After Hanna dropped Maya at a friends house, she knew there was one thing she wanted to do. Since Christmas, Caleb has been coming over less, and almost always busy, probably with his new girlfriend. So Hanna drove to his apartment, excited to see him and chill out together. They hadn't just hung out for a while. There wasn't any tension between them, she was being supportive of his new found relationship, but secretly she was jealous that this girl was his main priority, and he's not paying any attention to his best friend.

She usually uses her spare key to his place, but today she knocked on the door. "Hey, I was just-" Hanna was saying before she cut herself off. A blonde and beautiful girl stood in front of her, and Hanna's heart sank when she realized the girl was clad in one of Caleb's shirts. The one she usually wears. "Oh...I'm so sorry, I...I didn't know Caleb had company" She stuttered awkwardly. The girl didn't say anything, just stood there with a confused expression on her face. "I'm Hanna" She said to fill the silence.

"Oh, are you his sister?" She said with a weird look on her face, almost glaring.

Hanna looked to Caleb, who had just joined the two at the door, not wearing a shirt. She couldn't believe that he hadn't even mentioned her. "No ugh...We're just friends" She cringed at the term.

"Um...Hanna, this is CeCe" Caleb finally spoke up, feeling the awkward tension. "Ugh, What are you doing here?"

When did he ever ask why she was there. They're usually inseparable, and now he's acting this way. "Um...nothing..I-I was just leaving"

"Okay, bye Han" He nudged her shoulder, as if she was one of his guy friends. She felt her heart physically crack when he snaked an arm round CeCe's waist. She muttered a 'bye' and ran down the stairs, not able to be anywhere near them. Caleb walked to his window, and saw Hanna in her car, gripping onto the steering wheel and crying, the engine not even turned on. He didn't understand why she's hurting, it's not like he would ever be able to be with her. If he had the choice to be with her, he would take it in an instant, but he's always thought that she's too good for him. But little did he know, she felt exactly the same.

Hanna sighed as she looked in the mirror. It was New Years Eve, and everyone was going to a big party that night. Hanna always intended to look good, but when Caleb told her he was bringing his new girlfriend, she needed to look really good. So there she stood, in the hottest, tightest, sexiest red dress she'd seen in the mall. It was pricey, but worth it. It was tight in all the right places, giving away her amazing figure. It showed a little more boob than she would usually go for, and it was probably the shortest thing she owned, but it was perfect. She needs Caleb to be jealous, to be all over her, to forget about this other girl. She needs Caleb to want her again.

Meanwhile, Caleb had let himself in, after Hanna had shouted 'it's open' from upstairs, and told him that she wouldn't be long. He had offered to pick her up and they could go to the party together, after CeCe said she'd meet him there. The old lady from next door was there as well, baby sitting Maya for the night, but Maya stopped playing with her dolls with the lady, when Caleb came over. Maya hadn't seen much of him lately either and was so excited to show him the latest barbie she got, and bragging about all the money she got from the tooth fairy that morning. "When are you and Mummy leaving?" Maya asked, sitting on Caleb's knee on the couch.

"Well, we're meant to be leaving in a few minutes, but it depends how long it takes Hanna to get ready" He answered, twirling a piece of her hair round his finger.

"Mummy takes ages getting ready, she's been in her room for hours!" She rolled her eyes. "But she looks like a princess, so it's fine"

"I bet she does" He smiled. "She always does"

"Yeah, but she's been crying a lot, and being sad" Maya said innocently. "Princesses aren't meant to cry, and Mummy's always happy"

"Why is she sad?" Caleb asked, he hasn't talked to Hanna recently, so it was a shock to him that something was wrong with her and she didn't tell him.

"I don't know, she just said that she thinks she might loose a close friend" She said in a hushed tone. "I hope it's not Aria, she's my favorite baby-sitter" Maya said with a worried face, but Caleb knew what that meant. Caleb hadn't exactly realized, but he has been ignoring her lately, and pushing away their plans, and knowing that Hanna's sensitive, she thinks that she might loose him. Although Hanna has her circle of close friends, her and Caleb are like family. And Hanna doesn't have any family that she loves the way she loves Caleb.

