Chapter 5

Returning home after school I was happy to go to my brownstone next to Spencer's. Home wasn't Charlie's quaint two bedroom house even if it was homey. Home was a large Victorian red and white house in the end of a beautiful cul-de-sac with a big beautiful yard filled with flowers and backyard with a hot tub and the remains of a large gazebo.

"I'm home"

I called out crossing the open front door. Large boxes were everywhere but things seemed to be mostly done as the in-between owners hadn't changed the color of the walls or anything big. Grabbing a pair of boxes with the words "Alison room" to the side I crept up the stairs to my room. My pink walls were still there and a pair of workers were setting up my bed.

"We'll be done soon miss"

One of them said as I stepped in. I shook my head with a smile

"Take your time"

In a corner a set of smaller boxes were thrown and I picked a blue read and white medal peeking our from one of them. I picked it with a fond smile letting memories flood in

"The new family threw some stuff out honey but we got them back"

Mom called out bringing me back to reality. I shook my head again

"It's okay. it's just knickknacks"

I replied mindful of the workers setting up my bed. There are ears everywhere in Rosewood, I would know! From a neatly packed suitcase I picked my old workout clothes and headed for my bathroom

"I'll go for a run, be out of your hair"

"Don't go far!"

I rolled my eyes and closing the door behind me I changed to a pair of deep blue yoga pants and a baby blue sports bra heading to the backyard to do some yoga. I had picked it last year since Bella was supposed be completely unathletic and I always liked to be in my best.

As I stretched this way and that breathing in the fresh air my eyes watched Spencer and her sister Melissa argue over something and an overgrown toddler-man in bad preppy sweater joined them. Melissa clung on to him like he was a trophy husband while Spencer smiled like a teacher's pet.

Seems like the sisters are after the same man again. So what do I do...

I stretched as far as I could and let my body fall over the side making sure to hit my calf to the metal railing of the back porch

"AH"

I let out a wild yelp getting the attention of everyone around. I felt tears coming to my eyes as my calf throbbed. Hearing people around I milked it for a bit and didn't let anyone touch me whimpering.

"Don't worry, I'm a doctor"

A British voice reached me and I let a sniffle out.

"I bet you say that to all the girls"

"Actually I do"

He said with a smile and I let a chuckle

"What happened?"

He asked as he lifts the pant leg off my hurt calf. It had only reddened but was still throbbing. Looks like I'd get a bruise too

"I was doing yoga and got a cramp. it really is nothing"

I downplayed it quickly. a pair of soft hands began massaging and touching my leg. He nodded soon.

"Nothing broken"

"I'm a terrible klutz; I trip over thin air sometimes. It's a good thing to have a doctor nearby"

I said with a charming smile and let him help me up.

"Wren Kingston"

"Isabella DiLaurentis"

Leaning against the fence I asked him if he had any cards around, for emergencies.

"I'm still in med school actually but this is my cell phone"

He took my left hand and jolted a number down quickly, kind of eager. I smiled and nodded

"I'll be your best client doc"

I chuckled and waved as he left when Melissa called.

"Are you okay?"

Dad rushed with his suit and his car keys in hand. I nodded

"Yeah, I just need to soak it up in the tub later"

Both sisters want a major flirt. Looks like it's time for an Ian Thomas reboot.

A leftover of Bella was a compulsion to make sure all homework was over and done with before playing. And playing I did! changing to a slightly small aqua bikini I stood in front of my window that saw straight to Spencer's long enough to get her attention when she looked up and then went to the backyard, turned on the Jacuzzi and slipped in letting a relieved sigh.

I really missed that in Forks...

with my head leaning on the side and my eyes staying on the starry night I was lost in my thoughts wondering if I could contact Charlie to tell him I was safe or if I'd screw everything up if I did when a cough surprised the bubbles out of me

"Scaring me into a heart attack? Not very doctorly of you"

I mocked gasping with my hand staying on my heart for a moment. He laughed with dimples appearing on his cheeks. at least he's cuter than Ian.

"Mind if I join you? Melissa's is broken"

I bit my tongue not to take the bait and with a glance at my house I nodded biting my lip

"Sure"

He sloshed the water as he came in and looked at my left calf extended on the bench

"Still bothering you?"

"A little. I've had worse though"

I shrugged expecting him to change his tune. what he did though was reaching for me leg. I gasped as he uncrossed my legs and slid closer taking my left leg on his lap and began massaging it.

"you're very good at that"

I breathed feeling my stomach clench as his hands traveled all over my leg starting from my toes and reaching all the way to my upper thigh. And here I thought I might have to actually flirt with him!

"Think I should quit my day job?"

He breathed before leaning in for a kiss. I kissed him back for a moment.

"I think you've got me confused. I'm not that type of girl. I don't go for taken men doctor wren"

I said softly and climbed out of the tub leaving him wanting more. Without a backwards glance I slipped on my red flip-flops and patted down with my towel. by the time I had stopped by the kitchen for a glass of water and was in my room I had clear view of Spencer's room where she and doc where in a very heated make out. I grasped my nokia and took a photo of them. When they came up for air and Spencer threw him out her room she looked up.

I smirked at her shocked face and lifted a finger to my lips making 'shh'. She nodded fearful; I waved and closed the white lace curtains. I plopped on my bed.

1 down, three to go
