"Ali knew all of our secrets, but we didn't know any of hers." -Aria Montgomery
"Why was Jenna there?" Aria whispered. The five of them were at the Apple Rose Grille.
"I guess she's back," Spencer shrugged.
"That cop acted like we were suspects or something," Hanna pointed out.
"Do you think we looked guilty?" Isabel asked nervously.
"Why would we?" Aria replied. "We haven't done anything wrong."
"-Except lie about The Jenna Thing," Hanna added.
"We promised we'd never bring up The Jenna Thing again," Spencer said in hushed tones. "Remember? It never happened."
"Have you found a way to forget?" Emily whispered back. "I still wake up in the middle of the night-"
"Em, it was an accident," Isabel assured her. Emily just looked down and fiddled with her friendship bracelet that Ali had given all of them after The Jenna Thing.
Hanna dumped all of the booze from her flask into her coke, which earned a funny look from an older guy.
"It's medicinal," Hanna explained. When he still gawked at her, she added, "Cramps." and begrudgingly looked away.

"Ali knew all of our secrets, but we didn't know any of hers," Aria remarked.
"I knew some," Spencer said quietly. They all stared at her.

"She'd so kill me if I told you," Spencer groaned.
"She's dead!" Isabel and Hanna exclaimed at the same time.
"Ali was seeing someone that summer," Spencer finally admitted.
"I knew she was keeping something from me," Emily huffed. "From us."
