love on the brain

Emily's POV

I swallowed hard sitting in the limo, as I noticed Alison staring at me. This morning was different then every other morning.

Alison was open.
She doesn't do that. She doesn't open up to anyone. She was this professional, flawless, serious, intimidating business woman who others feared.

This morning she practically told me she had feelings for me. I didn't know what to say or how to respond.

Alison told once she doesn't do relationships. She doesn't like the thought of falling for someone or loving someone. But she somehow has feelings for me?

It just doesn't make sense to me. She says she cares about me more than herself, which I can now see. I mean when I walked out in the snow storm and ended up fainting, Alison told me she was worried about me.

That I didn't know how losing me would effect her. Also when I went to see Talia she was worried, she said she was scared something would happen to me. Then on top off that when I left yesterday, she was worried that I wouldn't come back.

She worries about me too much. Meaning she does care. Even if I think she doesn't, or when she doesn't want to. She still does.

I was brought out my thoughts when the limo came to a stop, I looked up and my eyes instantly met Alison's.

I inhaled and exhaled deeply.
"Are you sure you want to do this?", she asked as if I should take that as a warning. Like maybe what I wanted to see, wasn't what I needed to see.

Or I'm not going to like what I see.

"yes"
She wasn't changing my mind. I had to know if she was okay.

"okay", she says through her teeth as the door open. Alison wasn't to happy of the idea that I wanted to see Talia, but being since I promise not leave her she has to show me her.

She gets out of the limo, as I climb over and get out as well. I got out the door looking around to notice we were parked along a large warehouse.

We were surrounded by nothing but trees, meaning this place was far away from the city, hidden from the outside world. Meaning Alison sure didn't want this place to be seen by people who didn't need to see it.

I follow behind Alison who walked into the building. I enter looking inside and it was literally empty.

A frown appeared on my face, was this some type of joke.

I noticed a guard walking towards Alison and I.

"Miss Dilaurentis", The guard greeted Alison.
"How is she?", Alison asked I guess referring to Talia who probably was held against her will.

"She isn't eating", he responds.
Alison nods understandably.

"Take me to her", she demands the guard. The guard nodded, before turning around and walking into a direction. Alison began to follow as I follow her.

We turn down this hallway and there was a door and a window. A window to see what's inside of the door.

I walked towards the window to see Talia standing, pacing the floor back and forth across the room.

There was trays of food laid against the wall. She turned facing the window just a for a second and I noticed her face. She was bruised, like someone had beat her up.

I look to Alison who had already been looking at me.

"Did you that to her?", I asked her breaking eye contact by looking away.
