Pretty Little Liars: 17 Years Later

Chapter 8

Roxanne Hastings *POV*
Last night was so weird. What does this A want? Do we tell our parents! They did go through this for years! What is A planning to do with Arabella and her family? Why? I have so many questions but no answers! I was thinking about it all day at school. I talked to Arabella between classes about it, she seemed just as worried as I was, maybe even more! After school we were walking home with Sasha as well. "What do you think we should do?" Sasha asked. "I think we should tell our parents." Arabella said. "No, this A might retaliate." I said. "But they could help us." Sasha looked extremely innocent and worried when she said that. Then she looked straight behind me to look across the street. There was a girl. She had gorgeous blonde wavy hair and brown eyes. She smiled towards us. All 3 of us walked across the street. "New to the neighborhood?" The girl looked completely lost and almost as innocent as Sasha. "Yeah." She said so nervously, I just smiled politely. "I'm Roxy." She looked really happy when I said that, why did she look so happy? "Oh, your my mum's friends daughter! I'm Phoebe! Phoebe Rivers." I knew this girl, we met once before when she came down around 8 years ago, we were only 8 at the time. "Oh my god! Phoebe Rivers! I haven't seen you for years! Where is your little brother, Ralph? Is he still a handful?"
"Definitely better I suppose." She laughs then looks towards the other girls. The other girls looked awkward like they were intruding, but who can blame them. "Oh, this is Sasha and this is Arabella!" I said pointing to both the girls as I said their names. "Hi." They both said one after the other with a slight wave. "Well it's good seeing you again, I suppose we will see you later tonight? At the meal at Rosewood Grill? We have booked a massive table, I wondered why there were 4 extra seats!"
"Yeah, I can't wait! It's a pleasure to meet you both." She said towards the other girls. They just smiled. Phoebe wales inside her house. I looked to the other girls and said "What are you? Mute?!" They just shrugged. Something didn't seem right about the fact that the Rivers have moved to Rosewood. It's a bit sudden how both the Fitz and Rivers moved here at the same time... Suddenly our phones rang all at the same time, like last night. It was from A. It read: "Roxy, Roxy. You take after your mother. Smart and determined. Let's see how determined you are to see what I have in stall for the Rivers family -A." I looked at the girls. Does this A do anything but threaten families? This seemed so silly. Then we got another text. "Looks like Ezra Fitz, no longer fits -A" I looked at Arabella. She was panicking. She started running and so did me and Sasha. We ran all the way to Arabella's house and she kept running inside.
