Vodka Kisses

0608-FrAmed

I ring the doorbell again and again. I don't have the patience to wait for someone to open up. I ring the doorbell again.

I knock the door and Aria pulls open the door.

"Alright, we get it, you're here." Aria complains.

All the girls are already here, that's what happens when you don't fall asleep until 6am.

"Hi." I say rushing past all the girls to get to Logan who's stood at the entry to the living room.

"Gracie." He bends down and wraps his arms around me. He kisses me and stands fully, lifting me off of the ground as I wrap my arms around him.

Back in his arms. Yay!

It's only been a few days, but they were so long without him.

"I've missed you." He pulls away from my lips to nuzzle into my neck.

"I missed you too." I run my hands through his hair at the nape of his neck.

"Please don't do anything stupid so that your dad won't ban you from me." He squeezes me.

"I'm so sorry." I tell him.

"Can you two stop." Aria groans as her and Ali walk past us into the kitchen.

"I think it's sweet." Ali smiles between us. "Do you want coffee?"

"Please." I nod as Logan puts me back onto my feet.

"Hi girls." Logan turns to where the three other girls are sat, looking up at us. They all smile and wave.

They're airing on the news what happened at the arcade and about Charles, so we thought we'd all watch it together.

"Can I stick around or is it girl time?" Logan reaches my hand.

"We're just watching the news, you can stay." Hannah tells him and Spencer nods in agreement.

I sit down on the edge of the sofa and Logan sits on the arm of it beside me as the news comes on.

"Did Ali turn in those home movies to the cops? The ones that Charles left at her house?" Spencer asks.

"Yeah I think so, why?" Emily asks,

"Maybe they could do one of those age progression sketches. We could finally put a face to the name." Spencer suggests.

"And maybe someone could put a fist to that face." Hannah bites.

"Well, we're officially out of beans." Aria comes into the living room, handing out mugs. "What did we miss?" I move closer to the end of the sofa so Aria can sit between Spencer and I.

"Thanks." I say as Alison hands Logan and I coffees.

"Toby says that the highway patrol is setting up checkpoints at all the state borders." Spencer reads off of her phone.

"Did he say anything else after he accidentally ate half your stash?" Aria asks.

Spencer had opened up about her troubles after the night at the arcade. Toby had eaten a bunch of her weed gummy bears and was so high that's why he was so out of it at the gallery.

"He's texting me, that's a win." Spencer says and we all turn our attention back to the tv.

I move in closer to Logan and lean on his thigh whilst watching the news.

The news report tells us that the police think Charles is behind Mrs DiLaurentis' death.

We all turn to look at Ali, she hadn't told us this.
