I've been walking for about thirty minutes now, trying to clear my head. I feel so bad for her. I wish she'd just... Believe that I love her and that I'm not playing games. I decide to turn back around and apologize for leaving. By the time I get there, it's nine o'clock. I walk up to her room and open the door to find her curled up in bed sleeping. I don't want to wake her, so I quietly go over to her and kiss her head. I grab a few pillows and a blanket and head downstairs. I'm going to sleep on the couch, to give her some space for the night. It's hard, but I eventually fall asleep.

Emily's POV

I really do not want to move to get out of bed. I can't believe he's actually gone. It hurts like hell knowing I won't see him again. On top of that, Alison and I got into an argument last night, which I feel horrible about. I know she loves me and is being sincere about her feelings this time. I was just so upset yesterday and overwhelmed by everything. She went for a walk last night and I don't know if she came back. I turn over to find that she definitely is not here. I sigh and run my hand through my hair. I probably screwed everything up. I look at my clock and find that it's only 3:00am. I can't sleep anymore right now. I get out of bed and decide to go downstairs to watch some T.V.

Once I get downstairs I am relieved to see that she actually came back. I smile to myself. I go over to the couch and lay down behind her as quietly as I can, sure not to wake her. I snuggle myself under the blanket with her and wrap my arm tightly around her waist and rest my chin on her shoulder. I feel her start to move and her body turns to face me, curling up next to my body. She's still asleep. I decide not to turn the T.V. On because I don't want to wake her. So I just cuddle under the blanket and bring her closer to me.

Alison's POV

I wake up the next morning in a way more comfortable position than I remember. I feel a pair of arms around me and panic. I remember falling asleep alone last night, but when I look at the arm I instantly know whose it is. I smile and lift my head up and of course, it is her right next to me, sound asleep. I look at my phone and see that it's 9:30am. Pam must be at work or out somewhere because on the coffee table she's left some money for food for us. I turn back to Emily and caress her face with my pointer finger and lay my head against hers. It must have tickled or something because not long after I did it, her eyes fluttered open.

Alison: "hi."

Emily: "hi."

Alison: "I'm sorry... About last night. I shouldn't have left."

Emily: shaking her head. "No. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that stuff. I know you love me and have changed. So I'm sorry."

Alison: "I know you were-are hurting. So All is forgiven."

Emily: "You too." She kisses me and then pulls back, running her hand through my hair. "How's your head?"

Alison: "It's better, a little head ache here and there, but it's better."

Emily: "Good."

Alison: "The important question here is how are YOU doing?"

Emily: "I'm getting there.. It's only been a day. But I'm getting there. Of course it hurts, but I'm trying to keep it together."

I nod my head. She is one strong person.

Alison: "It will get better with time... You can talk to me about any of this you know? Anything you want to talk about or do, we'll do it. I promise." After I say this, I kiss her hand. "But for right now, you need to eat something. You haven't eaten anything since the sleepover."

I stand up and reach my hand out to her. She slowly gets up and grabs my hand. We make our way to the kitchen and she sits down on the stool as I walk to the cupboards to look for something to make her. I find a box of pancake mix. Perfect. As I'm making the pancakes Emily comes up behind me and wraps her arms around my torso and leans her chin on my shoulder, making me giggle.

Emily: "You know you didn't have to cook.. I would have been fine with a bowl of cereal."

Alison: "Mmmm... I know. But you need to eat something other than cereal. You didn't eat anything yesterday so I'm sure you're starving." I say as I put the pancakes on a plate.

She unwraps her arms and walks over to the other side of the counter. The next thing I know, I feel flour hit the side of my face. I turn to see Emily staring at me with an accomplished smirk on her face. I'm glad she's having fun, she needs the distraction.

Alison: I smirk back at her. "Oh it is so on Fields!" I grab a handful of flour and throw it at her and run.

After a while of goofing off and throwing flour at each other, we're a mess. We decide to eat first before we each take a shower. After I get out of the shower, I get dressed and Emily and I try to figure out what to do with the rest of our day. I've already told my dad that Emily would be needing me for a few days, so I'm all hers. Surprisingly, we haven't gotten anything from -A since the other night. So we're able to stay a bit calmer than usual.

Alison: "Hmm. Do you feel like hanging out with the girls? I'm sure they'd love to see how you're doing."

Emily: She takes a moment to think, then nods her head. "Yeah. I guess that'd be good. Maybe we can meet them in a while at the Brew?"

Alison: "That sounds like a plan." I say and peck her lips. "I'll text them to let them know."

After I text them, Emily and I cuddle on the couch and try to find something on T.V. since it's raining outside. Soon enough we're both asleep on the couch.

We both must have been exhausted. We napped for a little over three and a half hours. Once I realize the time I gently shake Em awake.

Alison: "Em, babe. We're gonna be late meeting the girls. It's already 3:30."

Emily: "Mmmm.. Okay. I'm up." Her eyes open and she stretches.

I do the same and stand up grabbing her hands in the process.

Alison: "I'll drive this time."

She nods her head and we run to the car. The rain is still coming down pretty hard. We arrive at the Brew ten minutes later. The girls are already sitting on the couch waiting for us. Emily and I order and then sit with them.

Spencer: "Hey Em.. How're you?"

Emily: "I'm... Holding up. You know, as best as I can be I guess." She gives her a weak smile because the topic of her dad is obviously still very touchy.

Alison: "So... What have you guys been up to?" I quickly butt in to change the subject.

The girls notice and I get the hint to not talk about it anymore.

Hanna: "Well, Caleb and I have had time to rekindle things. I'm so happy he's back." She says with a wide grin.

Alison: "That's great Han! I'd live to finally meet him."

Hanna: "Definitely. I know he'd like to meet you too."

I smile at Hanna and Spencer speaks.

Spencer: "Yeah Ali, I'm sure Toby would like to see you again too."

Alison: "Of course! I'd like to be introduced to the people in your lives that I haven't met yet."

Aria: "I was... Thinking about getting back together with Jake. I mean I think Ezra and I are really done this time. I don't want that relationship back."

Emily: Smiling: "Good for you Ar."

As Emily takes a drink of her coffee, her eyes go wide at the sight she sees at the door. I furrow my eyebrows then follow her gaze. Of course. She, Has to be here. I feel Emily grab my hand and I can't help but to feel jealous. I think Emily can see it because she squeezes my hand tighter and leans in closer to me.
