After spending the late night in the pool and hot-tub, the girls decided to stay up together on their last night at the beach. They all showered and brought multiple blankets and pillows and had a movie night.

Alison went into the entertainment room and brought of a basket filled with movies, "pick one," the blonde said to the four girls sitting around the living room. Hanna and Aria got up and rambled through the basket.

"Oo! We should watch The Notebook!" Aria chimed. Hanna rolled her eyes, "hell no. No mushy love movie."

Aria frowned and put the case back in the basket, continuing to look through the movies. Alison sat down beside of Emily. Alison loved the smell of Emily's body wash. It was strong and smelt so clean and pure, which reminded Alison of Emily's sweet innocence.

Emily pulled Alison into her with one arm and Alison leaned back on the brunette. Emily was scrolling through her social media apps and absentmindedly put her arm around Alison. Alison's lips pressed together, "Em." Emily looked up from her phone and over at the blonde. Alison continued once she had Emily's focus, "pay attention to me."

Emily put her phone down on the table next to the couch she was sitting on, when she turned her body back to Alison she started to tickle the blonde, making her laugh. Alison laughed hard, begging the brunette to stop. "I thought you wanted attention?" Emily playfully responded, hovering over Alison's body.

Alison grabbed Emily's face and pulled Emily down to kiss her. Emily rested her tickling hands on the couch, cornering Alison's body in her arms on the couch. When Alison parted her lips from Emily's she smiled, "I knew that would make you stop."

Emily smiled and plopped back down on the couch. "PDA..public display of Alison. Never thought I'd see the day," Spencer jokingly commented. Alison laughed, "sorry, Spence."

"I found one! We are definitely watching I Know What You Did Last Summer," Hanna said, pulling the DVD case out of the basket. "No," Spencer said, "seriously Han? That's too close to what happened with A. I don't think so."

"Aw c'mon, don't be a pus-," Hanna replied but stopped when she saw Aria's glare, knowing Aria hated that word. Emily shook her head, "I agree with Spence. Don't you think it's a little too…similar?"

"You guys do remember A is dead, right? That we solved things months ago?" Hanna responded.

Spencer rolled her eyes, "fine, whatever. But if you have nightmares tonight, don't say I told you so." Hanna shrugged, "I don't get nightmares, Spence. I know I'm safe now."

Alison shifted in her seat. The blonde had experienced some horrible things within the past three years. After her years of darkness, she had to go through multiple therapy sessions to help with the thoughts she had at night. She never told her friends because she didn't want to show any sign of weakness. But Alison experienced nights were her nightmares were so bad she would wake her dad and Jason up because of her screams. When her family members often came to wake her up, they would sometimes find her their covered in sweat or her cheeks wet from tears.

Alison didn't like scary movies, shows, stories, or anything that related to death, murder, or darkness. Her life had been a horror movie at one point for years, she did need it for entertainment.

Emily noticed a change in Alison's body language. The brunette put her hand on Alison's leg, "Ali? Are you okay?" Alison jumped, and then nervously smiled, trying to hide her anxiety, "yeah, of course."

"Okay, so my movie it is," Hanna commented, putting the DVD in the movie player. Aria walked to the wall and shut the lights off in the living room.

Alison took a deep breath, trying to relax. "If anyone is scared, you're welcome to come cuddle with me," Hanna sarcastically laughed. "Shut up," Aria said, getting under the covers on the couch with Spencer. "Yeah, Team Sparia is definitely cuddling doing this movie," Spencer replied, reaching out for Aria.

"I'll sit by myself, I don't need protection," Hanna boasted. Emily laid down on the couch her and Alison were on and grabbed Alison's hand to pull her down with her. Alison laid on Emily's chest, wrapping her arm around Emily's torso and her leg around Emily's legs. Alison took a deep breath.

#######

Emily held on to Alison, rubbing her back. The music in the movie loudened and Alison gripped Emily a little tighter. Emily looked down at the blonde and whispered, "are you okay?" Alison slightly nodded her head against Emily's chest. Emily kissed Alison's forehead and wrapped her arm around Alison's waist, not believing the blonde.

Emily had felt Alison's body tense, her breathing hitch, and even felt her heart rate speed throughout the movie. When a loud scream occurred in the movie, Alison jumped, causing Emily to confirm her doubt in Alison's words.

Emily planted another kiss on Alison's forehead, "it's just a movie," Emily whispered, tightening her grip on Alison's waist. Alison turned her head from the movie, burying her face in Emily's neck.

Emily had had enough. She could tell that Alison was truly scared and she didn't want the girl she cared about most in the world to feel frightened. Emily was a protector, especially over Alison. She had always been.

Emily planted another soft kiss on Alison's forehead and started to sit up. Alison sat up along with the brunette, having to due to position. Emily stood up off of the couch and grabbed Alison's hand, "come on. Let's go to bed."

