Lost and Found
A Pretty Little Liars Fanfiction
'~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~'
Summary: Lost and insecure you found me- the fray. Jason takes Aria to visit a spiraling Emily on his boat but the new A has other plans for the two leaving them marooned on a deserted island. AU post season 2.
Background information: Trying to branch out, lead separate lives over the summer, just reminded Aria how firmly planted their roots were which is probably why she dropped everything the moment she heard of Emily's downward spiral and volunteered to travel to check on her. Besides, Spencer was drowning in schoolwork where coming up for air wasn't an option and Hannah was in California with Caleb so the romantic in her forbade interrupting. Also, she couldn't afford a plane ticket so Spencer pulled the little sister card on Jason and convinced him to accompany Aria, taking her in his boat to Costa Rica in order to keep her parents oblivious. (she claimed to want to go to an art camp where she would volunteer for two weeks) Jason, secretly wanting to spend some time with his crush agreed. Also his good nature and desire to help that drove him to be a counselor fueled this good deed. And without further ado…
Chapter One: Into the Blue
Waves lapping against the hull made for a hypnotic rhythm lulling the brunette leaning against cool metal of the banister into a trance that isn't broken until he calls out her name. Gorgeous green flecked with brilliant blue snaps towards the devilishly handsome boy with features chiseled like a finely carved Michelangelo statue, Jason DiLaurentis.
"I'm sorry. What were you saying?"
With his back leaning against the banister, he had to look over his shoulder to see the ocean waves- feel the spray of the boat cutting through the rough seas like butter gaining himself understanding. Then he turns back to her, a small grin on his lips.
"I was just saying that you're a good person," he states matter-of-factly and she starts a protest which causes him to add on. "I'm serious. I mean, not a lot of people would drop everything and travel all the way to Costa Rica for a friend in need."
"Why did you," she blurts before pausing a moment to reassess how to ask her question. "Why'd you drop everything for her?"
Such a simple question held weights of various degrees and he wasn't exactly sure how to answer. All he'd ever been with Aria was honest, even when it wasn't easy and ultimately led to heartbreak… but this time the truth came with ties, ties that bound him to her friend, aka his sister. And he couldn't confide in Aria that his little sister asked him to so he reverts to a vague response.
"I know how it feels to have death punch a hole in your heart," he confides crossing his arms over his chest and letting his head hang slightly, his mind clearly going back to Ali's death. "It could be consuming if you let it."
The heaviness of the conversation weighed down on both parties but Jason quickly changed the topic asking if she wanted something to drink. He starts towards the galley, the intention of getting two waters evident but his cellphone vibrates in his pocket. Worrying that it could be one of the kids he counsels in crisis, he pulls his phone from his pocket and opens the text message.
Was that sparks flying between you too or was it the bomb below deck? Clock's ticking! -A
The electronic device slipped from and strong legs charged down into the cabin. Adrenaline surges through his veins as he scrambles about the cabin tearing open cabinet doors until he opened the cabinet with the electrical box and his heart about damn near stops. Bright red numbers ticked before his eyes taunting him of the impending threat.
55…54…53…
"Son of a-" he curses fiddling with the device a moment attempting to stop it.
But with time ticking madly forward, he knew it was a lost cause. An arm extends grabs the emergency kit and pulls the strap over his shoulder before he starts taking off towards the deck. Only one person's wellbeing is on his mind and not his own. Muscular legs pound the wood beneath his feet driving him towards the petite brunette so engrossed in her own text message that she didn't hear him charging forward.
"Aria!" he roars without attempting to hide the horror in his voice.
Eyes wide with shock snap towards the charging boy the moment he reaches her and before she can react, she's being thrown over a broad shoulder and carried up over the metal bars that kept them secure on the boat. An explosive BOOM roars out from beneath his feet shaking the boat as he took one last lunge forward into the water beneath moments before the entire boat is engulfed in a fiery torrent of reds, yellows, and orange hues.