Hanna, who was upstairs, swiped on a matte red lip that matched the dress, slipped on a black pair of Louis Vuitton Stilettos, and made her way downstairs. There Caleb sat, eyes wide and his lips parted on the couch. After she let his eyes roam her body for a few moments, she broke the silence. "You ready to go?"

He looked back to her eyes and swallowed. "Yeah" He tried to keep his voice steady, but seeing her in that dress took his breath away. Hanna and Caleb both said their goodbyes to Maya and the babysitter and were out the door. After a few minutes of Hanna ranting to him about something she read on Cosmo, Caleb decided to say something about what Maya said to him about her being sad. "By the way Han, sorry that I've been a little MIA recently, there's just been a lot going on...and with..." He trailed off.

"Cece and everything, yeah I know. The beginning of relationships can be busy" She tried to be as understanding as she could. "But thanks for saying that" She smiled genuinely.

When they got to the party, both of them made it to the bar and started drinking. When they began to loosen up from the alcohol, it was like nothing had changed. They were talking normally and there was no awkwardness. "Hey guys" Toby came over to them. "Wow Han, you look great"

"Thank you" She smiled, kissing his cheek. "Where's Spencer?"

"I don't know" He sighed.

"Still can't get her to go out with you?" Caleb said knowingly.

"No. She's still with that guy, Johnny Raymon. Luckily he's not here, I can't stand to see them together"

"Toby, you know she doesn't really wanna be with him. She just has to for her image for the show. We all know that she wants to be with you" Hanna tried.

"I know, but when is she gonna put her feelings before her job? Tell me what to do" He begged them, leaning his head against Hanna's shoulder.

She thought for a minute, then came up with an idea. "Okay...when it's midnight, all the couples will be kissing, just pull her in and kiss her, and make sure it's the best damn kiss you've ever given because she might come around"

"Will that really work?" Toby said with uncertainty. He would rather be just friends with Spencer than have her feel weird around him.

"I don't know for sure, but there's obviously a connection between you two, so I can't imagine why she wouldn't cave when you finally make a move. Besides, they say whoever you kiss at midnight on New Years is meant to be with you for the rest of the year"

"Thanks Han" He kissed her cheek. "I've only got 3 minutes till midnight, I better go find her" he said, disappearing into the crowds.

"How long till Simone gets here?" Hanna asked Caleb when they were alone.

"It's CeCe" He said, but she knew perfectly well what her name is. "She text me a minute ago, she's running late"

"She won't be here for the countdown? Thats the whole part of New Years Eve, what else has she got to do at 12 o'clock?"

"I don't know. I'd ask, but it might seem a bit nosey considering we've only been seeing each other for 3 weeks"

"Hey, three weeks is quite long. I had sex with Sean after 3 weeks"

"You were drunk"

"Still? You and I were drunk when we first had sex"

"Yeah but we were both drunk, Sean was sober and took advantage of you"

"Oh please River's, you're no saint" She smirked. Caleb was thinking of a comeback when someone started shouting. "Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven-"

"Guess it's time" Hanna said, both of them grabbing their glasses of champagne and joining everyone.

"-Three, Two, One, Happy New Year!" Everyone cheered. Almost everybody around them was kissing, even Spencer and Toby. Caleb turned to her and just by the look in his eyes, she knew what he was thinking. She gave him a small nod, not sure if it was a good idea but she did it anyway. Then their lips were together. Even though they kissed just a week ago, she felt like it was so long. There was so many people around, but when she felt him push his warm tongue in her mouth, it was like they were the only ones there.

It wasn't until she realized he wasn't exactly single when she pulled away, blushing. They were both trying to catch their breath and she saw he was about to say something, but a blonde interrupted. "Caleb, sorry I'm late, there was awful traffic" She said, kissing him straight after, which sent a piercing pain through Hanna's heart.

"Hey...Hanna is it?" A male voice made her turn around. "It's Wren...Emily introduced us at the party the other month"

"Oh, hey Wren. Sorry I haven't called, I've been very busy this Christmas"

"Well ugh...if your still single...do you wanna dance?"

She saw Caleb's jealous face in the corner of her eye. "I'd love to" She said to him. "Nice seeing you again, CeCe" She smiled, letting Wren lead her across the room. She saw Caleb and CeCe begin to dance, but it didn't stop him from checking on her and Wren every few minutes. She didn't miss the way Caleb glared at him when he started grinding against her.

