"You what?" Alison asks. Her face is pale and she is barely able to form the words.
Emily sighs and decides to talk since Alison doesn't seem to be talking any time soon.
"I know I owe you a big explanation." She starts to say shifting closer. "I had a wet dream about you. And, believe me, it was a really really hot but umm... next day I don't know what came onto me but I suddenly felt dirty and embarrassed because of it, so I kind of avoided you."
"That's why you didn't tell me?" Alison says annoyed. "You..."
"I was going to." Emily interrupts. "But then I remembered that someone decided to give us a "sex break". So I didn't want you to think I made that up
so we could have more sex. It would feel like I was pushing you to do it. And I love you so much, I didn't want you to think that I'm with you just for the sex -which, by the way, is awesome- but the real reason why we're together is because you're the love of my life." Emily says looking at the blonde in the eye. "You've always been. And deep down I know you know it."
Alison is quiet time enough to make Emily believe she has turned into a statue but, just when the brunette is about to snap her fingers in front of her face and wait for any kind of reaction, Alison's head snaps into her direction. Eyes filled with tears.
"I thought you were cheating on me. I thought you were sleeping with someone else. I thought I had lost you. Do you have any idea how that made me feel?" Her words are filled with venom and Emily herself is about to cry. "I was so mad at you for being with another girl. But I was also mad at myself for letting it happen. I know I've never been the perfect girlfriend or the girlfriend you deserve. But I'm selfish. I've always been and I just wanted you all to myself. The thought of you with someone else made my stomach twist in a painful way you could not imagine. That's why I left school. Later, when I got home, I called my dad to tell him I was sick and then I heard your voice. You were looking for me and the pain returned. Then I felt asleep but I was awoken by the sound of a door opening. Then you were in my bedroom and I was still so mad to you, it took me a lot of strength not to turn around and scream at you."
"Wait." Emily cuts in. "So when I came in here..."
"Yes." Alison says firmly. "I was awake."
Emily swallows hard and decides to let the blonde finish talking.
"When you left, I felt myself crying again. I was crying really hard and I couldn't stop it. I remembered everything about you. Your smile, your eyes, your laugh, the way you looked at me like no one else ever did... Then the crying got harder. I even screamed. I didn't even care if my neighbors could hear me."
'That must have been what Spencer heard' Emily thinks putting the pieces together.
"When I was able to calm down myself, I received a text. I thought it would be you with some excuse but when I read it... it made me go crazy."
"What was it?" Emily asks worried.
"What was it" Alison says laughing sarcastically. "Well, the first one was from you." She says sending a death glare to Emily.
"What? I didn't send you anything! My last text was..."
"The second one-" the blonde interrupts "-was from -A and then I figured out, bitch may have sent it from your phone. What were you doing after leaving my house?"
"I felt asleep." Emily reply comes almost in a whisper.
Alison looks at the brunette and hands her her phone. As Emily reads, her eyes open wide. She can't believe what she's seeing.
''Can't wait for tonight ;) -Emily'' and there is an attachment.
When Emily opens it, she can't help but gasp. It's a picture of her and Sydney, in the locker room, and she seems to be kissing Sydney's neck in a not-so-friendly way. There's also the date and the hour the photo is supposed to be taken and it matches the time when Alison left school.
''Alison, I…''
''Now open the next text.'' Alison demands.
''Sweet Emily seems to be having fun. Jealous much? –A''
''I swear this is not me. It is photo shopped or something! I would never ever do that to you. First of all, because I don't love anyone else but you. Second of all, because I wouldn't kiss Sydney that way even if they paid me. Third of all…''
''Emily.'' The blonde says putting a hand on the brunette's lap. ''I understand. At first, I thought it was really you and that you sent me that thinking it was sent to Sydney, but when –A texted me… I realized I just had fell into an –A trap. And I felt powerless and stupid and I just sat there and…''
''And pressed your legs to your chest, buried your head on your knees and cry.'' Emily says finishing Alison's sentence.
''How do you know?'' Alison asks worried.
''I saw you.'' Emily says sighing. ''From Spencer's window. They called me so I could see what was happening. They were all so worried about you, me included.''
Alison nods and they remain silent for a couple of minutes until Emily realizes something.
''Shit!'' She says taking out her phone.
''What's wrong?'' The blonde asks worried.
''Spencer. You kind of… threw a knife to her.'' The swimmer says biting her lip, not knowing how the blonde will react.
''What?'' Alison says in a whisper while her face is going paler as she realizes the whole situation. ''Oh, fuck! Was she the one running around my house?''
''Yes.'' Emily says looking at her feet. ''And she was there because she was helping me.''
''Helping you? From what?''
''From you.'' Emily says meeting her gaze. ''I mean, not you. But, yes you.''
To say Alison is confused right now would be a huge misunderstanding. She is beyond confused.
''I mean, I kind of... sneaked into your house. But then I regretted it and I was going to leave but you came downstairs and I had to hide. And the girls kind of sent Spencer to ''rescue me''.''
''You had to be rescued? From me?'' Alison is hurt by those words but Emily's comforting hand reassures her.
''I didn't want you to be angrier at me.''
Alison nods and hugs Emily really tight.
''Okay, from now on, we will explain everything to each other, okay? I can't believe I'm about to say this but no more secrets.'' Alison says caressing Emily's face.
''I can't believe the Alison DiLaurentis is actually saying 'no more secrets'.'' Emily says playfully.
''Oh shut up!'' Alison says hitting the brunette lightly on the shoulder. ''I love you.'' She says suddenly.
''I love you too'' Emily says leaning forward and pressing her lips to the blonde's.
''Okay, we're going to check on Spencer and later I will break that stupid 'sex break' thing we have.'' She says before leaning into Emily's ear and whispering. ''And you're going to scream my name and beg for more until you are voiceless.''
Then, she bites her ear softly and get up, holding her hand for Emily to take. And the brunette knows that later, after checking on Spencer, Alison is going to pay revenge and she's going to tease her until her whole body soars. But, she thinks she will be able to take it.
Sorry for the wait! I've been pretty busy. This is the last chapter. If you have new ideas for me, leave reviews and I'll work on them as soon as possible. Thanks!
