I love Sasha. That is all.
"I got it!" Emily calls to Alison, who is in the bathroom, as she walks out of her bedroom to check who is knocking on the door. She grows nervous at the thought that maybe it's Wilden and he's finally found them because of that speeding ordeal- it isn't just Alison having nightmares anymore. But after she looks through the peephole, she flings the door open.
"Hanna?!"
"Surprise! We didn't get to see you at New Years, so we thought we'd visit," Hanna says with a grin. It was two weekends after New Year's day, and Emily was back in school with Alison now working at The Fitzgerald.
(Emily had made it clear to Ezra that nobody from home was to know she was hired there- these days safety and privacy were her priority)
"Wait, who's we?"
She sees two brunettes coming down the hall and her stress suddenly increases tenfold. Emily loves Spencer to pieces, but she hasn't talked to any of them, especially not her, since the last disastrous visit.
"Hey Em!" Aria greets cheerfully.
"Aren't you guys back in school?" Emily asks with a frown.
"We're glad to see you too," Spencer quips sarcastically. "And it's called a weekend."
"Are you going to let us in?" Hanna asks impatiently with an impish grin.
"Babe, who is it?"
All four hear Alison call from behind Emily- and as the blonde appears and wraps her arms around Emily from behind, her facial expression immediately changes when she sees the visitors.
"Oh, hi," she simply says as she struggles to put a smile on.
"So this is still a thing," Spencer comments dryly and Aria elbows her. Emily narrows her eyes and wonders if Spencer's told them what she knew.
"We wanted to surprise Emily, so we decided to invite ourselves over to crash at her place," Hanna tells Alison brightly, clearly still enthusiastic about the blonde.
"Wish I had friends like you guys," Alison says with a small smile as she nuzzles Emily with her head affectionately.
"Alison lives with me now," the brunette says cautiously. The two of them suddenly catch all the judgmental stares. "But you guys can totally crash in the living room."
"Fine with me," Spencer immediately says and Alison's eyes narrow at her, knowing the brunette is just trying to get a rise out of her.
"Yeah, I'll make her sleep on the floor," Hanna adds with a smile.

The five girls decide to leave and walk through the nearest mall, and surprisingly it is Emily that is glued to Alison's side, not the other way around. The brunette feels more protective than ever with Spencer around, and she hasn't had a chance yet to lecture the witty Hastings about how wrong she is.
"Can we please go into Victoria's Secret? I need new lingerie, I'm tired of my old shit," Hanna asks though she's already begins to stray towards the pink store.
"Sure, why not, whatever Hanna wants," Aria jokes quietly and Emily smirks.
"Shut up, Ezra and Toby are probably bored of seeing you two in the same old boring black stuff," Hanna throws back with a smirk and then she looks at Emily and Alison, still off to the side holding hands. "I don't know about you two but I'm sure Alison's got great lingerie. Em maybe you need to step up your game."
"Emily is hotter without anything on," Alison says with a devilish smile though she feels Emily hit her with their intertwined hands.
"Ali!" she exclaims quietly under her breath even though the blonde just shrugs.
"What? It's true."
"Girl you need to help me find stuff," Hanna says grabbing Alison's free hand. "Emily can I please borrow your hot girlfriend so she can help me pick out stuff to wear?"
Emily sighs and rolls her eyes at Hanna's antics as she lets go of Alison.
"Don't worry, I won't look," Alison says softly as she looks at Emily with a wink but a genuine smile and kisses her on the cheek.
"Alright lovebird, I'm just taking you to the other side of the store, not the other side of the world," Hanna quips as she pulls Alison with her. Alison smiles and is thoroughly amused with the chirpy blonde. She'd liked Hanna when she met her.
As soon as the two blondes are out of sight, Spencer and Aria whip around quickly to Emily and the brunette feels ambushed.
"Seriously? You already let her move in? How well do you even know her?" Spencer asks accusingly and Emily glares at her.
"Back off Spencer, you're not my mom," Emily snaps.
"I hate to break it to you, but you don't know her," Spencer argues and Emily aggressively steps toward her.
"I do too Spencer, and it's not how you think it is."
