It's afternoon and Hanna rings the doorbell at Spencer's. She takes a look toward Caleb's house as she waits for her friend to answer the door. The house seems quiet and she doesn't see people working on the outside as in the last days. She assumes that they must be working in the inside, maybe in the first floor of the house as Caleb told her. She feels sorry about how bad she treated him the night before and thinks that she should definitely stop by at his place when she leaves her friend's house and apologize to him.

Spencer "Hey, Han" she greets Hanna, interrupting her thoughts and catching her by surprise.

Hanna "Oh, hey Spence!" she says while turning to her.

Spencer "Come in, Aria is already here"

Hanna steps into the house and they go to the kitchen.

Aria "Hi, Han!"

Hanna "Hey!" she greets her back and sits on a stool next to her at the kitchen island.

Spencer "Want some coffee?" she asks Hanna.

Hanna "Yes, please"

Spencer "Toby and I have been talking about his birthday, he doesn't want to throw a party or anything. We are just going to my parents' lake house on Friday. I thought you guys could join us on Saturday for his birthday and stay the night there of course, what do you think?"

Aria "Sounds good, I'll talk to Ezra, but I guess we are going"

Hanna "Yeah, I'm going too… It's about time we enjoy the summer, I could use some sunbathing…" she casually says, but then she raises her eyebrows and smiles amused while staring at Spencer. "Why don't you want us to go on Friday as well, though? Are you planning some kind of naughty birthday surprise for Toby?"

Spencer smiles mischievously. "Maybe… but I'm not telling you" she says and hands her a cup of coffee.

Hanna laughs.

Spencer "Well… but there's only one little detail left… the rooms" she says and looks at Hanna "Toby and I are obviously staying in the main room, Ezra and Aria, and Alison and Emily are occupying the two other rooms with double beds, and there is only one room left… the one with two single beds… would you be okay with sharing that room with Caleb? Toby wants him to come as well"

Hanna "Sure, no problem"

Spencer "Great"

Aria "Well, you already shared a bed with him, a room is nothing to you" she teases Hanna.

Hanna "Did I just hear Alison talk?" she asks to Spencer, narrowing her eyes, pretending to be confused.

Aria laughs and nudges her with her elbow.

Hanna "Anyway, your who-sleeps-in-each-room little issue isn't solved yet"

Spencer "Why?" she asks confused.

Hanna "I was with Emily yesterday and things between her and Alison aren't going so well"

Aria "Oh, that explains why none of them are here now"

Hanna "Anyway, maybe they make up before the weekend, but you should keep it in mind"

Spencer "I hope so… it would be awkward for them even if they don't share a room"

Hanna "Uh huh… I can sleep with Alison and Emily can share the room with two beds with Caleb, I'm sure she won't mind" she offers although what she really wants is to be the one who shares the bedroom with him.

Spencer nods.

Aria "How was Camp Mona, Han?"

Hanna of course leaves out everything about she and Caleb while telling them about the party and then they change the subject and keep chatting for a while before Aria takes off, leaving only Spencer and Hanna in the house. At some point, Spencer's phone starts to ring.

Spencer "Han, I have to take this, it's from work"

Hanna nods.

Spencer "I'll be right back" she says and leaves the kitchen.

Shortly after, when Hanna is just sitting there, using her phone, she hears the front door open and then some voices coming from the living room. She recognizes them, they are Toby and Caleb. She stands up and goes there.

Hanna "Hey" she greets them.

Toby "Hanna"

Caleb "Hey, Han"

Toby "Did you see Spencer?"

Hanna "She got a call from work, I think she went upstairs"

Toby "Be right back" he tells Caleb while heading for the stairs.

Hanna "I'm really sorry for what happened last night, Caleb"

Caleb gives her a smile. "For what?"

Hanna "For treating you like shit maybe?"

Caleb chuckles. "Nothing that you hadn't done before, it was kind of a déjà vu" he jokes and shrugs. "Really, don't worry" he shoots her a reassuring smile.

