Emison one shot - College

Hi guys I've decided to post this next one shot in two parts as it's slightly longer than most. hope you enjoy - xo steph

prompt- Alison and Emily get into a fight about college, they have been dating for a month now, and with the Charles/ kidnapping situation over the girls prepare to head back to school, where Alison finds out that she doesn't have enough credits to graduate, while Emily, Hanna, spencer, Mona and Aria do. Ali doesn't know how to break the news to Emily, but when she does, Emily tell's Ali that college can wait. That she will take a year off and stay in rosewood with Her until she can graduate. Ali doesn't want that, she wants Emily to go to college, and doesnt want to hold her back, making Emily think that Ali no longer wants to be together. The two of them Eventually have to talk when invited to a group sleepover, but what will happen? Will they make up? or could what they have be over even before it really started.

Emily's pov

Heading back to school for what would be my last few weeks, didn't seem as scary having Ali bye my side. It has been one month now since the five of us were kidnapped by Charles Dilaurentis, and exactly one month since Alison and I finally talked about our feelings towards each other. Since being sent to jail, Alison has become a changed person. She helped Ezra, Toby, and caleb save us form that hell hole and honestly if it were not for my favourite blonde, I wouldn't have been able to get through these past few weeks. Alison and I both talked to each other the night of our survival in my hospital room, and we admitted that we both wanted to be more than friends. Of course in the back of my mind I was scared that the old Ali was talking, that it was still a game to her, but these last few weeks have proved me wrong. Alison has barley left my side, she's there to comfort me when I need her, or wake in the middle of the night in from a flash back of being electrocuted by Charles, and without even have to ask she holds me until I fall asleep again. She was honest with us about what she knows about Charles, and by doing so that helped the girls and I figure out who this person was. The girls are finally ready to except Ali for the person she has become, not who she use to be and in return Ali is ready to let go of the hurt she was caused when we were so sure she was A. Hanna and Alison spending two weeks together in jail helped to mend their friendship in more ways then one, and Alison has even helped caleb comfort Hanna when needed. Spencer and Aria are a little distant still, but with Ezra and Toby looking after them I know they are safe. Mona and Mike reunited at the hospital and Mona's mother couldn't believe she was alive this whole time.

As for right now the six of us are heading back into Rosewood high for what will be the last month. Entering the all to familiar building, Alison had a firm grip on my hand and I realised that she too, hadn't been back since her short trip to jail. Ali and I led the pack, followed by spencer who had a slightly jumpy Aria glued to her side and Hanna and Mona who were trialling at the back. when we made it to the locker area, I stood with Ali as she collected her books for her first two class. "Crap" Ali mumbled which caught my attention. "I'm sorry Em but It looks like I have maths, and psychology first with a bunch of 10th grades", I sighed slightly nervous about having to be separated from Ali. That means you have class during my free :( "I know, I'm sorry Em I wish I didn't but one of the others girls probably has a spare right"? yeah but there not you, I feel safest when I'm with you. I pouted as I leaned into the locker next Ali, And she squeezed my hand before kissing my lips. "Hey relax I'll have my phone on me at all times, and if you really need me I can ask for a bathroom pass okay, what do you have first"? Hmm English with Han I think, "well then let's see who has a study second, that way you don't have to stress". I nodded hoping that if it wasn't Ali It would be spence.

"Hey guys I have my two classes with the tenth graders so I can't hang with Em in her spare, do one of you have 2nd period free?" Ali questioned the girls and Spencer shook her head. "nope advance chem sorry Em" "How about you Aria?" "Sorry wish I could study but My mother got my art classes moved to period 2 so I could Help with year book" "Han how about you?" " I have PE and if I skip anymore classes I'm pretty sure I'll fail". God could today get any worse, i sighed not wanting to be left alone on my first day. "Actually you won't be alone, I have a free" Mona looked between Ali and me with a smile. "We can study she'll be safe with me Ali". I could tell Ali wasn't to keen on leaving me with Mona but instead of insulting her like she use to she squeezed her shoulder. "Thanks Mona I'll see you all later yeah?" The rest of us nodded before heading our separated ways and Hanna and I hooked arms. "you ready Em?" yeah I guess.

