Author's note

This is my first Pretty Little Liars fanfiction and I hope you like it!

It's set after season 6A this is a new version of the five years forward, I've already watched all the episodes but I felt like I needed to write this fanfiction cuz it was stuck in my head for a longer while.

The first chapter is not as good as the others, it's mostly just for information, to fill you in about the story.

Well, on with the chapter, if you like this story, please review, favorite or follow, or whatever you want! I'm happy as long as someone bothers reading it!

There's no place like Rosewood

Chapter 1

Aria was sitting in her backyard on a swing, watching a little boy play with his toys.

"Isn't he adorable?" she asked, turning around to see Liam.

"Just like his mother." he smiled. They kissed.

"I love it when you're like this." she whispered to him "Come on Alex it's almost lunch time!" she called out.

The little boy ran inside the house giggling.

Aria stood up and headed after him, but Liam grasped her hand and stopped her.

"You've got mail." he said darkly, throwing a letter at her.

Aria opened the letter.

'Dear Aria,

I know that after all you went through, you finally have the life you deserve and I am finally getting the life I've always wanted, with my fiancé Lorenzo!

So, since you are one of my best friends, I am inviting you to Rosewood for my engagement party in three days!-I know it's short notice, but we want to call our closest family and friends only and make it small.

Lorenzo and I would be glad if you, Liam and Alex came to our house at 19:00 PM this Saturday.

Love, Alison.'

"Relax, it's only Ali." said Aria "She's calling us for her engagement party in Rosewood."

"We're not going." he said instantly.

"But-"

"And that's final!" he growled.

After Liam entered the house, Aria took out her phone and quickly texted Hanna, after that she entered the house.

…..

Hanna was sitting in her office in front of her desk, working, when her boss came in.

"Hanna." her head jolted up "You've got more work to do and you need to finish this until tonight." he dumped a pile of papers on her table.

"You can't be serious." she looked up at him.

"Do I look like I'm kidding?" he asked in a serious tone.

"Jordan I can't do all of this by tomorrow!" she said "I'm not a secretary!"

"Yes you can, and you're my assistant, so you must." he said "Unless, well, you know the prize." he said.

"There's no way in a billion years that I would sleep with you Jordan!" she said "Stop forcing it!"

"Then you need to do your job, by tonight." he headed towards the exit.

"Wait!" said Hanna as he turned around "I need a one month vacation." she said "I promise I'll work doubles and all day long, but please give me that vacation!"

"The prize is still the same." he said.

"Never mind then." she said.

"That's negotiable." he said "One week, one kiss."

"But-"

"That's my last offer." he said "Do you want that vacation or not?"

Hanna sighed and unwillingly went towards Jordan and kissed him.

He didn't want to let her go, but she (barely) got away.

"You can have your vacation, you deserved it." he said "Say, where are you going?"

"Home." she said, gathering her things.

"I meant for the vacation." he said.

"That's only for me to know." she packed her things.

"You mean you and your fiancé?" he said.

"Exactly." she said, heading to the exit.

He caught her hand when she wanted to pass him "Next time you'll agree." he said "Or Caleb will pay the price."

She yanked her hand out of his grasp and left the office.

Hanna exited the building and was greeted by Caleb in his car.

"Hey princess!" he said.

"Caleb!" she was surprised to see him since he didn't usually drive her home from work, she walked 'cause it was close.

She got in the car and kissed him.

"I missed you." she said.

"It's only been eight hours." he joked.

She rolled her eyes "You know I'll always miss you." she said.

"Always?" he teased.

"Always and forever." she smiled.

They always said that, it was the thing Caleb said to her when he proposed and now it's like an everyday thing.

"Forever ha?" he said.

"You know it." she said "So anyway, I got a one week vacation!" she said excitedly.

"That's great!" he said.

"And I was thinking we could go to Alison's engagement party." she said.

"Who's she getting engaged to?" he asked.

"Lorenzo, the cop." said Hanna.

"You're right, we should go and wish him good luck with his marriage with the devil." he said.

She slapped his hand "Come on Caleb, she's changed!"

"Don't interrupt the driver while he's driving!" he joked.

She rolled her eyes.

Her phone buzzed and she got it out to read the text from Aria.

'Are you going at Ali's?-If you are, please come and pick me and Alex up. Miss you!–xoxo Aria'

"We should make a stop at Aria's on the way to Rosewood." said Hanna.

…

Spencer was in her home office, grading papers from her last French exam. She felt her phone buzz.

She opened it to see a text from Hanna.

'Are you coming to Ali's engagement party?-Can't wait to see you! Em and Aria will be there too!-xoxo Hanna'

'Great, another party I'm not invited to! People just shut me out all the time!' she thought.

She looked at the small baby toy on her desk and sniffled as tears blurred her vision.

She stood up and went to another room, it was an empty room.

There was a closet in it with a piece of wood, a plush teddy bear and a few baby trinkets and toys.

The letters T.C. were engraved on the piece of wood, along with a few others, 'for our little princess'.

She started crying, the tears that didn't fall for almost two years now, found their way on her cheeks again.

She was over it, but not entirely, and she promised herself she wouldn't enter that room anymore, but she just couldn't help it.

She heard the doorbell ring.

She washed her face and went to open the door.

When she opened it, she was shocked to see the person that was standing there.

"What are you doing here?" asked Spencer.

…..

Emily wiped her mouth after the third time she puked this morning. She had a cold running for two months and she had morning sickness everyday.

She got to her kitchen and sat on a chair next to the kitchen counter, taking the letter she got a while ago and re-reading it.

She called Aria.

"Hello?" Liam's voice was on the other end.

"Hey, is Aria there?" asked Emily.

"Yeah, she's giving Alex a bath." said Liam.

"Can I talk to her?" asked Emily.

"I'll tell her to call you back." he said.

He forgot to hang up and Emily could still hear what was going on at Aria's.

She heard Liam talk something to Aria and then she heard Alex's feet thumping on the floor and him giggling. She was about to hang up, but she heard what sounded like a loud slap and some whimpers after that. Then the sounds got louder.

"Didn't I tell you not to have any contact with them!" yelled Liam "It's their fault you were stuck in Rosewood, their fault you had to move here all along and it's their fault you don't have a job!" another slap "Do you expect me to raise this family on my own?!"

There were a few other loud slaps and sobs.

"I-it's not…their fault." she heard a weak voice, Aria's "It's you."

A few more slaps and thuds and then everything went quiet after the door closed, she could only hear sobs.

"Aria?" she said loud enough for her to hear.

"Em? You're still there?" Aria asked shakily.

"Yeah, are you OK?" asked Emily worriedly.

"Please don't mention this to anyone, OK?" she said with a weak voice.

"I'm taking you and Alex with me at Ali's party. There's no way you're staying there." she hung up the phone before Aria could protest and went to pack.

Author's note (again)

There you have it! It's the first chapter.

I know it sounds a bit stupid or like a very childish fanfiction where everyone's just miserable and everything resolves into the original couples getting back together in the most ridiculous way but it's not!

Please don't stop reading my story!

I'll try to post in 3-4 days?-If not, the next chapter will be posted in a week, so next Saturday or Sunday.