Hanna "Thank you" she smiles back. "Oh, how much do I owe you for the gas?"

Caleb "Nothing"

Hanna rolls her eyes playfully. "I forgot that you were rich"

Caleb laughs. "I'm not rich… anyway, now that I think, a kiss would be fine"

Hanna "Okay" she says, and to his surprise, she approaches him.

Caleb smiles widely the moment Hanna wraps her arms around his neck, and of course he wraps his around her waist as well… But Hanna only places a brief kiss on his cheek.

Caleb "That kiss doesn't even cover a tenth of your debt" he chuckles and presses her body against his in a hug, then he nuzzles his nose against her neck as Hanna giggles.

Hanna "Well, I guess I'll pay you in some days then"

Caleb raises his head from her neck and looks at her. "Let's get together later?"

Hanna "Mmm… I'm going out for dinner with my dad, I think I only saw him once since I got here… tomorrow maybe?"

Caleb nods.

Hanna gives him another smile and takes one of her hands to his face, she uses her fingers to pucker his lips and presses a peck on them, catching him by surprise. Then, smiling amused, she pulls away from the embrace.

Caleb "You are torturing me"

Hanna "You asked for a kiss" she says playfully while going to sit down on the couch.

Caleb "Yeah, a real one"

Toby comes downstairs, interrupting their banter. "Let's go" he says to Caleb and heads toward the front door. "Bye, Han. See you around" he says to Hanna while opening the door.

Caleb "Bye, Han" he greets her as well before following Toby outside.

Hanna "Bye"

/

Evening.

Hanna is back at home. She is finishing touching up her make-up when her phone buzzes next to her on the dressing table. She grabs it and gets a text from her dad: "Hanna, I'm sorry but I have to cancel on you, something came up. Maybe we can reschedule for next week. See you soon"

Hanna rolls her eyes and throws her phone on her bed. What is with everyone that they just put her off for next week? she thinks as she he grabs a makeup remover wipe and cleans her face.

Hanna "Seems like it's only you and me again for dinner" she says to Chocolate who stares at her from the bed. Then she takes her clothes off and puts on her pajamas.

/

After dinner, Hanna sits down on the couch but when she intends to raise her legs as well to lie down, Chocolate jumps on the couch too and lies down himself, beating her to it and occupying almost the whole couch with his huge body.

Hanna chuckles. "Hey!" she says amused and places a hand on his head to pet him, with her free hand, she takes the remote and turns the TV on. Shortly after, she gets a text from Ashley letting her know that she won't come back home for the night, and after texting her mom back, Hanna decides to text Caleb because she just feels like chatting with him.

Hanna: "Hey :)" she only sends.

But about half an hour passes until she gets a reply from him.

Caleb: "Hey, Han. Sorry, I just saw your text. What's up? You still out with your dad?"

Hanna: "No, I'm home. What are you up to?"

Caleb: "I'm with Toby and Ezra, we are at this new craft beer bar that opened the other day. We are having some beers, wanna come?"

Hanna considers going there for a moment, especially knowing that Ezra and Toby want Caleb to meet some Rosewood girl to have fun with, but then she looks toward the window and it's raining, and on top of that, she is in her pajamas, she already removed her makeup and she knows it's Monday night and the guys won't stay there at the bar too late, it would probably take her longer to get ready than that.

Hanna: "No, thanks. I'll just go to sleep. Bye" she rereads the text after sending it, and becomes aware that maybe it seems a bit cutting, and although she doesn't like the idea of Caleb being out with Ezra and Toby, she didn't mean to be cold, so she decides to send another extra text with the smiling face emoji.

Caleb: "OK then, I guess I'll see you tomorrow. Sleep tight, Han" but Caleb doesn't add a smiling face to his text, he adds a red heart at the end.

When Hanna reads the text, it takes everything inside her not to tell him to come over when he leaves the bar. She keeps herself from texting him back and stands up from the couch.

