Little White Lies

Thirteen

Caroline smiled as she looked at Kelsey. She knew it won't belong till Alexander meets Kelsey. She felt her phone buzz causing her to smile. She read the message and gasped. "No." She said as she looked out the window to see Alexander's car. "Oh no."

"Caroline, you have a guest."

"Coming."

Alexander smiled at the baby as he started playing with her just for her to giggle. Caroline stopped in the door way to see him and Kelsey playing. "She's beautiful." He said.

"She's mine." Caroline said from behind him.

Alexander looked at her shocked. Caroline knew he would leave till he picked Kelsey up and walked up to her. "She's perfect. Just like her mother."

Caroline smiled as she kissed him. She pulled away smiling. "Thank you for not leaving."

"Caroline, I want to be with you. I'll even adopt Kelsey."

"One step at a time."

At school, Caroline smiled as she was helping decorate the gym. "So how was the date with Alexander."

"It went well." She tells Aria. "He met Kelsey this morning and I told him the truth."

"How did he take it?"

"He wants to adopt Kelsey." She tells him. "I guess he actually wants to be with me."

Aria smiled as she hugged her. "Aria." They heard Ella say causing them to see another woman.

"Simone?" Aria said causing Caroline to walk away, but was stopped by Ella.

"Caroline, if you ever need help with Kelsey let me know."

"I'm glad everyone is offering help. Jessica DiLaurentis sent me a letter offering help." She said as Aria looked at her causing the blonde to give her a look that said later.

"I would love to meet her."

"Soon." Caroline said as she saw Alexander talking to Sean. "I think I will be needed."

Ella watched her walk over to Alexander and share a kiss with him. She shook her head smiling. "Hey, is your mom okay with watching Kelsey?"

"Yeah." Caroline said. "Her date understands and he is wanting to know mom more before meeting us."

"That's good." He said.

Caroline smiled as he walked away with a cut out of Obama. She saw Hanna walk by causing her to walk over to Spencer. "Need help?" She asked.

"Yes."

That night, Caroline was dancing with Alexander. Spencer saw her as she had to tell her that she believes that Ian is A. "Caroline, I need to speak to you." She said causing Caroline to look at her.

"I'm enjoying my date." She said. "Can this wait?"

Spencer grabbed her and dragged her away. Alexander wondered what was up and followed them. He stopped and hid in a spot near where they were at. "I think Ian is A, but I need proof."

"How are you going to do that?" Caroline asked.

"Aria, I need you to get the key to his office when he arrives." She said.

Alexander wondered who this A is, but he knew one thing, he had to keep Caroline safe. When he went to leave, his phone buzzed causing him to look to see who it was. The id was blocked.

I see you want to protect Caroline, but are you sure your able to protect her successfully from me, Alexander? -A

"Alexander?"

He looked at her. "Who's A?"

Caroline's face paled as she looked at Spencer who was shocked herself. "Someone that killed Ali and that is threatening us with blackmail." Caroline said. "Why?"

"I just got A message from this person."

Caroline and Spencer looked at the message. The blonde felt Alexander pulling her into his arms as Spencer looked at Aria knowing that Alexander will be getting messages more often. "He just got on A's list." Aria said. "This is not good."

"No." Spencer said. "All this is because he wants to keep her safe."

Aria looked to see Caroline and Alexander dancing. The blonde's head was rested on Alexander's chest causing them to sigh. "Who else will A put on his or her list?"

"I don't know, but right now, we need to put a stop to A."

Spencer nodded as Aria went to the coat rack and waited for the chance to get the keys. Caroline looked at Alexander and smiled. "You don't have to worry about me..."

"Caroline, I will worry about you because I care about you. Whoever A is, I will keep you safe from that person."

Caroline smiled as they shared a kiss. The blonde saw a drunk Emily and looked at Alexander. "Hey, I think I'm needed."

He looked to see Emily drunk. "Come on, I'll wait in the drive way."
~~
Caroline sat waiting with Alexander. When she saw Hanna, she had to ask. "What happened?"

"Emily thinks Maya moved on." Hanna explains.

Caroline nodded till Hanna saw something under the newspaper. "Spencer, has your laptop been here the whole time."

Spencer grabbed it and started searching causing Caroline, Alexander and Hanna to look. "The video is gone." She said.

"Spencer, is that a new file?"

Spencer opened it and saw a picture of Alison. Watch your backs. I didn't. -A
