Rosewood, 2009
"Why are you so interested in me going to that stupid sleepover?" Lizzie Howard groaned as her brother tried to take her out of bed.
"Because I love you, and I love Alison" he repeated for who knows how many times "And I want you two to get along. Plus you need more friends"
"We already hung out, they are not the type of people I am friends with" the blonde reminded, still refusing to get out of her comfy bed "Just because she's your girlfriend doesn't mean that we have to get along"
"Once. You hung out once" Liam sighed, unaware of the guilty expression that had taken over his sister's face "Come on Beth, do it for me? Please?"
"You know I'm immune to your puppy face"
"I'll do your homework for one week" he offered, at which Elizabeth just raised an eyebrow "Two weeks"
"Deal" she finally accepted, getting up "You know, eventually I would've said yes without anything in exchange, you just couldn't wait"
"I hate you so much" he tiredly said.
"You love me" the youngest —by three minutes— twin assured, with a sarcastic smile "Are you going somewhere tonight?"
"I'll probably go out with the guys" he carelessly said "Try to not kill the girls, please?"
"Can't promise anything" she hissed, tilting her head as her brother just laughed and shook his head.
"I'll see you tomorrow, have fun!"

Lizzie awkwardly entered Spencer Hastings' barn besides Alison Dilaurentis. She could feel the shocked looks from the rest of the girl group on her, as they didn't know she would be there.
"Guys, you already know my friend Lizzie" the blonde Dilaurentis girl spoke "She's joining us tonight"
"Weren't you two fighting yesterday?" Spencer Hastings confusedly asked, looking between the two girls.
"Yeah, you had quite a big fight" Aria Montgomery awkwardly added.
"That was yesterday guys" she obviously replied "Today is a new day. Hanna, give Beth the cup"
"Lizzie" she spoke for the first time, correcting Alison "Only my brother calls me Beth"
"Whatever" she carelessly replied, taking the cup filled with alcohol that Hanna handed her "Here, drink"
"I actually don't drink" the Howard girl commented, anxiously scratching her arm.
"Today you do honey" she insisted, the new girl finally taking the cup but not drinking right away "Great, now take a seat"
Feeling all eyes on her, she sat besides Emily Fields, that being the only place available, the girl welcoming her with a sweet smile.
Lizzie didn't get along with any of Alison's friends, but out of the girls, Emily was the one she could actually stand. When Rosewood's it girl wasn't looking, the Fields girl took the cup from Lizzie's hands.
"You don't have to drink it" she whispered to her, and this time it was the blonde who smiled to her.
"Ali, did you download the new Beyoncé?" Hanna Marin wondered.
"I'm loving her new video" Emily Fields excitedly commented.
"Yeah, me too" Lizzie added with a tiny smile.
"Maybe a little too much, guys" Alison shot them, with a mischievous smile. The girls looked at each other and quickly downed their heads, feeling uncomfortable with Ali's comment "Your turn Aria, drink up"

"I don't know mom, I heard her scream so I went looking for her, but I couldn't find her anywhere" Spencer Hastings answered her mother's question in the edge of tears. After the Hastings girl had woken the rest of them telling about Alison's disappearance, they girls quickly called all of their parents, including the Dilaurentis.
"Honey, have you talked to your brother?" Emma Howard asked her daughter while the rest of the girls kept repeating to their respective families what had happened.
"Not yet, I thought he would be coming with you" she admitted "Did he stay at home?"
"He didn't come home yesterday either" Oliver Howard worriedly told his daughter.
"He told me that he was going out with his friends" the youngest one replied, starting to feel anguish "Did you try Noel or Sean?"
"We called them" Emma started saying, feeling her eyes fill with tears "They said that Liam wasn't with them last night. They said that he went with Alison"