Hanna "Let's go to bed, Chocolate" she calls for the dog and heads for the stairs.

/

It's 3 am.

Hanna is sound asleep in her bed, cuddling with Chocolate when all of a sudden, a very loud thunder wakes her up and she sits up on the bed abruptly, half asleep and with her heart racing, causing Chocolate to wake up too and look at her.

She looks to the window from her bed and gets to see that it's raining cats and dogs outside. She can hear the wind hitting the window. Some lightning bolts illuminate her room for moments. It's definitely a strong storm, which brings her some really bad memories from a year ago when she lost Chocolate.

Hanna looks back at him, he is still staring at her. She's about to lie back down and hug him when another thunder catches her by surprise, giving her a start. At that moment, Chocolate jumps off of the bed and leaves the room, frightened.

Hanna "Fuck" she gets out of the bed to go after him.

When she gets downstairs, she goes straight to the dining room, and as it used to happen before every time when a storm broke outside, she finds the dog hiding under the table.

Hanna reaches out and places her hand on his back. Just as she thought, she can feel his body shaking in fear under her palm.

Hanna "Hey, baby, it's okay. Come here" she tells him softly but the dog doesn't move.

She decides to get under the table as well and she sits next to him. She strokes his fur while trying to calm him down, but it seems like he only gets more scared as the minutes pass by and the thunders keep sounding. After a while, seeing that none of her attempts to comfort him seem to work, Hanna decides to do something different. She stands up and goes get her phone. She knows that it's not a good time to do so, but she calls Caleb.

Caleb "Hanna?" his voice sounds raspy when he answers still sleepy, which Hanna finds hot.

Hanna "Hey, I'm sorry I'm calling you this late… but it's Chocolate, he's frightened because of the storm and I don't know what to do"

Caleb "Umm… don't know" he mumbles half asleep.

Hanna "Hey! Wake up! What do I do? What did you do when he was like this?"

Caleb sits up in his bed and tries to think more clear and pay Hanna more attention after noticing her concern. "I did nothing, Han… I told you that he didn't get scared anymore"

Hanna "Well, you lied, because he´s clearly scared to death" she says as she hugs Chocolate with her free arm.

Caleb "Really, he has been alright during storms like for the last ten months. I don't know what to tell you"

Hanna "And what am I supposed to do? I can't go back to bed and just leave him here, he is hiding under the table and his body doesn't stop shaking…" she sounds very worried.

Caleb "Okay, chill… want me to come over?"

Hanna "No, I don't want to bother you, just tell me what I can do"

Caleb "I have no idea, Han…"

Hanna "Maybe he doesn't feel safe here… I would take him there with you, but I'm not sure if I will be able to get him out from his hideout and get him in the car"

Caleb "No, stay there, you can't go out with this storm, and you shouldn't drive with him so scared in the car… I'm coming over, don't worry"

Hanna "You sure?"

Caleb "Uh huh… I'll be there soon"

Hanna "Thank you"

/

Some minutes later, the doorbell rings and Hanna knows that it's Caleb so she rushes to the door.

Hanna "Thank you so much for coming, I know it's pretty late" she thanks him as soon as she opens the door and moves to the side to let him in.

Caleb gives her a smile. "It's okay" he steps into the house.

Hanna "He is over here" she leads him to the dining room where Chocolate is still hiding under the table.

Caleb "Hey, buddy" he greets Chocolate with a grin on his face, as he always does, but the dog only gives him a look from his hiding place, he doesn't go welcome him as usual.

Hanna "See? He is not coming out from there no matter what we do" she says with a worried face and goes under the table to try to comfort Chocolate again.

Caleb "Well, I don't know what's wrong, he was completely fine with storms… he just ignored them" he says while staring at them.

Hanna "Maybe it's the house, the storm is too loud here and the windows just-" she doesn't finish her phrase because another thunder is heard and she and Chocolate get startled once again.

