Thanks for the reviews, glad you liked it! Sorry its taken a while, wifi been slow and had a lot of drama recently xx
Hanna woke up in her king-sized bed in the puffy white sheets. Her and Marks bedroom was very white and posh. She loved waking up in there with the natural light filling the room, but she would like it even more if she had Mark next to her. He always gets up early to go to work so they don't get to cuddle in the mornings anymore. He was going to be working today -even though it was Saturday, but he was working from home so at least that was a little better.
She got up from bed and slipped on her Victoria's Secret silk dressing gown and brushed her hair and teeth.
"Morning" He said, not lifting his eyes from the paper work he was reviewing, as she walked in the kitchen.
"Hey" She said rubbing her eyes, then kissing his cheek.
"How'd you sleep?" He asked still half-concentrated on his work.
"Alright" She replied.
"I'm gonna have some people over next Saturday for dinner, just colleagues"
"Any reason?" She said getting a smoothie out of the fridge.
"Yeah, a few of us will be trying to convince a man to take us up on an offer, I'd like it if you joined us"
"Why? I don't exactly know much about marketing and numbers" She half-laughed.
"No but I'm sure a rich man like that would appreciate a beautiful girl sitting next to him"
She nodded slowly, now understanding. What he meant by that was 'I want you to sweet talk him and shove your tits in his face so agrees to our deal'.
"Aria's in town visiting her brother so I'm gonna meet her for coffee, I'll see you later" She said then going upstairs to get ready.
"I'll have soy latte please" Hanna said to the starbuck's lady as she got her purse out her bag.
"Thats £3.50 please" She said after a few minutes, passing Hanna her latte.
She got out the change from her purse but dropped one of the pounds. "Shit" She muttered under her breath.
"Here you go" A man said handing her change to her.
"Caleb?" She smiled.
"Hey" He said, realizing it was her. Damn she looks good just getting coffee. She was wearing tight black jeans that made her ass look great and she had a long sleeve pastel-purple crop-jumper, which showed her bare midriff and a pair of knee high black heel-boots. "how've you been?" Since they hadn't seen each other since the event last week.
She quickly paid and grabbed her drink from the side. "I've been okay, how are you?"
"Good, I'm going to your boyfriends house next weekend actually, will I see you there?"
"Your going to that?"
"Yeah, I have to"
"Well, so do I, so I'll see you there" She rolled her eyes and half-sighed.
"Why do you have to go?"
"I don't really know..." She lied, not making eye contact.
"So what brings you here?"
Hanna suddenly got a text. 'Han, I'm so sorry but I can't make it, can we do dinner tonight instead? - Aria'
"Ugh, sorry about that. My friends in town meeting me for coffee but she just canceled" She said quickly replying and putting her phone away.
"Well if your not doing anything anymore, you could come to this new club thats open with a few friends of mine? But if thats not you're kinda thing then I get it"
"No, that is absolutely my kinda thing! I would love to, I'm always stuck at home with Mark and he's always working. Are you sure I won't be intruding your 'guys night' or whatever?" She said using air quotations when she said 'guys night'.
"No its fine, everyone brings there girlfriends apart from me, so it will be nice to have a friend with me who isn't making out with someone else the whole night" He laughed. "I think you might have to be 21 to get in though"
"That's fine, I'll bring my fake ID. Hey, can I ask my friend to come? The one that just cancelled, she wants to do dinner instead because she's busy during the day, but I'm sure going to a club would be a lot better"
"Of course" He said happy that there was a smile on her face. He thought she had the best smile.
"Thank you! What time shall we meet?"
"9, outside the club?" He asked.
"Sure. Hey could you do me a favor and not tell Mark? He doesn't let me do much and if he found out I was going dancing or anything remotely fun with someone who works for his company, he would kill me" She said surprisingly serious.
In any other case, Caleb would ask why she was so worried about doing something without him knowing and he would ask why she had to ask him permission to do anything, but he knows what kinda guy Mark is. He wasn't someone you would want to mess with. Caleb was scared to be hanging out with Hanna, just in case Mark ever did find out, but it was worth it. She just brought such good energy with her and Caleb needed that. He also felt extremely bad for her. Mark was an awfully controlling and rude boss but Caleb would just contain his anger in the day and when he got back from work it would all be over, but as hard as it may seem to have him as your boss, Hanna had to have him for a boyfriend. There was no going home and just forgetting about it because she lived with him.
"Don't worry, I won't say a thing. Trust me, that would get me in shit with him too" He half-laughed.
"Alright then, I'll see you later" She said, kissing him on the cheek and leaving Starbucks.
Later that evening, Aria and Hanna had just gotten ready to go to the opening of the new club. Aria had chosen a dark, shimmery-blue body con with her hair pinned up and black scrappy heels and Hanna was wearing a black dress. It was lace at the top which easily exposed her impressive cleavage and you could clearly see her black bra through it which made it that much sexier, and then it went into a complete black mini-skirt which only just skimmed her butt. She loved dressing up when it wasn't to impress someone or when Mark was telling her what to wear. If Mark was home, he would most defiantly not be letting Hanna out like that. He wouldn't mind if he wore it around his friends or other people he knew to make them jealous, but not if she was going out alone. It was crazy that he wouldn't even let her go out even though she's 19 and should be living life to the fullest and doing whatever she wants.
