Disclaimer: I do NOT own Pretty Little Liars, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, any of the characters or the song.
A/N: This is a one-shot so it only has one chapter. I am still working on my other Emison story, but I won't be updating as often as I have a lot of course work. I would also like if you could vote on my poll on ffnet to decide who will be A in my story. I have been listening to this song a lot recently and this story got stuck in my head. The song is Rest in Peace sung by Spike (character)/James Marsters (actor) from Buffy.
Emily and Alison were in a bar with few customers, sitting at a table. Emily had a gig there. She went on stage and Alison turned around in her seat to face the stage. "I wrote this song about someone in my life" Emily announced, then the music started playing.
I died
So many years ago
And you can make me feel
Like it isn't so
But why you come to be with me
I think I finally know
mm-mmm
You're scared
Ashamed of what you feel
And you can't tell the ones you love
You know they couldn't deal
But whisper in a dead man's ear
Doesn't make it real (Emily looks straight at Alison, but Alison looks away)
That's great
But I don't wanna play
'cause being near you touches me
more than I can say
And since I'm only dead to you
I'm saying stay away
And let me rest in peace
Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it (Emily takes the microphone out of the stand)
In a hole six foot deep (Emily kicks over the microphone stand)
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release
So let me rest in peace
You know (As Emily is singing she goes and kneels in front of Alison)
You've got a willing slave
And you just love to play the thought
That you might misbehave (Emily runs her hand down Alison's thigh)
But till you do I'm telling you (Emily stands up again)
Stop visiting my grave
And let me rest in peace
I know I should go (Emily walks back to the stage)
But I follow you like a man possessed
There's a traitor here beneath my breast
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed
If my heart could beat it would break my chest
But I can see you're unimpressed
So leave me be and let me rest in peace
Let me get some rest
Let me take my love and bury it
In a hole six foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release
So let me rest in peace
Why won't you
Let me rest in peace
Emily put the microphone back in the stand and left the bar as quickly as she could. Alison was frozen for a moment, then ran after Emily. Emily heard Alison behind her, "Leave me alone" She told her. Alison grabbed her wrist and turned Emily to face her. "I didn't know you felt that way" Alison said quietly. "Yeah well now you do" Emily replied. "I'm not going to leave you alone though because...I love you. I just didn't know how to tell you and I didn't know if you would return me feelings. I was also scared of rejection and what other people would say" Alison told her.
"You sure about that?" Emily asked. "More sure than anything else in my life. I love you Emily Fields" Alison told her. Alison pulled Emily into a love filled kiss. "I love you Alison DiLaurentis" Emily whispered when they had parted, smiling and resting their foreheads together, causing Alison to smile too. They walked home hand in hand, ready to start their lives together.
