Emily's POV

"Hey Em" Ali greets me as we both head towards the cafeteria to grab lunch

''Oh um hi Ali'' fucks sake, why am I still a bumbling buffoon. Ali has been back for a month and a half now and I've somehow reverted slowly into my 15 year old self 

"Cat got your tongue?" she winks

"Haha" I laugh awkwardly "no sorry - just distracted"

"Everything alright?" she asks me as we reach the lunch lady "I'll have the salad please thanks"

"Yeah - I'll have the salad too thanks - just sort of still not really used to being back here plus I'm finishing moving my stuff in to the loft over the brew so I'm kind of busy at the minute and don't really have time to relax"

"I can come help if you like after school?" 

"Oh wow that's really nice but um you don't have to. I can handle it"

"Come on don't be dumb - we're friends right and friends help each other out" she raises her eyebrow at me as we take a seat at the teachers table

"Um right friends" I nod  ''So any plans for half term?'' I ask to change the conversation

''Actually I wanted your opinion on something about that. I was thinking, since things got cut short we didn't really get to all hang out last time we were together so I thought we could go to Spencer's lake house, if she is ok with it of course?''

'' All as in?'' I question

''Well the girls, Caleb, Jason, Noel and Cece. What do you think?"

"Yeah sounds good ..." I sigh knowing I probably shouldn't ask the next question "What about Elliot?"

"What about him?" Ali shrugs

"Come on Alison... You know what I mean"

"Oh do I?" she looks up at me and raises her eyebrows "what about Elliot?" she repeats

"Ali... You've been back 6 weeks and you haven't given either of us an update - I just I'm thinking how I would feel if I found out that you were going on a trip with him, I can't help but feel bad I guess"

"Wow you really are changing..." she furrows her brows "I know and I did think about this but what am I just not supposed to invite you to hang out with our best friends and besides..." she trails off taking a deep breath

"Besides what?" I wonder

"I just ..."

"Alison..." I gently place a hand on her arm and tilt her head up with other

"Nothing" she quickly pulls away and looks down again but not before I see her blush. 

"Ok, if you say so Princess" I smirk to myself knowing full well what's just happened and what she probably just realised. 

This is it. Don't fuck up now, Fields.

*after school*

"Thanks again for helping me you didn't have to" I say to the pretty blonde as I put one of the last boxes down and wipe my brow

"Don't mention it" she beams back with a wink  "So Spencer said we can all go to her lake house next week for half-term and everyone is booking some time off to join us"

"That's nice" I say as I go sit on my new couch. She sits at the opposite end and I can't help but turn my head and stare at her. Gosh, she is just so stunning. There is no way I could ever truly remember all of her stunning features because she is so out of this world that even my mind can't imagine it.

"Em... You're staring" she blushes

"Um hum sorry" I bumble. I honestly need to stop this lack of confidence. 2 months ago I was killing the game. I could make a girl fall in love with me with nothing but a wink. I don't want Ali and I to get back together and have me be spineless and shy again. I can still be the confident sexy me without being a dick "Actually... I'm not sorry. You know I love you. You know I can't help but stare at you." I move slightly closer to her on the couch "I mean you're an absolute stunner and you know it." I get closer 

"Em..." she gulps 

I lick my lips and stare at hers "I know somewhere deep down you know this is right" I look at her lips "But I won't force it - I can wait till you're ready" I lean in and see her tense up out of the corner of my eye. I let out a slight chuckle, shake my head and gently kiss her cheek "I've waited 5 years twice before, I can wait a bit longer" I wink and go back to my original spot on the couch. I turn on the TV and look at her "Why don't you choose a film while go order us some pizza for dinner, Princess?"

"Um... yeah sure" she stares at me in shock and I can see her cheeks are flushed red. 

I still got it.


A couple of hours later, Ali and I are watching the end of "To All of the Boys I've Loved Before". At one point during the film we had gotten closer so we could share the only blanket I could find in my boxes. She still sat a comfortable distance from me though and I would sneak a peek every now and then just to observe her, the way she threw her head when she laughed, or the little smile which drew on her lips when a cute romantic moment appeared on the screen. 

I look across to her, only to catch her staring right back at me. She quickly looks away and I let out a light chuckle "You can stare at me. I know I'm hot. Can't help it" I smirk

She whips her head my way and scoffs lightly "Someone's feeling themselves"

"What can I say? I don't blame you I mean look at this killer body!" I say jumping up and pointing at myself

"Uh huh sure" she rolls her eyes

I look at her mischievously and start walking towards her "Ali... you were staring at me remember"

"You had something in your hair" she stammers as I get closer and closer and bend down to be eye-level with her on the couch, knowing full well she has full view on my chest.

"Emily ..." she warns as she tries not to look 

"You ok there, Alison?" I ask wanting to test her limits. The cocky sexy me was in full control right now and I loved the feeling. She doesn't need to know I won't do anything. I sit down on her lap with my legs either side of her and keep my face inches from hers. 

"Em..." she whines

"Admit it you're turned on and you think I'm hot right now" I grin looking at her and licking my lips

"Em..." she warns with a tremble

"Go on, say it - you think I'm the sexiest hot-" 

Her lips suddenly crashed onto mine. Fuck.

She grabbed my hips and flipped us on the couch, she was on top of me now and didn't break the kiss. Fuck. 

It had been so long, I hungrily kissed her back, grabbing her hair. Her hips began grinding into mine. Fuck. 

I couldn't help but let out a small moan. She's so hot. I forget all I'd said about waiting. All I want is her. In this very moment. I can't stop myself. I had waited so long to feel her kiss again! 

''Shit!" she suddenly jumps away from me and holds her hand to her lips. I stare at her in shock about the kiss, about her breaking the moment "I need to go!" she grabs her jumper from the chair "Thanks for the food! Bye!" 

''Alison! Wait!" I try to yell after her but she runs out the door before I even have time

Welppp... I might have just fucked it. Problem is I am now most definitely addicted to Alison DiLaurentis. And this time, it's for life. 



*A/N*

So that just happened... Now that's out the way when is Ali gonna just let Em in? For me to know and you to find out!

Thanks again for sticking with me for this story!