Mark was luckily at the office collecting some papers he left there so he wouldn't see Hanna and Aria going to 'dinner'. She left a note in the kitchen that said 'Gone to dinner with Aria, won't be back till late so I'm gonna stay at her place. I'll be back in the morning, love you -Hanna'
She had to stay at Aria's so she could get drunk and not have to worry about going home to Mark and him asking why she was drinking at dinner and why she wore that outfit.
"So who's this Caleb we're meeting?" Aria asked Hanna in the taxi when they were almost there.
"He works for Mark but we became friends at an event last week, when we ran into each other today he asked if we could come" Hanna explained with a peaceful smile on her face.
"Do you like him!?" Aria said noticing her facial expression.
"What? No!" She said.
"Well you're smiling like an idiot and I don't think you would be wearing a dress that hot if you didn't want him to notice you"
"Would you stop!" Hanna blushed, laughing at Aria. Hanna knew Aria was partly right. She did want Caleb to notice her. There was just something about him that made her stomach turn and he gave her butterflies like no one else has.
"Thats $25 please" The taxi driver said as they pulled outside the club.
They paid half each and got out and Hanna noticed Caleb with a few of his friends standing outside.
"Hey" Hanna said to Caleb.
When he turned around he was almost speechless. Her hair and makeup was perfect and her dress was the sexiest thing he had ever seen. She was drop-dead-gorgous to him.
"Hey" He smiled. "Guys this is Hanna and..."
"Aria" The shorter brunette said.
The girls met all Caleb's friends and all they're girlfriends too. There was 3 with girlfriends and 2 single. They all headed straight to the busy bar and ordered drinks and then everyone was dancing. Aria was dancing with Troy, one of Caleb's single friends and Hanna was dancing with Caleb.
About an hour in, Hanna needed the bathroom, which wasn't surprising to him considering she had quite a few drinks and had chugged them down fast. She wasn't drunk, she was tipsy but she wasn't drunk.
He went to the bar to order a drink and Aria approached him.
"You enjoying the night?" He asked her.
"Yeah, thank you for inviting us. I haven't seen Hanna this happy since before she was dating Mark"
"Really? Do you like Mark?" He asked genuinely curious.
"No. Not at all. In fact I hate him"
Caleb was not expecting that from such a sweet girl about her best friends boyfriend. "Why don't you like him?- I mean, not that I do but I don't like him cause he's a terrible boss"
"I just don't like the way he treats Hanna. God, you should have seen her face when we left the house today. She was so scared he would see her and tell her she needed to change or she couldn't go or something. The amount of times she has called me or one of the other girls back in Rosewood, in tears, telling us another story of what he's done to her"
Caleb felt so bad for her. He wanted to go over there and beat him for treating her or any girl that way, but he was his boss after all. "I don't get why she won't just break up with him"
"She's tried. Many times. But you know how powerful he is, he would destroy everything for her. He's...abusive...and she can't handle anymore hurt. Physically and mentally" Aria said sadly. "If she really wanted to walk away from it all, she could. She's just scared"
"Does he hurt her?" 'Or worse...?' He thought.
"Look, I don't think I should even be telling you this so if you want any more info then you'll have to ask her."
"Sorry Caleb, can I steal Han for a minute" Aria said approaching the two that were dancing.
"Of course" He smiled.
"Whats wrong?" Hanna asked.
"Someone broke the lock on the bathroom door, can you guard it for me?"
"Sure. Back in a sec Caleb" She said before turning on her heels and leaving.
"So, you and Troy were dancing" Hanna smiled as they walked to the bathroom. "Do you like him?"
"He's nice" Aria blushed. "But obviously nothing can happen when we live in different places"
"You're blushing! You must really like him" Hanna teased her friend.
"You can talk!" Aria said.
"What do you mean?"
"I see the way you look at Caleb and the way he looks at you"
"Well forget it cause I'm with Mark" Hanna sighed.
"And look how well thats working out" Aria said sarcastically.
"Just shut up and pee" Hanna said pushing her small friend in the bathroom.
When Aria was done in the bathroom, she carried on dancing and getting to know Troy and Hanna and Caleb went to the bar. They continued to get more drunk and they continued to talk, laugh and dance. There was multiple times that Caleb had to glare at different guys for staring at her, asking her to dance, grinding against her or slapping her but as they walked past. He didnt think Hanna would notice him glaring, but she did and she loved it.
At the end of the night, Hanna and Caleb were outside the club, Aria was getting a taxi for her and Hanna and Troy was doing the same for him and Caleb.
"We have to do this again sometime!" Hanna said leaning on Caleb for support as her legs were tired from the dancing and the 6 inch heels.
"If we do, you have to wear another one of your sexy little outfits" He mumbled in her ear.
"Caleb!" She laughed, slapping his arm, but it didnt hurt at all.
"What?" He smiled.
"Your so dirty!" She whispered like a kid.
He laughed at her. "Will I see you at Mark's dinner next weekend?"
"Probably" She sighed, rolling her eyes.
"Han, the taxi's here" Aria said to her friend. "Bye Caleb it was nice meeting you" she waved before jumping in the car waiting for Hanna.
"Bye Caleb" She half-slurred.
He kissed the corner of her mouth. "Bye babe" She blushed furiously and tried to hide it but he could see right through her.
She smiled at him and that smile stuck when she was in the taxi, when she was in bed, throughout her sleep, and even when she woke up with the slightest hangover.
