Toby's POV
I looked at Spencer, she was sound asleep so quietly pulled out her other surprise I was waiting for the right time, I opened the red box, with a gold diamond ring in it, I fidgeted with is, to see if it would magically gave me a date to purpose, Spencer shot up in a quick sweet, quickly putting the ring in my pocket.
"Spence? You ok?!" I asked, Spencer was shakily, she began to have a short panic attack.
"I-I'm Fine," Spencer whispered softly, "J-Just get home please," she stared out her window, and cried silently.
"Spencer, I've known you for 13 years what makes you think I don't know when your upset." I passionately cooed, putting my hand on her back, being carful not to hurt her.
"T-Toby I'm fine," Spencer was looking for her phone, still a bit shaken. "I-I think, my phone." She forced out.
"Spencer, I have your phone, you need to release your stress not add on to it." Affectionately, I pulled over, I couldn't go on like this.
"Spencer, I'm not moving from this spot till you tell me what's wrong," I pressured, Spencer began to panic, trying to open the door.
"Spence!!!" I called out, Spencer opened the door shutting it, gasping for air.
"I'm sorry Tobes," Spencer apologized, numbly. She had that face like she wanted to explain, but she didn't want to remember, like she was pushing the memory further and further down her head but wanted to take it all out, she wanted to forget all of it.
"It was just a bad dream." Spencer smiled, temperamentally, "Toby...Johnny is still alive, he could hurt you, he could hurt my friends, he could-" 
"I won't let that happen, I won't let that prick near you!" I interrupted, Spencer looked relaxed, "you feel better?"
"A lot. Thanks." felling relived, we headed home peacefully.

Arriving, after the 20 minute drive, Spencer came straight to my side, holding my arm tightly. I walked her up to the loft, her head on my shoulder.
Spencer's phone buzzed in my pocket, fearing who it might be.
"Toby, what's wrong?" Spencer stoped, "can we just go inside, I'm not standing out here any longer," Spencer, changing the subject.
Unlocking the door, feeling the cool air breeze, trying to open the door. Turning the eyes left, and right was no use, just a waste of time, sensing Spencer, feeling scared. Something on the clean, clear window caught my eye, written in read on our bedroom window.
Here's Johnny!
Mocked. I've seen enough horror films to know where that kid got it from, Spencer sneaked up behind me gasping, "Toby..."
Johnny was right behind Spencer, he's lucky, he's lucky I'm a cop, or he'd be dead by now. Giving Spencer the, stay calm look I pulled out my gun, "Freeze!"I shouted.
"Oh Toby, you always playing the good guy! You still a cop?" Johnny let out a slight chuckle, "You see, you hurt Spencer so much, she thought she needed to kiss me! Your job was just way to important for Spencer."
He's trying to weaken me, Not this time, I won't let him. "I believe Spencer told me about you," he smiled touching her ratty hair.
"Get your hands off her! Or I'll shoot you, right here, right now," My arms were getting weak, holding up the gun, I was tired, Spencer was exhausted, you could see it in her face. Johnny quickly grabbed Spencer, pulling a gun to her head.
"You shoot me, she's dead." Johnny put the hard closer to her head.
"Me for her!!" I shouted.
"Not a chance!"
"WAIT!" A voice called out, "Please don't do this!" The voice shouted again.
Coming out from the shadows, I could get a closer view if the mysterious voice. It was Alison.
Spencer didn't even need to see the face to know.
"Ali!!? When did you get back!?" 
"The girls called me, and told me everything, even about how you protected us, I just had to come back.
"I could just hug you," Spencer cried, Alison smiled, "Me too, Spence, we all want to take a wack on this nut job, that's why I called them here, OH, we called to cops, more are on there way!" Aria, Hannah, And Emily walked out of the bushes.
"You don't know what your getting yourselves into!" Johnny snapped, "You come any closer, I'll blow her head off," Spencer winced in fear.
"Why are you doing this!?" Emily whimpered, looking at Johnny like she knows him.
"Because, she picked Toby over me!" Johnny whispered something in Spencer's ears, "Talk!"Johnny shouted, pointing the gun further into Spencer's head. Sobbing with pain, Spencer mumbled, "I love Toby, not you," Spencer forcefully said, over her miserable sobbing. Flashing red and blue lights flickered among the dark oak trees, Johnny flinched, shooting off his gun, hitting Spencer right in the chest.

Alison's POV
Coming back to Rosewood was a hard choice, I decided to leave because rosewood was just a shitty town, cops having no one else the blame but my friends and I. They always blamed the wrong person. I got a text form Emily, my heart skipped every time I hear from her, yes, I did have feelings for her, but I didn't know, I moved in with officer Luranso, yeah I know, I would've moved in with Emily but, she was still in Rosewood, im probably rude, and feel bad about leaving my friends behind, before leaving for work, I got a text from Emily, I felt like I had to answer it, I wouldn't miss her text or calls, no matter what time it was. I loved her, and wanted her to love me.
Ali!!! I missed you! You should come visit joy over filled me, smiling,
A:I missed you too Emily!
E: I know you hate Rosewood but I think you need to come back, somethings been happening
A: Is A back?
E: Not for us.
A: who?!
E: Spencer, she made a deal with him, that she'd get targeted, to keep us safe. Now I feel guilty, Ali she looks so.... scared and broken
A: Oh God, ok, and em? I..I love you.
E: Ali..I...
A: I always have, I just, hid it well.
E: I love you too
A: I'll take a flight over there today

After our conversation, I started to pack my bags, ready to go to Rosewood, the town everyone hates, but after leaving them behind, I'll make it up to them by going. He door shut behind me. Leranso was home. Fuck, trying everything to avoid him, he came running into the house.
"I heard your leaving!" said the sweet, worried cop.
"One of my friends are in trouble, so I'm going over there to help her." 
I left him standing there in shock, heading out the door.
Emily mailed me a plane ticket a couple days ago, but I didn't understand why, now I did, she wanted me to visit her, when she needed me I just ignored her, I felt sick,  the whole car to the plane station. Arriving, I turned my ticket in, knowing it would take forever for my flight to occur.
Surprisingly, it didn't take as long as I thought when I heard my flight number, 214
I sighed, I was happy, but nervous.

Sorry Ali's POV was thrown together, you'll get more intro about that the next chapter but a reminder, THIS IS STILL THE PAST. Tell me what you think will happen when Ali comes back to Rosewood, how will A react?
