Ethan's Pov

I called mom and told her everything that happened and she came to school and picked me up so we could head to the police station.

The other girls parents were called and arrived at the police station the same time me and mom did.

Mom decided to sit with all the girls during their interrogation, while I waited outside with the other girls parents.

Finally they were done with Spencer's interrogation and her, mom and the detective walked out of the room.

"You'll be available for more questions?" the detective asked.

"Of course, the girls have nothing to hide" Mom said.

The detective nodded and walked away. Mom walked over to the other girls parents and Spencer walked over to us.

When she made her way towards us, she sighed and looked at me with an apologetic look in her eyes.

"I'm so sorry, bro. We should've listened to you. And because we didn't listen we got in trouble" Spencer said.

"It's fine, sis. Just promise to listen to me next time" I softly said, rubbing her back.

"Whoever said 'the truth will set you free' never met A" Aria said.

"Jesus" me and Emily said.

This made the girls look at us in confusion and I cleared my throat and rubbed the back of my neck.

"It's from the bible. Jesus said it" I said and Emily nodded.

"Then Aria's right. Because that bitch is going straight to hell" Hanna scoffed.

"I wasn't completely honest in there" Spencer said.

This made us look at her in confusion and I could see some nervousness in her eyes.

"I should have been, but my mom was right next to me. And with the whole Wren thing, I couldn't bring myself to say that I also hooked up with Ian" Spencer said.

"Spence, that has nothing to do with this" I softly said.

"Yeah, I lied about it too, Spence" Emily softly said.

"You know, sometimes telling the truth does more harm than good" Hanna shrugged.

This made the girls look at her in confusion while I let a small smile appear on my face.

"Who said that?" Spencer asked.

"Alison" me and Hanna said.

Hanna looked up at me and giggled before laying her head on my shoulder. I chuckled and gently ruffled her hair.

"Hey, Emily" a familiar voice called out to her.

"Garrett?" Emily asked, shocked.

This made our eyes widen in shock as we turned around to see Garrett walking towards us with a smile on his face.

But what shocked us was the fact that he was wearing a cop uniform.

"You're a cop now?" Aria asked.

Garrett nodded, the smile still on his face. I didn't want to be rude so I sent him a small smile and nodded.

"Look, uh, sorry they're putting you through this" Garrett softly said.

"Officer Reynolds" the detective called out to him.

We turned around to see the detective staring at Garrett, nodding at him, telling him to walk over to where he was.

Garrett smiled at him and nodded before sighing and turning towards us.