Caleb approaches the table, he moves a couple of chairs aside, crouches down and offers Hanna his hand. "I think I already know what the problem is"

Hanna takes his hand. "And what is it?" she asks very concerned as Caleb helps her up.

Caleb ignores her question and once she is standing as well, he wraps his arms around her waist, pulling her against him.

Hanna "Come on, help him already" she places her hands on his shoulders.

Caleb "That's exactly what I'm doing" he kisses her cheek.

Hanna looks up at him and rolls her eyes. "Doesn't seem so" she says but stays in his embrace.

Caleb chuckles. "He is not the only one scared by the storm"

Hanna "I'm not scared"

Caleb stares at her.

Hanna "Okay, I may be a little nervous, I don't like storms so much, but I'm fine, just make him calm down"

Caleb "He won't calm down until you do, Han… you are the person he trusts the most, and he can sense that you are nervous, animals can sense those things, that's why he is scared, he thinks that something is wrong, that something will happen, and you trying to comfort him only feeds that fear… and well, all these noisy thunders don't help at all"

Hanna "So I am the problem?" she asks sadly.

Caleb "Hey, I didn't say that… you just need to chill and he will relax as well… just ignore the storm, fine?"

Hanna nods, staring at him.

Caleb presses a kiss on her forehead.

Hanna "And what do I do with him?"

Caleb "Nothing, he will come out from there himself at some point… don't keep trying to comfort him, he will be fine, he is just scared"

Hanna "Okay" she finally wraps her arms around his neck and hugs him back. "Stay a while?"

Caleb "Sure" he hugs her tighter and Hanna rests her cheek on his shoulder.

Caleb slides his hands underneath Hanna's pajamas top and starts to rub her back, running his palms up and down and that's how he notices that she's not wearing a bra and bites his bottom lip in an attempt to suppress a sigh.

Caleb "Wanna go watch some TV?" he suggests, he needs to get distracted.

Hanna "Yeah, but you have to keep massaging my back like that" she pulls away from him and gives him a smile. "You are good"

Caleb smiles back and they head to the living room where they sit down on the couch. Hanna turns the TV on and gets closer to Caleb to cuddle against his side. He happily wraps an arm around her and slides his hand back underneath her top to keep rubbing her back just like she asked him. He focuses his attention on the TV as he draws random patterns with his fingertips on her very soft skin. But some minutes later, his eyes are back on Hanna, he stares at her face, taking in her perfect features which are dimly lit by the TV screen. And although Hanna is focused on the show that they are watching, she can feel Caleb's gaze on her.

Hanna smiles amused. "Stop staring" she tells him, without taking her eyes off of the screen.

Caleb "Stop being so cute then" he shoots back and causes her to grin. "You are making it harder with that smile" he stops stroking her back but keeps his palm on her lower back.

Hanna laughs and finally looks up at him. "Can I go check on Chocolate now?"

Caleb "No, you can't"

Hanna "Just taking a look?"

Caleb shakes his head. "Don't worry, he's fine… allow him some time and he will probably show up over here himself"

Hanna nods.

Caleb takes his free hand to her cheek and runs his thumb along her bottom lip. Another thunder catches Hanna by surprise making her jump a little, but she quickly relaxes and gives Caleb a slight smile. A smile that he doesn't return this time because his eyes are locked to hers and his relaxed face with his slightly open mouth only shows how bad he wants her, and by the time his eyes drop to her mouth Hanna has already decided that whatever he does next, she won't stop him.

And she read him very well, because his next move closes the distance between their faces and in no time, Hanna feels his lips pressing against hers, then she feels his lips part and embrace her entire mouth before they close around her bottom lip and squeeze it between them, making her heart race faster than the storm did before. Hanna takes one hand to his face as well and the other one to his neck as she joins him in the kiss.

Hanna starts to feel Caleb's fingers scratching softly her lower back where he still has his palm pressed against her, which he is also using to keep her close to him, so she moves the hand that she has on his neck to his nape and does the same there, she gently scratches her nails there while slightly pulling him further toward her, asking him for more deepness. Caleb tilts his head to the side and pushes his tongue into her mouth, and Hanna is more than happy to welcome it with hers.