First period went surprisingly fast, and when the bell rang I said goodbye to Han before heading towards Mona's locker. Of course on the way I caught people staring at me here and there but i tried my best to ignore it. It didn't work though as a group of guys decided to follow me. "Hey why don't you two take a picture it will last longer", the sound of Mona's voice came from behind me and for once I was glad to hear the snarky side of her being directed at someone other than me and the girls. Mona placed her hand on my lower back as an attempt to tell me she has my back. The boys however didn't seem to be scared of Mona and rolled there eyes before voicing there opinion. "Yo Emily did you ever realise that maybe if you were never friends with that slut Alison Dilaurentis none of this would have ever happen to you and your friends, Mona included. I bet you all would do anything to not have gone through what you did, but I guess that's the price you have to pay for associating with someone like her, I mean who's to say she's not the same after all Charles was a Dilaurentis right"?

"Hey watch it" Mona raised her voice. "you better shut your mouth or so help me god", Mona began to fire up her old self coming out. "Or what? you'll tell on me that's so 5th grade Mona but please go right ahead, I'm doing nothing wrong I'm just simply stating the facts. Oh and Emily I'd be careful if I were you bipolar disorder could run in her family". "That's enough leave her alone, the only person who has bipolar here is probably you, now I suggest you walk away unless you want me to ruin your bad boy creed, and believe me I will if you don't leave the two of them alone. Alison may not be the nicest human bean I've ever met, she's sure as hell made me question if she is capable of being genuine or not, but she's chanced and even I can see that now, Alison's a better person then you will ever be walk away", And with that the guy and his three mates headed down the hall before being late to class.

"Are you okay?" Mona turned around to look at me, but I was still shocked at what she had just said to say anything. What yeah, I umm... thank you... You didn't have to do that. "Relax Emily I didn't just do it for you, I did it for myself it felt good to yell at someone, and for the record don't take anything he said seriously he's just a dick who probably read the paper and wanted to get in your head. I nodded not trusting my voice and smiled. Mona than collected her book before the two of us headed into the library. It felt like ages since I had done something as normally as studying, but half an hour in I still had only written one paragraph of my French essay.

"You want to talk about it? I know I'm not Alison, or the girls but I'm a good listener". Talk about what? "Whatever it is that's bothering you". Oh it's nothing really, I just... did you mean what you said about Ali, you know when you defended us? "Oh that well yeah I guess, I think the turning point for me was when I saw the way Ali looked at you when we were all rescued. I haven't seen Alison look at someone the way she looked at you ever, and these past few weeks she's shown that she is capable of being kind. I'm no Saint Emily and neither is she, but you gotta remember that all I've ever wanted back then was to be her friend, and maybe now I can". I smiled unable to contain how happy I was that even Mona could see that Ali has changed for the better.

You know Mona I don't know if she's ever said it but Ali doesn't hate you, she actually wants to thank you for being a better friend to Hanna then she ever was. your right maybe the six of us will finally be able to get along. You and I are a lot more alike than I thought Mona, I mean you and spencer are the brains of the group, and Aria and you have mike. Hanna will always be your best friend and I understand why because she's mine two and I don't mind sharing. Mona smiled "Emily what your doing for Hanna you know the pageant thing, it's pretty special Hanna's lucky to have a friend like you we all are". I blushed, yeah well think of it this way Hanna's done more than enough for me in the past it's the lest I could do. Towards the end of our free, I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, And my smile grew ten times bigger when I saw that it was a text from Ali.

The only good thing about having two classes with 10th grades is that non of them seem to know me. They don't talk to me, and I don't talk to them. The old Alison would have hated that but it's actually nice to get away from all the drama for a while and just be myself, without having everyone staring at me for being back from the dead, sent to jail, or having a psychopath of a brother who I new nothing about. When the bell went signalling the end of psych, I dropped off my books at my locker before heading towards Hackett's office. On my way there I passed spence in the hall way. "Hey Ali where are you off to? I thought we were all sitting outside". "Oh uh Mr Hackett wants to see me, but don't worry I'll see you all at lunch yeah? "Yeah sure ok" great well Emily's meeting me there so she's with me.

