She Deserves That↠Haleb

Chapter 3

Hanna woke up in an unrecognizable bed with a recognizable grasp around her lower stomach. The glistening sun coming in through the window made Hanna relax slightly. Suddenly all of the events of the previous night came flooding back. Spencer kissing Caleb, talking about her baby, but most importantly, Jordan hitting her. In an instant Hanna was filled with rage and betrayal. She sat up slightly to lean against the head of the bed making sure to not wake Caleb in the process.

She stared down at him and how his body was peacefully sleeping and slightly smiled. She looked to the bedside table and noticed her ring sat there. Hanna didn't want to put it back on. The truth was, she had been growing apart from Jordan for the last few months. She didn't get that exciting feeling in her stomach when he looked at her anymore. Last night had proved to her that she was still truly, madly in love with Caleb. Even after everything they had been through together she knew he would do anything to make her happy.

Caleb slowly fluttered his eyes open and smiled up at Hanna. She had a sad smile on her face and turned to look away slightly. Caleb was confused by her actions and sat up to face her.

"Good morning," He said while using his fingers to turn her head so it was in line with his face.

"Hey," Hanna said softly.

Caleb knew Hanna well and could detect any kind of sadness, "what's wrong?"

"Do you have feelings for Spencer?" Hanna questioned with much pain in her voice.

All of a sudden Caleb understood everything. He needed to explain what was really going on before Hanna got the wrong idea. "Han," he breathed. "Spencer was a good friend to me when I had no one. She is a sweet person but she's not you. I don't have romantic feelings for her."

"Well she has romantic feelings for you," Hanna responded with unhappiness. She was confused by his last comment; Spencer wasn't me but what did that have to do with anything? She thought.

"I've only ever loved you Hanna," Caleb said while blushing.

"Loved?" Hanna asked.

"Hanna," Caleb started sternly. "You're getting married," He tried to reason.

"Maybe," she whispered with her head down. At that Caleb raised an eyebrow. She looked up at him with teary eyes and fell into his tight embrace. Caleb knew Hanna was hurting and all he wanted to do was take that pain away. He couldn't bear the thought of her getting upset over a man.

Hanna sniffled and stood up to take a shower. Before she made it to the bathroom she was interrupted by Caleb's voice, "Do you want to visit your mom today? You could tell her about-"

Hanna cut him off abruptly, "That's not a good idea." Hanna was panicking about the whole situation. The last thing she wanted was to tell her mom about the biggest lie she had ever kept.

"I could come with you," he offered. "Please Han, you wanted to do this for her and we can't just put up a headstone in the middle of a small town without being questioned."

Hanna looked over to him and realized how stupid she was being. She had to face this. "Would you come, I might be able to do it with you there."

"Of course," Caleb replied delicately.

After getting out of the shower Hanna changed into the jeans and blouse she was wearing the night before and took Caleb's shirt out for him to put on.

"So I've been thinking about names," She started.

"Yeah?" Caleb said encouraging her to continue.

"Well I like the name Aimee. It means dearly loved," Hanna said with a questioning tone. Before Caleb had the chance to respond Hanna butted in, "we can think of something else. If you don't like it that is." Hanna was now feeling very self-conscious.
