Emison: (COMPLETED) Who do you want to take there?

Chapter 7: Lock it in Your Pocket 🔐

Emily - Okay.. I'll go first, but only because I'm trying this new thing called being honest with myself. I think...

I'm gay.

Hanna - Oh.. yeah, I knew that already.

Emily - Wait what? How'd you know?

Hanna - I dunno... the flannels, the Beyoncé posters, the combat boots? I just put the pieces together. Plus you don't like studying at the mall, and I study at the mall all the time.

Emily - I don't know. I guess I'm just different.

Hanna - Is that a gay thing?

Emily - No, its a brain thing.

Another thing is.. Alison kissed me tonight. The first time we kissed..Well..
technically I kissed her in the library.
But tonight, she kissed me.

Hanna - Wait, so Alison's gay too? I honestly didn't see that one coming...

Emily - That's not what I said Hanna.

Hanna - Are you even sure she's gay? She barely looks at me.

Emily - That's the criteria?

Hanna - Just saying.. Anyway, was that all you had to tell me?

Emily - Yes. For now.
But what'd you have to tell me?

Hannas POV
I honestly feel bad now about what Ali told me downstairs. I keep replaying the conversation in my head and debating on if I should tell Emily or not.
At first I didn't really understand what made Ali hate Paige so much that she'd pretend to be Emily and write her a fake sexy letter. It makes a lot more sense now that she said Ali kissed her...
it's clear that Ali likes Emily & is jealous of Paige, but doesn't know how to show it.
But I still promised not to spill the beans..I need Spencer at a time like this.. she's smart. She usually knows what to do. But I still feel like Emily should know the truth.. I know she'd tell me the truth if it were me..

Hanna - Em.. Can I ask you a question first before I tell you?

Emily - Sure.. what is it?

Hanna - If you knew something about your friends but you swore not to say anything, would you still tell us?

Alison - Tell us what?

Alison returns back into the room fresh out of the shower like an angel who just received its wings. Her vanilla aroma following behind her as she drops her robe and searches for night clothes to wear. She's never had a problem changing in front of her friends. She knew Emily loved to watch her, and she loved having an audience just as much.

Hanna - Nothing! Wow, it's getting late..
Em, could you scoot over a bit so I can get the corner of the bed?

Alison - I think you've forgotten there's 4 of us sweetie. You'll need to make a bit more room for that caboose behind you.

Alison turns off the light and the 3 girls squeeze into the bed. Emily in the middle, Alison on one end Hanna on the other end. Hanna dozes off quickly and Alison places an arm around Emily, both girls begin to dream deeply.
4 little liars have drifted off to sleep, but little do we know one has still been listening the whole time and has not slept a wink.
Sweet dreams are just that, and there they will not stay..
We will soon see there will be hell to pay come the next day. 😘