Waving goodbye to spence I knocked on the door before entering. Hi Mr Hackett you wanted to see me? "oh yeah Alison come in, please take a seat". Walking In Hackett closed the door behind me. So am I like in trouble or something I mean that's why I'm usually here right? "Right, but that's not why your here" I sat down relaxing a little once I new he wasn't here to lecture me about what's right or wrong, and I watched as Mr Hackett took a seat at his desk, pulling out a file, which I presume is mine. It's smaller than most making me realise how much school I've missed. "Your here because we happen to be in a difficult situation with your grades Alison". What do you mean? I thought I was doing okay. "You are... well you were, I hate to be the one to tell you this but it doesn't look like you with be able to graduate". What? what do you mean I thought you made me take those test when I returned so I would be up to speed. "I did, but there is only so much I could do Alison with your extra time of being in jail and your recovery period, I'm afraid that you have missed to much". What... What about the others? "You mean your friends?" Yes. "Well that's a different story, spencer, and Mona are quiet the students academically there more than fine. Emily and Hanna well they have enough credit to cover them. the four of them will be a part of the graduating class in a few weeks time and so will Aria if she passes her last few tests. I'm afraid that while you have been taking 3 senior classes Alison, your just to far behind in both your junior and sophomore workload". So... so what your saying is I'll have to repeat 12th grade? "Not exactly that's up to you and your father to decide, There are other options Alison like summer school which would give you your year 11, look you can still get a year 12 pass for your French, English, and advanced literature, but that's not enough Your still around 6-12 months behind".

What... what about the senior prom? Can I... can I still go? "Alison you know the rules, I don't think that's such a good idea". Please Mr Hackett you have to let me go, I know I'm no longer a senior and only averaging a C but don't you think I deserve to celebrate with my friends, I mean I've been to hell and back these pass five years and so have they, I want them to have the night they deserve and I would really like it if I was a part of it. "Alright well I'll see what I can do and let you know" thank you, "your welcome and I'm sorry that you will not be joining you friends in a few weeks" it's fine it was bound to happen, am... Am I free to go? "Yes, oh and Alison I will be informing your dad of this discussion, I will need to know ASAP whether or not to enrol you in the next school year".

Taking a seat outside Hackett's office I sat waiting for Ali thankful that the halls were almost empty and hoping that whatever Hackett wanted wasn't to bad, but I also new that when he talks to students during the day it's normally pretty important. When I saw my blonde exit his office she started pacing the hall and clenching her fist something she does when she's stressed or angry, and I new something was wrong. Alison continued to pace the hallway and I let her let off steam before carefully approaching her. Hey Ali what happen in there are you okay? Ali jumped when I placed my hand on her back before Relaxing when she saw it was me. Reaching for my hand she smiled. "what yeah, I'm fine how long have you been sitting there? I didn't see you" About fifteen minutes and are you sure your okay? you seem tense. "I'm fine honest Em he just wanted to talk to me and make sure I was on top of all my school work, I'm a little more Behind than I thought but I'll catch up". Well maybe I can help, i mean I know I'm not spencer or Mona, but I know my stuff. Ali smirked "that sounds like a plan Em, how about we study at mine after school?" Works for me, "great and bye the way your better then spence, she makes my brain hurt when she talks to fast. I couldn't help but laugh at my girlfriends admission, as I wrapped my arm around her neck and kissing her check. come on how about we head to the roof top, not many people will be there we can see the girls at lunch. "Sure whatever you want Em lead the way".

Heading up to the roof top Ali held my hand as I lead the way, and I held the door open. Stepping outside was such a great feeling, to feel the fresh air and know I could get it when I wanted was something I needed ever since being kidnapped, and it felt good to be able to relax with Ali. Walking towards the edge of the roof, I leaned against the concrete wall taking in the surroundings of rosewood, as two small arms softly wrapped around my stomach. Placing my hands gently on top of Ali's I felt her move my hair out of the way before placing her chin on my right shoulder and allowing me to relax into her. Although Ali is shorter than me, with her heals and my converses on we were the same height and it felt good to just be held. I felt safe again like nothing could get to me.

