My Life in Rosewood

Hey guys. Thanks for keeping up with this story even thought I keep disappearing. I'm hoping to have this one done soon enough now that we are reaching the end of season 2 to the show. I appreciate you all for continuing to read.

Enjoy!

A month passes and things with the girls have not been normal. When they got arrested that night for having the weapon used to kill Alison there was a lot to go through. Why they had it, how they got it, etc, etc. It took hours to get them out of there, but with the help of the Hastings they were able to get them out of the mess for the moment with community service for "tampering with evidence" because even though the cops found them with the shovel, they still didn't have anything solid to put them at the scene of the crime or pinpoint if it was all of them or one of them that killed her. I obviously know that none of them did it, and they gave me a small rundown on how they ended up with the shovel.

Long story short, after they did their tasks for A they were sent a text for the location of where Dr. Sullivan was buried alive. Apparently Emily did receive her own doll just before the wedding and disappeared. So they found her unconscious at a farm area in another town, thankfully she wasn't hurt. Then they went to go get the doctor and it turned out to be a trap to get them to use the shovel and get caught by the police. Their therapist was never actually buried and she hasn't been found.

Things with the girls have been a little iffy since then. They seem off with each other, barely talking unless they have to. Even at school it is hit or miss. Especially with people looking at them like they are crazy, even giving me and Mike looks. It's like when Ian disappeared all over again. This has led to being talked about, picked on more than usual. But we all make due.

Mike is as back to normal as he can get since he's been in therapy. He changed to a new one and has said that this one is being more helpful than the last, which is great. He's not locking himself in his room, not rotting in bed, eating with no issues. Therapy seems to be helping him a lot and is talking to me again without arguing. So good things are definitely happening since he agreed to get help. He's even back to his old tricks of being a brother, but also his concerned side is kicking in again because he is trying to get me to talk to someone too. Naturally my stubborn self declines whenever it's mentioned by anyone.

Toby and Spencer are still broken up. He still tries to call, text and see her but she continues to keep him at arms length. When it comes to Aria, the situation with Jackie got worse because she threatened Aria about her staying away from Ezra or she'd tell him what happened. As far as I know she never left Hollis. Then there's Hanna, her dad still got married regardless of the outburst to tell her future step mom that her dad cheated with her mom. They just didn't have the ceremony or a reception.

As for me. It's a month after what happened to me, so I'm back to myself. When I tried to go back to school the week after I got ambushed, the adults convinced me to take the following week off to recover from both my injuries and to avoid anything that could happen at school with the situation at hand with Aria and the others. So I took the week like they asked and hoped I wouldn't fall behind. Luckily Aunt Ella being a teacher she was able to get me the things I needed and helped when she was able. Then when I did go back I wasn't able to play basketball for a while. Now I am but some days my coach will pull me out of games early to be sure I'm okay and sometimes he'll have me skip practice. So whenever that happens I go over to the store instead.

Amber and Ellie came back to school at the beginning of this week so it was annoying to see them but they've been leaving me alone for the most part. Rachel didn't get kicked off the team but her playtime got changed from being in the entire game to only playing 12 minute games. Coach Brooks believed me over her because he knows she likes to be mean to me and others, so he told her she had to earn back her spot and is slowly gaining minutes when she does as told.
