A/N: I am so so sorry for all the late updates! I've been super busy later, but all my stories will be updated (I promise not to leave any of them unfinished – I hate it when that happens, so I won't do it to you haha). Anyway, thanks to all of you who have favorite this or put this story or me on your alert lists. Also thanks to those who have read or review. On with the story!

Chapter 3: Double Meanings
When Emma returned from the bathroom, there was a visible change in the room. Charlotte jumped up from where she was sitting on the sleeping bag and charged over to Emma.
"Sutton, what is this?" Charlotte asked, shoving the phone into Emma's face. Emma read the text that was on the screen, and a shiver of realization went up her spine. Sutton had used her supernatural powers to send the girls a text.
"I don't-"
"Is this your idea of a sick prank?" Laurel cut Emma off. Now Emma was confused.
"What are you talking about?" Emma asked.
"Oh don't act like you don't remember," Charlotte snorted sharply, more than a little miffed at the situation.
"I seriously don't know what you're talking about," Emma insisted.
"Sutton, cut the innocent act," Madeline spoke up.
"What act?"
"You should just be grateful we covered for you or you'd be in jail right now," Laurel added.
Now not only was Emma confused, but so was I. What were they talking about? Had I heard Laurel right? I'd be in jail right now if they hadn't covered for me?
Emma stood there, shocked at what Laurel had said. Jail? What did Sutton do?
"You know what, just drop it," Charlotte said flatly. She turned on her heel and returned to her sleeping bag.
But Emma couldn't just drop it. Sutton did something. Something bad. And the rest of them were witnesses. But how did that connect with the text?
I was shocked, too. I couldn't remember what I did, only little flashes of a forest here and there. But then suddenly, a memory came flooding back to me like they had so many times before…
A/N: Okay stopping there. I know it's short, but I really needed to update this. I am planning on making it longer than I originally thought it would be. Be prepared for a Sutton Memory Chapter next! Please Review! Thanks!
