Seeing Alison
Part III- Spencer

"Don't!"

"Don't scream, please."

I blink my eye rapidly, trying to understand the sight before me, but she doesn't give me enough time before she speaks again.

"I needed something from the bag."

My head tilts to the side and I can feel the confusion settle on my face.

"What?"

Ali just looks up at me through long blonde tresses, looking remorseful.

"You're really mad at me, aren't you? Not telling you about Jason."

"Alison…"

I try to say more but before I can she continues.

"Things would've been so different if I'd spilled, I mean Jason's your brother too and that practically makes us sisters right? You deserve a decent sister."

I let that thought sink in, Ali and I could've been like sisters. Somewhere in the back of my mind the thought repulses me, but it isn't until later that I realize the true reason the thought repulses me. I look over at her and she grabs my pill bottle with a little grin.

"Ooo pain killers, mind if I take a couple for the road?"

I stare at her in disbelief, trying to make sense of everything before pulling the bottle away from her.

"What road? Are you still hiding out as Vivian?" I don't let her interrupt this time, and continue with my speech.

"Alison, Aria met Duncan, he took her up in his plane and he told her that he flew you back from Hilton Head that day."

I see her roll her eyes, presumably at Duncan and can't help but smile a little, typical Ali.

"He talks to much. But I'm glad you guys haven't given up. Maybe now that you're got this." She looks down at the blue duffel bag pointedly.

"Why? What's in there? What should I be looking for?"

"Can't tell you." She says with a shrug before lifting the bag onto the couch next to me.

"But don't get hung up on the details and miss what's parked right in front of you."

I grab for the bag and start to rummage through the contents, hoping to find something, anything that will help make sense of everything around me.

"I miss you Spence." As my name leaves her lips she reaches up and strokes my cheek. My skin tingles where she touches me.

"I miss that fierce look in your eyes when you had to know the answers, had to win the game, but this isn't yahtzee sweetie. This is some seriously messed up stuff. But here's the good news, you're getting warmer."

Looking down at her again I feel my body heat up. Without hesitation I grab for the bag and start digging again, this time she grabs my wrist, effectively stopping me.

"Don't get obsessed either Spence, sometimes you just need to take a step back and see what's been there all along."

As she says these words her head tilts slightly to the side and she gives me a cute little grin. Even in the haste and confusion that's spinning in my mind I find myself smiling back. Our eyes find each other and lock together, neither of us blinking.

We gaze at each other, taking in every feature, studying the other. I feel myself swallowing hard as I try to place her expression.

Long seconds pass and it should be uncomfortable, but it isn't, so neither of us move.

In these moments I fully come to appreciate how beautiful her face is, the curve of her lips, her smooth tanned skin and her twinkling blue eyes, oh how I've missed her.

It's then that another reality hits me and the full veracity of her expression hits me.

Because Ali is looking at me like I actually mean something.

Before I can fully comprehend that thought she surges forward and captures my lips with her own. The unexpected movement shocks me in such a way that I let out a little gasp. She pulls back and her face is unreadable.

Our eyes meet and for the first time in my life I see uncertainty swimming in her crystalline orbs. Without conscious choice I reach up and cup her cheek before crashing our lips together once more.

This time, it's Ali who's surprised, but she doesn't pull away, instead she presses our lips together more fiercely while tangling her hands in my hair.

Her lips and mine move together in a passionate dance and I feel dizzy from the ache building inside of me.

My mind is hazy, all reason and logic escape me. All I can see, feel, hear and taste is Alison, and I've never felt more alive.

Ali slides her tongue along my bottom lip begging for entrance, I don't hesitate. Instantly she seeks out my tongue and starts to tease me, coaxing me to play her game.

I smirk into her mouth and push her jacket from her shoulders before flipping our positions, pushing her down onto the couch and straddling her waist. She quirks her eyebrow at me but I smile triumphantly.

In response she grabs the front of my shirt and pulls me down, crushing our mouth together again. Her hands run down my sides and settle on my waist as I twist my fingers into her hair.

Ali nips at my lips playfully, trying to regain some control. The action pulls a moan from my lips and it spurs her on. She sucks my tongue into her mouth and moves her hands down to squeeze my ass.

I pull my lips away from hers and try to catch my breath but Ali is relentless and takes the opportunity to flip us over.

I don't have time to think before her lips find my neck, licking and nipping from my ear to my collar bone.

"Fuck… Ali…" My voice is hoarse and full of desire. She just smiles against my throat, quickly shifting to suck on my pulse point.

I tug at her hair, urging her back to my mouth. Fire is spreading through my body, and I'm still in complete shock that this is happening, especially with Ali.

When our lips meet again I move my hands up and down her sides caressing her body, she lets out little gasps, but never parts her lips from mine. I feel her hand sliding between us as she moves towards my shorts.

That's when the sound of a door shutting rings through the house. Ali and I jump apart. She reaches for her jacket, and then looks me in the eyes, whispering into the night.

"I love that look of passion in your eyes Spence, don't give up okay?"

I just nod, not wanting her to go, not wanting the night to end.

"Wait Ali, don't go, I don't want you to leave and, well, I'm scared…" My voice is still hoarse but this time there is a hint of desperation behind it.

She moves close again and kisses my lips softly before stroking my face.

"Don't worry, I will protect you Spence, no matter what the cost."

Another noise sounds from upstairs and I panic, quickly shoving the bag under the couch and pretending to be asleep, although even when sleep comes, all I do is dream of Ali.

The next day I wake up to Melissa asking about the open front door. My heart races as the events from the previous night resurface. Was that real or was it just a dream?

When Melissa turns her back to me I look under the couch, sure enough the bag is there. I quickly glace to the table and see the bottle of pills is still open.

I stare at it, mouth hanging out when my sister's voice snaps me out of a daze.

"Spencer, was Toby here last night?"

I look up at her with a confused expression. "What? Why would you think that?"

She doesn't speak but points to my neck instead. Carefully I move my finger up towards my pulse, where there is a small bruise.

"Gosh Spence, you need to be more careful, mom and dad could've seen!" She just chuckles and walks about, leaving me in my own little hyper reality.

Wordless I grab my phone and type out an SOS.

To: Aria, Hanna & Emily

SOS. Ali's alive, and we need to talk. Now. Meet me asap.

-Spence

Well there you have it, now that Spencer's not only seen Ali, but shared a very intimate experience with her, what will she tell the others? How will Hanna and Emily take the news that they aren't the only one's that Ali has kissed? Oh, and what about Aria? It's her turn to see Ali, but when?

Stay tuned, and thanks for reading!
