Hey guys! Here we go for the first epilogue! I might have to warn you: Emily may be a little OOC here, but it will all be explained. Also, for the ones asking me about my new fic, I'll give you one hint:
HINT #1: Alison is a married teacher while Emily is a womanizer businesswoman.
1st Epilogue
Two years later…
"God, Em!" - Alison screamed in pleasure as Emily thrust hard the blue dildo inside of her - "You're so good at this!" - She was currently on her knees, butt in the air, while her Mermaid entered her from behind with a strap-on. Emily had shyly asked her to fulfill this old fantasy and, God, how does it feel good! She never knew Emily had such a dominating side and she loved her woman's gentle aggression. It felt good to surrender from time to time.
Emily smirked, dug her fingers on Ali's hips, and thrust even harder, making the bed creak - "You're delicious, love!" - She'd always dreamed of having Alison like this, so submissive, so willing… Emily had thought of suggesting it before, but she'd no idea of how Ali would take it. When the blonde bought their dildo two years ago, Emily realized that it might be better to get used to the toy first before trying bolder things. And now she was pounding in and out of Alison in a mindless pace while hitting all the right spots inside her woman.
"Oh shit!" - Ali hissed.
Emily leaned in and teasingly licked her ear - "Tell me who owns you"
"You, Em!… Ah!" - The blonde bucked her hips against Emily as she writhed - "Only you… Shit!"
"Good girl" - The vet kissed her neck and grinned. Then, something strange happened. Emily became slightly dizzy and her stomach began to ache, probably because she was going too hard, she thought. Therefore, she slowed her rhythm and focused on precision and depth.
"Don't… stop" - Alison breathed out when she noticed the change in the rhythm.
"Never" - Emily pressed a kiss on her shoulder blade and leaned forward, putting her hands on top of Ali's and enveloping her with her body in a much more intimate position.
"Em..." - Ali whimpered when she felt the brunette's breasts brushing against her back. She began to wonder why Emily had changed her ways when she was doing so well… However, how could she think straight with Emily deliciously pressing that one spot which made her see stars? - "I'm close!"
Emily peppered kisses on her neck and slid one hand to Ali's clit, expertly pressing it as she pounded into her - "Come for me, beautiful!"
"Oh! Emily!" - Alison couldn't support her weight much longer, crashing down onto the bed as she came. The vet fell on top of her but quickly got off and out of her, leaving Ali to regain her breath on her own. The sickness in her stomach had increased and her throat involuntarily moved as if she was about to throw up.
"Emily, are you okay?" - Alison rolled around to face her, feeling slightly distraught at the brunette's lack of affection after sex.
She felt the bile rising to her throat before having the opportunity formulate an answer - "Please, don't take this as a critic on what we just did" - Emily didn't even bother to take off the harshness before rushing into the bathroom, making her way to the toilet and purging her stomach clean. She threw up one, two, three times…
"Baby, are you okay?" - Alison appeared by the bathroom door in a nightgown bringing a silky robe with her. After the third time, Emily only head the strength to lean her forehead against the flush. Alison walked to her, delicately removed the harness and slipped the robe around the vet's shoulder - "Can you stand?"
"No, Ali, my head is spinning, I…!" - Emily reached for the sink and threw up again while her girlfriend apologetically rubbed circles on her back.
"Breathe, baby, breathe" - Once her purging stopped, Alison flushed the toilet, wrapped one of Em's arms around her neck and carried (dragged) her back to their bed.
"I'll give you tea and crackers" - Ali kissed her forehead.
"Don't, Ali. I don't think my stomach can handle it!"
"I can't let you walk around with absolutely nothing on your stomach, Em!" - The blonde argued - "If you faint, I'll have to call Toby or one of the boys"
"Alright" - Emily snorted and conceded resentfully.
After eating the cracker and taking a shower, Emily returned to the bed, lied on her side of the bed and curled up against Alison.
"I'm so sorry for what happened, Ali!" - The brunette blushed in embarrassment and hid her face on the journalist's shoulder - "I'm so ashamed!"
Alison caressed her scalp and kissed her head - "We've seen each other sick already, Emily"
"I know… but it never happened during sex"
"It's okay, baby" - Alison became slightly worried at her woman's uneasiness. Therefore, she tried to change the subject - "You were amazing by the way"
Much to her surprise, the brunette snapped - "I threw up four times, Alison, and all you can think about was sex?!" - And she rolled off from her girlfriend's shoulder and scooted away, turning her back to Alison.
Ali wanted to apologize immediately. She put her hand on Emily's hips and kissed the crook of her neck gently - "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
"Leave me alone, Alison" - Emily raged with tears in her eyes.
The journalist considered pursuing it further, but the hurt in her girlfriend's voice made her back away and give Emily space.
