strict. And you know, when you show up at an all girls boarding school all the way across the country two thirds of the way through the school year, your new classmates pretty much know you're there because your parents think you're a slut.
She absolutely hates him for getting her stuck here. She's just not sure if the him in question is Logan or her father.
She sits in the school's computer lab, logs into her e-mail, and tells herself that she does not expect to hear from her boyfriend. Or is he an ex-boyfriend? It's not like they actually broke up. Well, they did, once or twice, but they were back together when she left. Right?
She's still disappointed when there's no word from Logan.
But there is word about Logan. From Amber. In the middle of a long e-mail about asking Paul to the Sadie Hawkins Dance and what she wore and how much fun they had, was the oh so casual, "Saw that senior you were dating. He was ALL OVER Veronica Mars at the dance. Guess they're getting back together."
Right then. Ex-boyfriend it is.
Hannah logs out of the computer and heads back to her room. She really hopes Hilary is out. She just needs to be alone for a few minutes.
