Knock knock knock
Emily heard a knocking on her door at 8pm that night.
'Who is out when it's this dark and this stormy?' she wondered. Her mom was not home. Quietly she tiptoed to her door and opened it to find someone standing there, hair dripping wet and shivering.
Alison.
"Ali?" gasped Emily "What are you doing here?"
"I talked to Noel" she quickly said with tears streaming down her face (although hard to notice, as her face was already soaking wet from rain water).
"You talked to Noel?" Emily was confused. "About what?"
"I told him it's over. Between us"
"Why would you do that?"
"Because...because I'm confused too. I don't know who I am anymore and something about me and Noel just isn't right"
"Ali-come in. It's freezing out there"
A soaking wet freezing cold Alison Dilaurentis slowly crept into Emily's house.
"Here let me get you a towel" Emily ran to the bathroom and came back with a towel in which she wrapped around Alison.
"Why did you come here, in the freezing cold soaking wet to tell me this?"
"Because that's the kind of thing I'm willing to do for you"
Alison started crying again.
"Here" Emily said smiling "Let me take you out somegwhere, to get your mind off of Noel." Alison nodded her head as the pair grabbed two coats off of the coat peg and headed out the door.
Minutes later, the girls walked into a cafe on the corner.
"Em, what are we doing here?" Alison said, slightly laughing.
"We are here to make you feel better. Is it working yet?"
"Yeah. I think it is..."
They sat down in one of the booths and a small skinny waitress came over to them, holding a huge notepad.
"What can I get for you two ladies" she grumbled, not even looking up.
"Can I get a triple chocolate milkshake with sprinkled on top and can I get my friend the hugest, richest, chocolaty-est thing on the menu" Emily ordered. Alison laughed.
"You know chocolaty-est isn't a word" she said, smiling.
"I don't care. It is now" Alison and Emily's faces brightened up. Suddenly, a song started playing
"Looking for a pair to come up and sing" the short man with the bushy mustache announced "Anyone?"
Emily abruptly stood up.
"Us please" she shouted, grabbing Alison by the hand and dragging her up onto the stage. Everyone in the cafe cheered.
"Em, what the hell are you doing?" Alison giggled.
"Come on Queen Bee. Your going to sing with me" Emily grabbed the microphone and started singing
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there on a balcony in the summer air
"Do we have to sing this?" Alison moaned. Emily handed her a microphone and continued singing
See the lights, see the party, see the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello"
Little did I know
"Fineee" Alison moaned. She lowered her head into the microphone and started singing
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all that's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"
"Your my Romeo" Alison mouthed to Emily.
Emily: So I sneak out of the garden to see you
We kept quit 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes...escape this town for a little while
Oh oh
Alison: 'Cause you were Romeo -I was a scarlet letter
And me daddy said "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go
And I said...
Alison + Emily: Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all that's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"
Alison: Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult but it's real
Emily: Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"
Alison + Emily: I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said...
Alison: Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...
Emily: Marry me Juliet, you'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad- go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"
Alison: 'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
As Alison said the very last line, she moved closer to Emily. The song finished and the whole crowd cheered. Alison threw her arms around Emily's neck, dropping the microphone. Emily put her arms around Alison's waist and they kissed. The crowd wolf whistled and cheered.
"Don't let me go" Alison whispered.
