Hanna POV

Finally school ended on Monday and I couldn't wait to get home. Monday's always sucked in general but it was worse since I had waited all day to tell the girls my big news. I was giving Spencer a ride to my place and I almost wanted to tell her everything on the car ride.

We got to my house and I showed Spencer around my room so she could get familiar with it. A few minutes later the others arrived and I was relieved that I could finally tell them after waiting all weekend.

"So what's the big news, Hanna?" Emily asked after we were all seated in my room.

Emily and Aria were sitting on my couch, Spencer and Mona were on my bed, and I was actually standing because I was too anxious and excited to sit.

"You know that guy that I like? And how you told me that I shouldn't be afraid of my feelings?" I asked and they all nodded their heads. "Well, I'm finally ready to tell you guys about him. His name is Caleb Rivers and I told him how I felt about him. Then he kissed me."

"Details please!" Mona demanded.

I spent the next twenty minutes telling them how we met, how I let him live in my basement, that I jumped in the shower while he was in it, how he was about to leave, how I told him how I felt, then how he kissed me.

"Wow, that's pretty crazy but it totally works for you." Spencer commented.

"How come you didn't tell about him sooner?" Aria asked me.

"Well, at first he was just some annoying guy. Then he helped me out so I let him stay in the basement. When I started getting feelings I ignored them since I was scared to be with someone else after breaking up with Sean. But of course you guys picked up on it so I followed your advice and told him how I felt." I told them. "Are you guys mad that I didn't?"

"No!" They all shouted at the same time.

"We're not mad at you, Han. I totally get it. It's scary to be with someone new after you've broken up. And especially when you and Sean were together as long as you were." Emily comforted me.

I appreciated her words because she had recently experienced the same thing as me, only it wasn't the same. She had dated Ben for a long time before breaking up, and now she had just started a new relationship. Last week she came out to us and her parents. She told us that she was dating Maya, the girl she had introduced us to a few days before. All of us were happy and supportive of her, but her parents were taking longer to come around. Kind of like my mom was coming around to the idea of me being with Caleb.

"You seem happy with him." Spencer observed.

"Yeah, I am." I said and I couldn't keep the smile off my face. "But I haven't even told you guys the first part yet!"

"There's more?" Aria asked.

"On Friday my mom found his stuff in the basement and kicked him out. I got mad at my mom and followed him when he left. That night we went camping and we talked about a lot of personal stuff. Anyways we started making out, and later that night I had my first time."

"Really!?" They all asked in excitement.

"Yeah, and it was awesome." I told them.

Of course the girls had questions about me and Caleb. And I gladly answered. I loved being able to talk about stuff like this with them. We never really talked about me and Sean because it never really went anywhere, but with Caleb things were moving fast and I was enjoying the ride.

"How was your weekend, Spence?" I asked after the girls had stopped asking questions about me and Caleb.

I really wanted to know why Jason had told us that we couldn't bother her.

"It was good, Hanna, thanks for asking." She replied as if nothing really happened but I knew something had.

"Did you do anything special?" I persisted.

"Yeah, sort of." She shrugged with her vague/annoying response.

"So, how come Jason told us not to bother you on Friday night and Saturday?" I came right out and asked.

"The charges against Toby were dropped on Friday. So with Jason's help Toby and I were able to spend the evening together. And then Saturday morning he got takeout from The Apple Rose Grille and we had a picnic breakfast at our spot." She finally answered.

"And where exactly is your spot?" Emily asked her.

"Yeah right, I'm not telling all of you." She stated shaking her head.

"Why not?" Mona asked mischievously.

"Because you'd find out when we were going and spy on us." She said, she knew us too well.

"Why do you have to be right about everything?" I sighed in frustration.

"So how was the weekend for the rest of you?" Spencer asked ignoring my comment.

"My weekend was great; I finally broke up with Noel." Mona told us as if it was an everyday thing.

"You did, why?" Aria asked her curiously.

"We've been heading in different directions for a while. He's so concerned with sports, parties, and his football buddies. He only got together with me because both of us were popular. And that's why I stuck with him for so long, but I finally had enough."

"I'm really sorry, Mona." Emily said sweetly.

"Thanks, Em, but I'm fine, really. I'm the one that broke up with him." Mona assured her. "And there's this other guy that I've thought about dating. But I haven't said anything yet and he's just a friend."

"Can you tell us who this other guy is?" Spencer questioned.

"No, I'll tell you when I'm good and ready, and only if something happens. If it's meant to be it'll happen without help from you guys." Mona stated firmly.

"Who said anything about helping?" I asked innocently, even though she was just like Spencer and right on the money.

"Oh, I know all of you well enough that if I said one word you'd be giving him hints nonstop." She laughed. "Besides, you, Emily, and Spencer were friends with someone and became a couple before you told us."

