Secrets of Ali

It's been almost a month since the night of Jenna Marshall's accident and still Jenna is still in the hospital trying to cope up with everything that had happened to her. She lost her sight and her step brother Toby. she will be taken to the city to continue her therapy to have a normal life as possible even though she lost one of her senses. Even though life has definitely turned upside down for her she is not regretting any of her decision of coming up this plan. This is what she wants. the plan didn't went smoothly as she wants but at least the person she wants to get hurt had been hit. Although there are some complications, like she is not supposed be blinded by the stink bomb and Toby is not supposed to be away.

The room is very quiet as no one is with Jenna in her room. Her parents left her to get something but this doesn't scare her. her four other senses are very sharp now, she know when someone is looking at her and besides there is only one person that she is afraid of, but after being blinded or more or less a few more days before that accident, her cowardly act for that person just vanishes. And that person is gonna visit her today. a visitor named Alison Di Laurentis.

Someone knocked in Jenna's room and poked her head in the room, "Jenna, you have a visitor, her name is Alison. I will leave the both of you now ok?"

"So you really are here." Jenna spoke first.

"Yes. I want to say sorry for what we did." Alison spoke very clearly but with a hint of annoyance that she needs to apologize. Why did she ever come here? She didn't care about Jenna. She tricked her to put the stink bomb in their house. So in a way the five of them have no reason to feel guilty of what happened. But she can't tell that to the other girls. Jenna did this to herself. But Alison is interrupted with her thoughts because Jenna spoke again.

"Is that from the heart or just because I threatened you that I will talk if you didn't say that?" Jenna said acidly, enjoying that now she have something to hold against Alison. Or whoever she is, because she know Alison is not who really she is. She recently found out that Ali has a twin sister that is in a mental hospital. With this information in her she is holding Alison in her hand comfortably. Jenna wants to get revenge to Ali and her four little friends, that's why she confronted Ali a few days before her accident and conjured up this plan. If Ali will not do it, Jenna threatened her that she will tell each and every one here in rosewood what she knows. It will ruin her reputation as the IT girl and of course also her family. This may be the sweetest revenge that she can have for everyone that Alison Di Laurentis hurts embarrassed and ruined their lives. Including her own life. Before being blinded, Jenna is one of the most beautiful faces in rosewood but as Ali doesn't like her, no one makes friends with her even though she's kinda cool and not nerdy; no one wants to be friends with her just because she is disliked by Ali. Of course her little posse also follows, so is the whole rosewood. This makes her life miserable, every comment Ali makes about her, anger is bubbling inside her. Vowing she will make everything to make Ali's life miserable too.

"What do you want? I come here just like you told me to." Ali hated every moment of this conversation. She could be doing something much more important than this. But she couldn't go. She is protecting something. More like someone.

"Relax Ali. I just want to talk to you." Savoring every moment of her revenge to the girl who makes her life hell. "You didn't follow our little plan. Toby is not supposed to be involved. You shouldn't have
threatened him and let him take the fall. You are the one who is supposed to take the fall."

"I'm not that stupid Jenna. I have no intention from the very start to put my name in this. You're not the only one who has tricks up their sleeves. I made sure your loving brother gets to see me, to see us, put that stink bomb. Boys are so easy to manipulate. Don't you know that Jenna?" Ali answered confidently. She will not let this person ruin her life. Of course she thought about this through. Knowing Jenna wants to ruin her she needs to find someone who she can put the blame on, and her brother is there so it's much easier. Although she have no intention of blinding her. their plan is just to put the stink bomb in the house and when the cops got there Ali will tell everything she does. Ali carefully timed this plan when Toby is peeking at Emily's room so that she knows Toby is just nearby and makes sure watching every move they make.

"What do you mean? I have you in my hands and yet you didn't follow me. You let my brother get sent away!" Jenna shouted. Why is this all turning wrong? Ali's life is supposed to be ruined but it's not. It's still her life that is ruined.

