Alison Dilaurentis is an 18 year old senior in high school who has just recovered from a hit and run that left her in a coma. What happens when she drops her books and Emily helps her pick them up? Will fate bring them together?

Chapter 1

Emily's POV

"So how was your summer?" Spencer asked me. She was one of my two best friends. We had known each other since 2nd grade. I knew I had to become friends with her the second that she let me copy off of her test. The girl was a genius, but also funny and sarcastic. She was real girlfriend material…to bad she was straight.

"It was alright. I mean there's nothing special about Los Angeles." I said honestly. It was true, the first day I got there it was cool. One week into being there I wanted to come back to Rosewood. The only good thing about it was I had a new chick every week.

Suddenly Hanna, my other best friend came up to me. She jumped into my arms. "Thank god your back Em, I was getting worried about all that time you spent in LA. I was so paranoid you were gonna come back looking like Kim Kardashian." She said with a relived look on her face.

"Well, its good to see you too Hanna." I said with a smirk. Hanna and I had basically known each other since birth. Our mothers were friends with each other when they were kids.

We engulfed in conversation for a couple more minutes until a blonde girl dropped her books and materials all over the busy hallway floor. Hanna and Spencer gasped in surprise. "What the hell is wrong with both of you?" I asked them.

"That's Alison Dilaurentis. She was hit by a car and was in a coma for three months. I thought I told you about this over Skype." Hanna said to me. I really didn't remember that, I was probably pretending to listen to her just like I did most of the time Hanna was gossiping to me.

"Yeah, it was insane. I can't believe she's back in school already." Spencer said. Alison was still struggling to pick up her books. She had finally got all of her books together only to be bumped into to have everything fall onto the floor again.

"Shit." The blue eyed blonde girl cursed. She was a rather attractive girl. I was surprised I had never noticed her before. It was then that I noticed a teal colored spiral notebook at my feet. I picked it up. It red 'Ali' on it in big bold black letters. I started walking over to her, she was now putting the books she had dropped in her beige locker.

"Hey." I said, making the girl jump. "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." I said with a smile. I could feel my two best friends eyes on the back of my head from behind me.

"Its umm okay." She said shyly.

"You dropped this." I said handing her the notebook. She took it from me with a grateful look on her face.

"Thanks I thought I lost this." She said, putting it into her locker.

"I'm Emily by the way." I said with a smile.

"Yeah I know." Alison said. "I mean…um I'm Alison." She said getting more nervous by the second. I thought it was kinda cute. Alison was a beautiful girl, she had these peircing blue eyes, I felt like she could see straight into soul with those eyes. "But you probably already knew that." She said the last part almost sadly. I had guessed she was referring to her accident, which had spread through the school quickly. But somehow I didn't get the memo.

"Yeah, I did. It was cool to meet you. Maybe we can hang some time." I said with a half smile.

"Ye..ah…May..be." She saif. I could tell she had problems with her speech, must have been because of the accident. I noticed her shoes were untied.

"Your shoes are untied." I said. She looked down at her feet in shame.

"Yeah, I uh…I can't tie them anymore." She said, that must have sucked. I beant down to the floor and started tying up her black laces on her black and white classic low top converse. "What…are you…you, doing?" She asked me as she looked down at me.

"I'm tying your shoes for you." I said with a smile. She smiled shyly. I could hear Spencer and Hanna cooing and in awe over my gesture in the background. I finally finished my task and stood back up.

"You didn't have to do that." She said, blushing. Her skin turned a light shade of red.

"I know, I wanted to though." I said. I winked and started walking away, I turned on heels and winked at her. "I'll catch you later Ali." I said before returning to Hanna and Spencer. Alison walked away and she was blushing, she was red as a tomato.

"Oh my gosh, you are sooo crushing on her!" Hanna cheered excitedly.

"I am not. I was just being nice." I said.

"Em, you are crushing on her. Your body language was giving it all away. Plus you did the cliche helping her lick something up thing. And you tied her shoe. If that's not a crush then I don't know what is." Spencer said. I rolled my eyes at their accusations even though I knew it was true. I did have a crush on Alison. What wasn't to like? We started walking to homeroom together. We had Mr. Fitz. Pretty dope guy if I must say so myself.

ALISON'S POV

"You don't understand Cece. She was so nice and so charming." I said, referring to Emily Fields. Everything from those chocolate brown eyes to the way she tied my shoe for me was amazing. "I think she could potentially be a really good…friend." I said, lying about how I just wanted to be friends with her. We were in homeroom with Mr. Fitz and he hasn't arrived yet. We were considerably early considering we were the only two people in the room.

"Ali, you don't have to pretend that you just want to be friends with Emily okay? Its so obvious that you are crushing on her. But even if you do just want to be friends with her…that sucks for you because Emily is only 'just friends' with two girls." Cece said to me.

"I know…I uh…" I felt my speech start to deteriorate again. My speech would go in and out a lot since the accident. Suddenly Emily walked in with two other girls. They were laughing and smiling. Maybe those are the two girls Cece was referring to earlier.

"Hey stranger." Emily said, from her desk.

"I…ummm…." I couldn't get it out.

"She says hey." Cece said stepping in for me. "I'm Cece by the way." Cece said.

"Oh, thats a cool name." Emily complimented. I reached into my pocket to get my phone but ended up banging my already injured wrist on the hard table.

"Ah, fuu…fuu…ckk" I couldn't get the words out.

"Oh my god! Do I need to call an ambulance?!" Cece panicked. I clutched my wrist in pain. Emily stood from her desk and walked over to me. She took my wrist in her soft and warm hands.

"You can trust me." She said with a reassuring smile. She kissed my wrist and instantly it felt better. "Better?" She asked.

"Better." I said, still not believing what just transpired. I hadn't even noticed that all the other people had filed into the classroom and were staring at both of us. I heard some indistinct whispers and giggles.

"Okay class. Partner up and discuss what you did over the summer." Mr. Fjtz said as he entered the classroom. Emily went back to her seat, and smiled at me one last time before turning back to her friends.

"Well, your fucked." Cece said.

This is my new story, let me know if I should continue it.
