Hanna glanced at the time on her phone as she gathered her things. 12:31pm. She set her purse from her vanity, taking a quick look at her reflection in the mirror. She toyed with her honey-blonde hair, which was curled into loose ringlets; Hanna wanted to look perfect. She was going to pick up Caleb from the airport, and she hadn't seen her boyfriend in over a week.

A lot sure happened in that week, She sighed. She clasped a silver bracelet around her wrist as a finishing touch. It was the bracelet Caleb had given her for their six-month anniversary, and she wore it every time she picked him up from visiting his mom; it had become somewhat of a tradition. After adjusting her red, silky dress one last time and pulling on a black leather jacket, Hanna grabbed her purse and walked out of her bedroom, her black heels clicking against the hardwood floor.

Hanna clambered into her car and turned the keys in the ignition, going over the script she had created in her mind. She was going to wait until they got home to break the news. Hanna decided it would be best to just tell Caleb; after all, Aria was right. This wasn't really the kind of news you could make any easier to receive. She drove in silence, too nervous to listen to the radio. After parking carefully, Hanna walked into the airport and glanced up at the flight status board; his flight was on time. If all was well, Caleb would walk out of the terminal in five minutes.

Hanna stood in the airport anxiously, tapping her foot against the carpeted floor. Time was passing by at a snail's pace. She just wanted to see him, she needed to tell him-

"Caleb!" She cried happily as the brown-haired boy walked out of the terminal. Hanna raced towards him and flung herself into his arms. Caleb dropped his bags and laughed, wrapping his arms around his girlfriend and kissing the top of her head softly.

"Hi, Han," He said, pulling away from the hug gently to study her face.

"I missed you so much," She said. He smiled.

"I missed you too," Caleb responded, cupping his tanned hands around Hanna's face and kissing her softly. He picked up his bags in one hand and reached for Hanna's hand with the other.

"Let's get out of here," He grinned. Hanna's heart began to race. For a moment, she had completely forgotten about what she had to tell him, but now the bliss was shattering. Her grip tightened on Caleb's hand as they strolled out of the airport together. Would this be the last time she would ever see him? Kiss him? Would their relationship be over? Hanna couldn't help but wonder as they walked towards her silver car. Caleb popped open the trunk and threw his luggage in before sauntering over to the passengers seat. Hanna was sitting in the driver's seat, a panicked look on her face. Caleb stared at her, concerned.

"Are you okay, Hanna?" He asked. "You look like you've seen a ghost or something." Caleb reached across the glovebox and intertwined his fingers with hers. Hanna glanced over at him, and Caleb could see the fear dancing in her bright blue eyes.

"Hey, it's okay," He murmured, squeezing her hand gently. "What's the matter?"

"I'm pregnant," Hanna blurted quickly before clapping her hands over her mouth.

Shit. That is NOT how I meant to tell him. She thought, tears welling up in her eyes. Caleb stared at Hanna, speechless.

"You're what?" He had a stunned look on his face. Hanna took a deep breath. There was no going back now.

"I'm pregnant," She repeated, looking at him with a pleading gaze as teardrops tracked down her face.

"Hey, hey. It's okay," He said gently, wrapping Hanna in a tight embrace and running his fingers through her hair. "Are you sure?"

Hanna nodded tearfully. "I was late, so I took a test. It was positive. And I've been throwing up non-stop." She said, leaning her head into his chest and listening to the calming pattern of his heartbeat. She could hear Caleb exhale slowly. "Okay. Don't worry," he whispered. "We'll figure this out. Do you... know what you want to do?" Hanna sighed. "I think so. But what do you want me to do?"Caleb shook his head. "That's not my decision to make, it's your body. I'll support you no matter what." Hanna stared at him, a little taken aback. She loved Caleb with all her heart, but she wasn't expecting him to take the news this well. "Will you... leave me? If I keep the baby?" She asked tentatively. Caleb let out a chuckle. "Of course not, Hanna. I would never leave you. I mean, I've always wanted to start a family with you someday. Sure, I didn't expect that day to come this soon,"he admitted. "But you're the person I want to spend the rest of my life with. I'm here for you no matter what," Caleb told her, hugging her once more. "I'll get a job. I'll be there with you every step of the way. We'll have a beautiful family," He whispered into her hair. Hanna burst into tears. She felt like a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders; Caleb wasn't going anywhere. She had him and her best friends by her side. But there was still one big announcement to make
