Hanna's POV

Beep Beep Beep, That's the sound of the wretched alarm clock that wakes me up at 6am every morning and drives me frigging insane! To make things ten times worse Caleb isn't even here this weekend because he is away on a business trip for three days. He was supposed to be back yesterday but couldn't book a flight so he is staying with an old friend until he can book another one. Meanwhile I am dealing with two teenage girls who couldn't be more engrossed in their love lives if they tried! Well actually I can't say anything... I had 'young love' once too!

I hear the moans and groans of my daughter Kylie from her bedroom across the hall and I sigh. Surely she would be happy that it's a Monday morning so she can see her new boyfriend Freddy - or "perfect hair"- as she repeatedly calls him. (Though I have to admit that his hair is pretty perfect, but I can't tell Kylie this cause she will start hyperventilating and screaming and fangirling until she drives herself insane... if she hasn't already done so!)

Anyway, I drag myself out of the warm, cosy Heaven that is my double bed, slip on my pink slippers and head downstairs to make breakfast.

Kendall is seated at the table flicking through what I assume to be socia media while drinking one of her protein shakes and Kylie... she is attempting to make an omelette but is failing miserably. She should just stick to what she is good at- that being fashion- instead of attempting to become the chef of the house.

The omlette is burning, Kylie is yelping every four seconds as she keeps burning herself on the pan and Kendall just sits there in her own little world blocking everyone else out while welcoming her social life in. Welcome to the Marin House... You don't wanna live here!

Two hours later

I shove Kendall and Kylie out the door- fully dressed and make up on- very slowly and with quite a bot of force.

"Kylie move your ass before I ground you for a week so you can't see 'perfect hair'!" I demand. Let's just say I have never seen Kylie run so fast to the car in all my life! Kendall just laughs and climbs into the passengers seat like the normal, chilled out teenager that she is. Why can't Kylie be like her sister?

Fifteen minutes later, I pull up at the school. I watch Kendall walk up to Noah and peck him on the lips and I can't help but smile. Kylie on the other hand, runs towards Freddy like a whirlwind- her short hair flowing out behind her- and pulls him into an affectionate but exuberant hug that I am pretty sure has just cut off the blood travelling to his brain... any moment now he is gonna pass out with the tightness of the hug he has just received. She runs her hands through his 'perfect hair' and I can't help but laugh.

I know from my own past experience what it's like to have a boyfriend with perfect hair! Caleb's long hair drove me crazy! I would dream about us two in the tent... by ourselves... in the middle of a forest with just the animals of the night surrounding us and I would picture running my hands through it and him doing the same. It was magical. That time in the tent was magical. I still have memories of us ... doing it. They are fresh in my mind like it happened yesterday. I will never forget what Aria and the others 'baby Hanna and Caleb/ Haleb.' It was cute and flattering years ago when we were young adults but now it just sounds weird that we have a ship name. (But it' a pretty good one nevertheless)

It fills me with happiness when I see my own two daughters happy and inlove. It fills me with joy and contentment just knowing that a guy out there has accepted them for who they are. I will never forget what Caleb's reaction was when I told him who I really was that night at the tent. It started with us roasting marshmallows- well I was roasting them and Caleb was watching me in awe of my camping skills- and he said, "Alright Jungle Jane? What gives?" I just laughed at him and said, "What'd you mean?"

"You're the queen of heels and handbags Hanna but out here you're Dora The Explorer." I laughed and flicked my hair out awkwardly. "D'you have any other personalities I should know about?"

I could feel my face drop slightly at this daunting question. The question thag I had hoped he would never ask me. Truth is that I have no idea who I am right now. But if he really likes me then surely he wouldn't judge me. I decided to tell him nevertheless.

I took a deep breath and said, "I spent five summers at Fat Camp."

"You?" He was clearly in shock.

"My nickname was Hefty Hanna." How I loathed that name! How I loathed Alison Dilaurentis in fact!

"You didn't have to tell me that." He says.

"I want you to know who I am..."

"And it still is to this very day. I wanted him to know who I really was... or at least try to explain to him who I once was."

Kendall and Kylie look at me with wide eyes at my 'young Hanna and Caleb story' like little owls. I laugh at them slightly. It's evident- due to their expressions- that they were not expecting that.

"Oh My Godddd! Baby Hanna and Caleb!" Kylie shouts at the top of her lungs, very enthusiastically.

I nod my head smiling at my over excited daughter. "Yup! We were young once too you know."

Kendall gets up from her seat opposite me and wraps her arms around my neck. "I'm happy you found Caleb. You're perfect together." She says and a tear prickles in my eye without any warning. I blink repeatedly. I cannot get all emotional in front of my daughters. This is their time to be emotional around me!

I realise then that what Kendall is saying is one hundred percent true. "Yeah... I know we are Kenny." And I really meant it...

QUOD: What's your favourite emoji/emojis?
AOTD: ✌🏻️👌🏻🙌🏻😍🔥- I use these quite a lot if you haven't already noticed!

Awwww let's take a minute and just appreciate a baby Haleb! Baby Haleb was so frigging adorable and I felt like that needed to be said so why not put it into a fanfiction and make Hanna tell the story to her two daughters that have just been opened up to the world of young love! THANK YOU FOR READING! And i promise to update more often! I was fangirling too much over this guy called Freddy Parker (not our Freddy Parks someone different) and also I just wasn't in the mood to write... BUT NOW IM BACK! Yays! Please comment and vote! Thanxs Ya!
