Unforgettable (Emison)

Chapter 18: "Please forgive me"

A/N So i kinda got writers block half way through the chapter and then felix released the game and i got distracted so I'm sorry that it isn't that long.
Alison's POV
For the first time in a long time, I honestly don't know what to do.
I can't break Emily's heart, I just can't.
I've spent years and years trying to mend it...
If I break it again...
Will she ever be able to forgive me?
I know it's a demand from A, and when we get Caleb back, I could simply tell her that it was an order from A but
I know Emily.
Emily takes everything I say to heart.
She would never forgive me.
The moment I start coming to a conclusion about my feelings for Emily,
A sweeps in and has to ruin everything.
For both me and Emily.

On second thought,
I've already came to a conclusion about my feelings for her.
What's the conclusion you ask?
Well...

I love her.

Emily's POV
Kissing Paige will not only confuse paige,
but it'll confuse me too.
And loads of other people.
It's unfair on Hanna and Spencer if I don't do it.
I know Spencer and Caleb broke up and everything but it doesn't change the fact that she still cares about him.
And Caleb is also a good friend of mine.
I have to do it.

I just want to get it over and done with.

I walk out of the door and head straight to the car.
Quickly getting in, i put the keys in the ignition and drive to Paige's house.

I find myself at her front door, holding my fist up to knock.
Knock Knock.
I can hear footsteps inside, coming towards the door.
I don't need to say anything.
I just have to kiss her.
Once.

She opens the door, her face has a blank expression.
"Em-"
I quickly kiss her, and turn quickly, running to the car.

I can't believe I just did that.
I can feel the tears start to come.
I can't let Paige back into my life, but A wants her back in.
Of course they do.

I drive away from the house, not looking back.

Alison's POV
I've played A's game for a long time and I know how it works.
Surely I can find a way around it.
Slip Emily a note?
Whisper to her?
I'm not sure yet, but I have to think of something quick.
Caleb looked like he didn't have a lot of time left.
I grab my phone and call Emily.
She answers quickly, really quickly.
"Hey Em, can you come over?" I ask without hearing to see if Emily was the one who answered.
"Sure" she mumbles, hanging up.
Huh, odd.

Not long later, I hear a door opening.
It's Emily.

She plonks herself onto the couch.
Has she been crying?
I couldn't think of what A wants her to do...
Or made her do.
I can't ask, but I just need to tell her what to do, I have a plan.

"Em, are you okay?" I ask concerned, sitting beside Emily and putting an arm around her.
She stiffens, but relaxes, resting her head on my chest.

I hear her sobbing.
I lean my head into her, into her ear to be precise and whisper.
"A wants me to break you,  Kiss me but please don't be hurt I don't mean anything that'll happen I swear" I say it quickly, and mumble it in case there's microphones or something around here.
She looks up at me and nods a little, burrowing her head back into my chest.
"Ali, I-" She says slowly, removing her head from my body so she can make eye contact with me.
"love you" I smile and finish.
She knows what to do.
She leans in to kiss me.
I pretend to freeze and I jolt backwards.
"Emily I can't do this. I love you but... not like that" I don't mean it and she knows I don't mean it.
She looks down and frowns, tears slowly forming in her eyes.
"I thought you-" She says slowly, looking up at me.
"Emily I like boys." I say quickly, pretending to get frustrated.
"I guess you've never changed." She spits, standing up.

"You can have this back." She says angrily, shoving something into my hand.
She's a really good actor.
When she slams the door, I open my palm to reveal the bracelet I gave Emily so many years ago.
I feel the tears start coming.
It's not from pretending to break Emily's heart.
It's from the realisation of how much I've heart her over the years.
When we get Caleb back.
I will fuck her so hard.
IM KIDDING IM KIDDING.
What i meant was,

When A is finished this sick game,
I will tell her how I feel,
I will tell her that,
I love her.
