A/N: This is just something I wrote in creative writing class...it's a ballad – which was our assignment – and I used PLL as an inspiration(: My teacher won't know, though! XD But since we're all fanatics on this site, I thought that I'd share it with y'all(: I'll explain more towards the bottom!

Aria's 2nd person POV

Disclaimer: I do not own PLL; all rights belong to the author and ABC Family.

Secrecy – such a strong word to follow;
Can it even be real?
To hide your thoughts deep within
And contain them with a seal.

"I've got a secret," said Hanna.

The simple statement shakes your core,
Mischief clearly in her tone.
But you know she'll tell you anyway;
Gossip is her clone.

"Can you keep it?" asked Hanna.

The question makes you really wonder
If you'd be able to not share.
Sometimes it will simply slip
From your mouth right into the air.

"Do you mean it?" asked Hanna.

You nod your head fiercely,
The excitement there in your eyes.
Smiling to encourage her on,
She begins the weave of lies.

"Here's how I hear it," said Hanna.

She pulls on your arm softly,
Bringing you near to her.
The hot breath escapes her mouth
In a barely audible whisper.

"Can you believe it?" asked Hanna.

You back away slowly,
The news ringing in your ears.
Your jaw clenches tightly
And you're almost in tears.

"What do you think of it?" asked Hanna.

Your answer: "My lips are sealed."

A/N: Okay, so here's a little hint: Hanna doesn't know about Aria and Ezra in this, but I wanna know what y'all think the secret was and why Aria reacted in the way that she did...also why she said the last line like that.

If you review with a guess – whether right or wrong – I'll give you a hint to the next chapter of Roadtrip. So, again, write your answer and at the end of the review put 'Roadtrip' (like in Baby Steps). Then I'll let you know if you're right or not, with the hint as well.

PLEASE REVIEW! I'm so excited to turn this in, and hear what y'all think the exchange is about(;

Thanks so much!