10 minutes later, when they were still dancing, CeCe slipped to the bathroom and Caleb went over to Wren and Hanna. They were kissing and he had his hands all over her. Caleb couldn't take it anymore. "Sorry, can I just steal her for a minute?" Caleb said to Wren, not waiting for a reply and dragging Hanna away.

"Caleb, what are you doing?" Hanna asked, laughing slightly.

"What am I doing?, What are you doing dancing with that guy?"

"You don't want me to dance with him?" She said innocently.

"No, he does't really like you, he just wants to get in your pants" He made up.

"What? How can you say that?" She started to get angry.

"I just don't think you should dance with him anymore"

"Is it him that you don't want me to dance with, or do you just not want me to dance?"

"Hanna-"

"No. I'm not just going to stand over there and watch you kiss her. Believe it or not, Wren likes me and I like him. Just be happy for me and stop being so protective"

He sighed. He should be supportive, like she is with Him. "Okay" He said. She gave him a small smile and walked off.

Caleb hadn't seen Hanna for half an hour. Him and CeCe were currently sitting on one of the couch in one of the rooms, making out until he pulled away. He felt weird kissing someone who isn't Hanna. It just felt..unnatural and wrong. "So, have you and Hanna ever dated?" CeCe suddenly asked, snapping Caleb out of his daydream and shocking him completely.

"What? No, we're just friends" He answered honestly, but it still felt like he was lying. "Why would you think that?"

"It just seemed like there was some tension between you guys, and I saw you guys talking when I went to the bathroom"

"No, we're such good friends, we would never go out" Caleb lied, trying to convince her. Little did he know that Hanna was about to walk in, but stopped when she heard her name, listening to what he was about to say next. "I mean...she's hot and all, but there's nothing else to her. And...she'd be one handful of a girlfriend" He lied.

He felt his heart stop when he heard Hanna's voice come from behind him. "Is that really what you think of me?" Her voice broke as he turned around, tears falling down her cheeks. "That...that there's nothing else to me but my looks?" More tears fell. He was still stunned that she heard him that he stayed quiet, not snapping out of it until he saw her running out the door in tears. He ran after her, not bothering to explain to CeCe.

"Hanna, wait" He grabbed her arm, turning her around. His heart broke when he saw how sad she looked. Her eyes were puffy from the tears and she looked ashamed to be in her tight dress, thinking that guys were probably looking at her only wanting one thing. "I...I'm so sorry for what I said, I didn't mean any of it"

"Let go of me" She tried to sound threatening, but with all the tears and emotions, it just came out as a whimper.

"Hanna, please don't cry, I was just trying to convince her that-"

"Save it, Caleb!" She snapped, but she looked more sad than angry. "I'm just a body for you to play with, there's nothing else to me right? You said it yourself."

"But I didn't mean it! Please Hanna, you have to believe me" He pleaded, feeling tears coming himself. He couldn't lose her; the most special thing in his life.

"Please...just leave me alone" She said through the tears. He didn't want to let go of her, but there was nothing he could do. He reluctantly let go of her arm, giving her one last look before she walked away, hauling a cab and speeding away. When she got home, she told the old lady from next door that was babysitting Maya, that she didn't have to stay the whole night like she had planned, and broke down as soon as she left.
Caleb on the other hand, went back to the party and started drinking. Toby tried to tell him to slow down a few times, but Caleb didn't care. No one else knew how to felt to watch Hanna cry, knowing that it was because of him. He knew he'd taken her for granted. Every kiss, every time he had her in bed, every touch. He was determined to get her back. So half an hour later, when he had come to his senses, He got out his phone and called her, praying she would't ignore him. His mind stopped for a second when she heard her voice, even though It was pure anger.

"What do you want?" She spat through the line.

"I..." He didn't know what to say, he was surprised she'd even picked up. "I wanted to apologize for what I said...I-"

"Caleb, I don't need this from you!" She shouted, clearly more angry now than upset. "You're fucking someone else now, and I don't care what you do. I don't want to hear from you and I don't want to see you. Ever. So just stay out of my life" She hissed, abruptly hanging up afterwards. He knows she can be dramatic at times, but she always caves sooner or later. Now though, he's not so sure. He's heard her angry towards her dad, but she's never been angry at or shouted at him. He's never heard her sound so...broken.

