Chapter 64 – Got to be real

(Spencer's narrative)

Some wars are never over because there are terrains where we advance, retreat, try to remove all the land and just when you think you've won the battle, made the world safe again, along comes another land mind and all the previews wars are nothing compared to the most frightening of them all: The one we have yet to fight…

(In the middle of the forest)

*** Music background: What would you say to the dark by Becky Shaheen***

Five liars digging in the middle of nowhere…

Emily sobs. – "I can't do this… I mean, how can we bury him… there has to be another way…"

Spencer. – "Emily, we've been over this…"

Emily. – "I know and I still don't know why we can't go to the police?!"

Spencer. – "Wren almost abducted Toby and hurt Blair, I'm pretty sure that he was behind the intent of abduction of your boys too, he might be AD and we looked for him on our own and our car didn't stop in time…"

Hanna. – "And please Spence, illuminate me, why it didn't stop in time?! I mean it's not like you don't know the right pedal from the left?!"

Spencer rolls her eyes

Alison tries to calm down the tension. – "Everyone just takes a breath… freaking out is not gonna help any of us and Spencer is right… no one's gonna believe us when we have every reason in the world to have wanted him dead, especially if he is AD…"

Aria. – "Do we really believe he's AD?"

Alison hesitates. – "I would like to think that he's and be able to say now that nightmare it's over but right now, I'm not sure of anything…"

(Silence as the girls are lost on their own thoughts)

Spencer. – "Look, let's not overthink this, all we need to do is cover our tracks…"

Aria. – "Yeah, is that all?"

Spencer. – "YES! We should be good at it by now… we've had a lot of practice…"

Hanna. – "What are we gonna do about the car?!"

The girls were discussing about what do to about the car, Alison turns her head in direction of the supposed body and a shocked look appears on her face, her wife notices it…

Emily. – "Ali... what's wrong?!"

Alison says with a shaky voice. – "He… He… he moved his hand…"

The girls. – "What?!"

Alison stares at the dirty body of Wren and memories of the past fill her mind, memories when she was in a similar situation, being buried alive… feeling the dirt in her body and enable to do something about it… all those memories came back with a lot of pain and without asking permission, the blonde followed her instinct, her conviction and started to take off the dirt of the body…

Hanna. – "Ali… what are you doing?! He's dead… he's not moving…"

Alison snaps. – "I'm not crazy! I know what I saw and I'm not burying a person who's alive… even if he's AD…"

Spencer. – "Ali!"

Alison squints her eyes. – "Don't try to stop me, Spencer!"

Aria. – "So what are you planning to do?! Because unbury him and bringing him to a hospital is even worse than go to the police, I'm just saying!"

Life it's the most fragile, unstable, unpredictable thing there is. In fact, there's only one thing in life we can be sure of… it ain't over till its over…

The next day, at the Rosewood hospital…

Blair slowly opens her eyes, she rolls her blurry eyes over the room and she fixes her look on the brunette that's sitting next to her bed, with the look settle far away…

Blair smirks. – "I'm the one who almost died and why I think that you luck worse than me…"

Spencer's mind was absent of her body until she heard the voice of Blair.

Spencer with tears. – "You're awake!" (She rushes and hugs Blair) "Don't scare me like that!" (Tears and sobs) "You can't scare me like that never again!" (Crying) "I thought that I lost you! I thought that I would never see you again!" (Crying)

Blair gulps; she has never seen Spencer so broken, so vulnerable…

Blair doesn't know what to say besides. – "I… I'm sorry…"

Spencer snuggles with Blair; they don't share a word until Spencer calms down…

Blair mumbles with blushes. – "Why you're crying so much…?"

Spencer mumbles with sobs. – "I… I don't know…"

(Awkward silence)

Blair looks at Spencer's face and says. – "You look like shit…"

Spencer looks at Blair and smirks. – "You don't look good too…"

Blair. – "I almost died… I'm pretty sure that I'm very low on blood so… I'm allowed to look bad, what's your excuse?"

