Subject: Back to being untitled *NEW* Teeny tiny part of Ch. 5

Here's the part I promised, kiddos...
Chapter 5

Hannah nervously wiped her sweaty palms on her jeans and hitched her dance bag higher on her shoulder. She knocked on Justin's back door and waited for a response. She knocked a second time before a note on the doorknob caught her eye.

Hannah,
Sorry I'm not here to wish you luck, but I had to run into town with Belinda for some business. Good lucky today, sweetie, you'll do great. Just go on in if Justin doesn't let you in; he can never hear the knocking. 
Love,
Lynn.



Hannah smiled as she read the note a second time. Putting the piece of paper into her pocket, Hannah opened the kitchen door and stepped inside. The kitchen smelled of recent backing which Hannah inhaled sharply. She had eaten the most delicious foods since she hd moved to Millington almost a year ago. Lynn had taught her mother a lot of recipies too. Hannah and her family had been so openly embraced into the small town that Hannah felt like she had been there for more than a year. For the first time in her life she started to feel as though she was where she belonged. After she had gotten to know Justin, he had introduced her to his other friends. In such a small town, everyone knew everyone else and Justin was the local celebrity so Justin had a lot of friends. Hannah felt special to share the experience of auditioning with him, it created a unique bond.

Now Hannah just needed to see Justin to calm her nerves. She ran up the steps, calling out his name. When she got no response, she knocked on his door and tried to open it, but it was locked.

"Justin, come on, I'm gonna be late," Hannah said, knocking loudly.

"Hannah, I'm sorry, I can't go with you," Justin called out without opening the door.

"What? Come on, stop joking around and open the door." Justin was probably pulling some kind of prank, but it wasn't funny.

"Sorry, I can't go."

"Okay, why not?"

"I've got other stuff to take care of."

Hannah stepped back in shock. Justin was blowing her off? But why? She and Justin had gone to every singe audition together for the past year and this was going to be a really important one for Hannah.

"Justin, I need you there, please come with me," Hannah said as tears threatened to fall. She pounded the door with the palm of her hand, hoping Justin would open the door. She had sensed something was wrong with him for a few days now, but he hand never been so cruel to her before. "Please, Justin, please."

"I'm sorry Hannah, I can't. You'll do great," Justin said in an even tone.

The normalness of Justin's voice turned Hannah's desperation into anger.

"Fine, Timberlake, stay in there! See if I care. Actually, if you don't come out this instant and at least face me, you can forget I ever existed! I've been begging you and you don't care." Hannah paused as her chest heaved up and down from anger. "Are you coming out or not?" Hannah leaned her ear against the door to try to figure out what Justin was doing in there.

"No," Justin said flatly.

"Fine! Fine! I swear to you, from this day on I will never ever care about you again! You will never be more than just another face of someone I couldn't be bothered with."

"You do what you think you need to do. It's unfortunate that we couldn't work this out."

That was the last straw for Hannah. She snapped.

"Unfortunate?!" she yelled incredously. "Screw you, Justin! Sorry for the inconvenience then!" Hannah said in a sarcastic tone. "At least I know you won't be bothered when I leave!" With that Hannah stomred out of Justin's house, never giving it a second glance.