Hanna woke up to the sound of her phone ringing. She groaned and reached onto her night stand, blindly grabbing it. "Hello?" She groaned, her eyes still closed.

"Hello, is this Hanna Marin?" A women's voice filtered through the phone.

"Yes" Hanna yawned, looking at the alarm clock that read 4am.

"It seems that you're the name on Caleb River's emergency contact list. There's been an accident-"

"An accident? Is he okay? What happened?" Hanna shot up from the bed, waking up immediately.

"I can't say anything over the phone" The lady said in a calm tone. "But, We do need you to sign some things, regarding certain medicines and operations-"

"Opperations?!" Hanna shrieked. "Okay..I-I'll be right there" She hung up.
She grabbed one of Caleb's hoodies and woke up Maya, carrying her to the car and dropping her at Aria and Ezra's apartment. They didn't seem at all annoyed at her showing up at their door at 4 in the morning, only telling her that they'd keep Maya for as long as she needed. When Hanna got to the hospital, she ran up to the first person in uniform and tried to get some answers. They directed her to the doctor that she spoke to on the phone.

"Hi, I'm Anne Sullivan-"

"Where is he, is he okay? What happened?" Hanna panicked.

"He was walking home drunk and a car hit him when he crossed the road"

"Is he hurt bad?" Hanna dared to ask.

"Well...He hit his head pretty badly. He hit the side of the car and punctured a lung so we had to put him through surgery-"

"Is he okay now? Can I see him?!"

"I'm afraid he's been put into a medically induced coma. There's no telling when he will wake up, it could be now, tomorrow, next month..."

"But..he will wake up, right?" She said shaking.

"Things like this are tricky. There's no way to tell. But...if and when he does wake up, the way he hit his head may be more severe, and he might suffer some memory loss"

"M-Memory loss?" Hanna stuttered, tears now falling down her face. "He..he won't remember me?"

"We don't know. It depends how bad it is"

"Can...can I see him?" She tried to keep it together, but she couldn't stop crying.

"Of course" The doctor led her to Caleb's hospital room and explained more things about his condition, but Hanna wasn't listening at that point. All she could focus on was the cold, limp and lifeless body before her. He was so pale. There was wires around him and and a heart monitor next to him. "It's his choice whether to wake up now"

"What do you mean 'his choice'?" Hanna said. "Aren't you guys supposed to be the ones to wake him up?"

"We've done all we can...some patients don't want to wake up. It's now up to him" She explained.

"Can I stay here with him?" Hanna finally turned away from him to look at the doctor.

"For as long as you want. There's a button there if anything happens, and if you need me in any way, I'll be down the hall" She said understandingly, closing the door to give her some privacy.

A sob ripped from Hanna's chest as soon as she sat down in the chair next to his bed. She pulled the chair right up close to him and squeezed his hand. She completely broke down as the reality of it all hit her hard. She knew she should call Toby and Claudia and tell them what happened, but she needs some time alone with him first. It annoyed her how peaceful he looked just lying there. He had to wake up. He needed to. She must have just sat there crying for hours, until she finally fell asleep, resting her head on the side of Caleb's bed and squeezing onto his hand tightly.

It didn't last long though. She woke up about an hour later, and immediately started crying again. "I...I'm so sorry Caleb" She said between sobs. "Th-this is all m-my fault. If I hadn't been such a bitch then you wouldn't have started drinking and you could be at home now and you'd be fine" She cried. "I just...I thought you didn't want me anymore. But I didn't even let you explain. You have to wake up Caleb. Please" She begged, her tears falling from her cheeks onto his. "I'm so sorry for what I said on the phone, I didn't mean it...at all. I would never want you to be out of my life. I don't...I don't know what I'd do without you. I'd loose my best friend...the person I love"

"I know you won't remember this...but I need to tell you...that..that I Love you. And I know that you already know that I love you, but I...I'm in love with you. I've never been in love with someone. I don't know the exact moment I fell in love with you. Maybe it was when we made love for the first time. Or when you and Maya were making cupcakes and you got icing on your nose and I just found it the cutest thing" She let herself laugh through her tears.

