Hello my lovelies. Enough of you wanted to see them go to Montecito so here is Part I. There'll definitely be a Part II because I think it's quite fun to explore the whole dynamic with Caleb's family :)

I really didn't appreciate the Janna porno in last week's episode. They're running out of time to get our Haleb babies back together this season but an ever-shrinking part of me still has hope...

Thanks for all the amazing reviews as usual, they seriously keep me motivated to write during these dark times!

Special note at the bottom of this chap, but enjoy below...

Montecito Madness - Part I

Hanna found herself stood in Emily's living room, trying to comfort a bawling Logan as they said goodbye to George for the week.

"Mommy noooo." He practically wailed, tears running freely down both cheeks. She couldn't remember the last time she'd seen him this upset over something and whilst it broke her heart, she also knew he was being a little ridiculous.

Maybe it was her fault - the little boy hadn't quite realised that they'd be leaving their pooch behind whilst they jetted off to California for a week, until they were literally having to leave him with Emily and Bailey. And that was when the tears had started. And they hadn't stopped. He was grouchy and he was tired and he wanted to do anything but leave their beloved dog behind.

"It's okay," She hushed him, rubbing his back as he buried his head against her neck and let the tears flow. To say he'd grown attached to their gorgeous little puppy would have been an understatement. "He'll be here when we get back," She said soothingly, "And you want to go see Nana don't you?"

"Yes," Logan nodded tearily, struggling to catch his breath.

"Shh," Hanna whispered, "Take a breath," She added, holding him tightly against her as he spluttered, before doing as she said and taking a deep breath. "I know you love him," She pouted, wiping his cheeks, "And it's hard saying bye to things we love," She explained, stroking his hair back from his face. "But when we get back he'll have missed you and love you even more."

Logan nodded and rubbed his eyes, fighting the tears that were still trying to fall. Caleb came over and squatted down next to the pair of them as Mila played with Bailey and Alison. "You know what would make things better?" He said, rubbing Logan's back as he continued to cling onto Hanna. The little boy shook his head no as he looked at Caleb through his thick lashes. "If you go and give George one final hug because he wants to show you how much he's going to miss you."

Logan sniffled but nodded, "Okay," He mumbled, finally letting go of Hanna and heading back over to Emily who was trying to settle George in his basket.

"Help," Hanna called as Caleb stood up, holding her hands up.

"We're already here?" He laughed, helping her up before rubbing her small bump tenderly. Despite being 6 months and showing early, she was now carrying relatively small and they were starting to monitor the baby more closely to ensure she was still heading along the right rate of growth.

"I know," Hanna sighed, following him with her hand on his lower back as they attempted to separate Logan from George for the second time.

"I promise we'll look after him, just like you would," They heard Emily say as Logan clung onto George for dear life.

"He likes cuddles before he sleeps," Logan explained, kissing the golden fur on top of George's head.

"We'll give him lots of cuddles," Emily reassured him, reaching out to stroke his fur.

"We promise," Ali added as she came over to join them, Mila in front of her as they followed Bailey.

"Come on bubba," Caleb encouraged, "We've got to get to the airport if we want to see Nana." He was already on edge as it was about seeing his Mom and this minor delay wasn't helping the situation.

"George is gonna be fine," Hanna stepped forward and reassured him, cradling his head as he wrapped his arms around her legs looking for comfort. "Say bye," She whispered to him as Caleb picked him up. He'd carry him out of there over his shoulder if it meant they got their flight on time.

"Bye," Logan spluttered and waved before burying his head in Caleb's neck and beginning to cry all over again. Caleb tilted his head backwards towards the door and Hanna nodded in agreement, before her two boys disappeared out the door.

She sighed and turned to Alison and Emily with an apologetic look, "Sorry, he's tired," She shook her head, keeping an eye on Mila as she spotted something she liked the look of and walked off. "Mila, come here," She called, quickly glancing at her watch. "Daddy's waiting for us in the car," She added when the blonde toddler simply stood there and stared at her. "Come on," She encouraged, holding her hand out.

"No," Mila shook her head in defiance.

"Here we go," Hanna muttered, rolling her eyes. "Whilst she attempts to throw a tantrum, let me say bye," She said, moving forward to hug Emily and then Alison. "Thanks for looking after him."

