I quickly grab Spencer's keys and make my way to the door.

Alison: "Spence I really need to go to her! Please let me take your car!?" I frantically asked.

She quickly nods without hesitation and I run to the car. I speed my way to her house, not caring about the speed limit. Once I make it to her house I walk up to her door and knock. Pam opens the door and my heart breaks. Her face is red and puffy and her hair is a mess.

Alison: "Pam... I heard the news... I'm so sorry.. Is Emily here?"

She nods and hugs me before motioning me to go to the staircase. I go up the stairs and take a breath before opening the door.

Alison: "Em?" I ask softly and enter her room. My heart shatters at the sight. She's curled up on her bed, sobbing while clutching multiple pictures of her an her dad. I try to keep my emotions in for her, but I can't hold my tears back.

I quickly make my way over to her and wrap my arms around her tightly. I just let her cry on my shoulder as I hold her. We didn't talk for hours. She just sobbed as I cried with her. I ran my fingers through her hair and she clutched my hand in a death grip with one hand and wrapped her other arm tightly around me, holding on for dear life. She has been here for me since the accident and taking care of me, so now I'm going to take care of her as much as I can. She soon falls asleep in my arms at about 3:00pm. When I'm sure she's fully asleep, I untangle her arms carefully and give her kiss on the forehead whispering an 'I love you' before exiting her room. Once down stairs, I find Pam sitting on the couch with a blank stare, covered in a blanket. She looks and sees me coming down the stairs and gives me a weak smile.

Pam: "Are you leaving sweetie? You can stay if you'd like."

Alison: I give her the best smile I can muster right now. "I'd love to stay... But I have to go home right now. My father is back and I need to talk to him. But I will come back later... if that's okay with you of course?"

Pam: "That'd be just fine... She needs you guys right now... Especially you. I know She'd appreciate it if you stayed."

I give her a hug and tell her I will be back soon. I head home to see my father for the first time in years. Once I get home, I park in Spencer's drive way since I had her car, and walk back home. I shot Spencer a text letting her know I dropped it off. I unlock the door and am greeted by my dad with a big hug. Both of us are teary eyed. We sit and talk for a while before I tell him about Emily. He is hesitant to let me go back, but eventually gives in when I tell him about her dad. I give him a hug and then head back to Emily's in one of his cars. I arrive at around 6:30pm. Once I enter I head right to Emily's room. I open the door and find Emily sitting on her window seat with her knees to her chest and her head against the wall, staring out the window. I let out a soft sigh and approach her. She notices me and gives me a very weak smile.

Alison: "hey." I say softly.

Emily: "hi."She answers, barely audible.

She holds her arms out, signaling that she wants a hug. I smile and give her a tight hug. I pull back, but not fully. I keep hold of her hands and sit next to her and move a piece if hair out of her face and behind her ear.

Alison: "How're you?" I squeeze my eyes shut. God what a stupid question Alison! Good going! "God I'm sorry... I don't really know how to deal with these situations.. I'm sorry!"

Emily: she squeezes my hand. "It's fine Alison... To be honest... I'm a wreck... I miss him Ali... I can't believe he's really gone..." Her voice cracks and tears form in her eyes.

I pull her close and lay my head on hers. I wipe her tears away and caress her cheek.

Alison: "I know Em... But we're all here for you... Aria, Hanna, Spencer... And Me. Your mom is letting me stay here with you for a while... But if you'd rather be alone I'd completely understand. Just let me know. I won't be upset I promise."

Emily leans in and gives me a short, chaste kiss.

Emily: "I know you are.. And I'm thankful for you guys, but right now I don't want everyone here.. Feeling sorry for me. I'd like to have time to think... Alone-"

Alison: I interrupted her. "That's fine. I'll go and let you be alone. Text me if you need anything alright?" I give her a kiss and go to get up. "I love you."

I turn to leave but she grabs my arm.

Emily: "You never let me finish... I want time to think alone... with you. No one else. I just... Need you right now. I don't want you to leave me." She says quickly.

I'm relieved that she wants me to stay. I'd be up all night thinking about her.

Alison: "Don't worry Killer.. I'm not going anywhere unless you ask me to. I'll never leave you. I promise."

I cup her face in my hands and try to give her a chaste kiss, but when I go to pull away, she deepens it and pulls me closer. She wraps her arms around my waist and pulls me down to her lap. My legs are hanging over the side of the window seat and my hands are still cupping her face. Her grip on my waist tightens and she pulls me closer, if that's even possible. After about fifteen minutes of intense kissing, we pull away out of breath. Both of us have our eyes closed and my hands are firmly encircling her neck while hers are wrapped protectively around my waist. I lean down and place a small kiss on her lips and set my head on hers.

Alison: "I love you Emily... So much."

Emily: "I love you too."

After we exchanged 'I loves you's' once again, it was silent for a few minutes except for our breathing.

Emily: "Thank you."

Alison: "You really don't have to thank me. You took care if me, now it's my turn to do my job. Remember?"

Emily: "How could I forget?"

I smile remembering us having this same conversation last night, just having opposite roles.

Alison: "You know everything is going to be alright, right? Because it is. You can get through this. It'll be hard but I'm gonna be here with you every step if the way, never leaving your side. I'm gonna help you and so are the others. They're worried sick about you. I'm so sorry that this happened Em. I really am. You don't deserve this at all. I hate seeing you so... Upset and down. It might be a long, dark road ahead and yeah you may be scared of what it's gonna be like without him, but always remember that I'm here for you. You can hold me tight and I'll be there to hold you. Forever, remember?"

By the time I'm finished saying this, she Is sobbing on my shoulder. I wrap my arms around her tight an let my chin rest on her shoulder.

Emily: "But I-I don't th-think that I-I can h-handle this... It's t-too m-much."

I pull back and tilt her chin to look at me.

Alison: "Listen to me! You can handle this! You can pull through because you're strong! You can do anything, including this. Like I said, I'll be here every step of the way. You're strong enough to get through this even if you don't think so.. Do not, give up okay?" I say sternly.

Emily: her crying has calmed a little. "I don't think that I am that strong! I know you say that you'll be there for me, but how am I supposed to know that you won't leave again?!" She's now angry and upset. "How do I know that as soon as it starts getting worse, you won't leave us again?! Alison I couldn't take it if you left once again! I! Love! You! I don't know how I'm supposed to know when you're playing games with my feelings again!"

Wow... She really thinks is leave her or even hurt her?! I thought I told her that would never happen!?

Alison: I'm now standing up with my arms across my chest, not believing what she has just said. I know she's hurting right now, but she knows that I wouldn't do any of that! "Emily! You know God damn well how much I love you! I would never be that person again! Especially not with you! You are the number one reason why I am not on the run anymore! You're the only reason that I've learned to change!" I can't hold it anymore, tears just fall down my face. "Look, I understand you're hurting! But please do not doubt my love for you! Because to be honest, you're the only one who has my heart, who has ever had my heart! So if you want time to think about us, then I'll go out for a while... I'm gonna take a walk. I have my cell on me."

Emily: "Alison..."

Alison: "I love you." I quickly make my way over to her and give a kiss on her forehead before quickly exiting the room. I try to hide my tears but they just don't stop. Pam is already in bed so she hasn't seen me crying. I make my way to the door and quietly go out, locking it behind me with the key that Pam lent to me. I can't help but to cry. It hurts like hell knowing I just walked out of there leaving the conversation as is.
