I was back at school, it was the college fair,  I sat with Aria having some breakfast on the side of the canteen that wasn't being used.

"Why was your phone turned off, I've been trying to reach you." Emily fretted as she sat down with us.

"We've been busy, why?" Aria answered. Emily turned her full attention to me.

"We need to talk about Jason." she told me I sighed.

"Not this again, I told you to leave me out of the little 'Jason is the devil meetings' just keep spinning till you tire yourselves out." I groan flipping downy sunglasses. I had the mother of all headaches and there was no party.

"Erica, Jason has pictures of you, creepy pictures."

"What are you blabbering about?"

"Spencer and I found a darkroom in his woodshed. Okay, he developed photographs of you sleeping." she vented in concern. I raised my eyebrow though you couldn't tell because of the sunglasses.

"Sleeping?" I questioned not believing her

"Sleeping or drugged." I roll my eyes

"Okay well I'm officially terrified." Aria breathed as Spencer sat down

"Good at least one of you is. For the record I never bought Jason's whole act." she sneered " I mean hanging around here, pretending to be concerned about at risk youths and helping your brother out..." I cut her off

"So you were lying to me then." I say my voice breaking "The whole I promise to tone down on the Jason bashing was just a lie till you could try and find something to turn me against him." they were stunned into silence. I lifted my glasses up.

"You know this makes you worse than A right? At least that bitch let's you know she has an agenda. You lot just hide behind smiles and fake apologies. Can you not understand that he is the only solid thing I have right now. My life is in shambles for the most part.

"Erica..." Aria tried to comfort me but I shrugged her off. As I was full on crying right now. I stood up and ran out of the cafeteria. I ran though the school.

"Erica? Erica, hey, hey, hey." I was pulled to a halt. It was Jason.

"What Happened why are you crying?" he asked me. I looked around people were staring. Jason pulled me into a classroom and shut the door. He made me look up at him and wiped away my tears.

"Do you have pictures of me sleeping?" I asked with a ragged breath.

"What?"

"Emily and Spencer broke into your woodshed" I breathed deeply "The told me they found pictures of me sleeping or worse drugged. Is it true?"

"Man, I swear this town never changes. People would rather sneak around then ask you a direct question." he shook his head

"I am asking you a direct question."

"Yes, I had pictures of you sleeping, but I didn't take them. Ali did?" I furrowed my eye brows

"Why would she have pictures of me sleeping?"

"Got me. I don't know what goes on at slumber parties. Look.." he took my hands in his "The other week I found a roll of film in Ali's room, so I developed it. I was as shocked as you are when the came through as about 20 differ pictures of you sleeping, your hands your face, your lips, your eyes. I've been looking to see if there is anymore, maybe she did it with the others as well." he explained

"After your friends broke in, I moved everything into the house, there was some pretty expensive stuff and I didn't tell you about the pictures because I was gonna gift them to you, I would have explained then what I'm doing now." I managed to calm my breathing.
