Chapter 11: The Calm Before The Storm

Paige's POV:

Last night Caleb had helped me to stop the villains of Rosewood and with Caleb in the bat cave he could see everything since he was way better at computers and hacking then I'll ever be.

Caleb could tell me when a break-in was in progress and I could stop it before they even manage to break into the house. He also reported to the police when I left so they could pick up the villains right after I had beaten them unconscious.

Telling Caleb my Batgirl secret was probably the best thing I could have done because that night the cops had arrested fifteen gang members and gotten enough evidence to put those guys in for a long time.

Sadly of all the villains we didn't find anyone of A's other henchmen aside from the two who had kidnapped Hanna.

Now I was in the hospital since Caleb had left when I got back home since visitors' hours weren't until 10:00 in the morning so he thought he could do something else than just waiting at the hospital.

I walked up to the hospital reception to find out in which room she was in.

"Hi I'm here to visit Hanna Marin." I said to the woman.

"Are you a friend or a family member?" she asked me.

"Friend." I answer.

"You'll find Miss Marin in room 23. You'll find it if you follow the red line on the floor." She says and points to the door.

I walk through the door and easily finds Hanna's room. Caleb is in there with her and so is Aria and Spencer. They are all talking to Hanna who is awake and looks fine which is a good sign for me otherwise Caleb would blame me and since he knew my secret it would be very troublesome for me.

"Hi guys." I walk into Hanna's room and is greeted by smiles from everyone. It feels good to be accepted.

"Hi Paigey, I'm happy that you come." Hanna said with a smile, for one she didn't try to persuade me to let her be my roommate.

"I'm glad you're ok Hanna Banana." I said back.

"I thought I told you like twelve times don't call me that." Hanna said to me.

"Well I've told you not to call me Paigey at least a thousand times." I say back.

"Oh come on I'm injured here show some compassion `Paigey´." Hanna says to mock me. But it takes more than that to provoke me.

"Fine just for today you can call me whatever you want." I say, after all Hanna did get kidnapped she should be able to feel safe and judging from how she talks right now she is definitely feeling safe.

"Thank you Paigey. So Paigey I see you're wearing that light brown leather jacket today, it looks great on you Paigey. And Paigey, you really look like you're in great shape it's like you're even stronger than Caleb. So Paigey seen anything good on TV lately?" She asks just to mess with me but I've got a high tolerance level.

Hanna just you can call her that it doesn't mean you have to say it in every sentence. Spenser says and Hanna raises her hands in defense.

Then Hanna turns back to me. "Oh and Paigey, Em called she will be back in town tomorrow. I thought you would want to know." When Hanna said that I was very surprised since she said she'd be away with her mom for the whole week.

"Guys I love you all but I really need to get some rest now." Hanna says and we all exit the room.

In the hall I walked up to Caleb.

"Hey Caleb, you did really good last night I could really use your help some other nights but I understand if you don't want to." I say not really sure how he's going to respond.

"Last night Hanna was in deep trouble and you wouldn't be able to find her in time unless I used your computer to track down the van. I know that A won't give up and I want whoever it is to disappear, and helping the one person that is both brave and stupid enough to take on A seems to be the best way to get rid of A count me in." Caleb says looking more determined than I ever have seen him before and when we played vs mode in call of duty he took it way too serious.

"Ok but you can't tell anyone about this." I answer him.

"Don't worry if your enemies knew all of us would be a target." Caleb said and then he looks back through the window so he can see Hanna sleeping.

"Who else but me knows about this?" Caleb asks me.

"Just Emily." I answer "And don't worry about fighting A's goons can't possibly track the signal back to the bat cave so you can sit by the computer without A is able to track you down. I really don't know why I told him that.

"Good because I don't think I can do half the things you do without at least twenty years of training." Caleb says and I smirk at him.

The next day Emily got back and we both picked up Hanna from the hospital and I told her that I had told Caleb my secret since I didn't want to keep anything from her. Emily thought it was a very smart idea since he's great with computers.

The next week I was out as Batgirl every night and with Caleb in the Bat cave giving me information where A's henchmen were and I could actually stop them and even stop one of A's shipment with equipment for one of A's plans striking a crippling blow to A's plans after that night I thought A started to fear me. I had actually gotten a reputation, they said that Batgirl was a demon that ate people's souls which was cool and if they feared me they were too scared they were much easier to defeat. But I knew that A would do something big soon I just hoped I wouldn't get unmasked if my enemies knew I was only an orphan rich girl they wouldn't fear me and they would find me so lately I had Caleb searching through the whole town to find A's lair I wanted to hit A before A got me or even worse Emily.

Today Caleb and I was going to have a video game tournament and to make it more interesting we had putted actual bets. If Caleb won He and Hanna could use my Mansion for a full week if I won Caleb had to be my full-time butler for a week.

I liked Caleb he was like the brother I always wanted I actually took him with me during one of my training sessions in my home gym and he got a bit shocked when he saw me bench press weights that was heavier than Hanna, but when he we played video games we were very evenly matched which made the bets more interesting.

When we sat down to start my Xbox One Emily and Hanna walked into my mansion.

"BABE" Hanna yelled and ran towards us throwing herself into Caleb's arms kissing him passionately.

"Hi sweetheart" Emily said and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek. Even if it was less than what Caleb got I didn't complain.

"Hi Emily, what brings you here?" I asked a bit worried that I had missed an anniversary.

"Well Hanna and I is going shopping to get Hanna's mind of things and we would want both you and Caleb to come with us." Emily said.

"I'm sorry babe but I've already promised Caleb that will have a video game tournament and you know I don't like shopping." I say to Emily it's true I have never liked shopping but I do enjoy being with Emily, only this time Caleb is here and he doesn't like shopping either.

"Come on babe" Hanna says to Caleb "Convince Paige that she is wrong." Hanna says and Caleb starts staring at her.

"Really Hanna do you want a guy to convince his friend that shopping is more fun than video games?" Caleb said showing that he won't try to talk me out of the tournament.

Just as Hanna was about to say something Emily started whisper something in Hanna's ear and Hanna was almost laughing when Emily was done whispering. Then Emily turned to me and Caleb.

"You know what why don't we make a bet, I'm going to have an arm wrestling match with Paige and if I win both of you have to come with us to the mall." Emily says.

"And you also have to carry our shopping bags Hanna" Jumps in.

"And if you win you both will come with us to the mall but Hanna and I will only try on bikinis and lingerie how does that sounds like?" Emily said very confident she was an athlete but I know I'm stronger than she is.

I looked at Caleb and he nodded at me so I accepted and we walked to the table and me and Emily putted our right elbows on the table and locked our fingers getting a hard grip.

Hanna stepped up and started counting "Three... Two... One... Begin."

And I started strong and I could already feel that I was too strong for Emily to win so I moved her hand slowly to the left and stopped when she was just a few inches away from losing. I looked up and gave her I smirk knowing that I was about to win.

Suddenly Emily leaned towards me and kissed me and started to suck on my bottom lip and moving her tongue to deepen the kiss then she pulled away and I noticed that my hand was pressed against the table with Emily's hand on top of it Emily had won.

When I was about to get up Emily putted her left hand on the back of my head and pulled me in for another kiss this time I opened my mouth and our tongues danced the dance we had perfected and when we broke the kiss Emily looked at me and said.

"That was a consolation prize for being an awesome girlfriend." And then she and Hanna walked to the door.

"Come on Caleb we didn't set any rules so she won." I said as both Caleb and I followed our girlfriends.
