Prompt: IMing about random things.

Disclaimer: I do not own Pretty Little Liars.
Spoilers: Spoilers for The Blacklist. Approx. episode 3 of season 2 to the fall finale of season 5
Rating: T to be safe. Mostly fluffy fun.

Randomness because I am working on a different story and have hit a roadblock with Little Liars and Demons.

Note: I know that a story/chapter solely written in text message, FB message, IMing, etc. is against the rules so I have a few spots here and there with Emily and Alison speaking to each because they are in the same room (and therefore are not messaging just each other).

Swimmer98 – Emily
YoungMastermind – Spencer
Lil'bug: Aria
Fashionista – Hanna
QueenBee – Alison
Lil'Stephanie21 – Samara Cook (first person to get this reference gets extra points! :)

It's early in the afternoon on Friday. The girls are each in their own bedroom, IMing together. They are also each packing a bag, getting ready for the last-bit-of-summer-Labor-Day-weekend vacation up to Spencer's cabin at the lake.

Lil'Stephanie21 has joined Swimmer98, YoungMastermind2012, and QueenBee's chatroom.

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:12 p.m.): Emmmmiiiilllllly….are you on here?

Swimmer98 (1:12 p.m.): Yes I am.

Swimmer98 (1:13 p.m.): And really? Of all the names u could have picked, why that 1?

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:14 p.m.): Because Lil'Stephanie1 thru 20 were already taken :P

"Did she seriously just make that reference?" Alison asks from across the room. Emily smirks at her from over the top of her laptop.

"Yes. Yes, she did." She turns back to the chat and sees Hanna and Spencer have both answered.

Fashionista (1:15 p.m.): I am so ready for the weekend to start. Spence why do ur prnts insist on lvng so l8?

YoungMastermind (1:16 p.m.): It is not that late. We are only leaving at 5:00.

Fashionista (1:17 p.m.): Ok, first, stop txting like an English college professor. And second, that's like 6 hours from now.

QueenBee (1:20 p.m.): Han, it's only a little b4 1:30. That's less than 4 hours.

Fashionista (1:20 p.m.): I'm in my bdrm ok? I didn't knw wht time it was.

Swimmer98 (1:20p.m.): …

Swimmer98 (1:21): Han…just…I-I have nothing to say. Someone, please take this over for me.

Emily just tilts her head back, closing her eyes and shaking her head. She can hear Alison across the room, giggling.

YoungMastermind (1:22 p.m.): I have no words. Literally, none at all.

Lil'Stephanie21 1:23 p.m.): I feel like typing out *facepalm* wouldn't be enough…(!clock on your computer, Han!)

Fashionista (1:23 p.m.): Haha. I can really feel the love.

YoungMastermind (1:24 p.m.) You know we love you, Han. :D

**Spoilers start here**

Lil'Stephanie (1:24 p.m.): Anyway, I have something to discuss with Emily so I suggest if you have not seen s2 of The Blacklist, you leave now.

"Ali, you should probably log out of this chat," Emily says. "You haven't watched that one yet, have you?"

"No," The blonde shakes her head. "I'll start a chat with Ar, and we'll come back when you are finished."

QueenBee has left Lil'Stephanie21, Swimmer98, YoungMastermind2012, and Fashionista's chatroom.

QueenBee has invited Lil'bug to a chat.

Lil'bug (1:26 p.m.): Why are we in a chat alone when the others are already in one?

QueenBee (1:26 p.m.): they're talking about the blacklist. I watch it but haven't seen s2. Plzzzzz don't leave me.

Lil'bug (1:27 p.m.): 0.o fine. I'll stay.

QueenBee (1:28 p.m.): love you. :D

**(last call for spoilers. If you pass, you don't care.)**

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:29 p.m.): She got shot! Shot! He sprayed her with the virus and then shot. her.

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:30 p.m.): !

Fashionista (1:31 p.m.): I think im missing smthg. Who got sprayed with a virus and then shot?

YoungMastermind (1:32 p.m.): I do not know. I think they are talking about The Blacklist. Emmmm….who are you talking about?

Swimmer98 (1:33 p.m.): Samar from The Blacklist.

Swimmer98 (1:33 p.m.): She chased the guy thru an airport, tackled him, they rolled around a little and he sprayed her with the virus and then shot her in the side.

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:34 p.m.): !

Swimmer98 (1:34 p.m.): Words, 'Mar. Use ur words.

Fashionista (1:35 p.m.): That's creepy. Her name is Samar? 0.0

Swimmer98 (1:36 p.m.): Yes, it's basically Samara without the last ~a~.

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:37 p.m.): She got shot! She got shot and then tried to keep Liz out of the room.

Swimmer98 (1:38 p.m.): Yes, but look on the bright side…

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:38 p.m.): What could possibly be the bright side here?

Swimmer98 (1:39 p.m.): Well, first, Liz wasn't about to leave Samar alone in there. She risked getting infected herself so 1 Samar wouldn't be alone while they waited for the cure and 2 so she wouldn't bleed out.

Swimmer98 (1:40 p.m.): And they don't hate each other now; at least, there isn't as must hostile between the two.

Swimmer98 (140 p.m.): They're getting along now.

Swimmer98 (1:41 p.m.): And I kno you have watched the later seasons. especially 4. They paired together quite a bit.

Swimmer98 (1:41 p.m.): ok, so there are only 3 field members and one was kidnapped leaving Samar and Liz together but still.