Two weeks later…
Emily took two days to resume speaking with Alison, and the blonde couldn't believe that her girlfriend was so upset over being sick during sex. Also, she began to notice that Emily was getting emotional more easily now. Alison suspected that she was having a hard time at work, but Emily would always deny it. Nevertheless, she tried to put a smile on the brunette's face and pamper her with her love but, as much as Emily seemed eager for it, she always backed away in the last minute. Alison knew that she was still embarrassed because of what happened. However, she wanted Emily to know that it would change nothing between them, it wouldn't shake Ali's staunch affection for her.
She'd think of it later, she thought, as she waited for Aria so they could have lunch together. It's been one year since Christina Dianne Fitz was born and the little girl amazed the group (just like Chloe had). Spencer, her godmother, was also pregnant with a boy on his way. She and Toby haven't decided on the name yet. Still, in spite of having a good job, a good marriage, a beautiful daughter, and a godson on his way, Alison sensed that Aria wasn't happy anymore and she wished to talk to her friend about it. Once Aria was free, they went out to have lunch at a restaurant nearby.
"So… how is little Tina?" - Alison asked once their orders were taken.
"She's fine. Ezra must be looking after her now" - Aria answered absentmindedly. As soon as she returned from her maternity leave, Ezra cut down his teaching hours so he could take care of their daughter, which meant that their budget was tighter now.
"Aria, are you okay?" - Ali put her hand over her friend's.
The small brunette took a deep breath before answering - "I'm thinking of leaving the newspaper, Alison"
"Why?"
"The pay isn't enough for three, I guess. Also, I wanna have more time with my daughter and I don't want to receive a phone call at 3 am sending me to cover a random event" - Aria let it out.
"What do you wanna do after you leave, Aria?" - Alison asked - "You can't just stay at home because you need the money"
"I'm thinking of opening a photo studio" - She confessed - "I know that's a bold investment, but it's a risk I'm willing to take"
"You'll basically begin as a freelancer photographer, I assume"
"That's right. I won't leave the newspaper immediately, only after I have enough budget to follow on my own"
"I see… well, if that's what you want, I support you" - Alison smiled.
"Well, Ali, I was wondering if you'd like to join me on that" - Aria timidly suggested.
"W-What?" - The blonde was seriously taken aback by the invitation.
"I know you like photography and you're good at it. I've seen the pictures you took of me when we were younger" - Aria threw.
"Oh" - Ali blushed when she remembered snapping pictures of Aria. The small brunette was just too cute when she was sleeping (almost as cute as her Mermaid) and she just couldn't resist. I'm so gay, she thought - "Sorry about that"
Aria chuckled - "Never mind"
"It's been ages since I've taken a good photo, Aria. I'm not sure if I am any good at this"
"I can always teach you one thing or another, but I'm sure you got what it takes"
Alison decided to ask the question that's been nagging her since Aria suggested that - "But why the invitation?"
Aria let out a breath - "Look, I know that you and Emily have been trying to have a baby. And do you seriously believe that you'll be able to give your child any attention with the crazy routine there at the paper?"
Alison considered it for a moment. As much as she loved her job at the newspaper, it could be overbearing at times. How was she supposed to leave Emily all alone at night with a child if she received a last minute call? How could she spend time with her child (and prove to herself she's changed) if she and Emily had unstable routines?
"You're right" - Alison conceded - "But I need to think about the offer"
"Okay" - Aria agreed - "Speaking of it, how are you and Emily?"
"We're fine… but Emily's a little moody right now"
"Why?"
"She's frustrated because she's not getting pregnant with the treatment" - It was Ali's time to open up. After saving money, Alison and Emily decided that this year would be appropriate for them to get a fertility treatment. As Emily's the one who wants to carry the egg, they searched for a blue-eyed, blonde donor with no history of psychological problems (per Alison's request). They opted for the IUI (intrauterine insemination) treatment because it was cheaper. However, they failed on their first attempt. Emily was slightly upset at it but took it with resignation because success rates for a woman under 30 was 15% only.
They tried once again and failed too. This left Emily frustrated at herself because she thought she wasn't capable of carrying a baby and wanted to give up the fertilization treatment. Alison, with much pampering and coaxing, convinced the brunette that there was nothing wrong with her body and that they could try one last time before moving on to other (and more expensive) treatments or adopting. Alison even considered offering to carry the egg – anything to please her Mermaid. But Emily agreed to try one last time and, one month ago, they tried again.
"The third time didn't work also?" - Aria asked sympathetically.
"We don't know for sure, but I think that Emily thinks it didn't because she's back to being moody again. Do you believe that she got mad at me for taking care of her when she was throwing up? She gave me the cold shoulder for two days, Aria!"
Hum… Throwing up, being moody… Aria was adding that information on her mind and she remembered of her own early pregnancy symptoms. She'd acted the same way Emily was (and bless Ezra for being so patient). Aria wasn't a doctor so she couldn't state that for sure, but something in her guts told her that Emily was pregnant.
"But you're not back to fighting, are you?" - She managed to hide her smirk.
"No. How could I, after everything she's been through?" - Ali smiled sadly.