"No problem," Emily smiled at her, "Make sure you send me pictures if she practises her swimming," She instructed as Mila moved back over to George who was all too happy to start giving her kisses.

"If she even gets there," Hanna remarked. "Mimi, come on baby, we gotta go if we're gonna get to see Nana in time." Looking up at her Mommy, the toddler decided this wasn't a battle she was going to fight and gave in, holding her arms up for Hanna to pick her up. "Wow, you're testing me," She said, taking a breath before using all her strength to lift her up and keep her balance.

"Give me a kiss bye bye," Emily said, leaning forward with her lips pouted. Mila reached her little fingers out and cupped her cheeks, pressing a kiss against Emily's lips before reaching for Alison and doing the same.

"Bye bye," She repeated, smiling so big as Emily and Alison smiled back at her.

Hanna grinned and pressed a kiss against her hair - when her daughter wasn't being a little diva and saying no to everything at the moment, she was so loving and affectionate. "Have fun," Ali said, reaching out to stroke Mila's hair one final time. "We'll see you in a week."

"And tell Lo we promise we'll look after George," Emily added as she showed them out.

"If he's still crying, I'll keep that one to myself," Hanna said, giving her one more hug before heading to the car. She opened the door and strapped Mila into her seat, glancing across at Logan who was still whimpering and looking teary. She moved round to her door and as she climbed in, Caleb shot her a withering look. It wasn't often he lost his patience with their kids, but she could tell Logan was testing him right now. "Logi," She tried to soothe the four-year-old, turning around as best as she could and reaching out to stroke his leg whilst Caleb reversed out the driveway and began to head off towards the airport. "Come on, stop crying," She hushed, "George will be there when we get back from seeing Nana."

"Lo, come on." Caleb glanced back at him in the rear view mirror. "He cannot be like this on the flight," He grumbled to Hanna.

She reached across and rubbed his shoulder. He was clearly stressed about the trip and although he hated to talk about it, she knew it was because he was nervous about staying with his Mom. They saw each other when they could, but with Claudia being based in California, and them in Rosewood, it was always tough. Spending a week with her, with all their kids was going to be an interesting experience and she could tell that for whatever reason, Caleb was touchy about it.

When both of her boys were gripey like this, she felt like she was fighting a losing battle. "Babe, he's upset," She said simply, "And he's tired," She added, moving her body as best as she could to look at Logan again. When Logan got like this, there was nothing they could do but comfort him and let him sleep.

"Mommy," He spluttered and reached for her, but the straps on his seat held him back.

"Hey, shhh," Hanna said more firmly, "I can't come back there whilst Daddy's driving. Close your eyes," She tried and by some minor miracle, he did what she said and leant back and closed his eyes. She carried on stroking his leg for a few minutes until she was happy he was asleep before turning back to face the front. "And we have quiet," She sighed, shutting her eyelids and resting her head back against the headrest. She was tired herself and somewhat dreading a cross-country flight what with being six-months pregnant, having two whiny kids and a grouchy husband who was just desperate to see his Mom for the first time in what felt like forever.

"Daddeeee," Mila called from her seat, her voice craving attention.

Hanna opened her eyes and looked at Caleb as he shot her a wry grin and laughed. "We haven't forgotten about you, bug," He said, reaching across to rub Hanna's thigh in an apologetic manner. It was going to be a long trip.


Almost seven hours later and Hanna felt ready to throw Logan on the luggage carousel and leave him there. There'd been crying when they got to the airport, crying when they were on the plane and now whimpering as they waited for their bags to come out. Caleb had just snapped at him and right now Logan was refusing to leave her side, wrapping himself around her legs and pushing his head against her belly.

She completely agreed that somebody needed to tell her little boy to man up, but Logan absolutely hated when Caleb was mad at him. He idolised his Daddy and all Caleb had managed to do by snapping at him, was make him even more upset. This whole situation was becoming ridiculous.

"Babe," Hanna sighed, stroking Logan's hair with one hand as she rocked the stroller with another. "I'll wait here, can you take him for a walk?" She asked Caleb. Right now, she just needed them to kiss and make up whilst she had a bit of quiet time to pull herself together and prepare herself for a week with the in-laws. Only a woman who was completely in love with her husband would put herself through this.

