Curveball
Chapter Thirteen
Zach's POV
This game was so boring. Why was I here again? I hate Hannah Baker and I'm not a huge fan of her friend Emmie either. Chip was acting like and idiot, just like the rest of the guys. I was relieved when the game was over , but Chip wouldn't let us leave. After Hannah's team came out and they all said hiand whatever we could leave. Where was Chip anyways? I started to look around when these two girls were standing infront of me. Make that two very hot girls.
"Hi cutie, what's your name?" The darker haired one asked.
"Zach. How about you two?"
"Erin and Alyssa." The blonde answered.
"So your a friend of Hannah?" Alyssa asked.
"Well were teammates."
"We love Hannah." Erin gushed.
Ofcourse. Everyone loves Hannah Baker.
I decided to change the subject, talking about anything I could think of. The conversation was going well but people looked ready to clear out. Suddenly, I heard Hannah's voice.
"Thanks girls! Bye Zach!" She smirked at me. What was that all about?
"Thank god thats over." Alyssa mumbled.
"Later loser." Erin coughed. Oh.my.god! she set me up. Those girls came over and flirted with me because Hannah told them to. God, she was such a-. You know what, it was time to get out of here. Wait a minute, wheres Chip? I grabbed my phone.
"Where are you? What do you mean you left? Dude you did not. Dude just come back and get me. Ughhh, fine!" Man I didn't know any of these guys well enough to ask for a ride. Well, except John. Guess, I had no choice.
"Hey John." I called out to him.
"Yeah?"
"Umm, Chip kind of bailed, could I get a ride."
"Yeah sure. Let's go."
About halfway through the ride John turned down the radio.
"Dude can I ask you a serious question?"
"Yeah sure. I guess."
"Why, after all this time do you still hate on Baker?"
Was he serious? He was there that day. Guess he didn't remember either.
*She turned and walked away laughing, straight to Emmie and John. John looked at me and just shrugged and turned away.*
"I-you know what forget it."
"Zach? Is this because of what happened in 7th grade?"
He rememberd?
"What if it is?"
"Why are you all bent out of shape out over a joke you were playing on Hannah?""
"Is that what you all thought? Newsflash John I was serious that day." John turned and looked at me, clearly baffled.
"But you hate Baker."
"Well, I had a summer of lapse in judgement. I've never told anyone this."
"So Chip doesn't know this."
"No and let's keep it that way. Do not tell anyone this. Especially Hannah! Got it?"
"Yeah. But Zach," He pulled up in front of my house.
"Yeah?"
"I'm sorry."
Yeah well he wasn't the person who needed to say it.
