"Are you okay?" Spencer asked as her face hovered just inches above Hanna's.

"I'm fine." Hanna said as she smiled sweetly at Spencer.

Spencer then leaned back down and placed a chaste kiss on Hanna's lips.

"I love you, Hanna." Spencer said softly.

"I love you too." Hanna said as her hands roamed all over the soft, smooth skin of Spencer's bare shoulders and upper back.

Hanna groaned in pleasure, leaned her head back and closed her eyes as Spencer gently kissed her neck and throat. Hanna shuddered at the feeling of Spencer's naked, muscular body gliding against her own. Being here in Spencer's bedroom just felt right, the moment that Hanna had fantasized about for so long was finally happening.

"Spencer..." Hanna moaned softly as Spencer placed a line of light kisses along her collar bone and chest.

Hanna's eyes snapped opened as she sat up in Spencer's bed and looked around.

"Damn...it was just a dream." Hanna sighed.

Hanna leaned her back against the headboard of the bed as she wiped the sweat from her forehead. Hanna clutched the blanket tightly, pulled it up to her neck and sunk back down into the softness of the bed. She groaned and closed her eyes. At this moment, Hanna wanted so badly to alleviate the desperate ache that was radiating between her legs, but being in Spencer's bed, she decided that wasn't a good idea and fought the temptation. Hanna sighed in disappointment. Aroused and hung over certainly was not a fun combination for the blonde.

"Hey, you're awake." Spencer said as she walked into her bedroom.

"I'm awake all right." Hanna groaned.

"How are you feeling?" Spencer asked as she walked over to the bed and sat down.

"Awful...my head hurts, my whole body aches, I can't see straight and I feel like I'm gonna puke."

"I'm sorry." Spencer said sympathetically as she reached up and brushed a strand of Hanna's disheveled blonde hair out of her face. "Why don't you go take a hot shower...maybe that'll help."

*Hot shower?* Hanna thought. *What I need is a cold one.*

"I just put out some clean towels for you in the bathroom."

"Thanks, Spence...you're the best."


When Hanna got out of the shower, she slowly made her way back down the hall to Spencer's room, where she found the brunette sitting in the middle of the bed.

"Feel any better?" Spencer asked.

"A little." Hanna said as she climbed back into bed next to Spencer.

"Just lay back down...relax." Spencer said. "I made you some toast. I know you probably don't want to eat, but you need to get some food in your stomach."

"Thanks, Spence." Hanna said as she took a bite of the toast Spencer had just given her.

"You're welcome...I also made you some tea, it should help with the nausea." Spencer said as she gave Hanna the mug that she was holding.

Hanna took a few small sips from the mug that Spencer had given her before setting it down on the night stand.

"Thanks for taking care of me last night, Spence." Hanna said as she shifted her position on the bed so that her head was now in Spencer's lap.

"What choice did I have?...I couldn't leave you drunk and alone..." Spencer said as she gently ran her fingers through Hanna's wet hair.

"Spence?"

"Yeah?"

"Did you sleep with her?" Hanna asked, softly, not making eye-contact with Spencer.

"Who?"

"That girl...from last night."

"No. I didn't."

"Really?"

"Really...I couldn't stop thinking about you and what I did to piss you off so much...you know, we still need to talk about what happened last night."

"I know we do." Hanna sighed.

"What's bothering you?"

"Spencer, I'm so sorry for how I acted...it's just that when I saw you with that girl...I..." Hanna hesitated.

"You what?"

"I just...got so jealous."

"Jealous? Why?"

"Because you weren't spending time we me..." Hanna said as she stared up into Spencer's dark eyes. "And then when we fought, I was so sure you'd come after me, and when you didn't..."

"I didn't know you wanted me to..." Spencer said softly.

"I can't hold this in anymore...I want to be with you, Spencer...as more than a friend." Hanna said, as her voice cracked. "I planned to tell you last night, but everything got so messed up and next thing I knew we were fighting...I just care about you so much and..."

"Stop..." Spencer said. "Hanna...I care about you too, but..."

Hanna sat up.

"But...you think we're better off as friends and you'll never see me as more than that...God...why couldn't I just keep my mouth shut...I just want you so bad, Spence, I can't help it...I'm so sorry..." Hanna rambled as a few tears began to trickle down her cheeks.

"Hanna. It's okay." Spencer said, calmly. "I want you too..."

"Really?"

"Yeah, but..."

"But what?" Hanna asked as tears continued to stream down her face.

