She couldn't tell what was real anymore. She was losing it. And she was all alone. Nobody came. She knew it was for the best. She needed help. But she needed people she loved with her. Her husband came almost every day, when he didin't have to deal with his job. But she didn't come. The only person she needed wasn't there. And why wasn't she there? What happened? And why did she mean so much to her? They were just friends, weren't they? But then, why wasn't her best friend there? Probably because they both had their own problems. Or maybe she didn't want to visit her? But why? Someone like her wouldn't do that. Because her best friend was a loving, caring, sweet, compassionate and loyal person.

Every time the staff of the hospital would say "Visitor!" she hoped it was her. She hoped that she'd be in her arms and that they would never be apart again. But every time, it would be her husband. Not that she didn't love him, she did. It was all just confusing. Really confusing. She missed everything. Her friends. They were like family to her, because she didn't have any. She missed her students, she missed teaching at Rosewood High. But then she saw their faces. He dead mother. A dead cop. They wanted to punish her. It was her fault. It was all her fault.

"Alison, you have a vistor!" a voice brought her back to reality. It was Elliot, she thought. And probably, he was going to talk to her about her meds and she was going to be lost in her thoughts about her and why she wasn't there, once again. She walked slowly out of her room. Then she saw a dark-haired girl with who's back was facing her.

"E-Emily?" Ali stuttered.

The girl turned around and smiled. "Ali!"

The two girls embraced. And Ali never wanted to pull away. And neither did Emily.

"I missed you so much, Em!" Alison couldn't get enough of her, like she didn't see her for years.

"I missed you, too." Emily sighed and pulled away. They sat down holding hands.

"Em? Is something wrong?" Ali was concerned.

"Ali..." Emily didn't know how to tell Ali everything that happened.

"Emily? What happened? Is everybody okay?"

"No, um, everything's fine. Everybody is okay." and she decided against telling her. "But we're not here to talk about me. How are you?"

"I'm fine. I guess."

"I am so sorry, Alison. I should've visited you. I should've been there for you. I'm so sorry."

"Em, it's fine. I understand. What's going on with you?"

"It's just... It's everything. My mom, the girls, the cops, they still don't know who killed... Charlotte."

Ali sighed and gave Emily a small smile. "They will find out, Em. And everything will get better."

"Look at us. You're the one with problems here. I'm supposed to comfort you and here you are giving me a pep talk." Alison chuckled.

"Well that's what friends are for." Alison rubbed Emily's shoulder.

"I love you, you know that?" Emily blurted out. She didn't mean to say it, but she did. She was afraid of what Alison would think, because she herself wasn't sure of the way she felt about Ali.

But Ali's smile just grew wider. "And I love you too, with all my heart." Alison embraced Emily and held onto her as tight as possible.

As they pulled away, Emily said "I'll visit more often, okay? Or you can consider leaving this place and coming back home..."

"I appreciate it, Em. But I need help. Charlotte was here, and she got better. And so will I."

"Alright then, I'll come whenever I can. I promise. I won't leave you alone, Ali." Emily smiled.

"Thank you, Emily. You mean so much to me." and the two embraced once again.

But then Emily felt guilty. She knew she had do tell her about "A.D." and Mary Drake, but she didn't know how to do it. Ali was happy, even if she was in a hospital, but there was a smile on her face and it meant the world to Emily. She meant the world to Emily. And nothing was gonna ruin them. Nothing was gonna come between them. Emily just hoped Alison wasn't going to be mad at her. She couldn't lose Ali, because Ali was a part of her. And if she lost her, she didn't know what she would do. Alison Dilaurentis was her happiness, her hope, her best friend. Or something more. Little did Emily know, Ali felt the same way.


Aria knocked on the barn door. Her hands were shaking. She had a panic attack. And the nightmares started again. She went to Hanna, knocked on the door for 10 minutes, no answer. She called Emily, no answer. She thought about going to Ezra, but she didn't have the guts to do it, not after they did, you know... So she went to Spencer Hastings, on of her best friends. Both of them needed a Team Sparia reunion. She hoped Spencer would be there. She hoped someone would. Anyone. She didn't want to be alone. It didn't work well for her. The panic attacks started again. She thought she was in Charlotte's dollhouse or that there was fire all around her or that there was someone in a black hoodie in her room. She needed help. And who was a better helper than a Hastings? Aria was afraid she would turn to alcohol. And she couldn't. If she started drinking, she wouldn't be able to stop. That already happened when she found out Ezra was writing a book about Alison. She wasn't going to do that again.

It took 5 minutes for Spencer to open the door. She looked like she got as much sleep as Aria did. And Aria could barely survive without coffee. That's why she needed Spencer's famous coffee.

"Aria?"

"Spence, hey! Can I come in?"

"Of course." Spencer and Aria walked into the barn. "Sorry, it's a mess in here."

"No worries, Spence."

"Do you want some coffee?"

"Yeah, that'd be great, thanks." Aria sat as Spencer went to get coffee.

Spencer gave Aria her cup. "Ar, are you okay?"

"Yeah. It's just... The past couple of days have been rough."

"Yeah, I know."

They sat in silence.

"Spence? Is everything okay? You know... With you and Caleb."

"Yeah, I don't know. I haven't seen him in days. What do you think? What should I do, Ar?" Spencer was desperate. She needed advice.

"Spence, I don't know. I think all of you just need time."

"Ar, have you seen Toby?"

"No, I haven't. Did something happen between you two?" Aria asked.

"I think I ruined his and Yvonne's relationship. And that is not what I wanted. I just wanted him to be happy."

"You know, if this was 5 years ago, he'd be happy with you, not her."

"Yeah well, that was 5 years ago. This is now."

"Wasn't everything easier then? Yeah, we had to deal with -A, but we had Toby, Caleb, Ezra and Ali with us. Now, everything is falling apart. We're all hiding and avoding each other."

"I know. I agree. Everything wasn't easy back then, but it was definitely easier. I jsut don't know if I can do any of this anymore." Spencer sighed.

Aria hugged her best friend. "It's gonna be okay, Spence."

"I'm so glad you're here, Ar. But I also know you know something I don't about Hanna and Caleb. You don't have to tell me. I don't want you to take sides. You have your own problems.

"Yeah. I do. Unfortunately."

"What's going on?"

"Well, you know, there's just a lot of thins with Ezra and Liam... I kind of cheated on Liam, with Ezra. And I have been avoiding both of them ever since."

"Wow, Ar. Just, wow. And I thought my life was complicated." Aria laughed on Spencer's comment and they embraced.

"Aria? Thank you. For being here. I love you."

Aria smiled. "I love you too, Spencer."

Aria could breathe now. She was Hanna's and Spencer's best friend. The three of them, Ali and Em, were best friends. And that was never going to change. Friendship. That was something the five of them had, and this "A.D." person didn't. They were friends, and they were going to be friends forever. Whatever "A.D." had on them, they had their friendship. They had their forever.
