02:00ish pm Spence, Emily, Hanna, Aria(students released)
The school is quiet and peaceful to look at it no one would realize that some lives had been changed some for the better some for the worse, while others made it out completely untouched.

For the students at Rosewood High School some they were given extra time to prepare for this most important exam, for others they had more day to procrastinate until trying to cram as much as possible for all of them it was a day wasted in the school unable to leave and enjoy the day.

Today Spencer had he heartbroken thanks to A. Once again, she was one step ahead and it scared her to think how easy it seemed for her, him, it, them to mess with their lives. Not long after her mom left when Spencer asked her to give her a minute her phone beeped indicating she had a text and sure enough: poor spencer, another broken heart, you know what they say fours company, three's a crowd, there were four pictures: one was of Wren crossed out, then Alex crossed out, then one Spencer and someone in a black hood the face completely blacked out and underneath the caption said; only two can play this game bitch -A

For Emily the day just started out bad with the nightmare and then trying to seek solace at Ali's memorial only to find it ripped apart, Emily knew she could be high strung and she tried to calm down, but Wilden's constant surveillance, finding that letter in the book and then Wilden trying to search her bag had been too much combined with the confusion she had been feeling over two different people she had almost given up and curled in a ball when Mrs. Hastings arrived just as Wilden was about to open her bag. If all this had not been enough not long after Wilden had walked out of the room followed by a very angry Veronica Hastings Emily heard her phone beep alerting her to a text; As Dickens wrote: I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be." hope you liked the memento I left, oh and Emily sweet dreams -A. Emily looked up alarmed did A know about her nightmares?

Hanna had come out the most unscathed of her friends, if it hadn't been for Wilden tracking their every move and trying to arrest Emily for Vandalizing Ali's memorial, it would have been a normal day of hanging out with Mona, Sean, Spencer, Emily, Aria and Noel. she had gossiped with Mona, talk with her other friends about Alison, A and avoiding WIlden. She was a little disappointed that Aria told Noel she only wanted to be friends, and she was so going to ask her about that, but on the plus side Mona was going out with Noel tonight after Hanna and Sean suggested he get to know Hanna's other bestie better. But, for most of the day when not worrying about Wilden or A she tried to figure out how to get Sean her out and proud card carrying member of the V-club to have sex with her since she doesn't want to be a member of that club any more. She sees his wanting to wait as him seeing her as less than rather than how he actually sees her as someone worth waiting on when they are both ready not because of peer pressure, or to prove a point and not because your friend did it. Hanna hers her cell beeping indicating a text: poor Hefty Hanna still can't get Sean after all this time, maybe you're still to hefty for him, you know what to do -A

For Aria, the day was filled with so many surprises, but even the threat of WIlden or A had been unable to dampen her mood completely. But now as she sat by her mother as she pulled off Aria watched Jason's figure grow smaller and smaller for the first time that day she felt lost. Not long after she told the girls her very pared down version of what happened with Jason yesterday she received a text and it was from the friendly neighborhood stalker and it had two very clear pictures of her and Jason, one was in his car when he had pulled her into his lap and about ready to kiss, the other they were in the room he had rented and a text that read: half-truths don't cut it Aria, I wonder what the girls would say if they knew about you and my brother-A. Aria could have sworn they had closed the curtains and there was no mistaking what was happening in that one or who it was. Once again A had been a step ahead, but even that couldn't bring Aria down like watching Jason disappear from her sight.

"So, your Mr. Fitz is a real gentle man Aria,' Ella said hoping to lighten the mood Aria had been all smiles for most of the day but now, it was like a cloud of depression had been waiting for her when she got in the car.

"Really", had he gotten up the nerve to ask her mom out.

"Yes, I kind of lost it today and started crying over your dad and he just let me cry on his shoulder and said if I ever need a friend to look him up." Ella missed the exact context of his words and the way she paraphrased them sounded like a guy just trying to be nice.

"That's great mom. He is a nice guy."

Aria heard the buzz that indicated a text, she opens it there were two attached pictures one of Jason and Aria in the basement and she was on top of him almost completely nude except for the black lace bra pushed down to expose her breast and the fabulous shoes she is wearing hands grasping his shoulder and intense look on her face as she watches his face. Jason because he was on the bottom against the floor still had his pants and boxers around his thighs and his torso completely bare his head was thrown back in ecstasy. How did A find them, Jason said it was the one place he never got caught when he was in school?

Aria's hand shook as she opened the next one expecting another explicit picture of her and Jason, but this one was of her mom in Mr. Fitz arms and even though Aria knows what is happening in the pictured they look like lovers meeting in secret as soon as Aria opened up the pictures another text came: hmm wonder what people will say when they see what Mom and daughter have been up to today -A

~Fin~

Notes: this is obviously a 1x09 rewrite, not because I really cared about the Ezria scene when I still liked them, but thought it could make a nice sequel to Rainy Night in Rosewood.

Also, something readers should know Emily is bisexual in this, she is bisexual in the books, I hate how we are almost always represented as slutty (males and females) like we just can't keep it in our pants, lack the ability to fall in love and be monogamous. Also, I never shipped Emily with anyone except Toby and Maya. But, any who enough about that.

This is an extremely long one shot. The time lines of the show have been altered to suit my needs as you will see. This is my second version, the first version didn't save I got so into writing it that 10,000+ words later I thought I hit save because I needed a break, I almost cried when I went back to look at it and it was gone *sniffle* 8`( . It seems like when this happens you can never get it like it was and imo the first one was much better, maybe when I go back to do the second draft can fix it some. please leave comments god, bad ugly, just not rude

I'm not sure where the Ezra pairing came from it is something I never had thought of until I was writing the scene with him and Aria and it just happened I hope I don't squink you out too much with that.

The Wilden scenes are very upsetting the first time I wrote them I was really proud of myself they were just so organic and didn't seem forced or contrived which is exactly how I feel the second version came out especially the Jason/Wilden scene the first one was so much better. Note to self, save often not 10,000 plus words later. Anyway...

Hope you enjoyed it. -GrimLi
