This chapter has been rewritten so many times, I've lost count. I'm finally decently happy with it so here it is. I hope this lives up to some realistic standards. This is probably one of my favorite chapters.

As Caleb walked into Hanna's room, he was surprised to see the spot that his girlfriend was just recently in abandoned. His mind raced right back to that place it had sped to for more days than he was comfortable with by this point. And of course, he was correct when he found Hanna in the bathroom kelt on her knees in front of the toilet and then 10 minutes later following her back to her room, questioning the recurring events once again.

"Okay Han" Caleb asked as they arrived back in Hanna room "what is up?"

"Caleb please" she begged as she sat on her bed "don't use that tone"

"Well I apologize for being concerned about you, but I'm getting fed up" he spat out at her

"If you want me to tell you, you need to stop speaking to me like that" Hanna demanded

"Hanna just tell me what the hell is going on. Enough with these games" Caleb all but screamed

Hanna sat there, not a word coming out of her mouth, just watching Caleb as he became increasingly angry.

"Our entire relationship has been about secrets" Caleb continued when Hanna didn't respond "& I get why you kept so many before, but why now" he pried

"I'm not keeping secrets" Hanna fought back. Ok so that was a flat out lie but she wasn't dong it intentionally.

Caleb shook his head "yes you are. you don't think I can tell?" He questioned "we are about to start a life together in New York, this isn't really the time to start with the lies again"

Hanna was getting fed up. What Caleb didn't realize is if he would stop screaming, she would tell him.

Caleb took a step closer to the bed, calming himself before he spoke again "Han if you don't want to be with me, if that's the problem, then just tell me, be honest"

Within seconds Hanna's face turned from frustration to complete shock "what?"

How could Caleb possibly think she would want to break up. The problem was just about the opposite. "Tell me your joking" Hanna tried, hoping Caleb wasn't actually thinking those types of thoughts

"Well I don't know what else the problem could be" Caleb admitted, rubbing the back of his neck as he glanced down at the floor

Hanna stared at him in complete disbelief "you know what" she decided as she got up from the bed, storming over to the table on the other side of her room where she had left her purse, opening it up, searching for the item she had put in there 3 days prior. Caleb looked up, turning in her direction "what?" He questioned, watching for what she was looking for, confused. This wasn't the way she planned to tell him, but at least it would shut him up, or change his train of thought maybe. "You wanted to know what all the secrecy was about" she continued at she came across what she was looking for. "Here" Hanna turned around with the pink stick in her hand, handing it to Caleb.

Caleb paused watching her for a moment before reluctantly taking the item from Hanna.

He kept his hand still, not looking down at what was placed in it. "What is this?" He asked

Hanna snorted "you know what it is" she stated as she walked back over to her bed taking a seat.

It was true. Caleb knew what it was and if what was in his hand was the reason Hanna had been acting so strange lately, then He knew exactly what it said.

The room was completely silent as Caleb looked down at the pregnancy test he was holding, Hanna staring at him from her spot on the other side of the room, watching his every move.

"You're-" Caleb started to speak, his voice low as he took in the information

"Yeah" was all that he heard before he even finished his sentence.

Moments past but eventually Caleb looked up at Hanna, who was no longer looking at him. "Your pregnant?" He confirmed once again. Hanna turned her head back to him, her emotions taking over and fear now spread across her face. "I didn't know how to tell you"

"How about Hi Caleb, I'm carrying your child" he snarked, maybe a bit too harsh

He was in shock, and he clearly wasn't thinking straight.

Hanna could feel herself getting emotional "I thought you would leave me"

She looked back down, now being the one to avoid eye contact "and honestly Caleb, I wouldn't blame you, we are 18, no guy wants to deal with this kind of drama this young so just- before Hanna could finish, Caleb had walked across the room and she was cut off by Him connecting his lips to hers, kissing her softly, but with so much passion, as if it was their first kiss all over again. So much felt built up and it was like a relief when Caleb put his lips on hers.