Caleb looked at her and was about to say no when she shot him a look that told him he had no choice. "Sure," He agreed, extracting Logan's hands from Hanna's legs and scooping him up. He walked him towards the end of the building before finding a seat and sitting him down on his lap. "Logan," He said softly, rubbing his back and pressing a kiss against his forehead.

The little boy looked up at him with his big eyes, wiping at them tiredly, "Sorry Daddy," He spluttered.

Caleb fought a grin and pulled him tight against his chest. At least his son knew he was being over-emotional and testing right now. "It's okay," He whispered, pressing kisses against his forehead. "Thank you for saying sorry, but do you know who I think needs a really big kiss and cuddle right now?"

"Who?" Logan asked, sitting up and letting Caleb wipe his cheeks.

"Mommy," He said, running a hand through Logan's hair. "Shall we go back and see her?" Logan nodded and let Caleb prop him on the ground before he reached for his hand. "And you're gonna be a big boy and not cry?"

"I be big," He agreed, holding onto Caleb's hand tightly as they walked back.

As they approached Hanna, Caleb could see her smiling away as she chatted to a young guy who was clearly helping get their luggage. He felt his eyes narrow and forced himself not to get annoyed. Right now, that was the last thing Hanna would have appreciated. "Hey," Caleb interrupted them, letting go of Logan as he ran over to give Hanna a huge hug.

"Hey," She smiled back, looking infinitely more relaxed. Caleb swallowed guiltily – sometimes he forgot how much stress something like this put her under. "I think we got everything," She said, squeezing Logan tightly and bending down to give him a kiss. He almost seemed like he was back to his sweet self. Caleb moved behind her and wrapped an arm around her waist, pressing a gentle kiss against her forehead as she looked up at him questioningly. "Everything okay?" She whispered, squeezing his hand with one of hers and letting Logan cling onto the other one.

"Yep," He agreed, moving to make sure they really did have everything. "Who was that?" He asked as the guy who'd been talking to her moved away towards the exit.

"Just a guy who was helping me take stuff off. I think he saw me and just took pity," She said, refraining from saying anything about safety as Caleb scooped Logan up and sat him on top of their suitcases.

"That or he saw a hot woman on her own and thought he'd take advantage."

"Caleb!" Hanna exclaimed, reaching for his hand as she started to push the stroller with one hand.

"What?"

She squeezed his fingers before letting go as he almost crashed the trolley with their luggage on, "I was with offspring number 2 who was sleeping in her stroller and I have very clearly been knocked up with offspring number 3," She started, "No guy is gonna take advantage of this when my caveman husband is right around the corner."

"Damn straight," He quickly hooked an arm around her shoulder and pulled her in for a kiss before letting go and focusing on finding his Mom. "Lo, tell me if you see Nana," He said, his eyes scanning the crowd.

"She's over there," Hanna said, pointing towards the end of a line of people waiting at arrivals.

"Nana!" Logan called, scrambling to get down before running over to her, straight into her waiting arms.

"Hi Lo," Claudia grinned, hugging him tight and giving him a kiss before she stood up as Caleb and Hanna approached her. "Come here," She said to Caleb, pulling him in and squeezing him before he pulled away so that she could greet Hanna. "Look at you," She gushed, standing back to take in her daughter-in-law, "You're completely glowing and yet you don't even look pregnant."

"I definitely feel it," Hanna murmured tiredly, running a hand through her hair as Logan clung onto her striped t-shirt.

"Is my son helping out?" Claudia asked with concern. Whilst Hanna most certainly was glowing, it wasn't hard to miss the somewhat strained look on her face.

"Yeah," The blonde smiled genuinely, "He is," She said, starting to feel slightly better as Caleb pressed a gentle kiss against her forehead.

"Well this week you can completely relax," Claudia replied, stroking her arm, "We can get facials at the club and James and Clay will wear the kids out when they're not at school."

Hanna sighed as Caleb moved his hand under the back of her t-shirt and she felt his thumb start to make soothing motions, "That sounds perfect." And right now, it really did.


