Pretty Little Liars - The Fifth Liar

Chapter Eight - Please Do Talk about me when I'm gone

"She asked me if she could." he answered me, he looked confused as he glanced me over.

"Jenna asked to speak?" Hanna questioned

"Is there gonna be a problem?" Jason asked us

"It's surprising to hear that Jenna and Alison were close, quite the opposite in fact." Spencer covered for our knee jerk reaction.

"I know. Jenna called and said my sister was a lot of help to her after her accident." I felt like I was loss for words that Jenna was going to be speaking at the memorial, much less going to it "Well concentrate on what you're gonna say. Leave the rest to me." He started packing up

"Now I'm gonna have a talk with Detective Wilden and find out why they haven't located Toby yet." he was escorted out by Spencer.

"Did we just get fired?" Hanna blurts out just as they were leaving.

"Shh. Keep it down." Aria scolds

"Why is he talking to Jenna?" Emily wonders to the three of us and Aria sighed

"More importantly why is Jenna talking to him." I grit my teeth. That...that...I just... my thoughts were all over the place but I felt anger.

"I don't know" Aria breathed out

"What does she have to say." Em continued

"This is turning into a nightmare." Aria dragged a hand through her hair. Spencer came back

"What did he say?" I question my friend

"Nothing he just kept smiling like he was running for office." That was plausible, I taught him that in the face of a rage smile before you go off on one. I didn't do it that much anymore.

"Spence why does Jenna want to speak at the dedication?" Aria asked like Spencer had all the answers

"And why does Jason want her there. He clearly knows they weren't friends." Hanna added

"We can't let Jenna speak." Em sighed

"Yeah but how can we stop her without looking like bitches. 'She was our friend not your back off bitch' I don't think that will go down well." I voice sarcasm was evident in my voice.

"How can we stop her at all. In case you didn't notice we just got patted on the head an sent off to play." My phone buzzed and they looked at me

"Chill it's just a message from my dance partner. Crap I'm late again. Look, Spence just keep on top of this. The last thing we need is Jenna throwing us under the bus." I tell her before I ran out of there.

After school I danced alone in the studio. When the music finished I heard clapping I swung round and there was Jason.

"How, how long have you been there?" I asked him breathing heavily and holding a hand to my heart as it beat wildly.

"Long enough to know you still move like a work of art." He came closer to me as we stood cheek to cheek.

"Jason, Please don't do this." I plead with him

"Do what, pay you a compliment ? You used to blush when I did that." he smiled down at me

"That was a long time ago. Before you left me." He sighed and trailed his finger up my arm. Then to my locket.

"You still wear it." Jason commented opening it seeing the picture of my family and the two of us. I pulled and turned away.

"You ignore me for over a year and then come back acting a Jerk thinking your the big boss treating my friends and sister like were children and tease me." I panted slowly.