The kiss keeps growing as the minutes pass by. It gets wetter and more passionate, and their breaths become heavier as well. At some point Caleb wraps his arms around Hanna's waist and pulls her onto his lap. Letting herself go with the passion of the moment, Hanna straddles him, wraps her arms around his neck, and keeps kissing him. Once again, Caleb slides his hands underneath her pajamas top, but this time he places his palms on her sides, he caresses her by running his hands up on her skin from her hips, but he stops right before reaching the height where the sides of her breasts protrude from her torso and then he runs his palms back down. He repeats the move again and again, always being careful not to go too up, but what he doesn't know is that is exactly what Hanna's body craves for, and it gets worse each time that his hands make their way up but don't reach the spot where Hanna wants them.

The make-out session lasts for some more minutes before Hanna suddenly breaks the kiss, and remaining in his embrace, she lies her torso on his and rests her head into the crook of his neck, her face against his skin.

Hanna "We've gotta stop" she says and her warm breath hits his skin. "We can't do this… well, I can't" she corrects herself.

Caleb "I know, Han… but this no-kisses thing is not working either" he squeezes her against him.

Hanna "Yeah, I know… I didn't mean the kisses… I'm kind of over that stupid idea, I know we can't help it"

Caleb smiles. "So?"

Hanna "I need a little break right now, from all this kissing, that's all… I just don't want to get to that point where I can't think clearly, I don't want to end up doing something that I could regret later... and I am very close to that right now"

Caleb "Hey… I know you don't want to cheat on Jordan that way, I wouldn't-"

Hanna cuts him off. "I'm not talking about that" She raises her head from his neck to look at him. "He's not the only reason why I don't want to end up sleeping with you right now… this is about us… I don't want our first time to be tainted, I don't want to have any thoughts at the back of my mind telling me that I am doing something wrong. Of course I don't want to do something like that to Jordan, but that's only a part. I'm thinking about us now, I want this to start well, whatever this is, it deserves to have a good start…" she rests her head on his shoulder. "And I want you so bad right now… I just need to stop for a little while… cool off" she confesses now that she's no longer making eye contact.

Caleb smiles widely, she is cute even while admitting that she's horny.

Caleb "I think that's a very good reason to wait, Han"

What she just told him makes him really happy, because now he knows that Jordan is not the only reason why Hanna doesn't want to get to the next level with him, she has a very good reason not to do so, and now that he is aware of it, he couldn't be in more agreement with her, he wants the same.

But he also comes out with a different solution, one that he thinks that is much better than just taking a break from kissing.

Caleb "But I think there are other things that we can try in the meanwhile…" he takes one of his hands to her face and makes her look up at him. "I want to please you, Han… let me"

Hanna smiles shyly while looking down to avoid his look again.

Caleb smiles too. "You don't have to answer right now" he leans in and connects their lips again in a tender kiss.

Hanna kisses him back for some seconds until she stops it only to speak. "I'll let you" she says very softly against his lips and resumes the kiss.

Then she takes Caleb's hands and leads them back underneath her top, but this time she makes sure to place them exactly where she wants them. A spontaneous brief moan escapes Caleb's mouth the moment he feels Hanna's boobs pressed under his palms, he didn't see that coming. And the next moan comes from Hanna's mouth, soft and just as spontaneous as Caleb's, as soon as he squeezes her breasts and starts to massage them gently. Hanna takes her hands off of Caleb's now and places them on his face, trying to lead the kiss that has become a little messy now. But she only manages to take the control of their kissing for some seconds, because Caleb lets go of her mouth to take his to her neck.

The expression on Hanna's face is a mix of happiness, joy and pleasure as Caleb keeps working on her neck and her chest. Her lips are curled up into a smile but that smile is interrupted for moments when her lips part and her mouth relaxes to let out a deep breath or even an inevitable shy moan.