By the time Caleb had sorted out their hire car and they'd actually made it to Montecito, everyone was shattered. They'd been travelling all day and all Hanna wanted to do was have a quick dinner before putting Logan and Mila to bed so that her and Caleb could actually relax with William and Claudia. But as soon as they'd stepped into Claudia's incredible house, she ushered them out to their patio where William was waiting with drinks and some snacks whilst James and Clay took an excited Logan and Mila off to the swing set and playhouse at the bottom of the garden.

"What would you like Hanna?" William asked as she sat down and looked out over the beautifully manicured lawn, her eyes taking in the perfect blue of the swimming pool before they naturally looked over at her kids to make sure they were okay.

"Water's fine," She smiled, "Thanks," She added, when he passed her a glass before she couldn't help but look over at Logan and Mila again to just check everything was fine.

"Han?" Caleb interrupted her thoughts, draping a casual arm around her shoulders. "My Mom asked how you're feeling," He said gently, lifting his forearm to tuck a piece of her hair behind her ear, before curling it around her again.

"I feel good," She said, although it didn't sound entirely convincing, "Sometimes I worry that I'm not giving her all the attention she deserves," She added, resting a tender hand on her bump, "But I guess that happens when you're number 3 and number 1 and 2 are demanding attention left, right and centre."

"You need to make sure you're getting me-time," Claudia advised, popping an olive into her mouth.

Hanna held back a snarky remark. She didn't want 'me-time', she wanted time with Caleb and time with her kids. "I can take the terrors out for a day," Caleb suggested quietly before pressing a delicate kiss against the shell of her ear.

"No," Hanna pouted at him, her hand running to his thigh, "I want my time to be with you and them," She said, looking up at him with a look that said he couldn't argue with her.

"Okay," He said, slightly resigned as he kissed the side of her head and then her lips, "Whatever you want," He added as they sat back and watched the sun begin to set.

Logan came running up to them from the bottom of the back yard and headed straight for Hanna, resting his hands on her legs as he tried to get his breath back. "Are you having fun?" She asked tenderly, running a hand through his hair.

He nodded, "But Mommy," He started in a voice that Hanna knew meant he wanted something.

"What?" She asked him as out of the corner of her eye, she saw James and Clay heading back up with Mila.

"I'm hungry," He pouted, just like Hanna did.

Caleb leant over and scooped him up, bringing him to rest on his lap, "Nana's made us dinner," He said, "We were just waiting for you to have all your fun with James and Clay," He added, patting his side. "Are you done now?"

Logan nodded and happily sat back against Caleb's chest, "The swing was fun. James pushed me high but den we said we were hungry."

"Well in that case Logan," Claudia grinned at him, "Let's eat."


After a tiring first evening, Hanna was grateful when Logan and Mila both slept in past their usual 7am wake up call. Granted, it probably had a lot to do with the jet lag but still, Hanna almost hoped they'd stay that way for the entire trip, especially with baby girl going through a marathon kicking phase that was unfortunately keeping her up during the night. As much as Hanna couldn't wait to meet her, if their new baby was a little night owl she'd be doing whatever she could to change that, and fast. She fell back asleep as her thoughts consumed her and when she woke up, Caleb was no longer in bed.

She had a quick peak into the room Logan and Mila were sharing, but wasn't surprised to find it empty and she could faintly hear their happy laughs from downstairs. "Hey babe," Caleb grinned at her as she made her way into the kitchen.

"Mommy! Mommy!" Logan and Mila both called from their seats at the kitchen table, reaching their arms out for her as she came over and gave them both a morning kiss.

"Hi," She smiled, sitting herself on a barstool. "Where's your Mom?" She asked Caleb as he moved over to her, "And everyone else?"

"They're at the beach," He said, cupping her cheeks as he leant down to give her a meaningful kiss.

"What was that for?" She whispered, her hands resting on his hips as he pushed his way between her legs and connected their lips again.

"I can't kiss you because I want to?" He asked, his lips moving down her neck as his hand rubbed her bump gently.

She fought a grin and buried her head against his neck before pulling back and giving him one final kiss. "No," She laughed, pushing him away and moving off the seat to find something to eat.

Caleb shook his head at her and sat himself back down with Logan and Mila who were still making their way through a bowl of fresh fruit each. "My Mom said use whatever you want," He said, taking a piece of strawberry from Mila as she held it up for him.