Alison didn't argue with Emily, she just got up and followed the tan girl. Even though she wouldn't admit it, she felt relieved that Emily was taking her from the movie. "Where are you guys going? It isn't over," Hanna commented, pausing the screen. "It's 3 in the morning, it is for us," Emily replied, answering for her and Alison.

"Yeah, I'm calling it a night too, Han," Spencer said, yawning and getting up from the couch. "Me too," Aria replied, standing up and stretching. Aria looked at Spencer, "can I sleep with you tonight? I don't want to sleep alone after watching that movie."

Spencer quickly responded, "I'm glad you asked because I was about to ask you." Hanna frowned, "oh, come on! You guys are such scaredy-cats."

Emily laughed, "goodnight guys, love you."

"Goodnight! Love you!"

"Love you, night!"

"Goodnight, pus-."

"Hanna!"

Alison followed behind of Emily, holding her hand. Emily led Alison upstairs and into the master bedroom. When the girls got inside, they crawled into bed.

Alison didn't say a word, she just threw her body closer to Emily's, cuddling up to the bronzed beauty. Emily softly touched Alison's face with her thumb, cupping the blonde's face. "Ali, what's wrong?" Emily asked. "Nothing," Alison replied. Emily tried again, "Alison."

Alison sighed, "I don't want to talk about it." Emily rubbed her thumb across of Alison's cheek, "I can't help if you don't let me."

Alison looked into Emily's eyes, seeing the concern practically fuming from Emily's face. "Sometimes I just have bad moments, bad thoughts," Alison replied. "About what?" Emily questioned.

Alison sighed. This was the first time Alison was telling anyone but her family and therapist about her nightmares and feelings.

"Sometimes I go into a state where I have panic attacks that I'm alone and that A is still trying to kill me. Sometimes I have nightmares. And some nights I have panic attacks that lead me into nightmares after falling asleep," Alison replied. The thought of Alison being scared and hurting made Emily's stomach drop.

Emily sat up and pulled Alison in her lap, wrapping her arms around the blonde, "as long as I'm here, I'll never let anything hurt you." A tear fell down Emily's face. Her heart ached for the blonde in her lap.

Alison's eyes softened and watered, "don't cry, you'll make me cry." Emily softly laughed, "I can't help it. You made me." Alison wiped a tear from Emily's face and kissed the tear stained mark. The blonde wrapped her arms around Emily's neck.

"I don't want you to ever feel scared or unsafe," Emily stated. Alison brought her forehead to Emily's, "you make me feel so much better." Emily leaned forward and met her lips to Alison's. The girls lips moved in sync together and Alison unwrapped her arms around Emily's face and brought her hands to Emily's face.

Emily slid her hands under Alison's t-shirt and touched her bare skin on her sides. Alison slowly moved her kisses down Emily's face, leaving her lips and trailing off down her jawbones, to her neck.

Emily eyes opened once Alison left her lips, but closed when she felt Alison's tongue make contact on her neck. Emily threw her head back, giving Alison exposure to Emily's neck. Emily ran her hands up the sides of Alison's body, slipping under her bra, finding her way to Alison's breasts.

When Alison felt Emily grab her breasts, Alison lightly bit Emily's skin. Emily let out a soft groan, not expecting the bite. The brunette twisted Alison's nipples, pinching them to harden the buds.

Emily pushed Alison's arms up over her head and took off Alison's shirt. Emily opened her eyes to look down at her view. Alison's blue globes were looking into Emily's brown one's. "I've said this so many times," Emily started, taking her eyes back down to Alison's chest, "but you are so beautiful."

Emily reached around Alison's back, never moving her eyes. The brunette slowly unhooked Alison's bra and slid the cloth off of Alison's body. Emily brought her hands to Alison's chest, softly touching her breasts. Alison closed her eyes, feeling Emily touch her.

Emily massaged Alison's breasts, causing a soft moan to escape Alison's lips. Emily's eyes raked over Alison's naked upper body, examining every freckle on her skin.

Alison brought her hands up to Emily's, grabbing onto Emily's hands that were still on Alison's breasts. Alison took Emily's hands and pinned them up over Emily's body and away from her breasts, "I want to see how beautiful you are now."

Emily felt a pull in a low place after Alison's husky voice spill those words. Alison lifted Emily's t-shirt off and looked down at Emily's chest.

Alison reached behind Emily and unstrapped her bra. Emily's breasts popped out from the cloth and Alison thew the bra across the room. Alison took her hands and palmed Emily's breasts. "I want to make you feel as good as you make me feel," Alison whispered, pushing Emily back and leaning forward.

Emily gently fell back onto the king sized bed and Alison hovered over her. Alison gripped Emily's breasts and played the nipple. Emily grabbed Alison's thighs, needing to touch the blonde. Alison buried her face into Emily's neck and started sucking on the skin while still allowing one hand to play with Emily's breast.