"I can't loose you Caleb. Even though your the biggest ass I know, We've made so many memories and we need to make more, so you have to wake up. And don't you dare forget about me. The doctor said you might forget things, but you can't. Please Caleb" She broke down again. "Don't forget me. There's so many things we have to do together. We can plan a trip...go to Europe maybe" She day-dreamed. "We could go wine tasting in Budapest..." She trailed off. "Make love in Paris with the Eiffel Tower right outside our window" She smiled at the thought, but when she looked at him, she started sobbing all over again. "P-Please remember me Caleb" She buried her face in her hands.

"Like I could forget you, Hanna"

Her head shot up at the deep groggy voice that spoke.

It was Caleb.

"Oh my god, you're okay!" Hanna said, wrapping his arms around him the best she could. "Don't ever do that to me again!" She pulled away, looking straight in his eyes. "No matter how bad our fights are, if you're drunk and need a lift or need help, you could have called me"

He wiped some of her tears from her cheeks. "Come here" He shuffle on the bed, making room for her. She was careful not to touch the wires and tried not to hurt him, but he put an arm around her and told her he's fine. "I'll make it up to you" His voice came out quiet and croaky. "We can have sex looking at the Eiffel Tower" He whispered in her ear.

Hanna's eyes widened at that. "How...how did you know I said that? Did you hear everything I said?" She said, shaking at the thought.

"I did" He smirked. "Did the doctor not tell you that in some comas you can hear everything around you, you just can't do anything about it"

"No, she didn't mention that" Hanna swallowed, going a deep shade of red.

"By the way" He turned serious. "I...I love you too"

"No Caleb, you don't have to say it just because I did. If you don't mean it, then don't say it-"

"But I do mean it. I love you Hanna. Only you, it's always been you"

"Then why did you go and date someone who looks exactly like me, but prettier and skinnier? I thought that you were going to tell me how you feel, and I was going to tell you, but then you told me you were seeing someone" She said sadly.

"I..I didn't know you felt that way. If I had known then we could have had this conversation a long time ago. I thought I would never be able to have you, so I thought if I move on from you now with someone else, then I'd get over you." He said, but she still looked uncertain. "I didn't mean anything I said earlier by the way. You're not just hot, and you wouldn't be a handful of a girlfriend. In fact, anyone would be lucky to call you his girlfriend"

She smiled sadly at him. "Then why did you say it?" She said, playing with the strings on Caleb's hoodie she was wearing.

"Because CeCe asked me if we had ever gone out. Clearly she noticed the connection between us as well as everyone else"

"But you and her are still together, I don't want you to cheat-"

"I ended things with her after you left. I felt so bad, I couldn't even look at her"

"So what does this mean for us? Do you just..wanna go back to being friends with benefits?" She said sadly.

"No. I want nothing more than to be with you fully, if that's what you want" He said sternly, holding her tighter.

She let a happy tear fall. "That's what I've wanted for a long time" She whispered, both of them smiling as they connected their lips again.

"Even if I'm 'the biggest ass you know'?" He repeated the words she'd said with a smile on his face.

"You will always be the biggest ass I know" She smiled back, kissing him quickly. "You know, I should probably tell the doctors that you're okay" She tried to get up, but he pulled her back down to him.

"Han, before all the people come in here asking a million questions, I wanna spend some time with you" He said, letting her cuddle in to him more. "What do you think Maya's gonna feel about us being together?"

"Caleb, she loves you. Every guy I bring home, she hates, but she's known you for her whole life and you treat her as a daughter. She probably won't even notice, we're together all the time anyway. And all the girls will be thrilled about this, all they've been doing is telling me that we have feelings for each other, and to just go out" She smiled. "But there is someone I can think of who won't be happy"

"Kate? I hope she gets really angry and realizes how much better you are than her. But your Dad will flip when he finds out, he thinks it's bad enough that we're friends" He laughed slightly.

"I don't care what he thinks, he has no say in this" She rolled her eyes just the thought of her father's foolish ways. "But Claudia is gonna be so happy" She gushes.

He smiles at her excitement and looks in her eyes for a long moment. "Why didn't we do this ages ago? We've liked each other for years" He strokes her hair.

"Because we both care about each other so much that we didn't want to ruin our friendship. And we're idiots" Hanna said, pecking his lips.

So...They're finally together! I know a lot of you have been wanting more bits with Caleb and Maya, and yes, I will be focusing a lot more on them now that Hanna and Caleb are together (: Hope you like this and sorry it took so long x