"Mmm," Hanna replied, opening up the double fridge-freezer to see what she'd like. She'd spied a nutribullet on the side and she really fancied a smoothie. "I'm gonna make a smoothie," She said, pulling out some spinach, fruit and apple juice. "You want some?" She asked, looking over her shoulder at Caleb.

"I'm good," He said, "We just had some waffles."

"And where was mine?" She pouted, moving to the island to start chopping stuff up.

He shook his head at her and grinned, "You hate waffles at the moment," He laughed, standing back up and moving over to her.

"I know," She agreed, smiling up at him as his hands came to rest on her arms. "I was just testing you."

"Oh really?" He murmured, pressing a gentle kiss against the bottom of her neck. "And did I pass the test?"

"Uh huh," She breathed, nudging her nose against his before he pushed his lips onto hers. His hand cupped the back of her head and he pressed a wet kiss against her cheek before she went back to making her smoothie. "After I've made this, shall we go down to the beach?"

"Sounds good," He agreed, rubbing her side with one hand as he rested the other on the counter. "How's our girl doing?" He asked, his hand running up under the t-shirt she'd slept in. Hanna smiled as his hand naturally found their baby girl moving around.

"She's been moving a lot," She said, putting the knife she was using down as Caleb leant down to press a tender kiss against her bump. She cradled his head and ran her hand through his hair until he eventually stood back up. "Go get them ready," She whispered, smiling against his lips, "And we can go find your Mom at the beach."

"Mkay," He agreed, unable to resist kissing her one more time.

Hanna watched him pick Mila up and encourage Logan down before disappearing with them upstairs. She felt her heart flutter. Maybe this holiday was exactly what they needed.


"Mommy?" Logan asked as he stood in front of Hanna under the parasol, letting her literally cover him in sun cream.

"What baby?" She replied, making sure there wasn't an inch of his skin she hadn't covered. "Drink," She added, handing him a bottle of water to make sure he stayed hydrated. He drank thirstily before handing it back to her and wiping his mouth.

"Will you watch me?" He said, wrapping his arms around Hanna's neck as she pressed a kiss against his cheek. He was desperate to go boogie boarding but he was more desperate for Hanna to come and watch him.

"Of course," She said, squeezing his waist before encouraging him to let go, "You go with James and Clay and I'll come down in a minute, okay?"

"Okay," The little boy readily agreed, rushing over to James and taking his hand to let him take him down to where the ocean was gently lapping against the sand.

Caleb was stood up near the parasol, watching Mila as she bent down to inspect a shell she'd spotted in the sand. "Babe," She called, holding the sunscreen out for him, "Can you do my back?"

He grinned at her and helped her up before positioning her in front of him and beginning to massage the white cream into her skin. She held her hair up above her head and he couldn't stop himself from moving his lips down to kiss the newly exposed skin of the base of her neck. "Need help with your front?" He smirked, his eyes taking in her very full chest that was being contained by her white bikini top.

"I can do that bit on my own," She murmured, turning around to face him before adjusting one of her straps.

"I'm not sure," He tried again, hooking his fingers through the top of her bikini bottoms to keep her close.

"Caleb," She squealed as he nibbled on her skin. "Your Mom's right there."

He shook his head at her and took the sunscreen back to do her arms, before he very deliberately began to massage it in slowly across her décolletage and then her chest, "She wasn't there to tell me about the birds and the bees, so she can't judge. Besides," He added, resting his hands on her butt and pulling her close as the life they'd created, pushed against him, "We very clearly have sex."

She shook her head at him and bit her lip, "I know you don't mean that," She said, looking down as Mila toddled over and reached up. "Shall we go watch Lo boogie board?" She asked her, adjusting her little straw hat before taking her hand and leading her down to the water.

Caleb threw the sunscreen down onto the blanket and was just about to follow them down when his Mom walked over. "So, do you feel ready for another one?" Claudia asked as she caught Caleb staring after Hanna and Mila.

"Oh yeah," He grinned, folding his arms across his chest as he watched Hanna sit herself down in the water and play with Mila as she started to splash around. He could hear her squeal from where he was stood and all he wanted to do was go and join them. "I'm counting down for her to get here."

"Have you guys picked out a name yet?" Claudia asked, adjusting her sunglasses as they began to walk down to the shoreline.

