6) Never letting go
Jason drove up to Ava's and parked the car. "Thanks for the ride" Ava said and Jason nodded.
"Hey, don't forget what I said just because I'm your dad doesn't mean everything changes" Jason said.
"I know and I promise we will figure this out I want to know you well as my dad" Ava said.
"I know what you meant" Jason said and Ava smiled.
"If you ever need anything or just need away call me and I'll come get you I'll have a room ready for you" Jason said and Ava smiled.
"Will do" Ava said and Jason smiled. Ava got out of the car and Jason waited till Ava was in the house before driving off.

As soon as Ava walked inside and closed the door, she saw Jason drove off and leaned against the door taking everything in.
Toby walked into the living room when he saw her and went to her. "Ava there you are" Toby said. "Where were you" Toby asked. "I was at Jason's" Ava said.
"What why" Toby asked. "I needed answers" Ava said. "Answers to what" Toby asked.
"Did you know" Ava asked instead of answering his question. "Know what" Toby asked.
"That I'm adopted" Ava said. "What no, of course not" Toby said. "You're really adopted" Toby asked and Ava nodded.
"Did you find out who your parents were" Toby asked. "I'm not sure about my mother but from what I hear I'm not really interested in knowing her, but my father is" Ava said and took a breath. "My father is Jason DiLaurentis" Ava said.
"What" Toby said. "He had me at a young age and then when he left to get my mom some food or whatever by the time, he got back my mom left with me she didn't think he would be a good dad she never gave him a chance to prove himself" Ava said and Toby stayed silent.
"I'm a DiLaurentis" Ava said and faced Toby. "Do you hate me" Ava asked. "What no" Toby said. "Why would I hate you" Toby asked.
"My aunt is Alison DiLaurentis the one girl who got you, thrown in jail for something you didn't do" Ava said and Toby held Ava's hands. "You're my sister I'll always look out for you" Toby told Ava.
"No matter who your related to okay" Toby said and Ava nodded.
"Jason wants to get to know me I told him we could work something out maybe I can stay with him every other week or the weekends" Ava said.
"Of course, I'm sure we can work something out you deserve to know your dad but just remember you'll always be my baby sister" Toby said and Ava smiled and hugged Toby.
"Thank you" Ava said. "I'd do anything for you" Toby said.

"Why would A show us that part of the video" Aria asked. "To keep us distracted for when the next attack is launched" Hanna said. "Or to tell us there's more to what happened that night" Emily said.
"Guys Ian tried to kill me in the bell tower to get back his perverted videos" Spencer said. "Ugh gross didn't need the reminder" Ava said.
"And he went after Ali for the same reason" Spencer said. "Yeah, but A had us convinced that Ian killed Alison and now it's what two miles from the kissing rock to Ali's house" Emily said.
"My dear aunt Ali okay that sounds weird now that you think about it" Ava said.
"I mean did she turn off the camera and walk home in the dark alone" Emily asked. "Yeah, someone could've been waiting for her and surprised her when she got home" Hanna said.
"Like who" Aria asked. "Like Ian and just because he didn't kill Alison at the kissing rock doesn't mean that he didn't do it an hour later" Spencer said.
"Let's not forget about him trying to kill you and then saying it was because he loves your sister" Ava said.
"Brother of the year" Ava said sarcastically. "If Ian didn't kill Alison did A" Hanna asked and everyone stayed silent. "Oh, Ava how are you after everything" Emily asked.
"You mean since finding out I'm Jason DiLaurentis daughter" Ava asked.
"Yeah" Emily said. "I'm okay turns out he didn't give me up, but my mother did cause, she didn't think Jason would be a good dad so when he left the hospital room she left as soon as she could and never gave Jason a chance to prove himself" Ava said.
"You're kidding" Spencer said. "Wish I was" Ava said. "So are you and Jason going to get to know each other or" Hanna asked.
"Yeah, he wants to get to know me" Ava said. "Does Toby know" Aria asked.
"Yeah, I told him he and Jason are actually speaking arrangements while we speak" Ava said. "Arrangements" Hanna asked. "We agreed that if I want to get to know my dad that every other week I'll stay with Jason" Ava said.
"That's great Avs" Emily said and Ava smiled. "Have you told Mike" Aria asked. "Not yet but I will, don't worry" Ava said.
"So, uh did you invite Ezra to the show" Hanna asked Aria. "No, he's out of town presenting a paper at a conference" Aria said. "Did you invite Caleb" Aria asked.
"Why would I do that" Hanna asked. "Don't play dumb" Ava said. "Because you kissed him" Spencer said. "How was it" Emily asked.
"Well, I wore the total wrong gloss you know the kind that looks wet but it's really sticky" Hanna said. "Of the wads of hair get stuck to your mouth" Emily said.
"It's all fun and sexy til somebody hacks up a hairball" Aria said. "Hey, could we please keep folding" Spencer asked.
"I needed these done yesterday and I've already missed a million committee meetings" Spencer said and a phone beeped. "Can I get it" Aria asked. "It's just s text" Aria said.
"If it's from Ezra then yes" Spencer said. "Wow Toby had turned our boss into a romantic" Emily said. "Remind me to thank him later" Ava said.
"I was always a romantic you know under a thin veneer of pragmatism and a few shockingly bad choices" Spencer said. "Guys uh I'm gonna go deal with this" Aria said and left.
"Do you realize that we finally all have boyfriends/girlfriends at the same time" Spencer asked.
"Okay I do not have a boyfriend" Hanna said. "Yeah, you do you just don't want to admit it" Emily said. "Tell Ezra we said hi" Spencer told Aria.
"Ugh please don't I still don't like this relationship" Ava said.