Hanna "Umm… let's go upstairs"

Caleb stops moving his hands but he keeps them on her chest, he places one last kiss on her neck and raises his head from there to look at her. "There's no one else in the house, right?" he asks now, he completely forgot that unlike him, Hanna doesn't live alone.

Hanna smiles and shakes her head before starting another kiss. Caleb squeezes her breasts once more before taking his hands off of them. He wraps his arms around her thighs and stands up from the couch, carrying her along with him. Once he's on his feet, he pulls away from the kiss to be able to see where he walks and heads to the stairs. Hanna wraps her arms around his neck, holding onto him. When they get upstairs, Caleb starts to walk toward the guest room without thinking, since that's the room where they slept the night that he stayed at her house.

Hanna "Not there, baby… to my room"

Caleb looks at her with a huge smile on his face, he is not sure what makes him happy the most, she calling him 'baby' again, or the fact that she wants him in her own room this time.

Hanna chuckles. "What?" she asks, not getting why he is staring at her that way.

Caleb "Nothing… let's go to your room then"

Once they get in Hanna's bedroom, Caleb lies her down on the bed and gets on top of her right away to reconnect their lips in another passionate kiss. Hanna reaches out blindly to turn the bedside lamp on, and then she runs her hands through his hair as she kisses him desperately. But Caleb doesn't waste any time and takes his hands to the waistband of the mini shorts of her pajamas. He kisses her a little longer but then he pulls away and lowers his body as he pulls her shorts down her legs and once he gets them off, he doesn't go back to kissing her mouth, he lifts her top a little, uncovering her flat tummy and that is where he places his lips this time. He starts to place open mouthed kisses, licking and sucking her skin, but when he runs his mouth down, at the same time as he takes his hands to the edge of her panties, he feels Hanna's hand on his cheek.

Hanna "Caleb…" she makes him look at her.

Caleb pulls back from her body and looks up at her.

Hanna "I… I don't want that…" she says softly.

Caleb can't tell if she is uncomfortable, repentant or unsure, but he goes back up and Hanna is the one that looks for his mouth again and kisses him just as passionately as she did seconds ago, so it lets him know that she still wants him, and it also makes him think that maybe what he tried was just too much intimate for her, it's the first time they do something sexual after all.

Caleb "Okay… maybe something else?" he interrupts the kiss and asks her softly.

Hanna nods and Caleb gives her a smile before resuming the kiss. Without parting their lips, he moves to the mattress to lie down on his side, that way, his torso is hovering over her as they kiss and he also passes an arm in between the pillow and her neck, wrapping it around her to keep her close. He lowers his free hand and places it on her stomach.

Caleb "Is this okay?" he asks against her lips as he brushes his fingertips on the edge of her panties.

Hanna "Uh huh" she answers between kissing.

Now, with her permission, Caleb slides his hand underneath her panties and runs it down slowly and very gently until his palm is cupping her, and although he doesn't move his hand too much yet, he gets a soft moan from Hanna's mouth, followed by a bite on his bottom lip, and that encourages him to go on. He starts to move his hand against her, a little up, a little down, rubbing her most sensitive part very softly.

Caleb "God, Han…" he lets out a gasp at feeling how wet she already is for him. "Does it feel good?"

Hanna "Huh.." she only says and spreads her legs for him.

With a better access, Caleb places two fingers in between her lips and presses them against her, still going up and down, stroking her better, making her moan again and again against his mouth, but those are shy moans. He knows that she is holding herself back not to be so loud and although he would love to hear her moaning out loud, he finds that cute, and he knows that they will have time for more another time. Caleb decides to stop teasing her now and takes his fingers further up, he places his fingertips on her clit and starts to rub circles on it, which sends a shock through Hanna's whole body.

Hanna "Caleb" she moans his name.

