Authors Note: It's been amazing writing for you guys. I'm really sad that's it's over because this story has been so much fun to write. To think it was supposed to just be a side project and instead I spent every free moment I had working on it. Lots of love to all of you! Xx

And umm... It was requested! (By several people) so just- you know, be happy.

Disclaimer: I don't own HOA or PLL.

It had been over two years since Nina's death. It was still hard for Fabian- and the rest I then to think about. But so much had happened since then. It was now Christmas.
Senior year, well, it had been fairly typical. They all graduated, all went to prom (and this time Patricia and Eddie DID except the crowns).

They all sat around in a circle at Maras house exchanging laughs and talking about college experiences.

"China?!" Mara cried. "Your two are going to China?!"

"Yup." KT and Amber said. "A semester abroad."

"That's awesome!" Willow gushed. "Take lots of pictures for me!"

"Why?" Mick teased. "So you can redraw them all?"

"Oh haha, but I'm not forgiving you for ditching me in art class last term." Willow scolded.

"Come on! We took art junior and senior year! And you expect me to take it freshman year of college too?!" Mick complained.

"Wow. Who knew Mick was such a girl?" Patricia joked.

"Ya, speaking of girls, have you decided what you're going name the baby yet?" Mara asked.

"We have a list." Eddie said.

"A list? Really?" Alfie said.

"Excuse me, but my child isn't going to be named something stupid like what Eddie wanted. Making a list was the only way we could agree." Patricia defended.

"Rainbow is an original name." Eddie retorted.

"No daughter of mine is going to be names 'Rainbow'!" Patricia cried.

"Ya man, I have to agree. Rainbow is a stupid name." Fabian said.

"It was a joke!" Eddie cried.

"Hasn't anyone told you not to joke around with pregnant women?" Amber said.

"No! No one said that." Eddie said.

"Actually I think Eddie's the one carrying the baby. He is the moody one." Patricia teased.

"EXCUSE ME." Eddie cried.

"See? But, I'm the fat one so..."

"You aren't fat Trix." Piper said, as I'd it was the hundredth time she was telling her this.

"Yes I am." Patricia said.

"Then stop eating ice cream." Eddie said.

Patricia smacked him with a pillow.

"So? Do we get to see this list?" Willow asked.

Patricia rolled her eyes and pulled the list out of her pocket.

-Skylar
-Melanie
-Kate
-Joy
-Nina
-Alexa

"Any favorites?" Mara asked.

"Well, Patricia really wants to name the baby Kate." Eddie said.

"Really a lot." Patricia said nodding.

"But, I think it would be nice to name her Nina or Joy." Eddie added.

"While I think it's disturbing to name our daughter after a dead girl." Patricia scowled.

"I can't believe you're already 6 months!" Amber squealed. (Winning prom King and Queen wasn't the only thing thy happened at prom.)

"I can." Patricia groaned.

"But..." Eddie said excitedly. "Guess what?! The admissions board says if she can pass the entrance exam she can get into law school without even going to college!"

"Maybe get in." Patricia reminded him.

"So what? Close enough." Eddie said.

"Well, I heard that the sequel to Mara's book is coming out this new year." Fabian said.

"That's because I told you silly!" Mara said.

"Oh my gosh it was great Mars!" Patricia cried

"Ya, she started SOBBING when Hanna and Caleb broke up." Eddie said.

"It was in August, and I was hormonal." Patricia defended.

"I mean, A is even worse than Nina! Or even Jerome." KT gushed.

"And just went you thought Joy was a bitch, there's that Alison chic whose ten times worse!" Alfie said. (I'm actually really proud I myself for coming up with this idea!)

"Ok," Amber said. "But I still can't figure out who I am!"

"Well," Mara told her. "You're sort of Maya..."

"So I got hauled off to juvy camp?!" Amber cried, jokingly. They all laughed.

After the gifts had all been exchanged and everyone was just sitting, making small talk and enjoying Christmas, KT spoke up.

"Umm, guys?" she said, trying to get everyone's attention. "I feel bad. It's been two years and I'm still kind of keeping a secret from you."

"Oh my god, you're pregnant too!" Patricia joked.

"She said she's been keeping it for two years. " Eddie said between laughs.

"Shut up." Patricia growled.

"No, but... I didn't get my memory back when I told you all I did. Jerome came to visit me in the asylum and gave me some 'therapy' and sure enough I got my memory back. I wanted to tell you. About my memory, and that he was J, but I couldn't. He threatened all of you. I couldn't allow anything bad to happen!" KT admitted.

They all sat there, jaws dropped, looking at her.

"I also knew!" Amber admitted, attempting to break the ice.

"Ok... so we can either forgive you for something that happened years ago, or stay mad at you for the rest of our lives..." Willow debated. "Well, I for one forgive you!"

"Thank you." KT said to Willow sincerely.

One by one, they all decided to forgive the guilty feeling KT. Well, accept for Patricia.

"NO I DON'T FORGIVE YOU!" She spat. "PUHLEEZE IF I HAD KNOWN IT WAS JEROME I COULD'VE-"

"She forgives you." Eddie butted in. "Plus, we've been keeping a bigger secret."

"Oh jeeze. It's twins isn't it?" Piper asked.

"OH GOD NO." Patricia told her sister.

"We sort of got engaged and didn't tell you..." Eddie murmured.

"STOP IT YOU DIDN'T!" Amber squealed. "THAT'S SO EXCITING!

"WHEN?! HOW?!" Mara asked.

"Haha don't worry! We'll tell you everything!" Patricia promised.

And they went into every detail of every moment of the day. It finally seemed that they were free of J, killers and all that horrible stuff. It was Christmas. And they were happy.

"I hope they're not TOO happy." Nina said to Joy, grimacing.

"Ok, you know what? Shut up. I'm trying to enjoy my best friends enjoying Christmas here!" Joy cried.

"Uhmm, if it wasn't for me your little redheaded BFF wouldn't even be alive." Nina reminded her.

"Or pregnant." Joy joked.

"I can't believe they got pregnant on prom night. I can't believe you won that bet." Nina said, shaking her head.

"I win every bet sweetie."

"Don't even go there." Nina said, rolling her eyes.

"I just can't believe they'll never know." Joy said.

"Know what?" Nina asked.

"Know how twisted it all truly is! They'll never know had Piper ending up getting expelled, or how Jason died, or that you know who was the original-"

"I'M taking credit for that thank you very much!" Nina scolded.

"I can't believe she'll never know. Just live in ignorance." Joy said, letting the guilt sink in.

"Joy!"

"Oh c'mon! The readers at least deserve to know! At least where you go that 'handbook' you kept telling Jerome about!" Joy joked.

"You're gonna tell them aren't you?" Nina asked.

"Oh Nins, I have to! They're so loyal and trustworthy! They won't tell! They'll keep all your little secrets!" Joy promised.

"But will they keep yours?"

"I trust them... So anyway.. It all started the day Eddie arrived at the school..." Joy started.

"You're going to go all the way from Eddie's arrival to your death?!" Nina cried.

"Uh ya! If you don't mind I'm trying to start the story! It all started when Eddie arrived at Pinewoods High..." Joy said.

It's done! Woohoo! And are you scared? What doesn't she know?! Who's she?! You'll find out that everything you've known throughout J and SOS is hardly the truth!

I hope you liked it... haha and I hope all of your requests made you happy :)
