Back in the greenhouse, which looked creepy, even in its tumbledown state. Spencer looked under the table, in search for the box that Emily had dropped somewhere, before standing up with a sigh.
"How hard did you hit him-her-it?", Aria grumbled, as she kicked a piece of glass from her path.
"Didn't run like a her", Hanna rolled her eyes, defending herself, "I thought it was an animal."
"It was. Is", Spencer shook her head, "Okay, where is the box?"
"You guys, this phone is locked", Avery grumbled. Of course it was, why was that remotely surprising?
"And where were you guys?", Emily remarked exasperatedly, "I thought we were supposed to meet up here. Wasn't that the plan?"
"I'm so sorry, Em", Aria apologized, "I-I dropped a huge bomb at home. My parents won't let me go anywhere. I had to crawl through Mike's window."
"And Toby came in and totally cornered me with all of these questions about why I was acting this way, and he would not leave without any answers", Spencer sighed.
"I did come here on time, but since we're all saying something", Avery trailed off, "I broke up with Jason."
"What?", the girls, minus Spencer, said in unison as Avery nodded, sullen.
"My dad and Isabel got married, and now they're looking for a house here in Rosewood", Hanna interjected, "So now I have more than one monster in my life. Okay? I win."
"No, you don't! I was almost killed! These are not highlights, Hanna. This is glass in my hair!", Emily exclaimed pulling a strand of her own hair.
"You guys, when did this become a competition?", Avery scoffed, "I'm holding A's phone in my hand. What are we doing with it?"
"Something, before A knows we have it", Emily frowned, still picking the glass out of her hair.
After a momentary silence, Spencer exclaimed, "Hanna, call Caleb!" Avery gawked at Spencer. Why would she- Why would she want to involve Caleb and put him into danger? Especially when everyone was going an extra mile to keep their loved ones safe. But then again... Caleb was their only way out.
"Why?", Hanna crossed her arms.
"He's the best way that we can get information off of this"
"Leave him out of this."
"But he's our best shot at tracing this back to A", Aria added.
"There are other people. We'll take it to the phone store tomorrow."
"...the phone store?" Sometimes Hanna really can be a dumb blonde.
"Well, then, call technical support!", Hanna shook her head, "We can have someone in Pakistan do it!"
