I sat there with tears streaming down my face. I was alone the guy I was in love with was mad at me and my ex caused it. On top of that I was in jail when I did nothing wrong. Why was this happening to me? What did I ever do? I couldn't take this anymore I just couldn't. I needed out of this cell. I needed out of this life how much longer could I deal with the A thing? Now I think I may still be in love with Jason or was I ever in love with him? I'm so confused maybe Jason and I do have something but I'm in love with Ezra and I always will be. I couldn't deal with this anymore. All of this started when I met Alison. Why did I have to meet her? Couldn't see have just stayed out of my life? Look at where being friends with her go me- I'm in jail. I miss when things were simpler. I was brought out of my thoughts when my mom walked up.
"Hey how are you?" My mom asked with a weak smile on her face.
"Broken. Empty. Numb. I hate this! None of this would've happened if I wasn't ever friends with Ali! I wouldn't know Jason, -A wouldn't be torturing me, I wouldn't of caught dad cheating first hand and then have to keep the secret for a year, I wouldn't ever have to be questioned by the cops, I could just be a normal teenage girl but no I had to get caught up with Alison DiLaurentis and deal with all of this." I said practically screaming, holding back tears.
"Look at me. Aria look at me. There are times that I think if you didn't know Alison everything would be better but it wouldn't. Your dad cheated and if you weren't friends with Ali the only thing that would be different is you wouldn't have known a year before I did. I know it was hard for you to keep the secret but at least you were somewhat prepared for the fallout when I found out. Mike had to watch his 'picture perfect' family fall apart without any warning. He had no clue there was even a problem but you did. Sure Jason cheated on you, broke your heart, and you had to keep it from your friends for a long time but it wasn't all bad right? There were things you enjoyed, if there wasn't you guys wouldn't have been together. Plus now you have Ezra and while I'm okay with you guys dating he still was your teacher so it's a little weird. But you love him and I could tell he made you forget about Jason. As for –A torturing you were handing it. Look if you weren't friends with Ali you wouldn't be friends with Hanna, Spencer, or Emily. So think about that." Ella said the words that Aria had to fight out of her head because she just wanted to blame Ali but she couldn't do that.
"Ella we can go they're letting her out." Ashley said as she walked up to the cell. "They were wrong it just came up with a different IP address."
"Really who?!" Aria asked with her hands clutched on the bars.
"Paige MCcullers." Ashley declared.
"What?!" Emily screamed walking up to Aria's cell clearly startled by the news.
