Don't Tell (Emison)

Chapter 3

Alison's POV

The lesson was so boring that I couldn't even concentrate. Or maybe I just had my mind somewhere else. Somewhere lost in the dark surrounded by a high stronghold where nobody else could enter in. Nobody but us, me and her. I pictured her perfect smiling face standing right in front of me and her hair waving magically down her shoulders. Only there I was safe. That was the only place nobody could ever see us together and I could finally have her just like I was dying to. I could finally give her what she'd eagerly wanted for ages.

But when I got back on Earth I realized I had gone so deep and only then I realized I was thinking about Emily and...you know, she's a she...she's a girl. That couldn't happen. I was not supposed to like girls, I had the heart of the most beautiful guys. Why did I have to end up thinking about a girl instead? Maybe I was feeling bad for Emily and I just wanted to make her happy by giving her a chance but that wasn't what I, Alison DiLaurentis ever wanted. That was the most ridiculous thing.

I was still in class when I noticed Noel Kahn staring at me and was probably waiting for my eyes to meet his so he could give me a smile. I just gave him a quick look showing him I was being bothered. I would never stare at someone back and smile or flirt with that person because these things were for normal girls who were happy that someone was noticing them, but I was different from the rest. I wanted to watch people "die" for me leaving others wonder how I did that just walking by.

When the bell rang Spencer came to my desk and said: "Is Noel Kahn the next victim?"

"Oh, totally!" - I said smirking and Spencer burst into laughs. Then we went together to the school refectory and joined Hanna, Aria and Emily at the lunch table. They were looking quiet. It definitely wasn't the best day for them, I could read it in their eyes. Aria was looking great she was in the perfect mood but I'm talking about Emily and Hanna. It's like they had had a fight with each other. I gave Aria a questioned look and she raised her shoulders meaning she knew as much as I did. It was incredible the connection we all had. We could scan each other with one look only. I really love these girls! Knowing that I'm such a bitch sometimes and they still want me as their best friend makes me have no doubt about our friendship.

"Can you pass me the ketchup, Hanna?" - Spencer said to her.

She just grabbed lazily the ketchup in her hand and just gave it to her without saying anything and without any eye contact. I didn't know what was going on with them. Especially Hanna. She seemed totally broken. "Is everything okay, Han?" - Spencer then asked her. It was the best question that none of us wasn't actually saying but had it in our minds.

"Yeah, perfect!" - she replied while looking Emily. But we all knew that tone, that sarcastic tone. Typical Hanna. By "perfect" she meant the opposite. I saw Emily was so concerned and was moving her fork around the plate without eating anything. She sighed and then finally opened her mouth to get the words out of it.

"Hanna, I'm sorry. I have no idea how it happened!" - Emily said. And by that we all proved something was going on between them. And it wasn't sounding that good at all.

"You could say this if it was only a kiss. But this was unbelievable. And you were the last person in the world I'd ever think would do this to me and you just..." - Hanna was so angry.

"I'm GAY!" - Emily interrupted her endless speech. "I'm gay, Han, I'm not interested in him, neither in any other guy in the world! I...I don't remember anything, I told you."

"You should've thought this before you drugged yourself as much as not knowing what you're doing."

"But he told you, Han. He told you about what happened, so you know that was a mistake..." - Emily was trying to lower her voice and calm Hanna a little bit down. But she only seemed to get more angry by everything Emily was saying.
