love on the brain

I sigh as we enter Alison's house, I swallowed hard trying to hide my frustration. "Joseph... can you not tell Alison about what happened tonight... please" I say sounding as if I was begging him and a part of me was.

Alison didn't know I was even working for Vince, imagine what would happen if she finds out what happened tonight.

"Miss Dilaurentis, already knows. I informed in her when you were sleeping on the way here. I apologize" he tells me.

Great.

"Thank you... for everything, Jo" I say thanking him.

"Jo?" He asks arching his brows.

"What? I think it's a nice nickname"

"You can call me whatever you prefer ma'am" he states. "Alright. You can go. I'm pretty sure I'm safer here then any other place" I tell him.

He nods, before walking away. Tyler approaches me, "are you hungry, Miss Fields?" He asks.

I shake my head, "is Alison here?" I ask knowing if she knew what happened to me tonight, I'd be seeing her.

"Miss Dilaurentis left a while you arrived, she had to handle a situation. But she did inform me to tell you she'd be back in the morning" he tells me.

Handle something.

Deep down inside we all know that something, was a someone. I wouldn't be surprise if Vince showed up missing tomorrow, knowing Alison's history.

I woke up the next morning to the sound of my phone ringing once again, this had to be fifth time Kimberly called me.

All I wanted was some peace and quiet, I wasn't able to sleep that much last night, especially with everything going on.

I decided to do what I should of done hours ago, I put my phone on do not disturb. To get comfortable I turned to face the other side of the bed away from the window.

I couldn't help but feel like I was being watched, I slightly turned turn to face the chair that sat not to far from the bed.

There was Alison.
I froze in shock, not expecting her presence so early in the morning. She held a glass in her hand, nearby was liquor bottle, anger was forming off of her.

I sat up slowly, "h-how long were you sitting there?" I asked softly. She leans forward placing her elbows on her knees to hold herself up while looking at me.

She exhales deeply before swallowing the rest of the liquor in the glass. Spinning it around hearing the remaining cubed ice hitting the glass.

"Are you okay?" She finally speaks, ignoring my question and asking her own. I nodded as a response, and honestly I was.

I was more angry then anything, angry at myself knowing Vince was just using me to get back at Alison. Quitting was something I should have done a long time ago.

Her jaw clinches in angry, "did he touch you?" She asks softly. I look away to avoid eye contact, "ali- she cuts me off immediately, "Yes or No, emily?" She asks me sternly.

"No" I lied.

Knowing Alison if she found out what he did to me last night she'd do something to him. She lets out a slightly chuckle, before standing up and throwing the glass across the room causing it to shatter when it hit the ground.

I jumped before looking up at her, "how can you sit there and lie to me when your lip is bruised?!" She raises her voice at me in anger.