Ava was at the mall with Mona shopping. "So did you talk to Jason" Mona asked. "Yeah, turns out he's not the one who gave me up" Ava said.
"What then who is" Mona asked. "My birth mother she somehow tricked him into giving his rights away so she could put me up for adoption when he wanted me, but she didn't" Ava said.
"Why didn't she just give full custody to Jason" Mona asked. "She didn't believe he be a good dad" Ava said.
"Well how are you with everything" Mona asked. "I'm okay just a lot to take in" Ava said. "I'm here if you need me" Mona said. "I know thanks Mona" Ava said and Mona smiled.
>>>
Toby drove up to the DiLaurentis house and parked the car.
"If you change your mind, you know just to call me, and I'll come get you" Toby said. "I know" Ava said and she saw Jason walk out waiting for her.
"I guess I'll see you next week or whenever" Ava said and gave Toby a quick hug.
Ava quickly got out of the car grabbed her bag and went inside with Jason closing the door behind them.

"He was like yelling, yelling" Spencer said. "Slow down I haven't had coffee kind of just wanted to drink it not swim laps" Aria said.
"Oh, just drink your coffee" Ava said. "Says the girl who hates coffee" Aria said and Ava playfully stuck her tongue out at Aria. "Wait your dad was yelling at Ali's mom why did you ask him about it" Aria asked.
"Yeah, but he like lied, lied" Spencer said. "That's strange" Ava said. "Why would be lie" Aria asked. "The real question is what's really going on with Jason" Spencer asked.
"Excuse me" Ava said. "Okay before you found about your dad, he told me that he was in that creepy house alone but there was somebody else in that upstairs window and I was not just imagining it" Spencer said.
"But it wasn't Ian" Aria said. "Okay so who or what" Spencer asked.
"You know he's hiding something you don't paper over windows unless you're a vampire" Spencer said.
"I don't know okay maybe shutting out the world is just how he copes who knows what he's feeling right now" Aria said. "Well apparently you" Spencer said.
"Give her a break Aria has a point I mean he did just find out that his daughter who was taken away from him years ago has been right under his nose the entire time" Ava said.
"I'm just trying to be human Spence okay he lost his sister" Aria said.
"What" Aria said seeing Spencer's facial expression. "Spence what is it" Ava asked. "I just got an email from Ali's mom" Spencer said.
"What does it say" Aria asked. "I don't know I'm too scared to open it" Spencer said.
"Do you think she knows that I called and hung up, last night" Spencer asked. "No, she couldn't have" Ava said. "No, no" Aria said and Aria's phone beeped.
"I just got the same email and Ava's phone beeped. "And I have a feeling so did I" Ava said and Aria read the email. "Why does Ali's mom wanna have lunch with us" Aria asked.
>>>
"Oh, they've made nice changes to the menu haven't they" Jessica said. "Hanna what are you gonna order" Jessica asked. "Um Chinese chicken salad" Hanna said.
"Alison's favorite" Jessica said. "You must be really happy that Jason's moved back" Spencer said. "Happy" Jessica asked.
"I don't even think of that as our house anymore" Jessica said.
"Actually, we all thought Jason moving back was kind of odd" Emily said.
"Jason came into family money and it's his choice what to do with it he definitely marches to his own drummer both my kids do, did and I have a feeling Ava my granddaughter will follow in her father's footsteps" Jessica said and the girls stayed silent.
"You know what I was gonna wait until after lunch but now I'm thinking why wait" Jessica said and gave each of the girls a box.
They all opened the boxes only to see dressed of Ali's. "Did Ali ever show you these" Jessica asked.
Flashback
"I know you like this one Em" Alison said and faced the girls. "Don't I look hot" Alison asked. "Those feathers are really pretty" Emily said.
"It suits you Ali" Ava said. "This stretch side is to die" Hanna said. "Can I try it on" Hanna asked. "There's not that much stretch" Alison said.
"Ali don't be mean" Ava said. "It's a nice haul right" Alison asked. "All one of a kind and all mine just like you guys" Alison said.
Present
"She picked these out" Emily said. "She did and it's a shame that she won't get to wear them you know I have so much away so fast Ali's father thought that it would help me but there were certain things that I just couldn't" Jessica said and the girls stayed quiet.
"And when I heard that five of you were doing the show, I thought wouldn't it be nice if Ali's dream could be realized at least by her best friends and her niece she loved very much" Jessica said.
"Um I don't really know what you're asking" Spencer said. "Mrs. DiLaurentis are you asking us to wear these" Aria asked.
"In the fashion show" Emily asked. "Ali would have loved it" Jessica said. "You know it's the five of you that are keeping her memory alive please say yes" Jessica said.
>>>
"I won't, I can't" Hanna told the girls after Jessica left. "I'm with Hanna" Ava said. "Why not" Aria asked.
"Because it's freaky and weird we can't just march around in her clothes it feels like we just buried her" Hanna said. "Alison never wore them" Emily said.
"Well, she tried them on freaky enough" Hanna said. "I just found out I'm a DiLaurentis and now you want me to wear my dead aunt's clothes" Ava said.
"Hanna, Ava it's a tribute some pictures of Ali a couple songs that she liked you get where her mom and your newly discovered grandmother is coming from" Aria said pointing the grandmother comment at Ava.
"Yeah, well she needs to go back" Hanna said. "You don't need a degree to see that the woman's in pain she ordered a second Bloody Mary for her dessert" Spencer said.
"That was her dinner" Hanna said. "Well, she was sober enough to run it by the board, so we really don't have much of a choice" Spencer said.
"Says who" Ava asked. "I'll let the student committee know" Spencer said. "Do you wanna take charge of photos" Spencer asked Emily.
"Do we have to pass the pictures by her mom make sure she's okay with the ones we choose" Emily asked. "I could run them past Jason" Aria said, and they all looked at her.
"I mean it might just be easier for him emotionally" Aria said. "But are you sure you wanna go to that house" Emily asked.
"You do realize I live there every other week right" Ava asked. "I'll just ask him to meet me after school" Aria said. "Um I don't know you might not want to get him involved" Spencer said. "It's his sister he already is" Aria said.