When they separated, Caleb looked Hanna deep in eyes, only inches away from her. He looked scared but a small smile appeared on his face. "I'm not going anywhere" he stated, all anger completely forgotten

Hanna was shocked, she was completely prepared for him to just get up and walk out.

"Y-your not" she questioned

"Hanna" Caleb sighed "why would you think I would leave?" He asked, his tone much softer than moments ago "this is my baby too, and regardless of what we decide, I love you and I would never leave you, especially for something like this" he confirmed

Hanna looked at Caleb in the eyes, her blue orbs meeting his brown ones "I love you too" she stated, simply

Caleb moved closer to Hanna, connecting their lips once again. This time the kiss was deeper and full of emotion, Caleb slipped his tongue into Hanns mouth, moving his hands to her face, cupping each side. He lean forward, lying Hanna down on her back and hovering over her, not once breaking the kiss. This time wasn't the same as all the others though, they were in a totally different place, they were feeling a way they had never felt before, it wasn't like when they slept together all the other times. This was brand new territory, this time, it was about something beyond just their love for each other. This was about their baby


A few hours later Caleb and Hanna were in the living room. Ashley texted saying she would be out for the day, something about helping Ted at the church so the couple decided to take advantage of their day alone and take it easy.

It was now early evening and as Caleb sat on the couch watching some game on tv, Hanna napped with her head rested on his lap. Caleb could barely keep his focus on the tv, he kept looking down at Hanna sleeping. It had been an emotional day, not much discussion had taken place yet but the weight of the situation was there. He couldn't believe she was pregnant with his baby, he didn't know how to feel, was he scared? Of course, but was if the most terrible thing? Probably not. Regardless he didn't know what the hell they were going to do and it was driving him insane.

Just as Caleb had once again got lost in his thoughts, he was pulled out of them as Ashley Marin arrived home

"Hello?" She called

"uh hi, we are in here" he responded

Ashley walked into the living room and sat down on the chair next to the couch

"So did we figure out what is going on with her?" She questioned, glancing down and noticing her daughters current state

Caleb figured Ashley probably didn't know considering she hadn't said anything and appeared just as lost that morning "oh uhm yea, she's just stressed, I guess she got in an argument with Alison, she wasn't feel great and it all built up" he lied

Ashley looked half resistant with what Caleb was saying and half accepting "so it's not her bulimia?" She assured

Caleb smiled softly "no it's not, I apologize for worrying you. I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions" he apologized

" don't worry about it,I don't blame you. I'm glad she's alright." Ashley agreed

"Me too" Caleb half admitted, honestly he didn't know if Hanna was really okay

"So are you staying tonight?" Ashley questioned

Caleb glanced down at Hanna "if it's alright with you, I think it would be a good idea, she's had a rough couple days"

Ashley was now the one to smile "it's fine with me" she agreed. " I'll start dinner, let her sleep for a few more minutes"

"Sounds good. Thanks Ashley" Caleb responded.


After starting dinner, Ashley decided to head upstairs to change into something more comfortable. As she walked past Hanna's room, she happened to glance in and noticed something strange laying on her bed. At first she was unsure if she should go look, thinking it might be disrespecting Hanna's privacy but considering the way her daughter had been acting and what she thought she was seeing laying there, she decided to go look.

And she was right. Laying on the bed was the positive pregnancy test.

Clearly Caleb had abandoned it when things became heated between him and Hanna earlier that day and it had been forgotten about as they existed the room.

Ashley could not believe her baby girl was pregnant, or so it seemed. All she wanted to do was march down stairs, shake her daughter awake and demand the truth out of her, but she knew that wouldn't get them anywhere, it would only make Hanna more defensive and she knew when her daughter became defensive it was hard to getting her talking. So regardless of every bone in her body telling her something different, she placed the stick back down on the bed and walked out of the room, hoping she could make it through dinner without completely loosing it on the couple.


Later that night Hanna and Caleb lay in bed, Caleb on his back with Hanna wrapped around him. "So did my mom seem strange to you during dinner?" Hanna questioned, thinking back to a couple hours prior. "Yea a bit" Caleb responded, not too considered about the topic.

