A/N: I am so sorry I haven't updated in a while. I was in Tahoe on vacation. It was hot, but you could still see SNOW on the mountains! In July!:) Anyway, the majority of the votes were for Aria and Derek this chapter. Next is Spencer, then Hanna, and then Emily. I also wanted to add that in this story, Aria's parents live together and Ezra still teaches at Rosewood. And Ella teaches at Rosewood too.
Derek and Aria arrived at the Montgomery household.
Aria opened the door. "Mom? Dad? Mike? Anyone here?"
Ella, Byron, and Mike came into the living room.
"Agent Morgan. How nice to see you again. You remember my husband Byron and my son Mike?" said Ella.
"Nice to see you again Mrs. Montgomery. And please, call me Derek."
Ella pointed to herself. "Ella. We're a very informal family. Well, I have to drop Mike off at lacrosse practice, and then I have to stay and grade papers. And has to go to Hollis. Aria, why don't you give Derek a tour."
When everyone left, Aria took him into the kitchen. "So, this is the kitchen. Since you're going to be staying here, help yourself to food. The bathroom is down the hall." Aria took him upstairs. "This is Mike's room and this is my parents'. That's the bathroom and that's my room. And the guest room is right across from mine. You can put yourself in there."
"Thanks," said Derek as he put his bag in his room. "Mind if I check your room out? I need to check out your windows."
"Sure," said Aria as she led him in.
Derek walked to the window and looked out it. "Who lives there?" asked Derek as he pointed to the house across from them.
"The Jeffersons. Don't worry. I doubt they killed Ali. They're 70 years old and have six cats."
"Nice."
He looked around the room until his eyes landed on a pile of books on her bedside table.
"Hey. Can I borrow a book? I didn't bring one and I'm probably gonna have some downtime." As he said this, he picked up the top book. It read Winesburg Ohio, and inside was a note from Ezra.
Aria quickly snatched it from him. He stared at her.
"Um…" Aria grabbed Great Expectations. "Read this? It's one of my favorites."
"Uh, no. Thanks."
Derek's phone rang. "Hey, Babygirl." Aria raised her eyebrow. "Uh-huh. Hold on. Aria, is Alison's family in town?"
"Her parents moved to New York after the funeral and her brother Jason moved to Philadelphia."
Derek nodded and got back on the phone. "No, they aren't. Alright. Bye, Garcia."
"That your girlfriend?" asked Aria, feigning innocence.
Derek smiled. "Uh, no. Penelope Garcia. She's our tech analyst and one of my close friends. You'd like her."
"Well, maybe she could drop by sometime. In the meantime, I've got homework. So, I'll be here if you need to ask me any questions. Otherwise, I'll tell you when dinner is ready," said Aria.
"Cool," said Derek, as he left for his room.
A/N: Next chapter will be up by Monday. Maybe before. If I get anything wrong, like you think someone is out of character, review or PM me. I will be happy to take anything you guys say into consideration. Anyways, send a review and give me some ideas. I always want to know what you guys want to see in the story, no matter how small.
