Ezra and I are sitting on the bed and I am leaning against him. "Can you believe that next month we're going to have a baby? I real live baby. I am so excided." I said with my head in the clouds.
He running his fingers through my hair, "I can't. But we're ready and everything is going to be great… As long as you get as epidural." he said. This had been a argument between us that has gone on for a few weeks now- ever since he learned that I wasn't planning on getting said epidural.
"I will if I absolutely need one, if I don't I'm not going to bother with it." I informed him giving him a kiss on the lips. Placing my hand on my belly as we kissed is could feel Joshua moving around like crazy. I smiled.
Hearing the doorbell ring I stood up and accompanied by Ezra walk to the door. Emily beat me to it. It was an officer, "Can I help you officer?" she asked letting him in and leading him to the sofa where we all sat down.
"We have a new lead on Alison's murder investigation. We need Emily Fields, Aria Fitz, Hanna Marin, and Spencer Cavanah. To come down to the office. You must come, but you do not have to have the police escort. " he informed s glancing at mine and Hanna's big bellies which are going to pop any day now if they get any bigger.
The girls and I drove to the station and insisted that the boys stay home. They complained but it just was not a fight that they could win. So we got over there and took a seat and waited for them to take us where ever we needed to go. The same man that came to the house came to get us and took us back to a conference room. "It turns out that we were wrong. Alison is not dead she is here, very much alive. She won't talk though, all she will say is that she wants to see the four of you." he informed us. I guess this is what A meant about if we were good!
My heart sunk and Joshua started to move like crazy, "She's… alive? How? You found her body." we all said very confused- happy that our best friend is alive but very confused.
"Earlier today we found her wondering around town, so we picked her up and took her to the hospital. She is indeed Alison. She is healthy, they gave her an IV with some vitamins and they said she was free to go. We brought her back here to question her, but I quote- this is all she'll say. 'I want Emily, Hanna, Aria, and Spencer. You know who I'm talking about. Go. Get. Them.' So that is when we came to get you." he informed us watching closely at our reactions- which were normal he observed.
My face white as a ghost, and my stomach doing back flips I grabbed Emily and Hanna's hands for support, "Well, where is she? I want to see her." I said. He had to do a double take, "BEFORE I go into labor please!" I said and he ran out the door.
They all looked at me with their eyebrows raised, but before they got the chance to say anything he brought in Alison. "Ali! Oh we've missed you so much! Where were you?" we all asked her getting up and giving her hugs.
She hugged us back. She was skinnier than I remember and looked like she needed a good nights rest, but other than that she looked good. She wore sweats and a t-shirt, most likely from the station. "I've miss you guys too! I was kidnapped. My captors put me in an attic. They took pretty good care of me, unless they were hunting for information. I'm so sorry girls but I had to tell them everything I knew." she sobbed not letting go of us.
We rubbed her back, "It's alright. We're all alright. You didn't do anything wrong." We comforted her. She is in a state that non of us have ever seen her in. It's been over three years since we've seen her, a lot has changed.
They had us sit back down, but this time Ali was in the middle. Hanna and I were next to her and Spencer next to me, Emily next to Hanna. The officer took a seat as well. "Alison, I know that this must be hard for you but we need you to answer these questions for us." he stated. She nodded her head telling him to go on. "First of all, do you know who your captors are?" he asked looking at a clip board.
She wiped tears from her eyes, "Noel Cohn and my brother. Then someone else was the one who took care of me. I never saw his face and he never told me his name but I can tell you this, he was a white male, very big, and at least six foot tall. He had a ponytail almost half the time, not very long maybe five inches." she said she was sitting here but her mind was somewhere else.
He scribbled everything onto his clip board. "Do you know where you were? How did you find your way back to Rosewood?" he asked in a series of questions that related to each other. I started to lean back, my back is killing me being in there medal chairs. Hanna looks just about how I feel. We've gotten to the point where we're either in bed or on the sofa if we're going to be sitting for long periods of time.
"No I don't know where I was. When they captured me they blind folded me. Then I didn't find my way back, they decided that they had had enough of me so they drove me to the city limits- blind folded and let me off saying that we were never going to see each other again. And I guess you're wondering about the body. That night I remember seeing a girl that looked exactly like me, and I watched them kill her. Then they took a pint of blood from me and put it in her." she informed them her face was pitch white but from the way she was talking she was starting to become herself again.
He write that down. "Alright I'm sure that you want to catch up with your friends and get some proper sleep, so I'm going to let you go for the day but I want you back here at one-thirty tomorrow afternoon. Does that sound alright?" he asked looking at all of us, and when he said you to Ali, he meant all of us.
We drove home with Alison right there with us. Who would have thought… "Alright guys you're going to have to tell me what happened these past few years, cause I've done almost literally nothing." she stated looking at both mine and Hanna's big belly's.
I smiled, "Well, very late last year I got married. Then in just a short time later I learned that I'm having a baby. Now there are a lot of things that I need to tell you about with my baby, and some stories to go with it- but I think Hanna need's to tell the main one." I said looking at her.
"Well, about as soon as I turned eighteen I got married, and we- well he decided that we were never going to have kids. Well I got pregnant, he got abusive. To both me and Aria. He put us in the hospital- we got a divorce. My baby is just fine, but well… Aria needs to tell you." she said telling as little of the story as possible so she didn't upset Ali.
Alison looked at me with a wondering look in her eyes. I took a deep breath, "Because of what happened, my baby- Joshua, is going to be born without legs. But he is going to be able to get down to his knees though. We're going to have to wait to see if he is going to have any syndromes though." I informed her rubbing my bell the entire time.
She got a broken look on her face, "Oh, Aria I am so sorry! That's horrible. When are the two of you due?" she asked us trying to get onto a happier note.
Hanna smiled, "I am due three weeks from the day before yesterday and Aria is due exactly three weeks from today." she said proudly with a hand on her belly and a hand holding Alison's. I was too holding Ali's hand.
We got to the house. Ezra and Toby were waiting for us outside. Ali's eyes nearly bulged out of her head, "Which one of you married Toby?" she asked in total shock I don't blame her for being shocked, especially with their history.
Spencer slid down in her seat, "Guilty. But remember people change. Toby is one of the sweetest nicest guys that you will ever meet." she said taking off her seat belt and giving Ali the you-better-be-nice-to-him stare.
She nodded her head. Then she looked at me, "So the other guy is your husband? Good choice he's hot." she said looking him up and down.
"His name is Ezra, Ezra Fitz. He too is really sweet. Now Ali, I think that you should be the last one to get out of the car- give them a surprise." I stated opening my door.
We all got out me leaving my door open and walking to Ezra with a happy look on my face and I gave him a kiss. "What did the police want?" he asked me giving me the best of a hug that he could with my huge belly.
Toby asked Spencer the same question. We all looked to the car and there Alison got out. "Alison isn't really dead." the four of us stated together.
Their eyes were wide as eyes could possibly get and them some! "Hey, I'm Alison." she said looking at Ezra and putting out her hand. He shook it not totally sure how to handle this situation.
She them looked to Toby, "Look, I'm sorry about how I used to treat you. I was wrong, and honestly a mean person back them. I am truly sorry." she said giving Toby a full out hug, he was too not sure how to handle the situation.
He smiled at her, "You're forgiven, that's the past and that is where it's going to stay. That's something I learned a long time ago." he stated as we walked inside.