"That is true." Spencer agreed with her. "But I never said Toby and I were dating. We just celebrated him being free and then had breakfast together."

"Oh please, it was a date and you know it, an unofficial one maybe but still a date. And it's only a matter of time before you tell us that he kissed you and you become the perfect happy couple." Mona told her with a hint of teasing in her voice.

Spencer didn't reply. But just sat there shaking head and there was a slightest hint of a blush. I knew there was something she wasn't telling us, but for once I didn't push.

"Well, since we're all here talking about relationships, I guess it's my turn." Aria said hesitantly and suddenly we all focused our attentions on her.

"But you're not dating anyone, Aria." Emily pointed out.

"Actually I am." She admitted. "I met this guy at a pub the day before school started. We talked and then we started making out. And on the first day of school I walked in and there he was. Standing behind the desk getting ready to start our English class."

"You're dating Mr. Fitz!" I shouted at her and the other looked too shocked to respond.

"Is that why you called him Ezra that day during rehearsal for the school play?" Mona asked her.

"You caught that?" Aria cringed.

"Yeah, and I think everyone else in the room did too." Emily told her sympathetically.

"So what's it like to call a teacher by his first name?" Spencer asked her.

"Forget about calling him by his first name. What's it like to kiss Mr. Fitz?" I budded in.

"Oh please do not answer that!" Emily begged. "I don't need to be picturing you and Mr. Fitz making out during English class."

"Calling him Ezra isn't weird, since that's what I called him before I knew he was my teacher. And you guys can call him that too, outside school of course. But it is weird when I have to call him Mr. Fitz at school." Aria answered.

And just like they had when I told them about Caleb, the girls and I started questioning her about Mr. Fitz, I mean Ezra.


"So what do you think of Aria dating a teacher?" I asked Spencer as I drove her home.

"A part of me thinks it's destructive and will ultimately end badly. But a part of me also thinks it's really hot." Spencer gave her opinion.

"I know, I probably wouldn't something like that, but it is cool to think about." I agreed.

"So all of us are in some form of relationship." She commented. "Aria is dating our English teacher, you're dating a cute, computer hacker, Emily is dating Maya, Mona has a friend she might be interest in, and I'm with Toby."

"What exactly is going on between you two, because I know there's more to the story than what you told me and the others."

"What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about the way you tried to hide the blush on your face. And don't try to deny because I saw it. Mona said it wouldn't be long until Toby kissed you and you were a happy couple and you blushed as red as a rose." I stated to let her know she wasn't getting out of this.

"That's because he already did kiss me." She admitted quietly and the blush returned.

"Really?" I asked excited and she nodded. "I am so happy for you, Spence! That's so great I was hoping something would happen between you two. But why didn't you say something earlier?"

"I don't know; it's hard to put into words. I guess I didn't want to answer a million questions. Like are we a couple, is he a good kisser, are we dating now? Plus I was a little afraid that it would lose meaning if I talked about it too much. Like keeping it between just me and Toby made it a special secret and was something we shared together. Am I making any sense?" She said shyly.

"Oh, I totally get it. That's why I didn't say anything about Caleb at first. And it's also why I didn't give too many details on our first time. Keeping things between you and the person you're with does give special meaning to something. But it's okay to tell your friends some things too even if you do wait a while." I assured her and hoped I was helping.

"I'm just glad you don't think that I didn't want to tell you. I did, I just wasn't sure how. Toby is the first guy I've ever kissed and the first guy I've ever been with. Except for those two awful dates that Ali set me up on during freshman year. So I'm sort of nervous about everything."

"Don't be nervous, Spence. You're always great at everything and you're a fast learner. You're new to this now but you'll get used to it and feel more comfortable." I told her and then decided to lighten the mood a bit. "So, is he a good kisser?"

"Hanna!" She tried to scold but ended up laughing. "Yeah, he is. But please don't ask if we're officially dating because I don't know what we are. He kissed me and then a few minutes later Jason came out and started teasing us. After that Toby left and even though I called him later we didn't really confirm anything. We just know that we both enjoyed the kiss and that we want to wait and see what happens."

"Jason caught you guys? Wow, I bet you were just full of brotherly love for him." I laughed.

"Oh at that moment I couldn't have been happier to have a big brother." She replied totally sarcastic.

"Do you want to kiss Toby again?" I asked her.

"Yes, definitely."

"Well then, you don't need to know what you guys are. Sometimes there isn't a word for what two people are. You just need to know and remember that Toby is a great guy and that whatever comes out of this is going to be amazing. You two are meant for each other."

"Thanks, Han, you're the best and I'll remember. And I think that you and Caleb are meant for each other and will have an amazing relationship too." Spencer said with a smile and I couldn't help but smile at her words too.
