It was Hanna -
'Hanna? What are you doing here?!'
'Er—, I wanted to go shopping, but I can see you're busy…so, I better go'
Emily looked at Alison and Ali nodded. Hanna was about to go when Emily said.
'Hanna? Why don't you come in? Wanna watch a movie or something? We could make some popcorn and I've got some potato chips…'
What Hanna really loved was food. She turned back, look at both of them and smiled.
'Well, why not? Sounds delicious, I mean, it sounds like fun!' and she went inside Em's house.
The girls were watching a movie and they a good time after that they decided to play a game. They agreed on Scrabble. Alison was actually really good at Scrabble and so was Emily, Hanna not so much which made her a bit angry.
'Ugh…This is boring! Could we do something less boring?!' asked Hanna…
'Like what?!'
Said Em, but Hanna wasn't listening because she was too busy looking into her phone.
'Hanna, are you listening?'
'Oh, sorry, you know what?Never mind, I gotta go anyway.'
'Where are you going all of the sudden?'
'That's none of your business. Bye' And she left.
'I bet it's Caleb. She's been acting weird since he came back. I think he's a bad influence' said Alison looking worried.
'Yea, I've noticed it.. She's been drinking and acting childish lately, but Caleb is a good guy, I don't get this..Nevertheless, it's not our business, so.. why don't we talk about something else?'
'Or we could do something instead' Alison got up, approached Emily and gave her a long kiss on the lips.
'Um, about that.. Ali, I… I'm gonna be honest with you. Even though I really like kissing you and I've been dreaming about this for a long time… At this moment.. I just can't, I'm really confused about my feelings, I mean… The rat thing that happened to Paige was because of me and I feel really guilty and I like Paige and… I don't really know what to do and I need to figure it out, but I need some time. I hope you'll understand this. I think we shouldn't be doing this right now…' It looks like somebody pull Ali's heart out of her body and put a knife through it. She was speechless. Emily put her hand on Ali's cheek. 'I do like being with you and I don't regret anything that's happened since you're back in Rosewood.' Ali looked into Emily's brown eyes and gave a small smile, she took a deep breath and said 'I understand… and I know I hurt you back then and when I was gone I kept thinking about you and I felt really bad. I shouldn't have rejected you in the locker room, but -A was watching me. Well, it wasn't just about -A, You had this great power over me which you didn't even know and I was afraid of what the power could do to me. I have never felt like this about anyone in my life and now that I'm back and honest to myself…to you. I feel different..I feel happy and alive. I should've been scared of -A or my feelings before. It could've changed everything. This thought is what keeps me awake when I go to bed, I keep imagining what it'd be like if I was honest…if I returned those feelings.' There was a silent moment for a second…You could see a tear coming down Ali's face. 'You should know that I still have those feelings for you, it didn't go away, not even when I was gone. I can be myself when I'm with you and that's really important to me, you're the only one who really knows me.' Alison looked like a beautiful little puppy, Emily thought to herself…. *She's so gorgeous even when she cries! She really means what she's just said. This makes it even harder for me…What will I do?*
Emily hugged Ali, she had no idea what she should say. She could feel Ali's heart beating so fast. They were hugging and not talking to each other for at least 15 minutes. Emily broke the silent when she asked Ali if she wanted to go to Spencer's who invited Emily for lunch. Ali agreed.
After lunch at Spencer's, the girls - Aria, Spencer, Emily and Alison talked about -A. They found it suspicious that -A hasn't written anything since the last attack on Ali. They had a feeling that -A was planning something big and dangerous, but what? After two hours Melissa came home so the girls decided to go.
Emily gave Ali a lift to Hanna's. When she turned the engine off she could feel Ali's eyes watching her.
'Thank you, Emily.'
Emily stared into Ali's eyes.
'It was nothing.'
Ali got closer to Emily and gave her a small soft kiss. When she realised what she's done, she quickly backed off. Emily looked a bit bewildered…
'I'm sorry, Emily, I shouldn't have done it… I didn't even know what I was doing..It just… felt normal, I'm really sorry. Good night, Em.'
Ali got out of the car..when she came to the door she looked back at Emily and waved at her, Emily waved back, started the engine and left.
When Ali got inside she received a text message.
'Someone'll have a broken heart.. Your feelings you should've hide. Don't think I'll let you be happy with her. -A'