Emily slid her fingers up Alison's thigh and past the hem of her shorts and underwear. Emily dipped a finger into Alison's heat and slowly started moving in and out of the blonde. Emily felt Alison breath out on her neck when Emily slipped a finger into Alison.

Alison went back to sucking on Emily's neck and grasped Emily's breast harder in return of the pleasure she was getting. Emily closed her eyes feeling Alison's tongue swirl around her skin and grabbing her breast.

Emily slipped another finger into Alison and sped her fingers. Alison started to moan, trying to keep her sounds buried into Emily's skin. Hearing Alison moan out of pleasure was Emily's new favorite sound.

"Em, God," Alison roughly breathed, twisting Emily's nipple. Alison closed her eyes as she felt Emily working inside of her. Alison wrapped her arms around Emily's neck, barely able to keep herself up from the feeling of Emily's fingers.

Emily pulled her fingers out of Alison and grabbed the blonde's shorts, "I want these off." Alison reached down to help Emily pull her shorts and underwear off. When Alison briefly lifted herself off of Emily to help take her shorts off, Emily slid underneath Alison and gripped Alison's thighs to pull Alison down on her face.

Alison felt Emily's tongue on her clit and Alison's eyes rolled back, "fuck, Em," Alison moaned. Alison was taken back. She didn't expect for the brunette do this but God it turned Alison on. The blonde rolled her hips, grinding on Emily's face. Emily worked a rhythm on Alison's clit, flicking her tongue on Alison's bud.

Alison gripped onto the beds headboard for support. "Em, God," Alison moaned between each breath. Emily held Alison's thighs, trying to keep the blonde still so she could work her tongue better.

Alison's body started to tighten and her legs started to shake. Emily applied more pressure with her tongue, knowing Alison was moments away from her climax.

Alison's let out a high pitched moan, "baby." The blonde's orgasm crashed into her, sending her body on a high. Alison rolled her hips on Emily's face as the brunette kept rolling her tongue on Alison's clit. Alison's legs shook and her moans started to deepen, coming off of her orgasm but still feeling the pleasure of Emily on her clit.

Alison tried to control her unsteady breathing as she climbed off of Emily, "I wanted to be the one making you like this tonight." Emily smiled and pulled the sheets around the two girls, "I know, but I couldn't help myself."

Alison laid down with Emily, allowing Emily to big spoon the blonde. "You have made the beginning of my summer so amazing," Alison stated, intertwining her fingers with Emily's. Emily nuzzled her face into Alison's hair, "baby, huh?"

"What?" Alison questioned. "You called me baby," Emily grinned. Alison playfully rolled her eyes, remembering herself using the pet-name as Emily was making her orgasm. "Whatever," Alison smiled.

#######

"PLEASE, NO!"

Emily jolted up, hearing a scream. She quickly flipped over and brought her hands to Alison, "Ali, wake up," Emily said, panicking. Alison screamed again, "NO!"

Emily grabbed Alison's arms, "Alison, wake up!"

Alison's eyes flew open and her breathing was loud and uneven. Alison gasped her air and jumped when she saw Emily. After realizing it was Emily, Alison crawled over to her and threw her body in her arms.

"It was just a dream," Emily said, wrapped her arms tightly around Alison's body, kissing her head, "just a nightmare, you're okay, I'm right here."

Alison shook in Emily's arms. Emily held back her tears as she felt Alison's sweat. Emily held Alison until she stopped crying and shaking.

"I'll be right back," Emily said getting up. Alison's eyes widened, "where are you going? Please don't leave." Emily felt her heartbreak for the beautiful girl in front of her, "I'm just going to the bathroom."

Alison brought her knees to her chest and curled in a ball while sitting up. Emily picked up her shirt on the floor and slid it over her head. She walked into the bathroom, brought a damp cool cloth and a cup typically used for mouthwash, but Emily filled it up with water from the sink.

On the way back into the room, Emily picked up Alison's underwear and shirt and brought it back to the blonde. "Here," Emily said, handing Alison her clothes. Alison slipped the t-shirt over her body and tugged her underwear back on.

Emily crawled back into and handed Alison the cup of water. Alison took a sip and felt a bit more relaxed as the cool water hit her throat. Emily brought the cool washcloth up to Alison's face and wiped over the sweat, cooling the blonde off.

Alison sat the cup of water down on the table and snuggled under Emily, allowing her to continue wiping her face. Emily made sure Alison was sweat free and tossed the washcloth on the table. Emily pulled Alison's body back into hers and tightly held on to the blonde.

"I'm sorry that I woke you up," Alison softly stated. Emily kissed the back of Alison's head, "you have nothing to apologize for, it's okay."

Alison wiggled her body closer to Emily and closed her tired eyes, feeling safe in Emily's arms. Alison started to drift back off into a slumber as Emily's fingers traced circles on her skin. Alison's breathing started to ease and Emily knew the blonde had fallen asleep.

Emily closed her eyes and held on to Alison. She wanted to protect the blonde at all costs.