"Did she give you the same speech she gave everyone else?"
"She gave me the truth!"
"Did I miss something?" Aria steps in, confused. The two just look at her frustrated. She puts her hands up defensively. "I thought we were just discussing how it's too soon to move in."
"Spencer is just being judgmental as usual," Emily says through gritted teeth.
"I'm just protecting you," Spencer shoots back.
"Well someone's gotta protect Alison. And too bad the Hastings couldn't do that," Emily says angrily.
"Okay now I'm really confused," Aria interjects.
Meanwhile, Hanna holds up yet another red lacy bra that Alison looks at for a brief moment before shrugging.
"Come on, it's cute isn't it?" Hanna asks impatiently.
"You said 'bold and sexy' if I remember correctly," Alison says with a raised eyebrow.
"Ugh yes, what did you wear at work?"
Alison freezes, realizing what Hanna means. She looks carefully at the other blonde.
"How'd you know?"
"Emily's mom told us," Hanna shrugs. She keeps sorting through underwear and pulls a lacy purple thong out. But when she looks back, she sees Alison standing uncomfortably. "What? I'm not judging you, if I wanted to be an asshole about it I would've done that already. I think it's kinda hot."
Alison relaxes a little, relieved that Hanna isn't taking it too seriously.
"I'm not anymore if that makes a difference."
"What are you doing?"
"Waitressing, officially," Alison says with a smile and Hanna smiles back.
"Good. Now please tell me this is sexy."
"Try again," Alison teases as Hanna groans and throws back yet another pair of panties.

"I don't have to explain myself or Alison to you," Emily snaps angrily. "You should trust me. I'm one of your best friends, Spencer."
"I do! I trust you. It's her I don't trust."
"You don't even know her!"
"I read up my mom's old case files. Did you know her sister's in a psych ward? That being a psycho runs in their family?"
"I knew that!" Emily growls as she gets in Spencer's face. "She told me everything."
"Guys!" Aria shouts for the fourth time, pushing herself between the two heated brunettes. "What the hell are you two talking about? Spencer how the hell do you know Alison?"
"Emily can explain it to you," Spencer huffs frustrated as she crosses her arms.
"I didn't ask Emily, I asked you. Besides, why are we attacking her again? Poor Alison, she seems nice and all despite the stripping thing-"
"How do you know about that?" Emily jumps in.
"Your mom told us. We ran into her back home."
"Well she's not anymore-"
Emily's phone begins to ring and she sighs. "Hold on," she insists as she picks up. "Hello?"
"Em your girlfriend looks fucking hot in the lingerie I picked out for her!" Hanna squeals over the phone.
"I picked it out myself!" Emily hears Alison say in the background and she can't help but laugh when Hanna tells her 'shut up, it was mostly my decision'.
"I'm glad you're getting your shopping done," Emily teases.
"I'm doing this for your benefit," Hanna says proudly but Alison once again speaks up in the background.
"She wanted to see how it looked on me before she tried," Alison says loudly.
"Well I knew if it looked hot on her it might look hot on me," Hanna justifies herself and Emily laughs finally. "Don't you wanna see?"
"Send a picture, I'm a little busy right now," Emily says softly.
"You'd like that wouldn't you? No you have to come see it now. You can't be too busy to see your hot girlfriend in her new panties."
"I can't afford these Hanna!" Emily hears in the back and she shakes her head, the smirk never disappearing from her face.
"Shut up Alison I told you I have a credit card here!"
"That's not the same as a gift card Hanna!"
"Oh my god, okay I'll be there in a minute, don't kill yourselves," Emily muses as she hangs up. She looks back to both Spencer and Aria. "I'm going over to see Hanna and Alison. And you all are more than welcome to stay, I really appreciate that you came. But if you say one word to make Alison uncomfortable, you can leave."
The two aren't used to this abrasive, defensive Emily and they just nod slowly. Spencer has to force herself not to speak.
When they get over to the dressing rooms, Emily calls out for Hanna.
"Right here!" Hanna yells from behind a door and the three hear Ali squeak in protest with a small scuffle, and then the door suddenly flies open.
