Hi guys, so this is a mini story, still not sure how many chapters but no more than 5.
Context: Season 7, the girls find out that Alison got pregnant with Emily's eggs. But, in here, Paige decides to stay for Emily…
Go Big or Go Home – part I
*** Alison's narrative ***
I'm going to tell you a secret… magic doesn't exist… fairy tales are no real… we like to think we can have it all, but we can't… we will not… and, no matter how much you want it, reality will reach you and then, you just give it up… you give up on love…
The blonde has completely zoned out. She was so calm, sleeping in her sofa and then, her peace just got interrupted when she looked up and saw Paige's face; the blonde wasn't sure of what was coming up till she looked around and, there she was… Emily… Emily and Paige inside her house, together…
'We knocked, it was open', that's what Paige said and, Alison couldn't care less since the only she can focus right now, it's on seeing Paige and Emily holding hands. Alison stares at their hands, she stares at the girls, at the couple and with a sad sigh, she realizes what this means…
Emily. – "Ali…"
The brunette starts talking but, honestly Alison has completely zoned out…
Paige. – "Alison, are you hearing what we're saying…?"
Alison gets out of her trance and says. – "Huh? Oh… ah… yeah… I… I… I'll think about it…"
Emily. – "You'll think about it?!" (She says a little angry) "What kind of an answer is that?!"
If getting this unexpected and unpleasant visit wasn't enough, Emily rising her voice was just the cherry on the top…
Alison snaps. – "Look EMILY! This is my body, I didn't ask for this, I got pregnant with your eggs against my will, so yeah! Like I told you last night! I'll think about it, I'm still thinking about it, so back off!"
Emily pleads. – "Ali, please, I want to rise this baby…" (She holds Paige's hand and says) "We want to rise this baby… you don't have to worry about anything, I'm not asking you to be part of his life… you have to do nothing else besides giving birth…"
The brunette says those words, thinking it would make Alison feel better but, her harsh words had the opposite effect on the blonde and, Emily notices it when those blue eyes burst in tears…
Emily gulps hard. – "Ali…?"
The brunette sees pain in Alison's eyes, so much pain and, her 1st impulse is to rush towards Alison and hug her, comfort her but, she hesitates, she's not sure if she should approach and sadly she loses her chance to do something when the blonde says angry…
Alison yells angry. – "Get out! GET OUT!"
The blonde pushes both girls outside her house and when the door closes, she falls apart on the floor… tears fall from her blue eyes because it hurts… it really hurts that Emily wasn't considering Alison's feelings, the brunette wasn't considering the possibility of letting Alison be part of the baby's life and that, that broke, even more, Alison's heart…
(In the Brew, the next day)
Thinking she would find comfort on 'those' she calls her friends, Alison tells the girls, everything that happened last night…
Alison says angry. – "WHO the HELL she thinks I'M?! HUH?! I'm not a fucking laying hen!" (She runs a hand through her hair and says with a bitter voice) "She can't just expect me to go with it, it's like she wants me to be her surrogate mother…"
The blonde keeps talking and talking; talking about it, it felt good till she realizes that she was talking alone, the other girls have saying nothing and looking at the girls, Alison was far to receive any comfort from them…
Alison mumbles. – "You're not saying anything…?!"
The girls look at each other in silence and, Alison finally gets it… they're on Emily's side…
Spencer. – "This is an awful situation, but if Emily wants the baby, she has the right to keep it…"
Hanna. – "Yeah… and, you kind of owe her that…"
Alison. – "WHAT?!"
Hanna. – "Look, if it wasn't because of you! We wouldn't be in this fucking situation! We were fine, living our lives till you asked us to come… I killed someone because of YOU!"
Aria. – "Hann… don't say it so loud, someone could hear you!"
The three girls start talking between each other and, that's it, Alison finally gets it, Alison finally realizes she will always be the outsider of the group, the one to blame, the evil in their lives; and realizing she's completely alone, tears, once again, rolls over her cheeks. The girls realize how badly their words hurt the blonde but, before they could apologize, their Ex Queen Bee was already gone…
(In Rosewood school)
Sitting alone on the teachers room, Alison was looking sadder than ever. Her puffy eyes were tired for so much crying, but even then, tears were keep coming without stop. She hears noises of people coming in and, she quickly clears her tears and settles her gaze to the window, trying to avoid any eye-contact with whoever was coming in.