Spencer avoids eye-contact and she just looks down, rubbing her cheek against Blair's chest and she says. – "I don't want to talk about it…" (She feels her eyes tired and says with a sleeping voice) "I don't want to talk… I just want to sleep…"

Blair chuckles. – "Fine… call a taxi; you can't drive like this…"

Spencer snuggles more and says. – "No… I'm sleeping here…"

Blair's eyes got bigger of surprise, she wasn't sure what was happening in Spencer's mind but looking at the sleepy face of the brunette, Blair couldn't say no. Spencer falls asleep and Blair just watches over her…

Blair mumbles as she's looking at Spencer. – "Why are you acting like this? Why you're snuggling here with me?" (She brushes Spencer's hair from her face and sighs, realizing that her heart is pounding for the closeness) "Damn it…" (She kisses Spencer's head and she blushes) "When I started feeling like this for you…?"

(Blair's narrative)

Just when we think we've figured things out, the universe throws us a curveball. So we have to improvise. We find happiness in unexpected places. We find our way back to the things that matter the most. The universe is funny that way. Sometimes it just has a way of making sure we wind up exactly where we belong.

(In the DiLaurentis-Fields house)

Emily was walking in circles, very nervous, as soon as her wife stepped through the door, she hugged the blonde as if there was no tomorrow… Alison hugs tight Emily, trying to calm down the trembling of Emily.

Emily says under the hug. – "Why you didn't let me go with you?"

Alison. – "You're safer here…"

(Kiss and they stares at each other into the eyes)

Emily. – "Is he… is he…?"

Alison sighs. – "Yeah… barely…" (She walks inside the house and sits in the sofa)

Emily. – "If we get arrested, what's gonna happen to the boys?"

Alison. – "Don't think about that… not yet…"

Emily panicks. – "Ali! Dead or alive, we rolled him over! OMG! They're gonna take our boys away from us…"

Alison. – "Em, calm down ok! We won't let that happen!"

Emily says as she sits beside her wife. – "We're not gonna be able to stop it…"

Alison hugs Emily and she says. – "Em, I didn't come all this way to lose everything now…" (She puts her hand on Emily's chin and Emily looks up and they stare at each other when Alison says) "I promise you, no one will hurt us… I will not let them…"

Emily kisses Alison and they leant their front-head together…

Emily. – "So, what now…?"

Alison. – "I'm keeping Wren at my Aunt Carol's house… the doctor is with him right now so… let's see how that goes for now…" (She notices the worried face of Emily and says) "Em, don't worry ok, the doctor will not say a word…"

Emily. – "How can you be so sure about that? And how do you know him?"

Alison. – "From my days on the run, more than once, I needed medical care without a trace… it was Noel who introduces me with him, believe, he's the kind of doctor who just does his job and gets payed without making questions of the circumstances…"

(Awkward silence)

Emily. – "Do… do you think that Wren will make it?"

Alison sighs. – "I don't know… I hope so… we need to clarify if he's AD of if he's just working for AD, keeping him alive it's our best way to find out the truth…"

(Awkward silence)

Emily mumbles. – "Ali… I'm…"

Alison squeezes Emily's hands and says. – "I know… me too…" (She brushes the hair from Emily's face and she smiles looking at the chocolate eyes of the brunette) "We're scared Em, but we can't freeze because of it… we need to keep it together and stay together on this, no matter what…"

Emily nods and she just leans for another kiss and Alison happily kisses her without stop…

Some days after…

(At Rosewood Hospital)

Spencer was with a smile on her face until she arrived at her destination and notices someone else…

Sabrina smiles. – "Hi, Spencer…"

Spencer forces a smile and says. – "Hello, Sabrina…"

Blair raises an eye brow when she notices the forced smile of Spencer…

Sabrina. – "Well, I need to go, my shift at the Brey will start in an hour…"

Sabrina gives Blair a hug and Spencer rolls her eyes and crosses her arms…

Sabrina. – "I hope you feel better and thank you for being honest with me…"

Blair smiles. – "Don't thank me… I'm sorry if I…"

Sabrina shakes her head. – "No… it's ok… somethings are not mean to be…"

The blonde leaves and Blair chuckles as she's staring at Spencer who looks very confused for what she just heard…

*** Music background: Issues by Julia Michaels ***

Spencer. – "Why she said that to you? What it's so funny?"

