Hanna POV

Caleb had been driving for a long time. I was getting sleepy, but I was determined to stay up. Every once in a while, I'd look over at Caleb. His eyes were glued to the road.

I noticed we were outside of NYC. Not too far, but far enough. Then I started to recognize where we were.

I looked up at Caleb and for the first time in an hour, I said something. "Hey Caleb, why does this road look so familiar?"

Caleb looked at me in shock. I guess because I hadn't said anything the whole ride. "Maybe because it is familiar." As he finished, he placed his hand on top of mine, which was lying on my lap.

"I love you, Hanna. I'm sorry for earlier, for pissing you off. It wasn't my intention." He said looking straight into my eyes.

"I should be the one apologizing. I'm always grumpy and rude and bad mouthing every situation. You, you always see the good in things. That's why I need you." Hot tears were now forming in my eyes.

I managed to hold my tears in. Caleb just smiled at me and continued on the road. I then remembered where we are. Everything just came back to me in a flash. All the memories we spent here, all the great news, everything.

Caleb must've seen the tears now flowing down my face. He pulled into the parking lot as if it were our home. I knew exactly where we were at.

"You remember this place." Caleb stated, grinning at me in the most obvious way.

I smiled at him, "How could I forget?"

*FLASHBACK*

I lived in New York. That's where I went for college. I had broken up with Caleb our freshman year. Things just weren't the same anymore. It was the summer between junior and senior year, so we'd been broken up for three years. Emily and Alison were a couple, but other than them, every other couple were broken up.

They came up with a plan for us all to spend a whole entire two weeks with each other, including the boys. They put us each in the room with our ex. Caleb and I, Spencer and Toby, and Aria and Ezra. Off course, we didn't know anything about it. We just thought it was gonna be us 5 girls.

Caleb and I were constantly arguing. The first few days were a living hell. But that third day, everything changed.
-
It was midnight. We were getting ready for bed and of course, it was only one bed. Caleb slept on the pullout couch while I slept on the bed.

Caleb was in the shower. I had already gotten in. I was lying on the queen size bed watching TV. All of a sudden, Caleb came out the bathroom with very damped/soaked hair and a tile rapped around his waist. I immediately responded.

"WHAT THE HELL, CALEB?" I screamed across the room, looking directly at him.

"Oh, shit. I forgot you were in here." He said while looking down at the tile rapped around his waste. He then looked back up at me.

"I didn't think it would bother you though." He stated with a smirk.

"Caleb! Please don't. We're not a couple anymore. We've been over this a thousand times!" I said, meaning every word I said.

"Hanna, why does it have to stay like that. I still love you, you' know."

I was speechless. I knew part of me would always love Caleb, he was my first real love. But I didn't know the feeling was mutual.
