1 month later
                          
I've lost Noel and Toby.
                          
Life couldn't be worse.
                          
And Mrs.Dilaurentis along with my mom want to talk to me.
                          
Great😒
                          
I walk to Alison's house already dreading everything.
                          
I know Mrs.D wants to talk about Noel and Toby's involvement and me and stuff but I don't think I can handle it.
                          
She's going to talk about my two best friends and how they are responsible for my other best friends death which I know is a lie and I have to sit in that house where it all went down and try to stay calm.
                          
This is not going to end well.
                          
"Oh dear come in"Mrs D says as she opens the door. "Do you want anything?" 
                          
"No, I'm fine thank you"
                          
She nods and sits across me, staring at my tats ands piercings
                          
"Why did you decide to get tattoos?" She asks
                          
"I just didn't like how I was before. A lot of things happened and I couldn't control them, but I can control my body so I wanted some"
                          
"What happened?" She asks
                          
"Um...just personal things" I shrug
                          
"Did Toby and Noel every try anything with you? Or force you to do anything?"
                          
"What? Oh my god Mrs.D no. Not at all" 
                          
"They are behind bars and you are safe. If they made you do things you didn't want to, tell me, we can tell and you will be fine"
                          
"Mrs.D I swear to you Noel and Toby did nothing wrong. You know these boys, you know how much Noel loved Ali and Toby too, you really think these boys did that?"
                          
"Spencer, there has been no arrests since she has died, and now there has been. Two years almost three has past and it's their first arrest they must have proof."
                          
"I get how you feel. But I know these boys. I seen their face when we came back the day we found her body, they were mortified. They would never in a million years hurt Alison. And they weren't even here when Alison could've been killed"
                          
"What do you mean?"
                          
I sigh knowing this is a lie, but I need her to know they had nothing to do with her death.
                          
"We were here with Ali during the day and we were going to sleep over but Alison wanted to be alone for a bit. She was just in a mood and we were going to head back anyway. So I comforted her and everything we said our goodbyes and she fell asleep. Then we headed back to Noel's Cabin. The cabin is hours away and when we got there we watched movies and stuff, they never left my side"
                          
"You're sure?" 
                          
"Yes, the way we fell asleep there was no way they could've moved without waking me up. Plus we fell asleep around 6am and got the call at 9am. They went no where. We weren't near the scene. The prints must've been from the morning"
                          
"So what about the bloody rag?"
                          
"Maybe Toby grabbed a rag to wipe his face when him and Noel were playing games in the basement and whoever did it to Ali grabbed it? Im not sure, but I know one hundred percent the boys aren't responsible"
                          
"I'm sorry Spencer but I don't know if I can believe that, look at them now"
                          
"Do you know why they are like this? Because of Alison. They did this because of her. They couldn't deal with how she left. Why do you think I'm like this?! The pain of losing her is too much. We didn't want to remember. We were always together Noel and Ali with Toby and I. It was hard and we just had to change it. Don't let appearances fool you, you know our hearts and how much we loved Ali"
