A/N: I really loved how playful CeCe was and so I've tried to incorporate that into her character, i hope you like it :)

*Emily POV*

'Listen Emily, I can explain?' She said, walking over to the lounge area so she could place my tea on the coffee table.

'Is this some kind of joke? Playing your A game again?' I said, slamming it down on the table but with it being paper it flew onto the floor.

'Don't be so dramatic Emily. I told you I'm better now' she said, sitting on the chair.

'Well this all seems like another one of your twisted games'

'I did it because you love her.'

'W-what?' Okay now she's got my attention. I know she knew I used to have a crush on Ali but that's it.

'Like I said Americano, I knew you had a big crush on Ali but when she came to me when I found out she was alive all she would talk about was you. She didn't specifically say you, she kept referring to you as mermaid but, I figured it out. Whenever she talked about you her face would light up, her eyes would glisten. When I put you in that box, in Ravenswood, I've never seen her so scared. Scared she would lose you. I know I put you in there and as much as I love you, the reason I helped Ali get you out was because of her. That's when I knew deep down she really did love you. And don't think I didn't know about your little make out session. And then you accused her of being A.' She said, her eyes narrowing at me. It look down at the floor, the guilt and shame washing over me once more. 'God I was so angry with you. Out of everyone, you were the one who was supposed to be there for my sister when I wasn't. When I turned up at the ice ball she looked broken. Having to watch you all there, spying on her so you could gather evidence. Having to watch you slow dance with Paige. God I thought I would have got rid of her sooner but damn that bitch is stubborn. I had to get her away so you and Ali could be together but no you still all screwed it up by handing her over to the police.'

I didn't even realise that I had tears forming in my eyes until one splashed onto my hand. 'I'm sorry okay, I know what we did was bad but none of that would have happened if you didn't pretend to kill her.' I was now angry, it's okay making me feel guilty but if she wasn't A none of this would of happened.

'You planted her hair at the crime scene to set her up! Don't blame this on me. It's good that we are getting our feelings out but can we just get to the point. I was in charge of sending all the invites out and I didn't send yours because I couldn't stand the thought of you finding out she's getting married. I knew if you found out there is no way you would willingly come back to Rosewood so I didn't send it. I know Ali still loves you, she has a group photo of you all on her bedside table and I'm pretty sure she kissed your face every night, hoping you would come back to Rosewood. I'm not entirely sure why she wanted you to go to the wedding if I'm honest. A part of me did think it would make her stop the wedding, realise she was making a mistake but I knew you wouldn't come and I knew you'd be heart broken. Believe it or not but I love you, and I love my sister and I can see how much you love each other. I just couldn't bare the thought of seeing you heart broken, not after all I've put you through.' She said, smiling slightly as she finished her sentence.

'Does Ali know you kept it?'

She shook her head, 'No, I thought maybe you could tell her. Maybe that way at least it will get you talking and you could apologize for telling her she was uninvited to your house the other day'

'You know about that?' As much as she says she's finished her games, she sure as hell isn't acting like she has.

'Ali and I really are sisters. We tell each other everything.' She smiled, I could see her eyes glisten at the thought of her and Ali finally being actual sisters. I know deep down that she really does love Ali.

'Well, I erm, should get going' I say, placing my empty mug on the coffee table.

'Yeah of course, I don't want you to think I'm kidnapping you' she said, smirking playfully. 'Too soon?'

'Yes.' I reply simply. This is the first time I've seen her since that night and she's already cracking jokes about it. I mean I get she's trying to be funny but seriously that's just too far.

'Well I hope you come back to see me again, or I see you around. Luckily I'm aloud out of this place. Not trapped in for years like I was at Radley.' I could see a flicker of sadness cross her eyes at the memory. It must have been awful, locked in that place practically her whole life. A wave of sympathy washes over me and I smile.

'Yeah of course, believe it or not I liked you to back in the day it would be nice to have that back.' I say, causing her to smile widely. As we reach the door she pulls me into a hug.

'Thank you Emily.' She smiles, waving from the door as I walk towards the lift. As I head through the hospital towards the exit, I see a flash of golden hair and I instantly take a few steps back to take a closer look. I could only see the back of her head but I knew straight away it was Ali. Her hair was hanging in loose curls down her back. She was wearing a light blue floral tea dress with a light blue denim jacket, it's fair to say she looked stunning. But as my eyes moved over her body my eyes instantly locked on her left hand, the diamond of her ring glistening in the light. But her hand moved and as I followed it I could see it land on someone's face. I focus my eyes back onto her whole body to see her in the arms of her husband. He was a little taller than her so he bent down slightly to place a kiss on her lips, he obviously said something because her head fell back with laughter. That was something that distinctly Ali did when she actually did find something funny. I found this out back when they were 14 as Ali only really did it around Hanna, the only person who was actually funny. Luckily for me, I could sit and admire her when she was doing it but stood here now watching her felt completely wrong. I could see by Ali's posture that she was about to leave so I quickly made my way to the exit, not wanting her to see me. As I got outside I instantly kicked a trash can over, not caring if all the litter fell out. I was so stupid. Stupid for even thinking that Ali wouldn't invite me, stupid for not talking to her, stupid for accusing her of being A, stupid for not being there when she needed me and so fucking stupid for not telling her how I feel. As much as I hate Adam fucking Rollins for marrying the love of my life, I only have myself to blame. Fuck. What if Ali actually loves him though? Then I remembered the texts that she sent me, saying that I should ring her back and I completely ignored her. God I bet she thinks I'm mad at her still for something she didn't even do. Oh god this whole thing is such a mess. My whole fucking life is currently a mess.

I now just needed to come up with a way to apologize and talk to her.

A/N: Next chapter definitely has Ali in it ;) Please leave a review, i love knowing what you all think :)
