Chapter 28: These talks
This is the week...the week we are going to welcome our new baby. I'm going to be induced tomorrow and I'm nervous. The girls got here today, and Toby is staying with Caleb and Ezra at the suite they got so we can have some girl time.
"So what names have you guys thought about?" Emily asked.
"For a girl we chose Ambrielle, and a boy we chose Ryland" I said.
"Those are weird" Hanna said.
"Yea, but it fits, I mean Spencer is a unique name for a girl, and so is Meyson."
"But they're still common, just for the opposite sex"
"Whatever, we like them" I said.
"So do i" Aria said.
It was nice being with my girls like this. Sitting in my living room, talking about everything.
"So what's been happening in Rosewood?" I asked. All of them looked at each other.
"What?" I said. I could tell something was up.
"um...well Mona's back in town..." Hanna said. I was shocked.
"Has she done anything?"
"No, but we have a feeling that she's up to something"
"Like what?"
"We saw her talking to CeeCee..."
"What about my sister?"
"We haven't seen her"
"Fine her, and keep an eye on her."
"What if it's happening again?"
"Has anyone seen Alli?" I asked.
"She came up a few weeks ago..." Emily said.
"What did she say?"
"Just about old times...she didn't say anything about them"
"All we can do is wait to see if something happens" Aria said.
"And keep our guards up"
"And keep each other posted" I said looking at Emily.
"Spencer, will you be able to come up if something does happen"
"I'll make sure I can" I said.
"I really don't think anything will come up again though" Hanna said.
"But we don't know that for sure Han...we still have to be ready" I said.
"look, this isn't talk for you right now, your going to be giving birth tomorrow" Emily said.
The rest of the night we talked about anything and everything but A and the A team.
I refuse to let this stuff come back. This is the whole reason we left Rosewood. So we wouldn't have to deal with this, so we wouldn't have to fear this. I don't want to look over my shoulder. I don't want to fear for my kids.
Later on that night it was just Emily and I awake.
"So what do you think about all this?" I asked her quietly.
"I think that, with all of us separated it will be safer"
"Me too"
"But Hanna doesn't see that"
"This is exactly why we left"
"I don't think anything is going on though. I think it will, but not right now. Maybe in the future...but anytime soon, nothing. I just don't have that feeling. Plus, if Mona has been back in Rosewood, something would have happened, one of us would have gotten a text"
"That's true"
"Spencer, if something does come up, I want you to stay here"
"no way"
"Spencer, I mean it. Unless I call you and tell you personally that we need you, than I better not see you in Rosewood"
Emily was being serious. Since high school ended, Emily has really grown a backbone. She colored her hair a dark blonde that fits her personality really well. She's majoring in business management, and she's going to try out for the Olympics. She's grown into herself, and she's finally been able to get out of our shadows, and Alli's shadows.
"Fine" I said.
"Now, go and try to sleep...you need to get your rest before tomorrow" she said. I nodded and laid back down on the bed.
