I'm Emily Fields, and this is my story, about falling in love with a girl named Alison Dilaurentis . It all starts in the beginning.
"How was your first day of grade 7 Emily?" My mom asked
"It was all right, there's this new girl, I think her name is Alison, she looked lonely so me, Aria, Spencer and Emily sat with her."
"Just like your mother, always caring about other people" my dad said smiling.
The first day of grade 7 is when I met Alison. At the time I was only 12 and I couldn't tell you that I knew much about love but I can tell you that I felt something towards her that day. The school year went on, and by the beginning of grade 8 the five of us were all best friends. Though, when you have a group of best friends, you always have a favourite. Aria and Spencer were always closer with each other and Hanna was always closest to me, but Alison always, and always will be my first option. I remember the exact date of the first time I realized I liked Alison more as a friend.
September 22nd 2010, grade 8
"I feel sick" I said
My mom put her hand on my forehead and said
"You don't have a fever Emily. Go to school"
"I don't feel like going today" I pouted
"Emily. Go. Now!" My mom demanded
I walked out and slammed the door. I started crying as I walked to school and I heard Ali call my name from behind me
"Emily, wait up!"
I didn't stop walking and by the time she reached to me she said
"Thanks for…"
She looked at me from the side then turned my body, and looked at me face to face. She kept her hand on my arm and asked me
"What's wrong?"
I didn't say anything. She leaned towards me and hugged me. She wrapped her arms around me and I wrapped mine around the back of her neck and dug my face into her shoulder. For the first time in my life I felt something different. I felt a new feeling. I felt a thousand new feelings and they all had to do with loving Alison. They say home is a place where there's a roof over your head but I think home is being held by her. From that day forward, I knew I liked Ali as more than just a friend.
*Alison's side*
I'm 16 years old, my name is Alison Dilaurentis. I don't usually write stories but I think everyone should write about their love life because it's a beautiful thing. I never thought I would ever fall in love with a girl, but then I met Emily Fields.
"I don't wanna go to school! I don't know anyone here! We should of never moved!" I pouted to my mom on the first day of grade 7.
"Darling, you will meet new friends, trust me" she said
I wrapped my arms around myself and took off in an angry pace.
The school looked tiny compared to my other one. I walked into the classroom and sat at the desk where no one else was. The classroom started to fill minute after minute, and still, I sat alone. But then these four girls got up and walk towards me
"Hey I'm Emily" Emily said smiling
"I'm Aria" Aria said smiling too
"Hanna" Hanna said cooly
"I am Spencer Hastings" Spencer said sophisticated
"I'm Alison" I replied shyly
"Can we sit with you?" Emily asked
"Oh, of course" I said
As the year went on we all became best friends. But I always leaned towards Emily's side more. I guess it wasn't until the day I was walking with Emily on the way home from school in grade nine, early January, that I realized I loved her. It was freezing outside but she made it feel warm.
"I looked so bad today, I had no time to put on makeup" Emily said
"You don't need make up Emily. You're beautiful as you are" I replied.
She stopped walking and looked at me.
"Do you really mean that?" She asked
The moment she asked, it felt like the world stopped, nothing around me mattered, only what was in front of me; Emily. I looked into her eyes deeply, I looked at her beautiful brown eyes, and I looked into her soul. It took me approximately 12 vital seconds to reply
"Yes, I do"
It took me approximately 12 seconds to realize that I was in love with her. The best thing that ever happened to me was the moment I fell in love with her. The worst thing that ever happened to me was also, the moment I fell in love with her.