"your not the only one who is hiding a secret you know. Toby is too. And I know everything from him so I let him took the fall. If not his life will be much more ruined. He may go to juvy this time around." Ali smirked satisfied on where this conversation is going. How she hated when someone is in control other than herself. Jenna's plan backfired and she is the only target. Ali can't stop smiling.

"What do you know about Toby?" she is beginning to be scared again by Ali. What does Toby needs to hide from her? She loves Toby more than a sibling. Besides being in love with Toby is not wrong. It's not their fault that they became step siblings. It's their parents fault.

"Ha! Why do you think I should tell you that? And don't threaten me about my little secret because what I have can totally ruin your Toby's life. You don't want that right?" smiling despite of the heated conversation that's happening between the two of them. Glad that she really is gaining control again.

Jenna is lost for word. She can't think of any single retort that may have an effect on Ali. If there's one thing she regretted that happen since the accident is when Toby is sent away to a reform school. She loves her very deeply. She can't let anything happen more to her beloved Toby. Thinking hard, two can play this game, although this is kind of a long shot, "if you don't keep your mouth shut about Toby I will put the blame on your four little girls. Everyone will believe me. I was the one been blinded."

"What? Don't you involve them here!" Alison shakes her head angrily but still controlling her voice so that Jenna will not notice she is scared for her four girls. Wanting to slap her. She can't let anything happen to the girls. To her girl. Of course Alison can't tell Jenna that. This is the only reason that she is here. This is the only reason she is following Jenna. Don't you ever put my girl in trouble.

Jenna recognized something in Ali's voice. Fear. Why is she afraid of putting the blame on her group? Although normal people will not hear what Jenna heard, she became thankful that her other senses are now sharper. Sensing much more. Looks like she touched a nerve there. Thinking hard, if she played this well she may just fool Ali and still ruin her life. She must be careful and not show any emotion on her face. "I have a proposition for you Alison."

"I have no time for your nonsense Jenna!" Ali snapped back. No one treats her like this and she have no intention of letting Jenna do it.

"Think about this, if you let me blab about what you girls do to me all of your world will crumble." still thinking hard of what she said. She have a feeling Ali can find a loop hole in here and sure enough Ali finds it.

"If you do that I will tell everyone about Toby. What do I care if the girl's life will be miserable? I don't care about them!" Alison lied. She is telling the truth about Toby, but about the girls that is a downright lie.

Again Jenna senses something in Ali's voice. She is lying about something. She couldn't figure it now but there is something. She has a feeling it's about the girls. So she tried it. "Toby's life is already miserable and I know he is glad that he is not here anymore. His life is not dependent on his social status. But for you, are you sure you don't care about your group of friends? You don't care if all of their respect to you will vanish? Every little bit of trust and love will be gone if they knew that you let them fall down. Those innocent girls will never admire you again. No one will. Everyone will know how you blinded sweet little Jenna Marshall. They will all regret that they became your friends!"

That is below the line for Ali. "No! What do you want? I... I will do anything you want." Ali said sadly. For the first time in her life she is here in this situation. No way out but just to give in. if she didn't, she will loose everything that is important to her. Her reputation, respect everyone gives her, the image that is perfect and her friends, Aria Spencer Hanna and of course Emily. If she give in at least she will be just humiliated in this small room. She doesn't know why, but she knows after this chat nothing will come out of this room. No part of their conversation will be said again and her secret will be safe with Jenna. "I will do anything, but nothing will leave in this room."

Jenna had hit a homerun with what she said. She knows Ali is protecting something. After their heated argument she now knows that she can't take on Alison with the whole rosewood, but she can take her down here. In this small room, she can ruin Alison. If that is the price for being blind she will be glad to accept it.

"Tell me all your secrets. Answer every question truthfully or else. Believe me Alison I will know if you are lying."

"ok." is the only word Alison could muster to answer Jenna. This is the right thing to do. It's her life that Jenna wants to trample on, no one else.

"Why did you chose Spencer Aria Hanna and Emily to be your friends?"

"They all have something special. They have something that pulls me to them." Alison answered truthfully. She can't find any energy to lie. After this interrogation her life would be easy again.

