Hi everyone! Thanks for all of the requests and reviews! I'm having so much fun writing these! I'm sorry it's been awhile. I went to NYC on Wednesday and just got back yesterday. I tried to get some chapters out before I left, but didn't have time. I am going to try to get chapters up for The Other Daughter and Little One soon too! I hope you like what I've written here! As always, keep those requests coming! Enjoy :)
Charm Her Way Out
This is one of my own ideas. This one is set before season 1. Hanna has a run-in with Sheriff Graham.
"Oh crap," Hanna whispered to herself as she scrambled off of the bench and hid on the other side. She spotted the sheriff walking across the street, and she didn't want to get caught being out late again.
Graham saw something move out of the corner of his eye. He sighed when he saw her. It was Hanna again. This girl was only eight, but she sure caused a lot of mischief for her age. He quietly walked over to where she was crouched behind the bench.
"We've been having these run-ins a lot lately, haven't we?" Graham said as he stared down at Hanna.
"Oh hey, Sheriff," Hanna said as she lifted her head and gave him a smile.
"What are you doing here?" he asked her with a raise of his eyebrows.
"I just dropped my quarter," Hanna said as she picked up the quarter she luckily spotted laying on the ground right next to her.
"That's not what I meant, and you know it. You're out past curfew again."
"I know but…"
"Hanna this isn't the first time this has happened. You know the rules, you're not to be out after the streetlights come on."
"The stars were just so pretty tonight, though. I had to stay out and look at them," Hanna said as she gazed up at the sky. That was the real reason she was out here so late. The sky was beautiful and Hanna wanted to enjoy the stars and bright moon.
"I suppose they are," Graham said as he glanced up and took a look for himself. After a few seconds he looked back down at the young girl. "Alright, you know the drill. Let's get you home." Graham said as he held out his hand.
"Are you going to tell on me?" Hanna asked as she took his hand and looked up at him, sticking out her lip for good measure.
Graham looked down at those bright blue eyes. He could hardly let her down when she gave him that look.
"You could just let me climb through my window and forget all about this," Hanna added, throwing in her sweet smile to go with her pleading eyes. That usually sealed the deal with Graham. He has never once told on her.
Graham sighed. Now she was adding that charming smile to the mix. "I suppose I could let it slide this time."
"Thanks, Graham. You're the best," Hanna said with a grin.
"Yeah, yeah. This better not happen again though."
"It won't. I promise," Hanna told him as he started to walk her back to the orphanage. She had her fingers crossed though…she knew this wouldn't be the last night she stayed out after curfew. If Graham caught her again, she would just charm her way out like she always does.
