Ok so I am going to try and update this regularly but the chapters will probably be short.
Emily sat at the brew drinking coffee. It was Saturday and Emily had just got done with her swim practice. Ali was holding an SAT prep class so Emily had some time to herself. She had just looked up from her to do list when she saw a blonde walk into the brew. She ordered a coffee and a few minutes later the barista called out
"Mocha latte for Hanna"
Emily got up walking over to Hanna.
"Hanna Marin?" She asked standing behind the blondes back.
She turned and it was indeed Hanna.
"It's not Hanna Marin anymore, It's Hanna Rivers" she said coolly. It had been 5 years with no contact whatsoever. They couldn't just go back to being besties instantaneously.
"You and Caleb got married, that's great." Emily said hoping to break through this wall between them.
"Yeah" Hanna scoffed rolling her eyes. There was a time that Emily would have pried but with the chill between them she didn't feel like it was right.
"How have you been?" Hanna asked typing away at her phone.
"Good. I'm the swim coach at Rosewood High. Ali and I are living together." Emily trailed off when she figured hanna wasn't paying attention.
"So you're not married?" Hanna asked and it was almost an accusation.
"No?" Emily said.
"Well I got that text and I don't know, thought maybe "AF" was Alison Fields." Hanna said.
"Why would you think that?" Emily snapped. "It wasn't by the way, I was standing right next to her when we both got the text"
"I thought maybe it was her way of trying to get the gang back together, since she's the one that broke us apart."
"We were all guilty" Emily said
"Are the others here?" Hanna asked "The party is today"
"You're the first I've seen" Emily said.
"Do you think they'll come?" Hanna asked.
"If our friendship ever meant anything they will." Emily said.
"It's so weird to not know anything about Aria and Spencer's lives. What do you think they have been up to?"
"Rumor has it, Aria ended up in India" a voice said behind them. They turned to see Aria. She had golden brown out of control waves and was wearing a tight pair of jeans with and oversized patterned shirt.
The three girls just stared at each other not sure if they should hug or not.
Aria finally sat down.
"I've been living in India for the last two years. I'm working as a photographer."
"That sounds awesome" Emily said
"Yeah, really exotic" Hanna chimed in.
Hanna and Emily then filled Aria in on their lives. After about an hour of chatting, the conversation lulled.
"You guys got the text too didn't you?" Aria asked hesitantly
"Yeah" Hanna said nervously playing with her wedding ring.
"Of course" Emily muttered.
"'A' wants us all together in Rosewood" Aria said.
"It's not Charlotte" Emily said "Charlotte committed suicide a few years ago. This is someone new"
"I don't know if that makes me feel better or worse" Aria said.
Just then Ali walked in.
"Hey" she said weakly.
They all offered small smiles in hello.
"I guess we should head over to the party" Ali said.
The four of them headed over to the hall that had been reserved for the party. They waited at the back of the hall while Dr. Sullivan conversed with other former patients. Finally she headed over to them.
"It's so great to see you girls" she said smiling. "I often thought of you and wondered what you were up to."
They each talked to her telling them about their lives.
"Dr. Sullivan" Ali said when the girls were done speaking. "Did you invite Spencer? I haven't seen her."
Dr. Sullivan paused before speaking.
"I invited her but I didn't expect her to come."
"Why not?" Hanna asked
"I'm not at liberty to discuss what happened to Spencer." She said slipping away before they could question her.
"Ok that was ominous" Aria said.
"We have to find her" Emily said
"How?" Hanna countered "we haven't seen or spoken to her in 5 years. She could be anywhere, doing anything"
Just then all four of their phones beeped.
Roses are red,
These liars are blue,
I know where Spencer is,
Bet you wish you did too.
A.F.
What are the liars going to do now? Don't forget to comment and let me know your theories.