"How was hanging with Mona she didn't ditch you did she?" Ali questioned and I smirked all though my eyes were closed. No she's didn't, it actually went really well we both kind of owe her a fe thank you's, "what why?" Well I may have run into some guys in the senior hall, that had a few opinions about what happen to all of us and I guess they wanted to remind me and make my first day back one to remember. Mona got there in time to stand up for me, actually now that I think of it, it was you she was defending I never thought I'd see the day. "Wait what do you mean? What did the say? Are you okay?" The concern in Ali's voice made me smile, it was comforting to know that she genuinely was worried. "I'm fine now thanks to Mona, they eventually stopped talking once Mona threatened to ruin their "bad boy creed" as she called it, so the left me alone. They said it was our fault all this happen, because we chose to be friends with you, but thats no true. They said none of this would have happen, and that we probably all wish we never met you. They said that I should watch out because Charles is a Dilaurentis and whatever is wrong with hime could run in the family. Ali sighed staying quiet and I turned around in her arms, my back pressed into the wall. "Their probably right you know", Ali's voice was soft and mumbled as she refused to make eye contact. Hey Ali look at me. When her blue eyes that always sparkle looked into mine, I instantly caught the sadness in them and wanted to make it go away. They were wrong okay, I don't regret even for a second becoming friends with you and I'm sure the girls all feel the same. I lifted my hands to cup Ali's cheeks. you are nothing like that freak okay don't ever think that, just because you share the same DNA doesn't mean your anything like him even Mona knows that, she and I quote said " she's changed, Ali is a better person then you will ever be" Ali's eyes widen as she listen to what she said. "Wow I guess your right I do owe her a thank you". I laughed causing Ali to smile. Mmm I love seeing you smile babe I say sweetly and I can finally see that sparkle in her eyes return. "Mmm not as much as I like seeing you blush, I love that even though where together now you still get all shy". I open my mouth pretending to be shocked, before shaking my head. I do not, I attempt to disagree and Ali laughs. "yes you do it's actually adorable, one of the many things I love about you" oh yeah and what else would that be? "Mmm thats easy, your hair, your smile, your hugs, your eyes, your body, oh and especially your lips". Ali stared intently at my lips, and I couldn't help but do the same as she leaned in and captured mine in a soft Kiss. The kiss however was then cut short by the bell.

The next two class I had with Em and i was thankful that I was excelling in them because I was sure I didn't get any work done, with Emily sitting in front of me. The classes felt like they wet Forever and when It got to lunch I was actually looking forward to seeing the girls. Emily and I headed into the cafeteria where we could already see spencer, Hanna, Mona and Aria around our table, and after getting our trays we headed over to join them, the four of them greeting us with a hello. "Hey Mona thanks, Em told me what you did". I flashed Mona a genuine smile and her face blushed almost remaining me of when she use to beg me for my attention. "Your welcome Ali" the two of us made a silent plea to start our friendship again, if thats what you could call it, and then the six of us fell into a light conversation. I was doing my best to forget about my conversation I had with Hackett, but when the girls all began to discuss prom it was hard. "So spencer are you bringing Toby?" Aria questioned. "yep it will be fun to hang out with him not in a cop uniform you know". "Yeah I bet, what about you Hanna?" "I don't know yet, I'm still waiting for caleb to ask me, he can be a little slow with things like that but he better hurry up or ask him myself. I've already picked out my dress" of course you have, the girls laughed and as much as I wanted to I couldn't. "Well Aria I hate to tell you but Mike asked me last night, and he made me an offer I couldn't refuse, besides the way he asked me was two sweet to say no" Mona smiled. Aria rolled her eyes, "okay I'm happy for you Mona but I don't even want to know, Mike doesn't strike me as the lest bit romantic". "Oh well you would defiantly be surprised" Aria screwed her face up and blocked her ears. "How about you guys? are you love birds going together?" Aria was quick to move on from Mona, and my heart skipped a beat. Looking at Emily for help all eyes were on us, and we both answered at the same time even though we hadn't even discussed prom yet. When Emily said "yeah I think so" and I said no, everyone's eyes turned to me for an explanation. I mean I don't think so, I don't really want to go. "What?" Hanna questioned and I sighed. I did want to go but with Hackett not sure if I was aloud, I didn't want to promise Emily just yet. "What do you mean you don't want to go? You have to go Ali it's senior prom" I don't have to do anything Han! I snapped standing up, I just don't want to go ok, Hanna nodded taking a set again and remained quiet. I instantly regretted snapping at her and sighed. "well then who is Emily going to go with?" I rolled my eyes at the fact that spencer was game enough to ask that question. Look I don't know okay I'm sure there are a tun of people who would die to go with Emily, she'll be fine now if you will excuse me I need to see our English teacher before class. I took off out of the cafeteria as quick as I could wanting to be alone before saying something else I'd regret, I could barley look at Em's face the minute after she said yeh, because I new if I did she would just look hurt. Making my way as far away as possible from the cafeteria, I was pretty sure someone was following me but I didn't turn around. Walking into the closest bathroom, I locked myself in one of the toilets closing the lid and taking a seat, as I attempted to control my breath only now realising I was just seconds from crying, and before I could stop myself a few tears left my eyes and I closed them letting a few tears silent Fall, only sniffing quietly as I brushed them away.