No lies, "what's so special about Spencer? You two are always fighting. Is she the one you are protecting?"

"No, I'm scared of her. Scared that she may overshadow me with her achievements. she always challenged me. Something I find in Spencer worth keeping. There is no use in protecting her." Alison drones in a monotone. She don't know why but she can't help the feeling that if she says everything to her everything will be back to normal.

No lies again, "so it's the loner Aria you don't to want get hurt?" Jenna pushed to Ali." again no, Aria doesn't give a damn about what people thinks about her. I admire that with her. I even envied her with the level of confidence she have. Both she and Spencer don't need protecting." smiling despite of the way the talk is going. She don't want to admit all of this but there is something with Jenna that she need to justify herself with.

Still no lies, "if Aria and Spencer are the tough ones, you are protecting Hanna?"

"Every confidence of Aria is what Hanna is lacking. I'm her friend because I want her to build that confidence but as I get to know her, I know she will be much popular than me, much more liked than me." almost crying now. She never admits this to anyone. All her insecurities and weakness. She knows this is what Jenna wants from her.

Jenna can't believe this, Alison is telling the truth and from the tone of her voice it looks like she is about to cry. but she still continues, "how about Emily?"

"I need a jock in my group; she is the sweetest person I have ever met. She is not your usual jock that all that cares about is winning and awards. She does not deserve to feel any guilt from this mess. And I love her as more than a friend. So much it hurts." she really is crying now. She is the only reason why she came here. Emily has been too afraid of what they seem to have done to Jenna, she can't bear it. Alison can't bear seeing Emily in that state. She knows by doing this it will help Emily a lot. She loved her too much but also hates it. Because she doesn't want this feeling that everything in her world revolves around her. She realized this feeling on the night of the accident. She saw Emily in a different light.

"Love her?" Jenna's voice couldn't hide the surprise. Alison doesn't know how to love. She can't love Emily. But still she couldn't take any hint of lying. It's all true.

"Ha! You think I'm not capable of loving? So am I. but Emily did. She believed in me and I love her so much. Everything I'm doing now is because this is what Emily wants. I don't want you to hurt her. I hurt her enough. Don't put the blame on her. On them."

Something changed in Jenna's mind. She suddenly respected Alison. She doesn't know that Ali is capable of feeling all this insecurities and weakness. Especially love. She can't believe that Ali is scared of Spencer, envies Aria, threatened by Hanna and the most unbelievable part is, Ali loved Emily, more than a friend. All this sacrifice she does just for Emily. But she knows it's true. Alison is nothing but truthful in this entire conversation but still Jenna can't help the feeling that there is still something wrong. She knows that everything Ali said is true but how come when she is with her group it looks like she doesn't feel any of this to the girls, especially with Emily. "Are you trying to make fun of me? You don't feel anything like this to your friends! Especially with Emily. You are nothing but a bitch to them."

"I will hate myself for saying this but, that is how I react to all my insecurities and weakness. I will always put up a mask so that no one can see what I'm truly feeling. It's all about control and I have an extreme control over myself. Although sometimes I overdo it. Especially with Hanna and Emily." Alison explained.

Jenna can't believe what she had heard but somehow and how much impossible what Ali could have said, Jenna believed her.

"I think you got everything from me. One more thing before I go, Toby loved Emily too. Toby loved Emily as much as I love her. Toby took pictures of Emily whatever she is doing, changing dancing in her room and I hate him for that. I'm glad I got him sent away. I don't want him to go anywhere near Emily. She's mine." with that last piece she turns her back and let the tears fall freely and walked away from the person who knows everything about her.

"No one will know about this. I promise." Jenna whispered. She don't know if Alison heard it or not but whatever is said in this room it will stay with the two of them. Everything she said it makes her admire and respect Ali. Although she didn't get to ruin Ali's life outside this room, she felt she did. She gets to see the other side of her that no one even gets to take a peek at. It makes Jenna see how strong Alison is, how she is as truly another person without her mask off. Being blind is worth it. With that Jenna sleeps with a smile.