"Hanna!" she shrieks as playfully as she blushes, her arms quickly wrapping around her body.
"Hanna I don't want the whole world to see my girlfriend half naked!" Emily says laughing as Alison glares at Hanna, embarrassed.
"Emily your friend is torturing me," Alison complains but there's a twinkle in her eye that lets the brunette know she's kidding.
"Oh please you'd love that, little miss kinky over here!" Hanna smirks and Alison hits her horrified.
"Shut up!"
"She's going to find out at some point," Hanna shrugs and looks at Emily who is looking at the two of them with curious eyes. They are quite a sight- Alison is standing in deep purple lacy lingerie with her arms crossed in the corner, and Hanna is half dressed with jeans on and a bra with her hands on her hips and a smirk on her face.
Aria and Spencer just look on silently with wide eyes.
"Em shut the door!" Alison whines childishly and Emily gives in.
"Okay, Hanna, get out," Emily says shaking her head as she walks in and Hanna practically skips out.
"You're welcome," Hanna says in a singsong voice and Emily pulls the door shut and locks it. She looks at Alison who is blushing hard.
"What's this about being kinky?"
"What's this about me being your girlfriend?"
Now it's Emily's turn to blush- they hadn't officially discussed their relationship, both of them had been too busy. Of course it was understood, but neither had really asked.
"I'd love to be," Alison says, nudging Emily gently with a small smile on her face and the brunette looks at her slowly.
"For real?"
"For very real," Alison jokes as she wraps her arms around Emily's neck and leans in lovingly. "Sorry, you can't get rid of me now."
"I would never," Emily says with a cheesy grin spreading across her face. Alison giggles softly and presses her lips to Emily's. They are suddenly interrupted though.
"I need my shirt!"
The two hear Hanna banging on the door from outside and Alison's eyes twinkle with mischief. She slams Emily against the door of the stall with a loud thud and brings her hand up to squeeze her right breast while aggressively kissing her. Emily can't stop the natural loud moan that escapes her and the two hear Hanna yell "Ew guys!" in disgust and leave.
"Ali!" Emily scolds but the blonde looks at her innocently.
"She was killing the vibe!"
"You're a bundle of trouble," Emily shakes her head.
"But I'm YOUR bundle of trouble," Alison says as she keeps her body pressed against Emily. "And now, you have me in sexy lingerie in a dark dressing room. Don't just stand there."
Emily finally lets her hands come to settle on her hips and pull her closer. Her hands begin to slip behind and hold Alison's ass, gripping tightly as she rests her face in the crook of Ali's neck and places little kisses on it.
"Better?"
"Is that all you've got?"
The blonde suddenly gasps as she feels Emily flip them around with force and drop to her knees. Alison can't even think before Emily grabs the panties she's wearing and pulls them down and they fall to her feet. Her hands rest on Alison's thighs and gently nudge them apart and Alison whimpers as Emily's lips trace up the inside of her thigh.
Alison closes her eyes and leans back against the door. "Okay, better."

"Loosen up come on!" Hannah screams over the loud music in the night club as she holds her drink in one hand and pulls Emily along with the other. The brunette sighs, not knowing how she got talked into a night out clubbing. But she remembers that Alison had looked at her with a pout when the other girls had insisted on it, and she knew the blonde was dying to let loose and go out. So she had agreed, but only because she wanted the rest of them to be happy.
"But Alison is over t-"
"She's fine, she's with Aria and Spencer, they won't bite," Hanna says as she approaches the bar and yanks Emily up to the counter. "Two shots of tequila with lime for this one!"
Hanna calls out and the bartender acknowledges her with a grin and nod.
"Tequila?! No!"
"Oh relax, last time wasn't so bad," Hanna muses but they both remember it clearly- Hanna had dragged Emily out despite Paige's wishes and gotten her fucked up on tequila. Emily had been a staggering, hot mess and way too flirty that night for her own good. Paige had shown up and caught her being overly flirty with a boy, obviously non-intentionally, and dragged her home. What Hanna didn't know was that Paige had yelled at Emily all night relentlessly and they ended up in a physical fight over it.
