Okay so I've had this story in my head since we found out that Haleb were going to break up but I didn't write it down because I wanted to see what happened in 6b first. I have a rough idea of where its going although I don't have anything else written down as I've been really busy lately revising for my GCSE's but I wanted to post this chapter to get your reactions and see if I should continue.

Keep Hold of My Heart

Chapter One

Caleb turned the corner in his Jeep and drove past the Rosewood sign. He entered the familiar town and drove through it past the church and the police station until he reached his old apartment block. He pulled up outside and got out of the car, taking his suitcase from the boot he made his way inside.

The small apartment was covered in layers of dust and the only light source was the October sun which was peeping through the gaps in the card board that was covering the windows. Flicking on the lights he pulled his case inside and left it by the bed. Then he made his way back outside and started bringing in the few boxes he had picked up from storage on his way over, ready to unpack.

Two hours later Caleb finally slumped down onto the sofa and looked around at all his work. The apartment was looking a lot brighter and more like home again. The evening sun now shone through the open windows and the thick layer of dust was gone. All the boxes had been emptied and the personal items placed on shelves and in the drawers that they belonged to.

He sat up slightly to pull his phone, cigarette packet and lighter out of his pocket. He pulled out a cigarette and light it before throwing everything onto the coffee table. His head rested against the back of the sofa as he took a long drag from his cigarette and relaxed. His eyes wondered to the box in the corner that he couldn't bring himself to open. He knew exactly what was in it without having to lift the lid.

The box was filled with Hanna's things.

All the pictures of her, all the memories of her and everything that she used to keep at his apartment when he lived here in his late teens. It reminded him of everything they had and how they escaped this town to start their life together in New York six years ago. And now, here he was back in Rosewood again, on his own.

..."Look I'll only miss Prague. I'll fly straight from Tokyo to Budapest." She told him.

Caleb shook his head and turned around to he was facing her. "You said you wanted to talk about this, you've already made up your mind."

"If I don't go I'll loose my job."

"Do you know how many times I've heard that?" Caleb scoffed stretching out his hands. "You said that on my birthday, on your birthday, on New Year's Eve. Hanna your life is on a loop, I'm barely apart of it."

"What do you want me to do?" She asked. He didn't understand she had no choice.

"I want you to say no to your boss and come with me to Europe like we've been planning for the last three months." He pleaded.

"I can't do that." She replied angrily but softened when she looked at his face. "I'm sorry." She said reaching forward for his hands.

Caleb stepped back and turned his head to the side away from her, knowing that if he looked into her eyes he would give in again. She looked at him for a few seconds before turning and walking to the door. "If you go I'm not going to be here when you get back." Caleb said then, making a decision.

"What do you mean?" Hanna asked letting go of the door.

"I'm leaving today." He shook his head again. "I can't keep doing this."

She looked at the door and then back at him. "We'll work this out, like we always do." She opened the door fully and took hold of her case. "I'll call you from the cab." And with that she was gone...

Caleb woke up the next morning from where he had fallen asleep on the sofa, tired from yesterdays journey. The sun was once again shining through the windows and birds were singing outside. He stretched and stood up before lighting another cigarette and making his way over to the kitchen area. His stomach growled as he searched his cupboards for something to eat. They were bare except for a half eaten sandwich he hadn't finished last night. He sighed and took a drag of his cigarette before he headed to the bathroom for a shower.

After his shower he headed to the supermarket to stock up on food. When his basket was full he turned around and started walking to the tills when a blonde woman, who had been looking down at her phone, crashed into him and fell to the ground. Caleb looked down at her to apologise it before any words came out of his mouth she looked p and their eyes met.

"Hanna." He gulped.

She gasped and her heart froze. "Caleb."

They just stared at each other for a few seconds unable to speak or move in the shock of seeing each other again. He knew that there was a possibility they might run into each other eventually but he didn't expect it to be on his first day back. He was the first one to break away and held out his hand to help her up.

"Thanks," she mumbled dusting down her jeans as her cheeks turned red.

"Are you okay?" He asked, still keeping hold of her hand.

She nodded and pulled her hand away. "I have to go." She said before turning around and quickly walking away from him, not daring to look back. Caleb just watched her leave the shop, unable to say or do anything until she was gone.

He sighed and picked up his basket he had dropped. Then he spotted an iPhone with a blue case, It was Hanna's, He had seen it in her hands before he knocked her over. He bent down and picked it up before he stuffed it into his pocket and carried on to the till.

"Caleb?" He herd a familiar voice calling his name from behind as he exited the supermarket. He turned around to see his old friend walking towards him in his cop uniform.

"Toby." He smiled walking up to him. "It good to see you man." He said as Toby pulled him in for a hug and patted his back.

"You too." Toby smiled. "What brought you back to Rosewood? Last I herd you was traveling around Europe."

Caleb looked down. "Not anymore. I'm back. I got work at Hollis doing all the tech stuff for the computers." He explained.

"Do you need a place to stay, my cabins still available?"

"No I'm good. My mom never sold my old apartment so I'm staying their again."

"Okay, well I have a shift now but do want to go for a drink sometime and catch up properly?" Toby asked.

"Yeah, whereabouts?"

"What about tomorrow night, at the Grille?"

"That's fine, see you then." Caleb smiled before he made his way back to his car. as he started the ignition his mind went back to the phone in his pocket and Hanna. He wondered what had happened to her since they had last seen each other and what had brought her back to Rosewood. He decided to go to the only place he knew she had connections, the home she had invited him into all them years ago when he had no where else to go.

It took him a few minutes to arrive at the Marin home and before he had thought about what he was doing he had knocked on the door. He froze momentarily. He should have thought this through better. He'd already bumped into her today, quite literally and now he was just showing up at her doorstep, but it was too late now the handle on the door twisted and it opened.

Hanna widened her eyes as she saw him and stepped outside, closing the door behind her. "Hey," Caleb smiled hesitantly as he shoved his hands in his jacket pockets.

"Hi." She replied not knowing what else to say. "What are you doing here?"

Caleb's mind went blank as he looked at her, taking in all her features like it was the first time he had seen her. "I- I just… you dropped your phone." He said remembering why he was here and pulled her phone out of his pocket.

"Thanks." She swallowed taking it from him. "How did you know I was here?"

"I just guessed." He shrugged and stuffed his hands back in his pocket. Instinct took over and he stepped closer. "Can I come in?"

Hanna froze and stepped back gripping onto the door handle. "I was just going out, so…"

"It fine." He smiled awkwardly, annoyed at himself for asking. "I should go."

"Thanks for bringing me my phone." Hanna said as he turned around.

"No problem." Caleb smiled.

"Bye." Hanna smiled back weakly, watching as he walked down the path. she waited until he was back in his car and had driven off before she went back inside. As soon as the lock clicked she leant back against the door and closed her eyes, letting out a long sigh. Panic had taken over when she crashed into him at the supermarket and had abandoned her shopping to race home. She thought that after New York she'd never see him again. That was it, he was gone... but now he was back and it wouldn't take him long to realise-

"Mommy." A voice called from the living room, interrupting her her thoughts. It was soon followed by a little girl running into the hallway and up to her mother. "Who was at the door?"

"No one, baby." Hanna replied quickly. She walked over her and put her hands on her shoulder. "Come on, you need to finish your homework." She said leading her back into the living room.

Hanna leant down and pressed a kiss to her daughters head before glancing back at the door one last time.