Ava went over to the Montgomery house and knocked on the door. Byron answered the door and saw Ava.
"Ava hey come on in" Byron said and Ava did. "Mike's upstairs" Byron said. "Thanks" Ava said.
"Hey, are you okay you look like you're out of it" Byron asked.
"Yeah, just a lot on my mind" Ava said and Byron looked at her. "I just found out I'm a DiLaurentis that I'm Jason's daughter" Ava said and noticed Byron's facial expression.
"You knew" Ava said. "It's kind of hard not to see the resemblance" Byron said and Ava nodded. "I never realized how much I looked like him until recently" Ava said.
"You, sure you're okay" Byron asked. "I will be" Ava said and smiled and went up to Mike's room.
>>>
"Mike" Ava said struggling to zip her dress and Mike came over zipping it for her. "You really have to go to this fashion show" Mike asked. "Unfortunately," Ava said.
(I do not own picture)
"You could just do a fashion show for me" Mike said. "And what fashion show would that be" Ava asked.
"Just you me in our underwear preferably naked" Mike said. "Shut up" Ava said and her face fell.
"Ava you okay" Mike asked. "Yeah, I just I need to tell you something" Ava said. "What is it" Mike asked. "I just found out my dad's not my dad and my brothers not my brother" Ava said.
"What" Mike said. "And my actual father is Jason DiLaurentis which would make me a DiLaurentis" Ava said.
"What" Mike said. "Yeah, it's a lot to take in I know but I just didn't want to keep it from you" Ava said. "No, it's okay I get it hey it's okay" Mike said. "You still love me" Ava asked.
"Always and just because you're a DiLaurentis doesn't change anything okay" Mike said and Ava smiled. "I love you so much" Ava said.
"And I love you" Mike said and gave her a quick kiss. "Hmm I had sex with a DiLaurentis pretty neat" Mike said and Ava playfully pushed him to the bed causing Mike to laugh.
"I'm kidding I'm kidding" Mike said and stood up. "Sure, you were" Ava said.
"Just kiss me before you go" Mike said and Ava kissed him. "What would I do without you" Ava asked. "I don't know, and I don't want to find out" Mike said. "Me neither" Ava said.
"Oh, before you go here, they're your favorite" Mike said and gave Ava roses causing Ava to smile.
"You're the best boyfriend ever" Ava said and Mike smiled. Ava gave Mike one last quick kiss on the lips. "Bye" Ava said and left.

After the fashion show and seeing what someone did to Ali's video Ava run outside trying to hold back tears when Jason caught up to her.
"Ava" Jason said and faced her. Jason saw she was upset and pulled her to him while Ava let her tears fall.
"Why would someone do this how could someone hate someone so much" Ava asked.
"She's dead and they still won't leave her be" Ava said.
"I don't know, I don't know" Jason said as he rubbed Ava's back allowing her to cry in his arms not caring if his shirt got ruined, he just wanted to be there for his daughter as long as she let him.