"I don't want Alison to see me like that," Emily worries as flashes of Paige screaming at her cross her mind.
"Alison loves you. She's fucking crazy about you," Hanna reassures her. "She'll probably try to take advantage of drunk you."
Emily looks at her strangely and Hanna clarifies. "You're just very handsy when you're drunk."
"I don't know-"
"She's not Paige," Hanna says firmly as though she can read Emily's mind.
"But-"
"Emily Fields, drink the fuck up!"

Alison hangs out on the dance floor with Aria and Spencer. She likes Aria a lot, it's just Spencer that she still can't get past. The tiny brunette is quite buzzed and keeps holding on to Alison for balance, and Ali can't help but smile kindly at her. But she notices Spencer giving her dirty looks, and she can't help but feel Spencer is not only wary of her, but jealous of the attention all the girls are giving her- particularly Aria right now.
Still, Alison doesn't let it phase her and continues to sip her drink and dance with Aria. If she liked Spencer, she would feel bad that Spencer was the only sober one as DD.
"Hey gorgeous."
Alison turns around at the feel of someone's hand on her lower back. But it's not who she wants to see- it's a stuck up blonde guy who looks like he cares more about his looks than anything else.
"Sorry I'm not interested," she quips and he raises an eyebrow at her.
"Yeah, she's not interested," Aria adds for her.
"What? Are you fuckin gay or something?" he asks with a laugh.
"None of your fucking business," Alison says with suddenly stormy blue eyes. Her claws came out easily when strangers irritated her. "Get lost."
He rolls his eyes and walks away.

Half an hour later, Alison is antsy to find Emily. She hasn't seen the brunette since she watched Hanna whisk her off in an attempt to get her drunk. As much as she likes hanging out with Aria, she is getting drunk and needs Emily.
"Let's go find the other two," Alison says loudly to Aria and the brunette nods. They go off in search of their two friends, with Spencer in a reluctant tow.
When they make their way over to the bar, Alison sees the two standing off to the corner with two guys where there are a few tall tables. As her eyes narrow and she approaches, she recognizes one pretty boy as the guy who was hitting on her- and he has his hands all over what appears to be a drunk Emily.
Spencer catches sight of Alison's drunk eyes darkening and she whispers, "Watch this" to Aria as Alison storms up to the table.
"Hey asshole," she says snidely.
"You again," he says irritated.
"Yes, me," she says and sees Emily looking at her hungrily with suddenly almost black eyes. She smirks because she knows she looks damn good tonight- she's wearing a red strapless dress that barely hits mid-thigh and it makes her ass look amazing, not to mention her boobs are falling out of her dress.
It makes her smug smile widen when she sees the guy look at Emily as she pulls away from him.
"Ali, can we go dance?" Emily asks (but it sounds more like a demand) as she licks her lips, the alcohol setting a buzz throughout her body as warm sensations shoot straight to her core at the sight of Alison.
"Of course," Alison says with a smile and the guy looks on with an angry face. "If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go dance with my incredibly sexy girlfriend."
With that, the two pull each other to the dance floor, laughing and groping and stumbling the whole way.
And unbeknownst to them, there are bitter eyes watching from the shadows.

He watches as the four girls stand in the distance, dancing. But he focuses on the blonde in front of him.
"Can I have your number?" he asks politely and she smiles- he recognizes that look. It's sympathetic.
"I'm sorry, I'm dating someone."
"I should have guessed that a pretty girl like you would be taken," he says apologetically but his insides are turning. Of course she's taken already.
"You're a great guy, I'm sure you'll find someone soon."
"What did you say your name was?"
"Hanna, what was yours?"
"Derrick." Lie.
"Nice meeting you, I've got to get back to my friends though."
"Is that them over there?"
"Yeah, those four!"
"Oh, the blonde is pretty-"
"Don't even think about it, she's taken by my best friend right there- that sexy brunette."
He feels his anger boil. So his suspicions were right. They had been too close to be roommates. But he smiles politely.
"Well, I'm sure I'll see you around sometime."
"Probably not," Hanna says with a small smile. "Have a good night."
Pretty sure you all know what's coming. Let me know what you think, aka review :)