when I heard a faint knock on the door and her soft voice I gave a week smile. "Ali open up I know your in there are you okay? Please come out and talk it's just me we... We don't even have to talk if you don't want to". I sighed wiping the mascara that was probably still on my face with the back of my hand, taking in a deep breath and putting on my famous Ali D smile. Unlocking the door I was met with a very concerned Emily. "I'm fine Em why did you follow me?. Emily frowned, " i didn't know you didn't want me too". Emily sighed looking at the ground and played with her figure. Hey I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that, I'm glad you followed me but really I'm fine. Emily smiled as I brushed my thumb across her wrist. when we made eye contact I blushed. "Ali were you crying"? Emily brushed her free hand under my eyes wiping away the mascara I had missed. What no, I didn't want to admit to crying even though I new Emily wasn't stupid. "Ali" Emily cupped my cheek with her hand and I leaned into it, "what's wrong?" I sighed nothing I'm fine really, I just over reacted I'll apologise to Hanna later, I didn't mean to snap at her prom is just not something I really want to talk about right now I have a lot more things on my mind okay. "Okay" Emily gave in for now but I new this conversation was far from over. Walking toward the sink I then washed my hands before fixing my Face, when I turned around I Saw Emily waiting for me at the door with her hand stretched out, taking it in mine I smiled before bringing it up to my lips for a kiss.

After school the six of us met up again ready to walk home, and I apologised to Hanna who said it was fine. The girls agreed to not talk about prom, however they didn't realise that college was also not something I was ready for either. thankfully they didn't ask me what my plans where and instead I was able to listen to spencer who said she was planing on deferring for a year to travel with Toby, and honestly I never would have seen that coming. Hanna being Hanna still hasn't decided, getting accepted into more than 3 places and it made me realise just how much Hanna has grown as a person. Mona deferred her early admin to brown, but will be attending there in the fall and Aria is opting to do an a Arts degree at Hollis. I thought Emily and I were in the clear but when spencer asked Emily the dreaded question I was a little nervous. "Did you hear back from any offers yet Em? Emily nodded and I wasn't sure what I wanted her to say. "I'm still undecided spence but I might take up the offer from Dominic Russo, that Paige set me up with. I mean he said he could train me and help heel my arm, but I also still have my offer from Danby, they just don't know that I'm injured". I sighed hearing Emily talk about college was confusing, and I was wondering who the hell this Dominic guy is and what that means. Staying quiet we finally reached Spencer's house before she could even think about quizzing me, and I was more then relieved.

Unlocking my front door, I called out to my dad but when I received no reply I realised he wasn't home yet, which meant the two of us had the house to ourself. Emily and I haven't spent a night apart from each other since the rescue and we usually take it in turns on who's place we stay at, for the first week we stayed at Emily's her mom not wanting to let her go expect we didn't sleep in her room as she was to traumatised to even go in their. Mrs Fields and I had to do a complete make over of the room changing the colour of the walls, the bed sheets and even the way it was set out until eventually Emily wasn't creeped out. when we asked what colour she would like Emily went with a blue, claiming that it was like water and my eyes, and it was the only colour that could make her relax. When she first stayed the night at mine, I was a little unsure if she would be ok seeing my room but she said since she never had to sleep in it, the only memories of it are ones she has of me. Tonight was my turn again to have Emily stay over, and so heading upstairs to my room I collapsed on my bed. "What's up with you? your quiet" Emily questioned and I shrugged my shoulders. Mmm I guess I'm just tired, let me just change and then we can study, you said we could right? I flashed Emily my puppy dog eyes and she grinned, "of course we can, do you mind If I borrow something?" Sure help yourself. When the two of us were changed we spread out on my bed, and I began working on my math while Emily continued her French that I had already finished. Half an hour into our study session I could feel myself getting frustrated and Emily must have been able to tell. "You know Ali it's okay to ask for help". I rolled my eyes fine please help me babe, I don't know how to do this question. I pointed to my book and Emily smiled. "oh that, that's easy I learnt this ages ago see, you just got to multiple the 6 by the answer of c to find x. C = 6 squared which is 36 and 36 x 6 = 216 so the value of x is 216 get it?"

