AN: I don't own, as usual. And thanks for the reviews. They make me ever so happy. =DDD But... I'm sorry for the short chapters. I'm not sure they'll turn out as long as you like. But to make up for that, I'll update one to two times a day. ;D

It was the usual after school Friday for me. Student Council meeting, Field Hockey, trip to WaWa, then home. Unfortunately I was only on number two of my list. Since Ian so obviously couldn't continue to be the field hockey coach, the school hired a new teacher, one who didn't have a criminal record.
She. Was. Torture. I swear I thought I was going to die there. We had to do around seven laps across the entire field and back. If you stopped at all, or started walking, that was an added lap. A normal coach would've made us do three or so. Three! But I wasn't one to complain, so I didn't. To get my mind off the stabbing pain in my calves, I decided to let my mind settle on something Aria had told me the morning before. A.
She was all worked up when I found her, and she looked like she'd pulled an all-nighter. After a lot of prodding, she finally said she got a text from A. Not just one, but a few. I wondered why the new 'fraud' A was only targeting Aria, and not the rest of us. Aria said it probably had something to do with Clone Ali coming into Rosewood. I wasn't sure what to believe... well, because Mona is dead. I mean... dead, dead.
So after an hour or so of practice, we were let loose. I ripped off my sweaty, blue gear and ran a spikey brush through my tangled hair. It took me around ten minutes to get packed up, say my good-byes and hop into my car, where I could finally call Aria and tell her my take on the story.
She answered on the first ring, and I knew she'd been waiting.
"Aria?" I asked, putting the car into gear.
"Yeah, what's up?"
"So, I've been thinking. About what you said, you know." I answered, shielding my eyes from the sun. It was beating at just the right angle, unfortunately.
"And?" She asked, her tone completely changing.
"Well, I'm thinking, as much as I don't want to say this, that maybe Mona got someone to carry on for her."
"Seriously? You... believe me?"
"Uh, yeah..." I said, kind of shocked that the others wouldn't. Besides Hanna, of course. After she'd become Queen Bee, she didn't seem to care about anything except ruining Kate.
"I'm thinking A is Addison, Spence." She said, sounding like she really meant it.
"No, I don't think so. No... I think Addison is... somehow related to Ali. I mean, she has to be because -" I was cut off. My phone was vibrating against my ear. One new text message.
"Ah, hold on, Aria."
So you haven't figured it out yet, huh, Spence? I mean, what did you think? You shouldn't be putting all this blame on Addison! Look at what happened to Alison and Toby. Dead, dead, dead. Watch what ya say, Spence.
Kisses!
- A
I blinked a few times, and the only thing that broke me out of my dream-like state was the sound of Aria yelling my name through the reciever. I clicked end, and placed the phone shakily to my left ear as I pulled slowly into WaWa.
"Aria..." I breathed.
"What happened? Was it... ?" She asked knowingly.
"Uh-huh."