He keeps stroking her, alternating the pressure and the pace of his moves against her and shortly after, Hanna starts to feel a pressure building in her stomach and her back arches off the mattress.

Caleb "That is, babe… come for me"

Caleb's words send her right to her edge and her legs start to shake, she finally reaches her climax and pulls away from his mouth to gasp while trying to get some air. Caleb stares at her the whole time, astonished by the cute, hot, breath-taking face that she has while coming, something that he dreamed of a lot of times, but getting to finally see it is way better than he imagined, she's beautiful, and her shut eyes along with her slightly open mouth just blow his mind.

Hanna finally makes eye contact with him and gives him a smile, still trying to catch up with her breath. Caleb smiles back and presses several kisses on her blushing cheek. Hanna turns her face to the side to meet his lips again and they share a very tender kiss.

Caleb "You are so fucking beautiful" he pulls a little back just to stare at her face again.

Hanna grins and takes the opportunity to lift her body from the mattress and sit up. "You are" she says and places her hand on Caleb's shoulder. She pushes him back and makes him lie down on his back, then she gets on top of him and starts to kiss his neck. But as soon as she lowers a hand, caressing his torso through the fabric of his t-shirt on her way down, Caleb stops her, he takes her hand in his.

Hanna "What's wrong?" she asks confused and looks up at him.

Caleb "You don't have to"

Hanna "But I want to… and you want it too, I can feel you"

Caleb didn't even try to hide his arousal this time, it was impossible given the situation in which they were moments ago, but it wasn't his intention to have her doing something for him in return either.

Caleb "Let's just ignore that"

Hanna "Why?"

Caleb "Because it's about you tonight"

Hanna "Oh, come on… I just-"

Caleb "I won't let you" he cuts her off. "Maybe next time… I do want you" he gives her a reassuring smile. "But I just wanted to do something for you this time, okay?" he turns to his side, laying Hanna back on the mattress, so now they are both lying on their sides, facing each other.

Hanna "You sure?"

Caleb nods and reaches out to place a strand of her hair behind her ear.

Hanna "Okay… but you are staying the night then"

Caleb smiles. "Okay"

Hanna gets closer to him and presses a soft kiss on his lips, then she pulls away and gets up from the bed. "I'll just go use the bathroom" she says while grabbing clean panties from her closet. "Be right back"

Caleb "Fine… just don't go with Chocolate"

Hanna smiles mischievously. "Hey! I hadn't thought of that, but now that you mention it…" she says playfully.

Caleb "If I hear you going downstairs, I'll go home" he threatens.

Hanna rolls her eyes. "Fine, I won't" she says before leaving the room.

Shortly after, she gets back and finds Caleb already under the covers, he has taken his jeans off, but not his t-shirt, he kept it on. Hanna gets in the bed as well and the first thing she does is grab the edge of his t-shirt in her hands.

Hanna "Let's take this off" she says smiley while pulling it up. "I like you shirtless"

Caleb raises an eyebrow and shoots her an amused smile, but he helps her to take it off. "Okay, but you have to wear it then" he hands her the t-shirt.

Hanna smiles even more and takes it, then she sits up and turns around to change her pajamas top for his t-shirt, her back to him not to torture him anymore, since he is not letting her give him any relief. But as much as she tries, just the sight of her bare back itself makes him take a deep breath and swallow.

Now, happy in Caleb's t-shirt, Hanna turns back around and lies down on her side, facing him. She presses a soft kiss on his lips before resting her head on the pillow.

Hanna "You make me so happy, you have no idea how much"

Caleb smiles. He takes her hand, intertwining their fingers, and rests their joined hands on the mattress between them.

Caleb "You too, babe"

Hanna grins.

There are a few seconds of silent, they just staring at each other, until Hanna speaks again.

Hanna "How did you do at the bar? Did you have a good time?" she casually asks.

Caleb "Yeah, it was a nice place, good music, and the craft beer was really good"

Hanna "Were there many people?"