"I don't want to turn out to be a rebound relationship or an experiment with your sexuality...my heart can't handle that."

"Spence. I promise you...I've never felt this way about anyone." Hanna said. "I've wanted you for as long as I can remember...but I could never find the right way to tell you and I'm so sorry for how I treated you last night...It just broke my heart to see you with another girl."

"Hanna. Are you absolutely sure that you want a relationship with me?" Spencer asked.

"Of course I am…but I have to admit, I am a little nervous."

"Nervous? About what?"

"It's just that how do I even begin to tell everyone about us? I mean it is a little weird, I've never been with a girl before and now I'm dating my best friend."

"Hanna, we don't have to tell everyone right this minute…we'll them when you're ready…I'm already out, so I really couldn't care less what people think of me, but I do care about your feelings and I know you coming out is a huge step…it shouldn't be rushed." Spencer said. "Now, if we're gonna do this whole relationship thing, we're gonna do it right…so how would you feel about going on an official date with me...tomorrow night?"

"Spencer. I'd LOVE to go on a date with you...where are you gonna take me?"

"How about a movie? That's usually a pretty safe bet for a first date…and no one will know it's a date, except us."

"Sounds great. Thank you for being so amazing."


The next evening, Hanna was sitting in front of her vanity mirror, fixing her hair, when she heard her phone chime. She walked over to her bed, picked up her phone and read her text messages.

You excited for our date?

I can't wait! :) :) :)

Great. I'm leaving my house now, see you in a few minutes.

Hanna smiled to herself and finished with her hair before going downstairs.

"You going out tonight, honey?" Ashley Marin asked as she noticed her daughter walking into the kitchen.

"Just going to the movies with Spencer, that's all."

"Okay...have a good night...I'm going to go upstairs and take a nice hot bath...tell Spencer I said hello."

"I will."

Ashley then disappeared up the staircase leaving Hanna alone in the kitchen. As Hanna sat in the kitchen thinking about Spencer, she was startled when she heard the door bell ring. Hanna smiled and jumped off of the stool she was sitting on to go answer the door. She slowly opened the door to find Spencer standing on the other side, holding a single red rose in her left hand.

"Hey. Come in here." Hanna said, pulling Spencer inside.

"Hanna. You look absolutely beautiful." Spencer said, looking Hanna up and down.

Spencer then held out the rose that she was holding. "Here. This is for you."

"Aw. Thanks, Spence. You're so sweet."

"You ready to go?"

"Yep."

Spencer walked with Hanna toward the door, stopping in the foyer and grabbing a coat off of the hook on the wall.

"It's cold out, you should wear a coat." Spencer said as she held the coat out for Hanna.

Hanna walked around in front of Spencer and let the brunette slip her coat on over her shoulders.

"After you." Spencer said as she opened the front door, letting Hanna walk out in front of her.

When the pair got to Spencer's car, Spencer opened the front passenger door for Hanna.

"You're too cute." Hanna said, looking at Spencer. "I guess chivalry isn't dead after all."

Once Hanna got into the car, Spencer closed the door, walked around to the driver's side and got in.

"You know, Spence, I never knew you were such a romantic."

Spencer laughed. "Yeah well I'm not exactly the cold-hearted, soulless person that everyone thinks I am."

"You're a total sweetheart."

"Yeah…well, don't spread it around."


Once the theater lights went out, Hanna laced her fingers with Spencer's. Although, it was just something as simple as a movie, this was definitely the best first date Hanna had ever been on. She felt like the luckiest girl in the world.


Once the movie had ended, Spencer drove Hanna home and walked her to the front door.

"I don't want this to end." Hanna said as she took Spencer's hands and stared up into her eyes.

"Me either."

Hanna draped her arms over Spencer's shoulders, while Spencer's hands planted themselves around Hanna's waist. Hanna felt her heart flutter in her chest as Spencer pulled her closer. Hanna suddenly felt her knees go slightly weak, she had never felt this nervous in anticipation of a kiss before. Spencer smiled and closed the gap between the two of them as she gently pressed her lips to Hanna's. Hanna opened her mouth slightly, as Spencer deepened the kiss. Kissing Spencer was even better than Hanna had ever imagined it to be. Spencer then broke the kiss and looked at Hanna.

"See you tomorrow morning." Spencer said.

"I…can't…wait." Hanna stuttered.

Spencer then leaned back in and placed another gentle kiss on the blonde's lips.

"Good night, Hanna." Spencer said before turning to walking back to her car.

"Goodnight."
