A/N: So I know that this last chapter is short... I literally had no idea how to end this, so I did like a time skip epilogue at the end of this last chapter... I'm sorry if it doesn't meet expectations :( One of the things I need to work on as a writer is endings. My mushy emotional A/N will be at the bottom of this chapter VVV
Disclaimer: I do NOT own PLL!
PLEASE enjoy, favorite, follow and REVIEW!
"How'd it go with your dad after I left?" Ali asked, cuddling into Emily's side on their bed.
"It was nice, getting to talk to him again," Emily answered, her hand dragging against Ali's skin. Ali shivered slightly at the feeling, and curled more into Emily's side.
"That's good," Ali commented sleepily, her eyes starting to droop closed.
"Yep," Emily answered, her hand still stroking Ali's arm. Ali sighed through her nose, and then breathed in Emily's scent. She loved this. She loved this, and she loved Emily.
The next morning was Sunday, and they were having girls day at Hanna's place. Since Spencer lived so close to Hanna, Ali and Emily left extra early to avoid paying for lunch.
"Wow, first ones here," Hanna commented, her eyebrows raised as she let Ali and Emily into the apartment. "Broke from buying each other gifts already?" She gestured the necklace that Ali gave Emily, who happened to be wearing it.
Ali rolled her eyes. "Actually, the guy who works my shift with me at work caught me making lunch for me and Em, so I had to actually put money in the cash register for it. Which means that now, I actually have to pay for it every time."
"Aw life is so hard for you," Hanna teased, getting a laugh out of Emily and another eye roll from Alison.
"Look, lay off the teasing and I'll do the same, okay?" Ali suggested, crossing her arms.
"Uh, no way. You are way too easy to tease nowadays. I'm not just gonna stop," Hanna exclaimed, laughing.
"Well, you're in for a rough day," Emily joked, moving past both of the blondes and into the kitchen get water.
"She's right," Ali insisted, dropping onto Hanna's couch. "I'm already feeling a bucketful of Hefty Hanna jokes ready to just explode out."
"Oh come on, those jokes aren't even funny anymore," Hanna argued, shaking her head.
The door flew open and Spencer rushed in. "How the hell did you get here before me?"
"Someone is slacking!" Emily called out, smirking. Ali smirked as well.
"Well at least Aria's the one who has to go get food. Someone call her," Spencer commanded. "Oh and hey, I thought it wasn't fair if you two got to come together!"
"We live together, Spencer, and it costs a whole lot more money for us to take two cars to the same location," Alison said, rolling her eyes.
"I'm just saying," Spencer said, shrugging and taking out her phone to dial Aria's number. Once she picked up, Spencer hit the speaker button. "Sucker! I want Mexican! Votes?"
"Seriously? I left early, how did Ali and Em beat me?" Aria exclaimed.
"I asked the same question," Spencer admitted.
"What? They beat you too? Geez. Alright, so Mexican or do we have another vote?" Aria asked, chuckling.
"Mexican all the way!" Hanna exclaimed.
"No," Ali whined, "I wanted Thai!"
Everyone looked at Emily. Ali gave her girlfriend a very pointed look, and Emily raised her eyebrows. "Umm…"
"Come on, Em! Enchiladas and tacos!" Spencer exclaimed in her best imitation Mexican accent.
Alison gave Emily her best pouty face, and Emily gave a momentarily defeated look. "I need an answer guys, I'm pulling up to the Mexican! Frankly, I want Thai."
"Two and two, Emily you better hurry!" Hanna teased.
"Thai!" Emily exclaimed finally, laughing and rolling her eyes.
"Yes!" Ali exclaimed. Emily rolled her eyes again and went to sit down by Alison, who grabbed her arm and pulled her closer. "I win!"
"So not fair," Spencer grumbled, hanging up the phone. "Damn Emily, you are so whipped."
"Am not!" Emily exclaimed, shaking her head.
"Oh come on, babe, you know that you are so whipped," Ali insisted, laughing and kissing Emily's cheek.
"Ugh, I guess," Emily admitted, leaning her head on Alison's shoulder. "I'm so gonna get you back later."
"I look forward to it," Ali joked. "Yes, I am so ready for this Thai!"
"I hate you both," Hanna groaned, sitting down in one of the chairs around the small dining table.
"Aw, you know you love us," Emily teased, taking as sip of her water and curling against her girlfriend.
"I think you two have enough love between the two of you, you don't need any from me," Hanna insisted, laughing and shaking her head.
"Don't hate us because we're in love," Ali commanded.
"You two are officially crazy," Spencer declared.
OMNISCIENT
Time goes by really fast when life is going good. A week can pass, a month. Maybe a summer, or a year. A lot of things can happen in that time, too. A couple might get to enjoy their Christmas together, a Valentine's Day. Everyone has a few laughs, a few cries, but when everything goes good enough, things end up ultimately better than they were before.
And that's how things went between Emily and Alison. Emily got her teaching job at Rosewood High, and Alison started working on starting her own business. They had a few fights throughout the months, but they stayed strong. Paige left for Philadelphia when she got a job there, relieving the couple of ex-girlfriend drama.
So ultimately, a year and a half of being together later, their lives were even better than they'd been before. Just as in love as ever, and ready to take another step in their lives.
They both knew that marriage was what they wanted. They loved each other, so why shouldn't they get married? What Alison didn't know, although she strongly suspected it, was that Emily was sitting in her classroom at school, while her students were taking a test, fiddling with a ring box in her hands.
That afternoon, they had a little date planned. They tried to have a date night every week, and tonight it was on a Thursday. Although it might be sort of simple or plain to propose on a small date on a Thursday night, Emily knew that Alison would love it either way. And sure enough, Ali could care less when she got proposed to. She was ready to marry Emily, and that's all she wanted.
When Emily left work that day, her heart was racing. Today was they day that she and Alison were going to take a huge step in their lives.
Emily had known from practically the first time she'd bumped into Ali, literally, that somehow, they would end up getting together and being together forever.
So that night, at the end of her date night with Ali, she procured the box and slid it across the table. When Ali opened it, happy tears in her eyes, Emily posed the question, "Alison DiLaurentis… will you let me love you… forever?"
^.^
