ONCE AGAIN, THERE THEY WERE STANDING IN THE WOODS TALKING AGAIN. Milani, who was still recovering from last night's party kept a hat on top of her head, standing to the side and leaning against a nearby tree while the girls talked. Not very interested in joining in.
Alison wanted us across the street so she could have it out with Toby. Ali had something on him," Spencer revealed.
"Besides being a total perv who peeped in our windows?" Hanna quipped.
"Yeah, something way bigger, and she was threatening to tell everybody. That's why he took the fall for us," Spencer explained.
"It took you over a year to tell us this?" Milani finally joined in on the conversation, folding her arms.
"Yeah, why did you wait until now to tell us this?" Aria agreed and questioned the girl.
"I don't know. Ali made me promise, and... I guess I was scared. I thought if we never talked about that night again, it would just go away," Spencer confessed, shrugging.
"Well, it's not going away. Not unless we toss our phones and join the Navy," Hanna remarked.
Milani looked over at the blonde before pulling her head down, "Look, there's four of us and one freak sending messages. If we just talk to each other like this, I feel like it makes it easier to deal with everything," Emily suggested.
"I think Emily's right." Aria agreed, nodding her head, "There's way too many secrets. We shouldn't do this in the middle of nowhere. We should do it where we can see it every day," Aria proposed.
"Out in the open?" Milani pulled her head up to ask, obviously unconvinced.
"You mean, like, somewhere in school?" Hanna asked.
"No. In town. We should ask if we can put a bench somewhere. And you know what, whoever did this to her, if they're still in Rosewood, we should make them look at it every day, too," Aria added.
"What, you hate the idea?" Spencer looked between the two girls.
"No. No, I just... I had a rough night," Hanna admitted.
"Yeah— same." Milani pulled herself off of the three, "I agree with Aria. Maybe we should find a bench and create a memorial for her. She deserves it, everyone who's mourning her does too." Milani cleared her throat, "We could make it something.. special.. and big."
Just as the girls were to continue their conversation the sound of branches rustled, grabbing their attention. The girls ran towards the sound, looking. "Look," Hanna exclaimed, pointing out Alison's bracelet on the ground. They picked it up.