Lil'Stephanie (1:42 p.m.): oh! That's another thing!

Fashionista (1:43 p.m.): what? Samar and Liz being together?

Lil'Stephanie (1:43 p.m.): No I'm talking about what happened when they were together.

Fashionista (1:44 p.m.): what? Did they kiss or something

YoungMastermind (1:45 p.m.): Hanna…

Swimmer98 (1:45 p.m.): God, don't encourage her.

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:46 p.m.): No unfortunately.

Swimmer98 (1:48 pm.): No they didn't kiss. For 1, Liz has been with Tom since forever, even when he was the bad guy and was hurting her. And for 2, Samar is with Aram since the end of season 4. Also, Liz and Tom have Agnes now.

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:49 p.m.): Yeah, well still

Fashionista (1:50 p.m.): wait! What happened when they were alone?

Swimmer98 (1:52 p.m.): Samar always drove the SUV. Liz well actually Liz never drives. bc when they finally rescued Ress from whoever those people were, Samar moved to the back when it was all three of them or to the passenger seat when it was her and Ress.

Fashionista (1:53 p.m.): poor Liz.

Swimmer98 (1:55): well no. it was never a problem. It was like in L&O CI. Alex liked to drive so Bobby let her. It was never really discussed. It…just was.

Lil'Stephanie21 (1:56 p.m.): it's still weird.

"Hey," Alison calls out. Emily glances up to find Alison climbing into her bed next to her. "Can you pause the chat? I need to go home and start packing."

"Yeah, sure just a sec." She turns back to computer and lets the others know what they are doing.

Swimmer98 (2:00 p.m.): Hey, we need to pause. I have to run Ali home so she can get her clothes for this wkend.

YoungMastermind (2:00 p.m.): Why don't you two just come over to my house after you are finished?

YoungMastermind (2:01 p.m.): Samara can go get Hanna on her way here and you two can pick up Aria on your way. That way we will all be in one place and will have several cars to take to the lake.

Swimmer98 (2:02 p.m.): Ok. We will see you in about half an hour!

Swimmer98 has left Lil'Stephanie21, Fashionista, and YoungMastermind2012's chatroom.

Fashionista (2:03 p.m.): Kisses, loves.

Lil'Stephanie21: Han, I'm on my way. Be outside waiting.

Fashionista (2:04 p.m.): Kay!

Fashionista has left Lil'Stephanie21 and YoungMastermind2012's chatroom.

Lil'Staphanie21 has left YoungMastermind2012's chatroom.

YoungMastermind2012 has left the chatroom.

Emily exits out of her IM after making sure everyone has left the chatroom. "Okay, first, before we anything you need to let Aria know what we are doing." Hearing this, Alison's eyes widen and she shoots up from the bed.

"Oh, shit! I forgot about her." She makes it to the window seat and her computer where she has several messages from Lil'bug.

Lil'bug (1:58 p.m.): Ali, you still there?

Lil'bug (2:00 p.m.): Hellloooooo….?

Lil'bug (2:01 p.m.): Heeey! I know you're there bc it hasn't said you have signed yet. Where did you go?

Lil'bug (2:03 p.m.): Allliiisssooon...

QueenBee (2:06 p.m.): Sorry!

QueenBee (2:06 p.m.): yes, I am still here

QueenBee (2:07 p.m.): I have to go home to pack.

QueenBee (2:07 p.m.): Spence said we should all come over to her house now. Em and I will come get u. R u packed and ready to go?

Lil'bug (2:08 p.m.): yep. R u coming right now?

QueenBee (2:09 p.m.): we'll b leavin in the next 10 min or so.

Lil'bug (2:10 p.m.): I'll b waiting.

QueenBee (2:11 p.m.): Kay! Bye!

Lil'bug has left QueenBee's chatroom.

QueenBee has left the chatroom.

"You good?" Emily asks and Alison nods as she too shuts down her computer. "All right. Why don't you just look in my dresser and see what clothes you have? You can use my bag since you won't need that much."

"Okay. Do you think we will be going into town any?"

"I don't know. We can talk about that at Spence's. We'll probably wear comfy clothes home, like this," she gestures to the sweats and t-shirt both girls are wearing. They are comfy yet nice enough that the girls can go into a gas station or a grocery to pick up the necessary groceries.

"So just throw in a good outfit, some pjs, and another comfy outfit or two." Alison digs through the dresser and comes up with pjs (Emily's old, baggy shirt), two pairs of sweats and two shirts. She throws them in Emily's bag before going to get her toothbrush from the bathroom.

She makes sure the lights are turned off, that Em's backpack, the one with their laptops, iPods/iPads, and chargers along with their extra "emergency" money, are in, is packed and goes to find Emily in the kitchen with Pam.

"I think that's it. I'll need to grab my makeup from home, but I'm pretty much packed. I guess it's good thing I leave clothes here all the time."

They say goodbye to Pam and grab their jackets from the hooks. As they head out of the door, Pam knows she can't be thankful enough that Emily found a friend in those girls.

Here is it! Please let me know what you thought. I think I may make this either a simple one-shot or a story where I put all of my PLL one shots, so if you have a request that you do not want in Little Liars, then let me know!

I can do friendship with the girls or I will try to do more than the ships from the show (Sparia, Hannily, etc.). If you would like another chapter having to do with this one (them at the lake house) let me know. Also, I didn't really mention it but Emison is a couple in this. This is also set in 2017.

Please review and let me know what you thought! :)