I frowned, Emily having lost me when she said she learnt this ages ago, and It occurred to me just how much I was behind in school. I couldn't help but feel guilt for not telling Emily what really happen with Hackett this morning after all she deserves to know and we promised no more secret, the truth is I'm just scared of what she'll say, I don't want me not graduating to effect where she goes for college and I know that if I don't tell her now she will end up mad but I can't . "Hello earth to Ali?" Emily waved her hand in my face and I smiled. Oh sorry what? "Hey were did you go just now?" Oh no where it's just... You know what, never mind you were saying? I question Em but she shook her head and closed my book. "Nope you are not getting out of it that easy Ali, not anymore talk to me" Emily sat up and I joined her leaning against my pillow. Fine if you really wanna know then I'll tell you. You know how I had a meeting with Hackett this morning, Emily nodded "yeah you said he wanted to talk about your workload" yeah he did, just not exactly how I put it. "what do you mean do you not need to catch up?" I shook my head, no I do but well Hackett told me this morning that I will not be able to graduate, at lest not with you guys, I sighed looking away from Emily only to have Emily tun my face back towards hers. "So your to behind to graduate?" I nodded yeah, Hackett said I'm at lest 6-12 months behind due to missing two years, and my time spent in jail. "Aww I'm sorry Ali I wish you could graduate with us". It's not your fault Em, bad things always seem to happen to me and this is just another thing I can add to my list. Oh and if you were wondering that's why I said No to prom. I asked Hackett if I could go, but since I'm no longer a senior he wasn't sure.

"what he can't do that"? Actually he can Em but I asked him to consider letting me go just this once because I new how much you would want to, he said he would see what he can do. "But... But if the girls can bring caleb, Ezra, and Toby why can't you go. Because my grades are low, I'm only averaging a C and I need a B. Anyone who wants to go to prom that attends Rosewood has to be averaging a B or above, one of the many stupid rules the bored has. They seems to think if people's grades are not up to scratch then they should be studying not at prom. I'm sorry Em I know how much you were looking forward to it, I even planed to you know be all romantic and ask you to be my date, Emily grinned before tackling Me into a hug. "That's sweet, but if you can't go to prom than we can just make our own one", I smiled at how adorable Emily was being. I can't let you skip prom Em you only get one senior prom. "so If I can't spend it with you then I'm not going and you can't make me" I kissed Emily on the cheek and smiled. I love you, "I love you too Ali". "So does... Does that mean you gotta stay in rosewood for another year take year 12 again? I shook my head no, well I mean Hackett Said that's up to me and my dad, he said that there is summer school I could take to help get at lest a year 11 pass. I just don't know what I want. "Well whatever you decided I'll be with you, I can defer college for a year take a year off and stay with you". Emily no your not doing that, I'm not letting you put your life on hold for me. "Ali it's fine I want to". No Em I won't let you do that, I'm not going to let myself ruin your life. "Ali your not going to ruin"... Em I'm serious you are going to college. But Ali that will mean I'll be like miles away from Rosewood and you'. So Em I don't care, "what? What are you say?" Emily's heart dropped.

we have been apart before, I'm serious okay I don't want you to put your life on hold for me, that include us. Emily's eyes began filling up with tears. "Ali why are you being so difficult? your not the only who gets a say in this, whatever happen to our future remember"? It is our future Your right, and I don't want to look back and regret letting you take a year off just for me okay. Emily shook her head "right so once again it's back to you and what you want, what about what I want? you know what forget it you clearly don't care what I want, Im going out don't follow me". Emily stormed out of my room aware that I was still talking. Em wait, calm down, lets just talk about this. "what's there to talk about Ali? you have clearly made up your mind"
