hey guys... this is my first fanfiction and I Just want to say, thank you pllforlife that I could use the name Riley in my story! I love the name. So here it goes!

Aria POV

I am walking in the shopping mall with my 14 year old daughter, Riley Montgomery. I got her when I was 16. It was a mistake, but she is not a mistake. She is the most beautiful and smart girl I have ever seen and I am proud to call her my daughter.

Riley and I Just moved back to Rosewood. Actually we got back this morning and I promised her to go shopping for New clothes Because I took her away from New York.

I had moved there when I found out I was pregnant. I didn't even tell my mom and dad... I Just left. I finished school online and I got to college after. I had work too, but I always had enough time for my baby.

I didn't even tell her fatter. I was to scared. We were in a illegal relationship and I Just couldn't do that to him. Riley and I don't need a man in our lives. We are happy together and we love each other. That is all that matters to me.

" Mom? Can I get that skirts? It is 10 dollars but if it is to expensive, I will just look for something cheaper" Riley asks me.

" You can have it Riley. You can have anything that you want okay? "

" But mom"

" No buts! Go try it on! "

She rand off to the dressing rooms. I Chuckle . We are both little. She looks like me, with her dark hair and her nose, but her eyes are her fathers. Ocean blue. When she stares at me, all I think about is her dad and how much I miss him.

She comes out of the dressing room, showing me the skater skirt with pencils on it. She has my style.

" What do you think? "

" I think that you look gorgeous. You know What would look good with that skirt?" I ask her. She shakes her head.

" A pair of black block heels "

She smiles at me and squeels.

" Are you serious? Can I have heels? "

" You can "

With that she walks back in. A minute later she comes out again. We pay for the skirt and head put.

" How about, we get something to eat first and Then we will buy you a pair of shoes? "

" That sounds lovely mom "

we walk towards my favorite little vegan place. Since I am vegan, Riley decided that she wanted to be vegan too.

Suddenly I bump into someone.

" I am so sorry I didn't see you there " I say. I look up and look into a pair of ocean blue eyes. The familiar eyes that I have missed so much. The most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.

Ezra's eyes. I gasp.

" Ezra.. "

" Hello Aria " He says with a smile.

Suddenly Riley starts to talk. She hold her hand towards Ezra.

" I am Riley Montgomery. It looks like you know each other so, It is nice to meet you"

He shakes her hand.

" Ezra Fitz. Are you her cousin? "

" No I am actually her daughter " Riley says.

" I didn'r know that " He says, looking into my eyes.

We stand there for a long time. Riley starts to speak again.

" Do you want to come and have some lunch with us? That way you and mom can catch up"

" I would love to " He says.

I nod and turn around. I sit down at a table and we order some drinks and some sandwiches.

"Riley can you actually get me something from the grocerie store over there for uncle Ezra and me? "

" Sure What is it? "

" Some of that chocolate we both love. Oh and get yourself something too "

" Oh I know which one you mean! I'll be right back "

She walks towards the store and when she is out of sight I start to talk.

" How have you been? "

" Why did you leave?"

" Do you still work at Rosewood high? "

"Where did you go?"

" Do you still live in the same apartment?"

" Aria! Answer my question "

I sigh. I know I need to explain why I left 14 and a half years ago.

" I went to New York "

"To do what?"

" My parents were having a huge fight almost every single night. I couldn't take it, so I packed my bag and got on a train"

"Who is her father? "

I already lied about my parents part, why not lie about this too. I feel bad lying but I have to.

" I don't know... there was a night where I was really drunk and the next thing I woke up with a stranger by my side. I took my clothes and rand away. I cried the whole day"

the crying part is actually true... he seems to believe me. He sits infront of me with a sad look on his face. I can still see the love in his eyes.

"Why didn't you just come to me? I was always there for you and Then you were gone. The Girls wouldn't tell me where you were and the obviously knel. I Just don't understand "

" At that moment , It seemed like it was the right thing to do but I realise over a month ago that I was not happy in New York. So I came back. Oh and Riles is coming back so act normal" I say and he nods.

Riley sits back down and hands me the bag.

" So Riley, is it your first day of school tomorrow?"

"Yeah, I am scared though. What if they don't like me?"

"They will! I mean, I met you 20 minutes ago and I already like you"

"I know you longer than 20 minutes..." Riley says.

No Riley don't say it Please don't.

'Mom talked about you a lot when I was little, she even showed me some pictures of you"

and there it is.

"Would you like to do something with me in the weekend Ezra?" Riley asks Ezra.

He looks at me and I nod.

"I would love that Riley. Is friday night okay? Oh and we see each other everyday in school. I teacher English there so we will see each other a lot"

"Yeah friday is okay. Mom can we get my heels now? You promised"

Ezra chuckles and I hear him say ' Just like her Mother '. I laugh.

" A promise is a promise. I will see you soon. Bye Ezra"

" Bye Aria, Riley"

" Bye Ezra " Riley says.

I sigh and we walk away.
