"I was afraid she wouldnt get it done in time for the memorial" said aria pushing a giant crate into spencers living room. "And this is someone from your moms gallery" said hannah. "Where is your mom?" asked emily. "Theres an apartment above the gallery shes staying at, for now" said aria. "How is your mom?" asked lizzy. "Shes okay, i think" said aria. "Its kinda weird isnt it your mom moving out" said hannah "yeah, like my dad shouldve left, thats what youd expect" said aria. "Aria." said spencer as hannah glared at her. "Sorry, i didnt mean it like that, the whole thing just sucks" said aria. "I know" said hannah. "Did anyone call shelly leonard" asked emily. "Done, and i told her if she plays anything depressing i will kick in her chello," said spencer. They all laughed. "And the program?'' asked aria. "Almost done, we should finish it before allis brother gets here." said spencer. "Wait jasons coming here?" said lizzy. "Yeah. hes helping out with the memorial." said aria. "Right yeah okay." said lizzy, she hadnt seen him since alisons funeral what would she say to him she wondered, the last time they talked he said he missed her. "Whens he coming?" asked aria. "Tonight, and he wants to meet us tomorrow." said spencer. "Gosh i barely remember jason" said hannah. "We didnt know him he was just allis older brother." said aria. "Behind close door." said spencer. "Yeah" said lizzy barely paying attention. "And his punk rock music radiating through the floor boards" said emily they all laughed. Lizzy remembered that awful music.

Flash back
Lizzy was laying on jasons chest they were a little drunk and his music was radiating through the room. "What is this music" laughed lizzy. "What you dont like it" laughed jason. "No, like not at all" said lizzy. He smiled at her leaning down to kiss her.

"Howd he get into an ivy league anyway" asked aria. "Must have been a formative action for goth and emos" said spencer. They opened the case that aria and spencer had dragged in before revealing the bird fountain they had gotten made. "Its beautiful," said aria. "Pedestals are already out there next to the bench, this goes up friday morning" said spencer. "Do you think jason will like it?" asked emily. "Of course hell like it" said lizzy. "You know years from now people are gonna see this memorial and that's all they'll ever know about alli, shell be the girl that they dedicated a bench to well all be gone but alli will still be remembered" said aria. "Thats immortality my darling" said spencer.

Flash back
They were all at the lake, allison, emily, aria, spencer, hannah, and lizzy they were sat tanning on the beach. "I wish we could just choose the age we wanted to be and just stay there." said aria. "The only way to do that is to die young leave a beutiful corpse." said alison. "Jeeze alli" said lizzy
"Dont joke" said emily. "Its not a joke, oh come on havent any of you guys thought about how deliciously tragic it would be to die in some mysterious way, that would be superior" said allison. "Is that really how you wanna go" asked spencer. "Not just yet" said allison. "Dont talk like that" said hannah. "Its gruesom" said aria. "And morbid" said lizzy. "Its not gruesom or morbid, its immortality my darling" said alison

"Where did she get that from? A movie?" said aria. "Ali was a movie" said spencer.

"There they are" said jason as lizzy and hannah walked into spencers house. "Jason hey" said hannah walking over and giving him a hug. "Hi said lizzy awkwardly staring at the boy she once loved maybe even still did. She hugged him for a moment to long she felt like she was suffocating in his smell that she knew to well. She pulled away walking over to the girls
"Sorry were late" said hannah. "No problem i was just saying you did a lovely work on the memorial, i might have done one or two things differently but we can adjust that on the way" said jason. Spencer smiled at him annoyed. "Heres a copy of the program for the dedication," said jason. "Oh i emailed you the program that we worked up" said spencer confused. "Right i saw the draft, this just fine tunes it." said jason. Lizzy gave him a look like quit being an ass. "Ah lets see uh, shelly leanords gonna plays something i dont want to give her more than 3 minutes i remember shes kinda a show boat with that chello" said jason. "Oh and is this the picture for the program" asked jason "yes its everybodys favorite" said emily. "Its the one i would have picked" said jason sadly. Lizzy looked at him wishing she could just see what he was thinking, get a moment alone maybe.
"I thought i was gonna be able to get my whole family out her but at the last minute my mom, ha its crazy talking about this isnt it". They all nodded. "You know when i think about her i think about you 6 up in her room laughing keeping secrets." said jason looking at lizzy when he said secrets. Jason shook it off. "That was a long time ago." said jason. "Feels like yesterday though." said lizzy catching jasons eyes for a brief second then looking away. "I want you girls to speak id rather hear from you than mrs slogan from the pta" said jason. "The pta was a lot of help" said spencer.
"What about the rain?" said said jason. "The rain?'' asked spencer. "40% chance before the weekend" said jason. "Oh um, they said we could use the schools multi purpose room if we have to move inside" said spencer. "Great, people think this dedication is about closure, there wont be closure until they found out who did this to allison" said jason. Lizzys eyes met his concerned. "Cops in this town have been jerking my family around for more than a year, no more of that, im here to get some action and this memorial is gonna help get it" said jason. They all looked at eachother. "Oh im adding one more speaker to the program." said jason as he wrote down a name they all saw the name why did jenna want to speal. "Jenna marshall?" asked emily. "Wait you want jenna to speak at the dedication" said hannah just as confused as the rest of them. Jason nodded "thats right."
"Why?" asked aria. "She asked me if she could" said jason. "Jenna asked you to speak" said emily worried. "Is there a problem?" asked jason. "No uh we just didnt realise that allison and jenna were that close" said spencer. "Me either" said jason shaking his head. "Jenna called and said my sister was a lot of help to her after her accident" said jason. "Well, concentrate on what your gonna say, leave the rest of it to me, now im going to go have a talk with detective wilden to see why they havent located toby yet" said jason leaving.