Blair continues chuckling without replying…

Spencer sits on Blair's bed and says. – "Stop chuckling and just tell me!"

Blair chuckles. – "You look jealous…"

Spencer blushes and avoids eye-contact. – "I DO NOT!" (She huffs) "You wish…"

Spencer was biting her lips, nailing her nails on her arms as she was trying to control her emotions…

Blair. – "I broke up with Sabrina…"

Spencer turns her head and says. – "What?! Why?!"

Blair looks up at the ceiling and says with a smile. – "Because I just realized that I'm deeply in love with someone else…" (Chuckles and blushes)

Spencer. – "Really… who?! Let me guess… another blonde…"

Blair. – "Why you think she's blonde?"

Spencer. – "Why?! Because you just fall for blondes?! 1st Ali, then Sabrina and who knows how many blondes more…"

Blair laughs and Spencer playfully hits her…

Blair pouts. – "Hey! I'm hurt and you hit me?!"

Spencer. – "Don't be a baby, it wasn't so hard…"

Blair chuckles

Spencer. – "But really… who is this 'blonde'…?"

Blair. – "1st of all… she's not blonde..."

Spencer. – "Oh, really? Who…?"

(Knock, knock)

Both girls turn their faces towards the door…

Spencer smiles. – "Toby… already with the uniform?"

Toby chuckles. – "Yeah, duty calls…"

Blair. – "So good to see you fine…"

Toby. – "Thanks, it's big part thanks to you… I don't know how…"

Blair. – "No need to thank me… hmmm… do you have any news about the hoodie who tried to abduct you?"

Spencer got stiff and Blair and Toby noticed it…

Toby. – "Hmmm… well, we're looking for Wren, he was staying at the lost woods Resort but it looks that he just vanished…"

Spencer rubs her neck

Toby. – "Any way, I came to thank you for helping me and to tell you that we will put a cop at your door, just in case if he shows up…"

Blair. – "I don't think that's nece-…"

Spencer cuts her out and says. – "Thanks, Toby, we appreciate it…"

Toby nods and leaves, Spencer follows him with her eyes and Blair notices it…

Spencer turns her head in direction of Blair and says. – "So, you didn't tell me who is the lucky girl…"

Blair sighs and she looks down

Spencer. – "Are you not telling me? I thought that we were friends?"

Blair. – "We're but…"

Spencer. – "But…?"

Blair takes a deep breath and then she looks up and locks her look on Spencer as she says. – "I know that there are going to be a lot of hardships… that she has her issues but I got'm too… and also, I don't stand a chance against someone like him…" (Bitter chuckles) "I'm obviously going to lose but…" (She says with determination) "I think it's wrong to step down before it's clear who the winner of her heart is…"

Spencer smirks. – "You're talking about this girl, as if she was a prize to get…"

Blair smiles. – "She is…" (She gazes at Spencer as she grins) "She's the most beautiful prize that I could ever dream to get and I promise to adore her for the rest of my life, even if she doesn't choose me…"

Spencer blushes with all the constant gaze and Blair chuckles looking at the red cheeks of Spencer…

Looks like B is determined to have it all. The question is, who with?

(In a dance class)

Erza and Aria were dancing but Erza notices the worried look of Aria…

Erza. – "It's everything ok?"

Aria. – "Huh? Oh, Yeah…"

Erza. – "Did I step on you?"

Aria. – "No, it's not that…"

The professor announces the end of the class and Erza leaves Aria alone for a moment as he receives a call. Aria was taking off her shoes to dance when her phone starts to ring…

Aria takes the video call and shakes her head as she says. – "No, no, no, Wren it's…!"

