At the end of Pretty Little Liars Season 2, Emily and Paige (Lindsey Shaw) reconnected, turning their awkward ex relationship into a friendship. Now that Maya (Bianca Lawson) is dead, some fans are worried that Emily will move on too quickly with Paige, but it's also true that poor Ems could use all the friends she can get.

We know that Paige will come back in Season 3, but when? Will she be right by Emily's side from the beginning, or will there be a wait until she reappears?

A fan recently asked showrunner Marlene King, "what [is the] first episode paige will be on in season 3?"

Marlene replied, "5 or 6."

So fans who were worried about Paige making a move inappropriately soon can relax, since she won't even be on screen until Season 3, Episode 5: “That Girl is Poison” or Episode 6: “The Remains of the ‘A.’”

Do you think Emily and Paige should try dating again when Paige returns, or should they stay just friends? Let us know in the comments below.

Catch an all-new Pretty Little Liars when Season 3 premieres on Tuesday, June 5 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC Family.
