Emily's POV

I'm walking down the school corridor, ready to go home and thinking that I should maybe call Quinn for some fun. It's hot and heavy with her, like we haven't slept together yet but I'm working on it. Our make-out sessions are pretty intense, it's kinda the main thing we do. We tried watching films together and we only ever just watch the first 5, sometimes 10, minutes together before we're lying on the couch, hands roaming pretty much anywhere and lips clashing. It's honestly really sexy my relationship with her. It's loaded with passion, but not the love kind more the lust one. And I love it!

I feel myself get pulled into the the janitor's closet

'' Hey! What the h-?'' I'm cut off by a pair of lips I've got to know very well over the past weeks. I hungrily start kissing back pressing our bodies close together. Suddenly she pulls away but in the dark I can't see her

'' You know I was just thinking about this'' I say in what I'm hoping is a sexy voice and I crash our lips back together again resting my hands on her hips and putting her back against the wall. I kiss from the top of her jawline slowly making my way back to her lips

'' Em... Stop'' she pulls away and I look at her confused

'' Um... Ok'' I take my hands off of her and try and find the switch. When I do I turn the lights on

I study her face and she's looking at me nervously

'' Babe... What's up?'' I grab her hands

'' I think we should break up'' I immediately let go of her hands

'' Sorry what??? You drag me in here for a hot make-out session and then say you want to break up... I don't get it'' I push my hand through my hair

'' Don't get me wrong this is great'' she gestures between us '' I mean it's fucking hot''

'' Okay... So far I agree with you but I don't see you're going with this'' I raise an eyebrow

'' Right... That's the problem Em... As much as this is hot, it's just purely physical, there's no emotion. This isn't a relationship.

'' Ok... but we can work on that'' I argue

'' Emily... We have to admit this is never going to work. For you, this is a rebound, for me this is a discovery. It's not a real relationship with feelings and shit''

'' You're not a rebound'' I defend

'' Em... Please... I don't mind. Alison was your first love, you don't just magically get over her. We had fun, it was honestly an awesome hot and sexy two weeks but it's time you get back to being the Emily you really are, the sweet romantic one who will travel thousands of miles for the one she loves'' She places her hand on my shoulder in an attempt to comfort me. I slump as I realise she's saying the truth... Quinn just happens to be fucking hot and available and I was looking for a distraction so I jumped on her... Literally.

'' I can't be that Emily anymore...'' I lean on the cupboard behind me '' not without her'' I shake my head

'' Well then you get her back!'' Quinn tries

'' How? When she found out we were dating I'm pretty sure I killed all chances of her ever believing I can be faithful to her!''

'' You told her about us?! Why would you do that Em!''

'' I didn't she found out from Hanna who can't keep her big mouth shut!'' I retort '' Either way, I've lost her forever''

'' No, you haven't Emily! You can still make it work. Show her how much she means to you! Show her how much you love her! Show her how much you regret everything, how much you regret the past weeks''

'' I don't regret them Quinn'' I cut her

'' You might not now but there will come a day when you'll hate yourself for having given up on Alison for even two weeks. Trust me, I know you remember?'' she smiles cheekily

'' Right... But what can I do Quinn? I mean she pretends like she's fine with us but I can see it in her eyes she's hurting and I know I'm the last person who she wants to help her''

'' That may be true but I think you're the only one who can help her. Come on think Emily... There has to be something, something you guys always talked about doing together or that you'd dreamed of doing or that you were meant to do... Come on, Em! Where's your romantic side gone?''

'' It's lost somewhere with my heart in Rosewood'' I sigh depressed '' But you're right... I need to figure something out...'' I stand straight and hug her '' Thank you Quinn... One day, you are gonna make someone the happiest person alive'' I whisper, I pull away and kiss her cheek.

I walk out of the janitor's closet. I take a deep breath before heading outside. I keep racking my brain for an idea on what to do to get her back... I get inside my car and turn on the radio, Wildest Dreams by Taylor Swift is playing and I smile a little to myself. Ali idolises her. Before long, I find myself singing along

Say you'll remember me

Standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset, babe

Red lips and rosy cheeks

Say you'll see me again even if it's just in your wildest dreams

Wildest dreams


Oh my god! I know! I know how I'm going to win her back! Of course! Why didn't I think about that earlier?! I smile proudly and start bursting out the lyrics in joy!


You see me in hindsight

Tangled up with you all night

Burnin' it down

Some day when you leave me

I bet these memories follow you around


I'm gonna get her back! This is it! Emily and Alison, together again! I've got this! Emison is fucking endgame bitches!