"Yep," He said, holding his arms out for Mila as she sprinted out of the sea towards him, giggling as the water kicked up and got her wet. "Hi princess," He picked her up and held her above his head, giving her a kiss as she kicked her legs in excitement before placing her back on the ground to let her run back to Hanna in the water. "Everly," He turned to Claudia, "That's what we're calling her," He couldn't fight the smile on his face.

"It's beautiful Caleb. And a middle name?"

"Undecided," He said, laughing as Mila ran back up to him again and squinted up at him with her lips pouted, wanting a kiss before running back down to Hanna again.

"I'm really glad you managed to come out here before she gets here," Claudia placed a hand on Caleb's shoulder. "We don't see each other enough as it is and it'll be even harder when you have a new baby."

"Yeah," He smiled as they finally made it to Hanna. He stood behind her and she leant back to rest her back against his legs, Mila on her lap and pointing at Logan as they watched him with James and Clay. For once, there was nothing to worry about. "I'm glad we managed to get out here too."


Later that night, Hanna found herself laying in the quiet on the comfiest sofa she'd managed to find in the Dawson's house. Logan and Mila had long been taken to the land of dreams and everyone else bar her and Caleb had gone to bed, claiming they had work or school in the morning and needed a good night's sleep.

Hanna wasn't complaining.

She loved visiting family and friends, but she also loved her quiet time with her family. With everything she'd felt throughout this pregnancy, all she really wanted at the moment was time to relax and unwind with her kids when they were awake, and Caleb when they were asleep.

"What are you doing?" Caleb stood, leaning against the doorframe with his hands in his pockets as he watched her. In the time it had taken him to make sure Logan and Mila were still asleep, she'd managed to move from the dining table to the living room at the back at the house.

"Waiting for you," She smiled at him, "Are they still asleep?"

"Yep," He nodded, moving over towards her. He sat down at the end of the sofa and pulled her legs onto his lap, pushing her top up as he leant down to rest his lips against her bump.

Hanna cradled his head as his hand came up to rub the side of her tummy gently, "She's quiet tonight," She whispered, resting her palm on top of his.

"I can't wait to meet her," Caleb said quietly, "She's going to be so perfect, just like her Mama."

"You're such a charmer," Hanna shook her head at him as he moved up her body until he decided it would be much easier if he just moved between her legs and rested his arms on either side of her head.

"Only with you," He whispered, pushing his lips against hers tenderly, smiling against her lips when she instinctively opened her mouth and her tongue searched for his.

"Mmm," She moaned against his mouth, wrapping her arms around his neck as he pushed their groins together, his growing arousal starting to become evident. He pulled back and sat on his heels as he interlinked their fingers, taking in her swollen lips and perfect face. "We're not having sex on your Mom's sofa," She said as he let go of one of her hands to push her top up further.

He leaned over her again and gently connected their lips as his hand rested on her cheek, his thumb slowly stroking her cheekbone in time with their mouths. He paused, his breath mixing with hers as his face hovered, "I guess I better take you upstairs then," He murmured.

She blinked up at him, "Uh huh," She mumbled. Despite the crazy journey and a house full of two families trying to coexist for a week, right now… There was nowhere else she'd have rather been. Even if it was all part of the madness that was Montecito.


I hope you all enjoyed that?

For those of you who read my other fic, Restraints of Renown, it is sadly coming towards an end and realistically, this story can't go on forever either! At the moment I love writing it and I feel honoured that you all love reading it too and although it won't be happening any time soon, at some point it will need to end.

So I have a few ideas for my next story and if you haven't let me know in a Restraints review, let me know here which one you'd like to read!

~ Good Girl Gone Bad (working title): Hanna's the golden girl of Rosewood. She's got it all; beauty, money, and she's in a relationship with the golden boy, Sean Ackard. But the Ackard's have just fostered the latest bad boy who's come to town and as he manages to worm his way into her life, this good girl is going... bad.

~ Restraints sequel (I won't be giving anything away here because who knows if it's tied to what happens in the current story)

~ No title (yet): At 18, Hanna and Caleb are planning their future in New York that includes college parties, alcohol, sex and having as much fun as possible. But plans have a funny way of changing and when a pregnancy test turns positive, nothing will ever be the same for the young couple again.

What do you guys think? At the moment a lot of people are interested in the first two. Let me know in a review x
