The life of Sparia
8 year old Aria Montgomery and 8 year old Spencer Hastings are playing with Aria's Barbie-dolls.
"Spencie?" says Aria with her sweet little cute smile.
"Yes...?" says Spencer.
"I think you're my bestiest friend." says Aria.
"Aria, I think same thing about you." says Spencer. "You're fun, cool and totally sweet."
"Yay! Thanks so much, Spencie." says Aria.
"Cool that we live next door to each other so we can play every day, right?" says Spencer.
"Oh yeah! Soooo cool, it is!" says Aria.
"Totally cool, yeah!" says Spencer.
"Spencie Hastings, you're super-mega awesome and I really love you." says Aria.
"Wanna go with me and my big-sis and see a movie tomorrow?" says Spencer.
"That sounds fun. I'll ask my mommy if it's okay." says Aria.
The next day on the bus home from school.
"Aria, can you go see movie with Melissa and me?" says Spencer.
"I can, cuz mom said it's okay. What time?" says Aria.
"Lissa said at five." says Spencer.
"Didn't Melissa hate when you call her Lissa?" says Aria.
"Used to...not anymore." says Spencer.
"Meet by the treehouse little before five then?" says Aria.
Two years before, Spencer's dad built a beautiful treehouse for his daughters and Aria.
"Sure! Lissa and me will be there, girl." says Spencer.
Later that day at 16.35 in the treehouse.
"Hi, Aria!" says Spencer and Melissa as Aria enter the treehouse just like thousands of times before.
"Hi, girls!" says Aria.
"Let's get goin' now. Mother's waitin' for us in the car." says Melissa, trying to act older than she is.
The 3 girls climb down from the treehouse and run over to Mrs Hastings who's waiting by the car.
"Okay, be good girls tonight. I don't want any problems." says Mrs Hastings.
"We promise." says Aria, Spencer and Melissa.
When they get to the movie-theater, Mrs Hastings buy candy for the girls before they all enter and take their seats.
"I've been waitin' for this movie for like 4 months." says Melissa, sounding much less mature now than she did before.
"Disney-movies are cute." says Aria.
"They are very cute." says Spencer.
"I wish I'd be a perfect princess like in a Disney-movie." says Melissa with a small childish laugh.
"You know such stories aren't real, sweetie. They are only fun sweet movies, not real life." says Mrs Hastings in a calm friendly tone.
"I know, but I wish I'd be princess anyways." says Melissa.
"Shut little, Lissa. Movie's starting." says Aria.
The movie begins.
( you can think of it as any cute animated Disney-movie you want )
An hour and 20 minutes later the movie is over.
"Awwww, so cute!" says Spencer.
"Yay! Movie was awesome." says Aria.
"Extra awesome." says Melissa.
14 year old Spencer and 14 year old Aria got their pocket-money today and their parents let the two girls go to the mall alone for the first time.
"I need the new Spice Girls CD." says Spencer as they enter the record-store.
"I'm gonna buy a new jacket instead. Spice Girls are kinda cool, but I'd rather buy a cool jacket than a CD." says Aria.
"Hey, Aria! There's that guy you like." says Spencer when she sees Noel Kahn at the other side of the store.
"Keep it down, Spence. I don't want anyone to know about that. Noel would never even look at me." says Aria in a low voice.
"Aria, go talk to him. You're smart, beautiful and very nice. No guy should be able to say no to you." says Spencer.
"I wish I was confident enough to talk to Noel and see if he like me too, but I'm so shy and he's so hot." says Aria, looking very sad.
"You won't know how he feels about you if you never talk to him." says Spencer.
"True, but if he hate me I've made such a huge mess for myself and I don't want that." says Aria.
Almost a month after Alison's disappearance.
"Aria, your dad and I have decided that since you don't wanna leave your friends, you can live with the Hastings-family while we move to Iceland for a year." says Mrs Montgomery.
"Thanks, mom!" says Aria, happy to be able to stay in Rosewood with Spencer, Hanna and Emily.
"Remember to do well in school and be nice to your friends." says Mrs Montgomery.
"Of course. Don't worry about me, mom. I'm almost an adult and I'm sure Mr and Mrs Hastings will take good care of me." says Aria.
Only a week later Aria moves into the Hastings-home.
"We don't have a guest-room, so you girls will need to share Spencer's bedroom." says Mrs Hastings to Aria and Spencer.
"That's okay, mom." says Spencer with a smile.
"Yeah, cause that's what Spencer and I want to anyway." says Aria.
Aria and Spencer spend every day together during the summer and Spencer tells Aria to lose the pink highlights in her hair, which Aria does with joy, thinking it's time to become more mature and adult-like.
They mostly keep to themselves and don't hang out with Hanna and Emily, though Spencer does send a txt-message to Emily at times.
When Byron, Ella and Mike return to Rosewood they are surprised to see a more mature Aria waiting for them. She now dress much less child-like.
Ella is very surprised to see her daughter without pink highlights in her dark hair.
"Aria, what's happened to the pink?" says Ella.
"I decided it's time to grow up, so pink's out and regular dark-haired me is in." says Aria in a calm mature tone.
"Okay, if that's what you want I'm fine with that." says Ella with a smile.
"Aria, do you want to move back home with us or stay with Spencer?" says Byron.
"To live with Spencer's been awesome, but I do wanna move back into my own room." says Aria.
"Nice to hear." says Ella.
Later that day Aria tell Spencer that her family is home again and that she's moving back in with them.
"Spence, I'm movin' back in with my mom and my dad." says Aria.
"I understand." says Spencer in her classic mature tone.
"Good. We'll still see each other and since school begins again on Monday we'll see each other there too." says Aria.
