Haleb - I never stopped loving you

Chapter One (Caleb)

Shit. I feel nervous as hell. Hanna is back in Rosewood. I have to see her today. And her fiancé. I feel like my day couldn't get any more stressful as I walk towards Lucas' apartment, where she's staying. Spencer asked me to go over and check out her phone to see if I can override A.D's defences and track them down, but I don't think I'll be able to do anything apart from throw up with nerves right now. I haven't seen her since we broke up and to top it all off, I have to watch her cuddle up to her new fiancé, Jordan. I miss her so much but from what I've heard, she seems happy and I have no right to walk in and ruin that. I open the door to the building and climb the stairs, my heart pounding and my palms sweating. As I walk towards her door, I can hear screaming from inside.

'We broke up ages ago! I'm not going to suddenly ditch you just because he walks through the door! You are such a selfish prick!'

'I'm being selfish?! You're the one who is trying to hook up with your ex boyfriend right under my nose! Why the hell is he even coming?! So he can waltz in here and steal away my fiancé?!'

'I've told you, I can't say! And I can't believe you don't trust me! He's just a friend! Ugh I hate you so much right now!'

I'm about to open the door when it swings wide open with a loud crash against the wall and Hanna storms out. Holy crap she looks gorgeous. Her long, blonde curls fly over her shoulder as she walks and she's wearing a skin tight, bright red dress with huge, black stilettos. Her curves look unbelievably beautiful under that fabric and her slim, angelic face looks exactly how I remember.

'Oh my god Caleb, hey. It's so good to see you' She looks down at the floor and stutters. 'Sorry I- No I meant.... Sorry if you heard that. It's Jordan, he's not a huge fan of you... Or me right now. I'm sorry we had to meet again like this. Shall we go grab a coffee or something?'

'Yeah it's great to see you too. You look amazing- no wait- you don't- well, you do but I'm not...' I have no idea what to say. I can't believe she's standing in front of me.

'Caleb, it's okay. I know we're just friends now'. She reaches out and embraces me. I feel the warmth of her flawless, fair skin against mine and her luscious, golden hair falling over my arms. I just want to kiss her. The last few years have been unbearable without her.

'Sorry, I didn't mean to make it awkward. I'd love to go to The Brew. I haven't been there since- well you know. Since I left'. I say nervously. She steps back and smiles softly. I can see tears in her eyes and I can't bear to see her cry. Not yet at least. I pick up my bag off the floor and walk, Hanna following closely behind.

A Few Hours Later

Hanna's iced coffee comes flying out of her nose as she snorts with laughter. I can barely keep it together either. I'd forgotten how much we laughed when we're together and now I have her back, at least for a few hours, I want to make the most of it. We've completely ignored the reason I'm actually here, to check out Hanna's phone, and spent hours sitting in the corner of The Brew, talking about our last few years. When we finally stop laughing, I check the time on my phone and realise how long we've been here.

'Crap'. I say. I can't believe we've talked for 4 hours. It flew by.

'Everything okay?' Hanna asks, sipping at her coffee.

'Yeah, yeah. It's just I had stuff to do and I didn't realise how late it was. I should probably get going' I stand up with my keys and phone and start to say goodbye to Hanna. She looks disappointed as I start to leave and I can't help feeling like an idiot for hurting her. 'Sorry Han, I didn't mean it like that.'

'It's okay. I'll see you soon. Bye' She says softly. I smile at her and as I walk away, she grabs my arm and I turn back. 'Caleb...' She whispers. 'I don't want to go home'

I look up at her eyes and I can sense she's scared about going back to Jordan. I can't leave her like this.

'You don't have to. Come back to mine for as long as you need to'. I say. Her face lights up as she stands up and follows me out to the sidewalk.

'Thank you.' She mouths. I can't remember what I was thinking, apart from about how much I loved her, when I leant in to kiss her. To my surprise, she kisses back and I feel a  warm tingle rush from my toes up through my whole body. She puts her hands on my back and I put mine on her hips, feeling her gorgeous curves and slender waist. God I've missed this. I pull her in closer and with our bodies pressed together, we walk back to my apartment.

At Caleb's

We run through my front door, laughing and kissing at the same time. I run my hands down her back and unzip her dress. She turns around and walks me over to my couch, pressing me down onto the cushions and unbuttoning my shirt. We roll off onto the floor, still kissing, Hanna still smiling into my eyes. Kneeling up, I whisper 'I love you so much' into her ear as she shudders and giggles, whispering it back. I finally get her dress off and lie her down on the floor and I can feel the warmth of her bare stomach against mine and her beautiful, round breasts, pressing against me.

'Never leave me again' She says gently, as she unbuckles my belt and throws my pants across the floor. I straddle her and she grinds her hips up against mine, shuddering and moaning.

'I won't. I promise' I say back. I unhook her bra and look into her sparkling, blue eyes as I do so. They glitter and shine just how I remember and a tiny dimple appears on her cheek as she smiles up at me. I have no idea how anyone could treat Hanna like Jordan does. She is so perfect and deserves so much more. I finally lean down onto her and she shivers with delight as I push into her slowly and continue to kiss down her soft neck. She rolls on top of me and we set a pace, Hanna smiling with pleasure. I push faster and Hanna lies down on top of me, pushing herself down onto me. She's so gorgeous and anything a man could wish for. She looks up and moans with pleasure as we start to slow down and I let myself go. Only now do I remember how much our sex was about how much we loved each other, nothing else, and how good it was and still is.

Afterwards, she lays down next to me and we stare at each other, my hands resting on her hips and hers on my head, not saying a word. We don't need to talk to understand one another. I think that's what set our relationship apart from any other. Just as we're starting to drift off to sleep, my stomach lurches with worry, as I remember Jordan. I've just slept with his fiancé. And I'm scared as hell that he'll find out.