AD was using a mask and says. – "Did you really believe that Wren could be the master mind behind this game? Please…"

Aria. – "I don't care if Wren wasn't AD; I'm done with you…"

AD. – "This is not done until I say so…"

Aria gulps. – "I will not hurt my friends…"

AD smirks. – "You'll do as your told…" (Devious smirks) "Don't forget that Erza's just a document away from going to prison…"

Aria gulps and she just stares at the file that AD has in its hands…

They say a leopard can't change his spots but some things do change… Isn't that right Aria? Careful, Ar, the path that you're planning to take leads to a deeply fall… wondering if you will be able to sleep at night with the consequences of your actions…

(In the DiLaurentis-Fields house)

Emily and Alison were on bed, they were making a video call with their Family who was staying in Texas…

Emily smiles with tears. – "OMG, they look so big…"

Alison smiles. – "Yeah, our boys are getting so tall…"

Enzo babbles. – "Mommy! Mamma! I miss you!" (Sad pout)

Oliver and Wayne. – "We miss you mommies!" (Sad pout)

It was heart breaking to see the pout of their boys…

Alison says with a heart wrenching voice. – "I know… we miss you too…" (Tears as she maps their faces on the screen of the laptop) "So, so, so much…"

They continue talking for a while, with the Fields and then with Jason until it's very late. Emily closes the laptop and she hugs Alison when she notices that the blonde breaks in tears…

Emily. – "Ali, please don't cry… it breaks my heart to see you like this…"

Alison. – "I can't help it, Em, I want my family together, I want to hug my boys, to read them a bed story… I…" (Crying)

Emily kisses Alison's head and says as she put the blonde on her arms. – "I know… I know… me too, I want to be able to be with them but they are safer out there with my parents and Jason…"

Alison. – "I know…" (Sobs) "I know but it still hurts…"

The blonde clears her tears and then she happily smiles when she feels the lips of her wife on her…

Alison smiles. – "You always know how to make me feel better…"

Emily smiles. – "Well, it's my job to put a smile on your face…"

Alison smiles and she leans for a kiss, they shares sweet lovely kisses under they feel better….

Alison caresses Emily's face and says. – "I love you, so much…"

Emily blushes and smiles. – "I love you too…"

(Kisses)

Alison. – "Em…"

Emily. – "Yeah…?"

Alison. – "Let's have more babies…"

Emily looks surprised. – "What? Now?! I know that we talked about it but…"

Alison chuckles. – "Well, not right now but after all this nightmare; let's try to add some girls to the family…"

Emily smiles, just picturing little blondes running around her…

Emily. – "Do you really think that we will make it? I mean… that we will be ok…?"

Alison nods. – "Yeah, the doctor told me that Wren is looking better, he will be conscious again and we will be able to know who this AD is and we will finish him once and for all…" (She caresses Emily's cheeks) "We will win this game, Em…"

Emily hesitates. – "Maybe Wren was AD… we haven't heard anything since he's unconscious…"

Alison. – "That's a probability but let's not assume anything, not until have some proofs…"

Emily. – "Do you really think that he will confess to be AD? That he will just tell us that he's being torturing us, blaming us of Melissa's death?! And what about the fact that we rolled him over?! He could…"

Alison cuts her out. – "He will not do anything against us, we will make sure of it…"

Emily. – "Ali…"

Alison cups Emily's cheeks and says as she looks at her into the eyes. – "Em, do you trust me?"

Emily nods. – "You know, I do…"

Alison. – "So, trust me, love, I told that I will not let anything bad happening to you, to our boys, to our friends… I will protect you… all of you… with my life… I promise…"

Emily smiles and she kisses Alison with so much love that before knowing, both girls were already naked, making love to each other as if there was no tomorrow…

Whenever we give up something we really care about, we hope that the Universe will reward our selfless choice. However, life is full of surprises and whoever said you can't have it all must have known these liars. True love, betrayal and a cruel fate… in the battle between good and evil, looks like someone could end up the next saintly sacrifice; so watch your back, girls because your enemies are out for blood and one of you will lose her heart…
