My first time really seeing Alison after years, and she follows me and screws everything up. I told her that I didn't want her to come, and that I could handle this myself. Once Alison disappeared in the elevator I felt my face getting red. I turned back to Spencer and just shoved her aside and walked out the door. " Emily, come back!" She yelled chasing after me. I got into my car and ignored her pleading for me to listen to her. Once I pulled away from the warehouse I felt the tears start to roll down my face. At first I didn't know why exactly I was so mad but then it hit me, I still liked Ali. After seeing her I knew that I still had feelings for her. It didn't matter anyway because she was never going to talk to me ever again. Once I had gotten home I remembered that my parents were still in Texas. I went into my room and collapsed onto my bed. About three minutes later I heard a knock on my door. Why couldn't Spencer just get the message that I just wanted her to leave me alone? " Just go away." I said getting even more annoyed with her. " I really need to talk to you, Em." A voice from the hallway said. I practically jumped off of the bed when I heard the voice wanting to come into my room. I opened the door and smiled when I saw her standing there. " Ali. Y-you came back." I said my voice shaking. " Of course." She replied stepping past me and into the room. " I'm really sorry, Alison. I shouldn't have told Spencer." I said sitting back on my bed. " You haven't changed your room at all, have you?" She said going off topic. I shook my head watching her pick up a picture of Aria, Hanna, Spencer, Ali and I from years ago. She held the picture for a minute longer before setting it down and joining me on the bed. " I'm the one who should be sorry. She just scared me, I've been hiding from –A for all of this time and have gotten used to running when ever I hear a sound." The blonde said looking into my eyes. I stood up and pulled her into a hug. I wanted more than ever for her to just feel safe. She leaned her head onto my shoulder and I held her tighter. Right before we were about to pull away my bedroom door swung open to reveal Aria, Hanna and Spencer. Alison shot back looking stunned. The silence probably only lasted for a couple of seconds but it felt like hours, before Hanna spoke up, " A-Ali, you're here." She quietly said looking confused. " Yeah, I am." Alison replied looking at the ground. " Emily, look I'm really sorry for what happened earlier." Spencer said taking a step towards me. " It's okay. You were just trying to help." I said. Spencer smiled and turned back to Alison, "I think that you owe us an explanation."/p
