Henrik's Pov

The girls and I were currently at the brew. Hanna, Aria and I were still eating while the others just ordered small cups of coffee.

We were currently discussing about Paige after Hanna figured out that she's the one who told the cops Alison's alive.

"So wait. You think that Paige gave that note to the police?" Aria asked.

"We don't think, we know. I mean it was her handwriting and her stationery" Hanna said.

"Em, have you spoken to her yet?" I asked.

"She's in Maine visiting her family" Emily said.

"You guys, if the police know that Ali is alive" Aria said, clearly worried.

"Then we're all gonna get dragged in that precinct" Hanna sighed.

"Honestly, I'm a lot more worried about Alison than I'm about us" Emily said.

"So what are we gonna say when the cops ask whose bones are in Ali's grave?" I asked.

"That we don't know" Aria said.

"You guys, if the cops are gonna question anybody, it's gonna be me. I'm the one who Ali's mom saw with that shovel" Spencer said.

"But Ali's alive, Spencer" I said.

"Yeah, and somebody else isn't. And I'm the one who might have bashed in the skull of a stranger" Spencer said in annoyance.

"Ok, you really need to eat something. Hanna, give her your cookie" Aria said.

"You give her your cookie. I'm hungry" Hanna said.

"Aria, face it. That's why Ali's mom has been stalking us ever since Mona put on a straitjacket" Spencer said.

"Ok, let's back up for a second. I get that Mrs. Dilaurentis is really scary, but I'm not buying that she's the devil" Aria said.

"I agree. A knows Ali's alive. If she knew that why would she waste her energy torturing us instead of bringing her daughter back home?" Emily asked.

"Maybe because she thinks Ali won't be safe until I'm behind bars" Spencer sighed.

"Ok, you do need this more than I do" Hanna said, pushing her plate that had her cookie towards Spencer.

"Look, I'm not saying she hasn't had help, ok" Spencer said.

"I stayed at that house, Spencer" Emily argued.

"Yeah, and you were almost kebob-ed with a knitting needle" Spencer argued back.

"Um, that was me" Aria pointed out, looking a bit annoyed.

"I was there when she got the divorce papers, ok. She's been through hell" Emily said.

"Yeah, I was there too and she was really upset, I could see it right through her" I said.

"Yeah, and hell may also be the birthplace on her passport" Spencer scoffed.

Emily sighed while I shook my head at her.

"I always knew she was a witch. Fitz is just confirming it" Hanna said.

"Yeah, and we all know how much we can trust him" I sarcastically scoffed.

I don't care if he's helping us or not, it doesn't change the fact that he's a manipulative bastard.

Emily nodded, agreeing with what I said, before grabbing her bag and standing up.

"Where are you going?" Spencer asked.

"Home. And you're my ride. Can we please go?" Emily asked.

Emily walked away while Spencer sighed and grabbed her bag before leaving the place.