"You're sweet, Ali" - This time, it was Aria who reached out for her hand.
"I just wish I could give her this" - Alison opened her purse and picked up a small velvet box.
"Oh my God! You're gonna propose to her!" - Aria squealed in joy and surprise.
"I saved more money than she did last year and it was enough for me to buy a ring" - Ali told - "And I know I'm the one who will have to propose because Emily thinks that I don't care for marriage as long as we're together. And I didn't… but, with all this baby stuff, I decided that it might not be so far-fetched after all. And the thought of having Emily as my wife is breathtaking.
"When are you going to propose?" - Aria asked, trying to keep her excitement in check.
"I was thinking of when she gets pregnant, but I don't think she's in the mood right now for this" - Ali murmured in a melancholic tone.
They were interrupted by Ali's phone blasting off.
"It's from the hospital where Emily works" - Alison commented mildly worried.
"Ms. DiLaurentis?"
"Yes?"
"I'm sorry to inform you, but Dr. Fields fainted while she was working. She's been taken to the hospital"
Alison almost dropped her phone as her heart hammered inside her chest - "I'm on my way" - She turned off the phone and picked up her purse.
"What happened?" - Aria was watching the whole scene in shock and concern.
"Emily fainted. She's in the hospital right now" - The blonde managed.
"I'm coming with you" - Aria rose from her chair and followed her unnerved friend.
Alison dashed through the ER until she found the bed where Emily was lying.
"Emily!" - She ran to her woman and flung into her arms, not caring for a moment whether the brunette could receive such a powerful hug.
"Ali..." - Emily was somehow relieved to have her girlfriend there - "I didn't know you were coming"
"They called from from your work and told me you fainted while I was having lunch" - Alison cupped her face.
"You didn't have to come here. I probably fainted due to low blood pressure or something. I'm pretty sure I can go back to work after my exams" - Emily argued.
"No way. I'm taking you home after this" - Ali insisted.
"But, Ali..."
"You just fainted, Em. You need to rest" - They were too entrapped in their little argument that they didn't even notice Aria taking a picture of them.
"Guys, you are so cute!" - The photographer squealed.
"Aria, what are you doing here?!" - Emily seemed surprised at her presence.
"Taking pictures of you" - She winked.
"In the middle of an argument?" - Alison arched her brow.
Aria was about to answer when a doctor came in announcing Emily's name.
"Yes?" - Emily answered as Aria discreetly left so as to allow them privacy.
"Is this a friend?" - The doctor pointed at Alison, who cleared her throat.
"I'm her girlfriend"
"Oh" - The doctor looked at Emily and then at her exams and took a deep breath. How was he supposed to tell them that Emily was pregnant? There was no way the child was the blonde's. Well, they could always resort to sperm banks, he thought - "Are you under a fertilization treatment?"
"Yes" - Emily nodded carefully.
"IUI, to be precise" - Alison complemented.
The doctor let out a relieved sigh - "Well, according to your symptoms and to your blood test, you're pregnant, Ms. Fields!"
Emily's eyes widened in surprise while Alison crushed her hand - "R-Really?"
"I double checked it" - The doctor smirked and left, allowing them to cherish this moment alone.
"You did it! I knew you would!" - Alison hugged her girlfriend and smiled proudly.
"We're gonna be mothers, Ali!" - Emily squealed and grinned like a fool.
"Yes, we are, my love" - The blonde put her hand on Emily's womb and kissed her gently.
Alison took Emily home after she was released from the hospital. The happy couple now could barely wait to spread their good news to the whole world.
"I still can't believe it's happening" - Emily beamed and threw herself at the couch.
"Me too" - Alison answer rather absently, her fingers fidgeting the zipper of her purse. She thought about the little velvet box inside of it and wondered if now was the time.
"Are you having second thoughts on this?" - Emily asked with a hint of sadness in her voice. Alison now knew more than ever what was causing her woman's moody behavior and she decided she'd do it now. She could always give Emily an excuse, but it'd lead to arguing and Ali didn't want to tear this beautiful moment. Instead, Alison decided to take the risk and ask her right here, right now. There would be no better time than this.
"Absolutely not" - She discreetly picked up the velvet box and hid it behind her back. Her initial plan was to sit on the couch beside Emily and only then propose, but her legs were shaking and her unstable knees brought her to the ground.
"Ali, what's wrong?" - Emily noticed her girlfriend's weird behavior.
"Emily..." - She managed without stuttering - "w-will you marry me?" - Her breathing was rapid, her heart was almost exploding inside her chest and Alison thought she was going to faint at any minute.
The brunette's sweet brown eyes widened in surprise and filled with joy. In an abrupt move, she threw herself onto Ali's arms, tackling her to the ground - "Yes! I'll marry you, Alison DiLaurentis!"
Ali smiled in spite of the growing pain on her shoulder.
Next chapter… Emison marriage… but what is life without its (un)pleasant surprises?
