Emily's POV

"Dont you love me?" I said, my eyes glossy.

"So much" she forced her eyes shut, letting her tears touch her bare skin. "You have no Idea" Her voice cracking, she turned around with her back facing me while she faced the door.

"Then give me another chance, please" I crawled towards her, wrapping my arms around her legs, trying to prevent her from taking another step.

"I love you so much, Emily Catherine Fields." She shook her head.

"If you love me then stay" I pleaded

"I do, but im tired of loving you" She shook me off and walked towards the door

"Please dont leave me!" I cried, she traded glances between the door and I. She took a deep breath before saying the two words that destroyed me

"Goodbye Emily" Inside, glass shattered everywhere, my whole world just fell apart

She walked out without another word. No texts. No calls. No emails. That was the last time I ever saw Alison Dilaurentis.

Until Now..

"Goodbye Emily" Inside glass shattered everywhere, my whole world just fell apart

"But you can't leave, please I love you. I know that I made a big mistake. You can't leave me, I just got you back. I can't let you go. I won't" I begged kneeling in front of her.

I should've said it.

*whatever sound your fucking alarm clock makes*

Just like that I popped back into reality.

I quietly sat up from my bed, careful not to wake the woman beside me, and finally found the courage to get up and walk to the bathroom to brush my teeth

It's been years since she left. The first couple of months were hard, but I got through it. Barely, might I add.

I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep. Everyday for the first year I would come to the kissing rock hoping that she would show up. Hoping that she would come back to reminisce about us, hoping that she still loved me. But she never showed. It was the only physical connection I still had left with her

Then one day the mayor decided to turn the open space into a lot for sale. They destroyed pretty much everything in its vicinity in order to make room. They cleared the trees and leveled the land. they even destroyed the kissing rock. now there's just a gigantic space in the middle of the woods. Big enough to build a mansion, maybe two.

I don't know how I kept it together these past years. Seeing there was no reason for me to stay at Rosewood, if the kissing rock's been destroyed, I relocated to New York City. I've always wanted to look for her. But there was no point of looking for someone who doesn't want to be found. Hanna would say 'If or when she's ready, she'll show up. If not, then you just have to learn and accept the fact that she might never come back.' The idea of my future without Alison seemed dull to me.

My thoughts were interrupted by my front door slamming.

"Emily!" Hanna's voice echoes through my studio apartment. I groaned and dragged my feet across the cold floor of  my apartment.

"Quiet!" I hissed at her, signaling the passed out naked blonde girl on the bed covered in the sheets. Sexy in the sheets. I thought to myself

"Good morning" Hanna smiled

"It's too early for your shit" I rubbed my eyes