Caleb "Well, there were a fair amount of people to be a Monday night"

Hanna "And there were just the three of you? Did you talk to someone else? I mean, didn't you meet someone there? Didn't Toby or Ezra run into someone they knew or something?"

Caleb chuckles. "Why so many questions?"

Hanna "I'm just curious, this is a small town… you run into people all the time" she just says.

Caleb smiles amused. "Does it have anything to do with what Toby and Ezra were talking about the other day?"

Hanna "No, what did they say? I don't even remember" she plays dumb.

Caleb smirks, knowing that she knows pretty well what he is talking about. "I told them that I was seeing someone anyway, so they didn't even try to set me up with anyone"

Hanna "You told them that you were seeing someone?"

Caleb "Yeah, I didn't lie… I just didn't mention it was you"

Hanna smiles.

Caleb "Did you really think that I would be interested in having something with someone else?"

Hanna shrugs. "You did seem interested in Sabrina the other night, and I'm sure that Alison didn't introduced her to you saying that she was gay right away"

Caleb chuckles, he finds her jealousy kind of cute and fun, it also makes him feel flattered, like she really cares about him. "I only stayed with her not to stick to Emily and Alison, or to you, of course. I was just trying to keep myself away from you, I was avoiding you, you already know why, and I was there with Alison and Emily, being the third wheel, you also know pretty well how it feels to be the third wheel… Ali just introduced us, we started to chat, I was trying to be kind, she seemed a nice girl and I didn't know anyone else at the party. Anyway, she casually mentioned this girl that she was seeing, so I learned pretty soon that she was gay, but it doesn't matter because I wasn't interested in her that way"

Hanna "Well, you are single, you can do whatever you want anyway"

Caleb "You know very well what I want" he gets closer to her and presses a kiss against the tip of her nose. "I'm not getting myself into all of this for nothing, I'm not enduring a lot of things just to be with someone else at the end… I only want to be with you" He gets serious now. "I thought I had made it clear the other day… I'm waiting for you, Hanna"

Hanna "Yeah, I know… I'm sorry… and I also want to apologize again for treating you so bad last night, I'm really sorry, I felt so bad after you left, I-"

Caleb cuts her off. "It's okay, you warned me that you were mad, I chose to stay with you anyway"

Hanna "Still… it wasn't fair that you had to pay for Jordan's shit, I shouldn't have treated you so bad… I kind of lose it when I am so pissed off, but I'll try to hold myself together next time"

Caleb nods. "I know that you are going through a break-up, it must be hard… This is such a very complicated circumstance to start something, but I'm willing to take everything that comes with you, you only have to let me do so"

Hanna "Thank you" she smiles, he's so understanding. "I'll try to sort my things out as soon as possible, I promise"

Caleb nods. "Look who is here" he smiles while looking past Hanna, toward the door.

Hanna rolls over to take a look as well and grins. "Hey, baby… come here"

Chocolate approaches the bed and takes a look as if he wanted to jump on, but there's no room.

Caleb "Let's make some room for him" he wraps his arm around Hanna's waist and pulls her toward him, pressing her back against him, spooning her.

Now that half of the bed is free, Chocolate finally jumps on and lies down next to Hanna.

Hanna "This is so perfect" she reaches out and pets Chocolate.

Caleb starts to press soft kisses on her neck. "Yeah… but we are getting him a dog bed"

Hanna "He's got one, but he never uses it"

Caleb "He had one in Allentown as well, and he did use it… he will have to start doing it again"

Hanna "Why? The three of us cuddling feels so good, all squished together"

Caleb "Yeah, you won't think the same when you feel like fucking" he just says, casually, as he keeps kissing her neck, and it causes Hanna to laugh out loud.

Hanna "Caleb!"

Caleb "What? You tell me in a few days if I am mistaken"

Hanna "I guess you are right" she says amused and reaches out to turn the bedside lamp off. "Isn't there any good night kiss for me?"

Caleb abandons her neck and they join their mouths in a tender kiss in the darkness.
