AN: First PLL fanfic. I hope you enjoy and leave a review.

Allow me to set the story. This AU where A doesn't exist and Alison is dead. Sorry fans of Ali. Spencer lives in the barn. Emily notices that Spencer is over stressing herself. So when she makes a plan to get Spencer to relax and destress.

Thus I bring to you,

Stressed out? Act like a child.

Semester exams were coming. Spencer knew this. She was constantly reminded of the fact. She was a complete wreck. Studying, studying, studying. That's all she'd been doing. Her friends were concerned but it was Emily who demanded Spencer to allow her to come over to help her study. It took awhile but Emily won. Emily knew just what Spencer needed and she was going to show Spencer. The night had finally came that Emily would put her plan in action to destress Spencer.

"Spencer?" Emily called as she let herself into the Hasting's barn.

"I'm in my room Em." Spencer shouted and Emily locked the door.

Emily made her way to Spencer's room and saw the girl completely frazzled. Emily walked over to Spencer and grabbed the book Spencer was reading.

"HEY! I need that to study Em." Spencer said as she tried to grab the book.

"No. We're not going to study. I'm here to show you how to relax. You're going to act the a child." Emily said as she grabbed the other books and Spencer's bag and put them high up where Spencer couldn't reach.

"Damn it Emily this isn't funny." Spencer said as she sat on her bed and sulked.

"What's not funny is getting an ulcer from all this stress. Spence you're the smartest person I know. You're going to pass these exams no problem. Now you're going to relax and let me take care of you. There's no judgement here." Emily said as she unpacked her bag revealing the baby items she'd gotten.

"Please Emily not this." Spencer said on the verge of tears.

"It'll be okay Spence. Paige did this to me once and I loved it. Just try it for awhile and if you genuinely don't like it you tell me and we'll stop." Emily said as she gave Spencer a hug.

"Alright. Can this stay between you and me?"

"Of course Spencer. Are you ready to start? You can play any age, I just need to know what age." Emily said.

"Three. What do I call you?"

"Whatever you want. I called Paige, Nanny. Call me whatever comes naturally, okay?"

"Okay." Spencer said.

"Here," Emily said as she handed Spencer a stuffed cow, "It may help you get comfortable in a three year olds mindset."

"Thanks." Spencer said as she curled up and cuddled the cow.

Emily cleaned up Spencer's room a bit before saying,

"How about we get you dressed in some pajamas?"

"Okay. Emmy me wan wearw my kitty jamjams." Spencer said childishly and ran to her dresser and got them out.

"Do you want some help?"

"Yes!"

"Yes, what missy?"

"Pwease!" Spencer said and Emily smiled and helped Spencer get changed into the pajamas.

"There. Are you comfy now?" Emily asked and received a nod from Spencer.

Spencer jumped back on her bed and dug through Emily's bag and grabbed a pacifier and popped it in her mouth. Then she stood up and proceeded to jump on her bed.

"No Spencer. No jumping on the bed or you'll be put on time out." Emily said as Spencer plopped down on the bed and let out giggles.

"Sowwy Emmy." Spencer lisped out before running out of the room.

"No running Spencer!" Emily said as she ran after Spencer, who was now no longer in sight.

"Spencer." Emily called out as she looked around for her.

"BOO!" Spencer shouted as she jumped in front of Emily, who screamed causing Spencer to laugh.

"Alright you scared me. Now what do you want to do?" Emily said as Spencer stopped laughing.

"Movie! And and pizza!" Spencer said and Emily nodded and ordered a pizza.

"What movie?"

"Me wan Fwozen Emmy." Spencer said as she bounced up and down on her feet.

"Okay. Here's what I want you to do. I want you to go get your blanket and pillow."

"Me bwing Moomoo?"

"Of course sweetie." Emily said before letting Spencer go and get her items.

While Spencer was getting her things, Emily rented Frozen on Spencer's tv and paused it. Then she went to check on Spencer. She found Spencer curled up on the bed, crying.

"Spence what's the matter?" Emily said as she sat beside Spencer and rubbed her back.

"Me wan a bwankie buh me no can weach." Spencer sniffled out.

"I'll get it down. Just point to where it's at." Emily said and Spencer pointed to her closet.

Emily went over and opened the closet and immediately found a blanket. She got it down and handed it to Spencer, who clung to the blanket.

"Tank you Emmy." Spencer said as the doorbell rang.

"Go sit on the couch while I get the pizza." Emily said and Spencer carried her things to the couch.

Emily paid for the pizza and started the movie. Spencer happily watched the movie and ate the pizza.

"Emmy me wan juice. Pwease."

"Alright." Emily got up and grabbed a sippy cup that she'd brought that had Elsa on it and poured some juice in it.

"Elwsa! Tank you Emmy!" Spencer said when Emily handed her the cup.

"You're welcome sweetie."

When the movie ended, Emily cleaned up and sent Spencer to the bathroom. Spencer came out as Emily finished cleaning. Spencer ran up to Emily, who was surprised by the action.

"What's this for?"

"For hewlpin' big giwl Spencerw."

"You're welcome. Now I do believe it's someone's bedtime." Emily said as Spencer shook her head.

"No. Me wan pway wif you morwe Emmy."

"Come on sweetie. I'll tuck you in and read you a bedtime story." Emily said and Spencer nodded.

Emily got Spencer all tucked in bed with her cow and blanket. Then pulled out Goodnight Moon from her bag. Spencer cheered when she saw the book and snuggled down into her bed to get comfy. As Emily read the book, Spencer was slowly falling asleep. When Emily finished the book, Spencer whispered,

"You a good mommy Emmy. Me wish you was my mommy. Me lub you Emmy."

"I love you too Spencer. Good night sweetie. I'll be here when you wake up." Emily said as she stood and kissed Spencer's forehead.

With Spencer sleeping, Emily went into the living room and started studying, she still had exams to take as well. When she grew tired, Emily changed into pajamas and fell asleep on the couch.