Hanna weighed the reasons as to why her mother would be off "did she say anything to you when she got home" she continued. "she asked if I figured out what was wrong with you" Caleb responded, sounding slightly distracted. "And" Hanna questioned.

Caleb sighed, locking his phone and throwing it next to him on the bed, clearly this conversation wasn't ending anytime soon "and I told her you were stressed, nothing to worry about" he explained, rubbing his hand on Hanna's arm.

Hanna turned her head to look up at Caleb "she actually bought that" finding it amusing her mom would give in so easy "yea I guess" Caleb confirmed.

"You guess?, did she or didn't she"? Hanna pushed, placing her hand on Caleb's chest and sat up. Caleb rolled his eyes at his girlfriends frustration "she didn't take it any further, so I assume she believed it"

Hanna breathed out, lying back down. "well that doesn't explain why she was acting so strange during dinner, you don't think she knows, do you" Hanna worried.

"No, Han I think we are okay" he responded, moving his hands to her hair, running his fingers through the strands. Hanna closed her eyes, enjoying the comfort "I hope so" she agreed

Just as Hanna was about to fall asleep, Caleb spoke again "but speaking of people knowing" he began.

"What do you mean" Hanna asked, eyes still closed. Caleb was reluctant about pushing this topic right now "We haven't really talked about it, Han" he spoke gently.

Hanna opened her eyes, knowing this conversation wasn't going to be a light one, nor a short one. "I told you like 12 hours ago" she tried, not really in the mood to talk right now.

"I know, but I want to know what your thinking" Caleb continued. Hanna took a moment before speaking, it was a sensitive subject that she wasn't even comfortable with yet "I'm thinking Im freaking out and have no idea what were going to do" she rushed out.

Caleb took a deep breathe, he could only imagine how hard this could be for Hanna "well are you thinking about aborting"? He asked, truthfully scared of Hanna's response.

Hanna could feel her emotions starting to boil "I don't know, Caleb, I kind of thought you wouldn't let me" she admitted.

"I'm not going to force you to have a baby that you don't wanna have" Caleb decided.

Hanna sighed, to what could only be assumed as a sigh of relief, which Caleb instantly thought it was. "Is that what you want Han?".

Hanna sat up once again, this time crossing her legs to look at Caleb, "no, that's not what I meant." She paused "I just.. I don't know what I want to do, that's why I need you" Hanna explained.

Caleb adjusted the pillows behind his neck, sitting up himself, with his back against the headboard. "You have me, no matter what. I'm going to be here" he reassured her, holding out his hand to take Hanna's in his own.

Hanna smiled softly "what do you want to do?" She asked, genuinely curious of his thoughts. Caleb raised his eyebrows "honestly?" He asked. "Yea" Hanna confirmed.

Caleb took a moment before responding, looking at Hanna " I think we should keep it" he told her.

Hanna was completely shocked "are you serious" she asked, thinking he was joking. "Yea, I mean why not?" He replied "we are moving into our new place, I have a good job".

"What about my schooling"? Hanna questioned, worried about how they would handle a baby "we can figure it out" Caleb responded. "Are you sure" Hanna asked, concerned.

"Han, this is our baby, yea we are young but we love each other, I think we can handle it" Caleb admitted "you really think we can do this?" Hanna responded

"we were bound to make a baby sooner or later, and truthfully, I don't really want someone else raising our child either so I guess it's stuck with us" Caleb half joked.

Hanna smacked Caleb on the chest but before she had the chance to go any further, Caleb grabbed her arm, pulling her onto of him and kissing her hard on the lips. "So we are having a baby" Hanna asked once they pulled away "we're having a baby" Caleb agreed, a little too loudly.

"Shhhh" Hanna laughed, placing her finger on Caleb's lips, a huge smile spread across her face "unless you wanna have an uncomfortable talk with my mom right now"

Little did Hanna nor Caleb know, just outside her door was Ashley Marin who had caught the tail end of the conversation. So it was true, her daughter was pregnant, and apparently keeping the baby as well
