Emily's P.O.V-At The Brew
6:00 P.M
I didn't know what we were going to say to Aria's question, so all I said was; "We wait." Luckily, we all agreed, and then we decided that we would go home and meet our families...

At Home
6:30 P.M
As I walked those four steps up my doorstep, I had a memory of the times I spent with Maya St.Germain. Of course, after Maya, there were many other 'people' who came into my life, but Maya was one of the few people, I loved, that truly understood me. Things, eventually, became a bit rough between the two of us, and we broke up. After that, I was truly devastated and it didn't really help when I found out the Maya went missing one night...and was murdered. With that thought, a tear went down my cheek, but I quickly brushed it away as I heard a voice coming towards me.
"Emily!" Exclaimed my mother.

"Mum!"I exclaimed with excitement. I felt some more tears drop down my face, but they weren't tears of sadness and gloom, they were tears of happiness. Very soon, Beth and Carolyn, my older sisters, came to greet me. It was truly like a family reunion.

*Beth and Carolyn are Emily's sisters in the books. Just so people don't know who they are*

We all went inside and sat down. Mum went to go and finish some business at the Police Department, whilst I caught up on a few things that I had missed whilst I was away at college.
"So, any news whilst I was away?"

"Yeah totally, I got engaged," said Beth.
"Wow, like really engaged..why so early?" I asked

"Yeah well Brian (Beth's Boyfriend in the books) and I kinda thought, let's not wait until the baby is bor-"

"Wait wait, back up a little, Baby??" Asked Carolyn. Her voice sounded very astounded, and to be honest, so was I.

"Beth, you're only 27, there is no need for you to get married, let alone have a baby, whatever happened to living and fulfilling your dreams?" I asked.

"Em look, I know that it sounds a bit rash, but Brian and I love each other, and we want this baby." She said. Neither one of us said anything, so she continued. "We really want this baby, and we just thought that the quicker we get married then the less suspicious people will get."

"So does mum know about this?" Asked Carolyn.

"No, you guys weren't meant to either but, it just kinda slipped out....so, can I trust you with this one secret of mine?"

I didn't know what to say. Beth had just suddenly said 'baby' and that really did change my opinion on the whole 'marriage' situation. Carolyn was older then me, so I just waited for her to say something.

*5 Minutes Later*

"Will someone please say something?" Asked Beth.

"I'll keep your secret Beth, but just know that we both think you're doing something really stupid and irrational," said Carolyn.

I nodded in agreement and then the three of us went upstairs and into our rooms.

Spencer's P.O.V-At The Brew
6:00 P.M
After what Emily had said at the brew, we all agreed, and then we decided that we would go home and meet our families. I was really grateful to Em for actually answering Aria's question. I certainly had no idea what to say.

At Home
7:00 P.M

I got a text from Emily at 6:30P.M, saying that she had arrived home. I lived furthest away from the Brew so I arrived half an hour later then Em. At first, I thought it would be a good thing to meet my family, but after reaching my home, late at night, I realised that I wasn't in any mood to see my family, especially my Dad. He betrayed Mum and there were times where Melissa lied to us, about Ali, about her baby, about that night.

I looked for the key, and figured that there would be one underneath the doormat. I unlocked the door, and went inside. I looked around and I saw a window open. That wasn't normal, unless there was someone home. "Mom?" No answer. "Hello, anyone home?"  No answer still. All the hair on my body rose. Yes, 'A' was gone, but that didn't necessarily mean that there wasn't another one, lurking around, following it's, well her footsteps, since Cece/Charlotte was 'A'.

I cautiously walked upstairs, towards my room. Seeing my room felt like a relief, and a fear at the same time. After Charlotte trapped us inside the dollhouse, and put us inside our own room...well the exact replica of it. She tortured us and made us make decisions which we would most likely regret latter on.

I decided to call Hanna, I was scared and I didn't know what else to do.

Hanna's P.O.V-At Home
6:30 P.M

As I got out of my car, I recieved a text from Emily around the same time as I arrived home, saying that she had arrived home. I was grateful that one of us had arrived home safely, and hoped the others were safe too.
No-one was at home, at least that's what I thought. So I went inside, to the kitchen. I was hungry so I opened the fridge having a look at what was there for me to eat. There was only an apple.."Meh, good enough," I went upstairs to my room, but on the way, I just poked my head into my mums room, just to check if anyone was home. No-one was home but one of her drawers was still open, with something sticking out of it. I was curious to know what was in it, even though it would be rude of me. It was mum so she wouldn't mind. I went into the room and opened the drawer. There was a bag inside the drawer. I carefully opened the bag and looked inside, I reached down, and I felt a long, stick kind of object. I reached down and pulled the object out. It was a golf club, with the number 9 on it. "Why would my mum have a golf club, she can barely catch a ball without fumbling it!"  I just put the golf club back into the bag and left everything how it was, and then went back to my room.

I checked my phone and it was 7:00 P.M, I was going to put my phone away but it started vibrating. It was Spencer. "Ughhh," I said annoyed. "Yeah Spence, what's up?"
"Hanna, this doesn't fell right."

"What do you mean?"

"I came home and when I went inside there was a window open, well broken and there was glass on the floor,there was no-one home, and no-one in the barn!" She sounded really desperate.

" So who do you think it is?"

"Hanna, your seriously asking me that question?"

"I just don't want to believe it." We both were thinking of the same person, and we didn't want to believe it.

"Spence, your usually the smart-ass person in these kinds of situations, well, actually, every situation, besides fashion...oops, did I just say that?"

"Ahh, yeah, um, anyways, so back to the point, what are we going to do?"

"I don't know, maybe call the others and then we can meet up?" I just added in later "Spence, I'm sorry about what I said before, you know about you not having any fashion sense," I said apologetically.

"That's okay Han!"

"But you do have really weird fashion sense!" I joked,being cheeky this time.

"Han!" Exclaimed Spencer. We both laughed and then I put the phone away.
