Chapter 1: Bitch is back

Emily's POV:

When biology was finally over I walked into the cafeteria where I saw Spencer, Aria, Hanna and Alison standing surrounded by a bunch of students, including Mona and Lucas.

Mona showed us a video of what happened in the church and surprise surprise, Alison had lied. I had really thought that she had changed, but now she's starting with the loser Mona stuff again? I glared at Alison but she just walked straight passed Mona and into the bathroom.

"That's the last time I underestimate that bitch." She sneers, reversing back to the 15 year old Alison.

"How are you going to spin this one around Ali? We know you are a great liar so i'm sure this is going to be a good one." I snap back. If she thinks she can just go back to her old self and have us follow her around like lost puppies she's way out of her league.

"Everything I told you last night was true," Ali made eye contact with me for a brief second and I understood the double meaning in her words, "She slapped me first I swear it."

"I didn't tell you because I felt terrible about it." She continued, almost in a begging stance.

"Loser Mona, really? We're back to that again?" Hanna snapped, crossing her arms tightly.

"I know how it looks, but you know what she's capable of, I mean she set me up." Ali fought back.

I just stare at her, Mona may have altered that video but she didn't make Alison say those things. I can barely look at her, after last night I thought things would be different but I guess I was wrong.

"Mona has done a lot of things to trick us into believing things were real when they are not, I mean Spence you landed in Radley because of one of those elaborate stunts she pulled." Ali continued.

I was tired of her excuses.

"Maybe Mona deserved it, but you went out of your way to lie to us. Again." I snarled at her, walking out of the bathroom with everyone following after me. Everyone except for Alison.

I avoided Alison the rest of the day but when I had finally got home I sat in my room watching some old movie when I hear footsteps entering my room.

"How did you get in?" I ask, startled by her sudden appearance.

"Your mom let me in." Ali answered, standing there awkwardly.

I ignore her stare and let my focus return towards the black and white movie in front of me.

"Em, I know I screwed up. Em will you please look at me." She pleaded, her voice breaking.

As much as I wanted to ignore her, my heart ached at the sound of her voice, so I tore my eyes from the screen and stared at her face.

"Why wouldn't you just tell us the truth, it's so much easier than lying."

Alison walks over towards me and sits down but I refuse to look into her eyes because I'm afraid that if I do, I might forgive her instantly. Yeah, Love sucks.

"I didn't tell you the truth because I was afraid I was going to lose you." I hear the sincerity in her voice but I didn't want her to have power over me again. She doesn't own you, Em.

"Please." She whispered. Ali stretched out and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, a simple gesture that she'd done a thousand of times before.

I turn to face her, big mistake, her piercing blue eyes makes me lose my breath for a second. Ali looks broken but also desperate, like she needs me to forgive her. It reminds me of the day in New York.
