"She would gladly let that happen and let [her love for Emily] intoxicate her...drown her in it.

In fact....[Alison] would let it be the very death of her..."

No One's POV

Caleb looked back at the car and once he seen Ali grabbed Emily's hands and Em didn't pull away, he knew things were going to be okay.

"You think they're going to be alright?" Mona stole a glance at the car and seen the same thing.

Caleb shrugged, "they're Emily and Alison, they're going to be...Emily and Alison," he laughed, "They'll be what they always were."

"Yeah," Mona pondered, "and what's that?"

"Well," Caleb swayed until his shoulder bumped Mona's, "other than the usual passionate, complicated and crazy? Together. And I think they're going to figure things out and it'll be okay."

"Okay?"

"Yeah, okay."

"You think they want to settle for okay?" Mona didn't even know why she was so into asking about them, it was none of her business, but being in this nightmare together she saw glimpses of light in the way the two of them were always there for each other, she could only imagine their relationship before Emily's memory was taken. So it was just...she wanted to see them happy. Regardless of what Alison used to be, she deserved to be happy.

Caleb on the other hand felt like the two women were his responsibility somehow, they were together but that didn't mean that they didn't need someone else to be on their side still. They both always had the girls and now, they were gone. He knew too well what abandonment felt like. He grew fond of them in a matter of weeks and now they were stuck with him.

"I don't think they'd be settling for anything, they're all each other wants," he smiled and cringed a little at the way he sounded. Never in a million years would he have imagined him saying those words, about anyone. "And...what are you getting at anyways?"

"Nothing, I just, I dunno, it's weird seeing them this way I guess. I mean I'm not even close to them and only god knows how much shit Ali and I put each other through but that doesn't mean it's not hard for me to watch them like this."

"Like what Mona," Caleb started to defend suddenly, "we can't expect them to go through something like this and ignore it and hope it goes away until everything is fine again. Alison is doing the best she can and Emily is still being Emily - trying to make everyone happy."

Mona sighed, "is Charles that fucked up in the head that he'd take away everyone else's happiness for

some perverse version of his?"

"I don't know, but when I see him, he won't have the chance to answer."

Mona looked over her shoulder, "Caleb, Ali is waving at us."

Turning around, Caleb sighed, "well, looks like they're okay."

"Yeah."

"Mona?"

"What is it?"

"Don't bring that up with anyone okay?"

"Bring what up?"

"The fact that it's not the same between them. They know that more than anyone, even if they're not going to want to show anyone, everyone will know, and that's hard enough."