Emily and Paige came inside and when Emily sees the blonde who's standing there with red eyes; Emily feels once again the impulse to approach and hug the blonde, to hold her tight and let her know that everything will be okay but, before she can do anything, all the teacher come in and, once again, she loses her chance to do what her heart was telling her to do…
Alison was with her gaze settled far away when all the teachers came in. By the corner of her eyes, she sees Emily and Paige together and she just groans rolling her eyes, disgusted, angry but, mostly hurt. She can't handle this situation right now, she can't handle her emotions right now and, she tries to run away like she always does it but, the principal stops her when he says…
Principal. – "Ms. Rollins please stay, you need to hear this…" (He looks at all the teachers and says) "Ok, so, I'm glad you're all here, I would like to tell you something…" (He clears his throat) "Well, I would like to introduce you our new counselor…"
A blonde girl appears behind the principal and someone recognizes her very well…
Emily. – "Samara?"
Samara smiles. – "Emily?! What a surprise!"
Feeling jealous, Paige holds tighter Emily's hand and, Alison just rolls her eyes and huffs…
Alison. – "Great… another EX…"
Principal. – "Ms. Rollins, did you say something?"
Alison says while she walks towards the door. – "Nothing… and please call me Miss. DiLaurentis…"
Principal gasps while he sees the blonde leaving. – "Miss DiLaurentis, you can't leave! I haven't finished…"
The blonde keeps walking, without caring that the Principal was still talking, she's pissed off, and everyone noticed it…
*** Alison's narrative ***
So delicate it's the human heart… so delicate and fragile. You try to protect it, putting walls around it, putting signs and warnings which say: 'don't get closer!'… you avoid feelings… emotions… attachments but, no matter how much you try…. The heart doesn't get it, the heart doesn't listen to reasons, it just follows its own will... It just falls in love...
Someone knocks the door of her classroom and, Alison looks up. The blonde raises an eyebrow because she doesn't understand why this person is here looking for her...
Samara. - "Hi..."
Before the new counselor could say something, Alison nasty says...
Alison. - "If you're looking for Emily, she's not here..."
The ex Queen Bee is in a really bad mood, Samara can see it too but, even then, she doesn't turn around, she steps forwards...
Samara. - "I'm not looking for Emily, I'm here to see you…"
Alison. - "Me?! Why?!"
Samara says while she walks toward the blonde who's grading papers in her desk...
Samara. - "Well, this morning, when the principal was welcoming me and introducing me with all of you, you gave me the impression that you weren't happy with the news, maybe my presence makes you angry and, I would like to know why..."
Alison rolls her eyes and, settles her look once again towards the exams she was reviewing. Samara gets comfortable sitting on the desk, beside Alison and, realizing that samara will not just go away, the blonde English teacher says...
Alison. - " My bad mood has nothing to do with you..."
Samara nods. - "OK... Glad to hear that…"
Alison keeps grading but, she stops when she notices that the other girl is still there...
Alison looks up at her and, says angry. - "Do you need something else?!
One of the reason she became a high school counselor, it's because she has this intuition to see when people need help, helping others has always brought happiness to her life and, looking at Alison, looking at her puffy sad eyes, Samara sees so much sorrow and loneliness in those blue eyes that, she feels the urge to somehow help Alison...
Samara. - "You're in pain..."
Alison looks down at the papers she was grading and resumes her work, completely ignoring the other blonde. Alison DiLaurentis doesn't admit when she's hurt, Alison DiLaurentis doesn't talk about feelings with ANYONE! Alison DiLaurentis doesn't open up… the English teacher keep thinking about how she's and decides to ignore Samara; Alison thinks that her silence treatment will force Samara to turn around and, walk away but, the blonde counselor stays, and that... that particular aspect of Samara, it's what will make all the difference...
*** Emily's narrative ***
So delicate it's the human heart… so delicate and fragile. You try to protect it, you try to follow the signs, the warnings, you avoid getting hurt… but... how long can you ignore your heart?
Waving the spoon inside her coffee in what's her new office, Emily ignores how long she has been there, just spacing out. The brunette should feel happy; she had Paige, she had a job… between all the chaotic situation of AD, life was good with Emily; so, why she wasn't happy? Emily asks herself that question as she settles her gaze far away, trying to figure out what is really happening with her, the brunette realizes she's feeling uneasy because of one only person... Alison.
Feeling compelled to look for Alison and, check on her, Emily asks Paige to take care of her class of the 2d period. Without asking why, Paige agrees and, Emily walks through the hallways of the school, she walks in direction of the English classroom and, with each step she makes, her heart feels more uneasy than ever…
Emily is determined to talk with Alison, to really talk with the blonde and figure out what they want, what Alison wants... Emily is getting closer to Alison's classroom and, Emily smiles when she notices the door is open; she slowly steps forwards but, she freezes on the door frame when she sees something…
Samara says while hugging Alison. – "It's okay… it's gonna be okay…"
Alison sobs and grips hard on Samara with despair. And looking at this scene, looking at the broken blonde, looking at Samara comforting Alison… something cracks inside Emily's heart…
*** Emily's narrative ***
So, how long can you ignore your heart? How long can you burry your own feelings, your own desires? How long it takes you to figure out what you really want… your true desire... your true love...? How long?
