It was a dreary Saturday afternoon in the town of Rosewood. Some people might be upset because of the weather but not Aria Montgomery. For her it meant spending the whole day with her beautiful secret boyfriend. She never planned on falling in love with her teacher it just happened. She pulled out her phone to send him a quick text that she was on her way.

Hey, will be over in 5. Can't wait to spend the day with you ;) Xoxo -Ar

She walked up to apartment 3B and knocked expecting Ezra to answer. No one came. Just as she was reaching down to pull a key out of her purse a police officer walked by.

"Aria Montgomery right?" He questioned.

"Y-yes."Aria stuttered a bit.

"Your teacher/boyfriend is under arrest." He said coldly.

"Boyfriend? I don't know what you are talking about?" Aria lied.

"We need you down in the station for questioning." With that he handcuffed her arms together and led her down to the station.

When she arrived people were giving her looks. She turned and there he was. Locked up. Her lover in a cell. She broke the restraint from the officer and ran over to him.

"Ezra." She breathed. She placed her forehead on his the only thing separating them was a metal bar.

"I love you so much Aria, don't forget that." He sighed wishing he could put his lips on hers.

"Don't leave me." Tears splashed down her face.

"Aria I don't know whats going to happen but I promise to always love you." He said to her. The officer soon tugged at her wrist and pulled her away from Ezra.

Aria sat in a cold room when her parents entered. Byron was fuming. Ella had a look of disgust on her face.

"I CAN'T EVEN LOOK AT YOU RIGHT NOW! WHAT WENT THROUGH YOUR MIND HOOKING UP WITH A TEACHER? YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO THIS FAMILY! I HOPE THAT MAN GOES TO JAIL AND YOU? I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH YOU! YOUR RUINED OUR REPUTATION!" Byron raged.

Soon it was decided Ezra Fitz. Aria's soulmate was headed to prison for a year. Aria's parents were so angry with her they had decided to send her away. No goodbyes to Spencer, Emily, or Hanna. Especially no goodbye to Mr. Ezra Fitz. She was sent to a boarding school in Ohio. Where no one could possibly look for her. Not even Ezra. From that day forward Aria was changed forever-

(Normal time)

It had been over a year since Aria had arrived at this prison called boarding school. She wasn't allowed to express herself in anyway. So her hair remained flat and face remained pale. She wore the same white polo and blue skirt everyday. Ever since he had gone to prison. All of the life in Aria was sucked out of her. No electronics were allowed here but Aria managed to sneak in her phone.

Hanna: Hey how are you doing today?

Aria: What do you mean?

Hanna: Do you not know what today is?

Aria did know what day it was but didn't want to admit she did. Ezra had suffered a year for her in prison. He was being released into the world. April 27th was his release date. The day he could look for her. The only person worth suffering a year of his life.

Aria only had 2 more months of school. Then she would be free. Eighteen, the day she had been praying for ever since she was sixteen and fell in love.

Aria: I do... Could you see if he's ok? Like go to his apartment. It would take ease off of me.

Hanna: Of course.

Aria put down her phone and let her tears run down her face. Her parents didn't love her because she was in love. She didn't feel happy anymore. She wasn't the confident Aria Montgomery she used to be. She was a broken lonely Aria Montgomery. She didn't have very much interaction with the students here. Only a girl name Nina. They were friends but not as close to her as Hanna, Spencer, or Emily.

(Ezra's Release)

Today was the day I would be seeing the world from a year. I wonder if Aria will be at my apartment. I doubt it. She wasn't allowed to have any contact with me whatsoever. I knew it hurt her. Wes had picked me up and dropped me off at my apartment. The place hurt me even more than I could imagine. It had Aria written all over it. Her jewelry, her clothes, her shampoos and toothbrush. Everything about this place was her. I didn't know where she was at this moment but I was determined to find her. Even if it took me five years. I was planning on moving soon. I was supposed to. I found a job and I was ready to move on. My thoughts were interrupted by a light knock on the door. It was Hanna Marin.

"Hi Mr. Fitz. Um Aria wanted me to see you." She said picking at her nails.

"So you know where Aria is? Is she still here?" I replied a little to excitedly.

"No, her parents sent her away. I'm not allowed to tell where, but she misses you." She turns around and leaves.

Aria POV:

I wake up with same pit in my stomach every morning. I've gotten used to it but it still hurts. I look at myself in my mirror. Pale skin, flat hair, my nails are plain and chewed, and my eyes are blank. I slip my clothes on and place one piece of jewelry on. It's the only accessory I ever wear. It's a locket that Ezra gave me for my 17th birthday. It was me and him in our paper bags. On the outside it said A and E forever ' It was the only thing that I had left of him. Of us. I walk in to my English class. The worst class of the day. We had a substitute today I was guessing. I went to sit down in my seat ready to get the day done with. As the sub was calling out names his voice had a familiar ring to it. I really didn't care though. Why would I.

"Aria Montgomery?" The sub asked.

"Here." I said not looking up. I stared at my desk until I noticed everyone was staring at me. I looked up and saw him. My eyes lit up at the sight of his tight muscles that must have grown while he was in jail. I touched my rib where his name laid. My Ezra tattoo. He had one that said Aria on his back.

"I need to go to the bathroom." I blurted out. And ran to the bathroom. I couldn't believe he was here. I looked at myself in the mirror. My eyes were lit up like a child on christmas morning.

Ezra POV:

I stood there looking at the class. I heard the words that they were saying

"Did Aria Montgomery just talk?"

"I didn't think that was possible."

"Um. Ariel right?" I pointed to a girl in the front row.

"Yes."

"Do you mind checking on her for me."

The rest of the class my mind was a million miles away. Aria pulled a sick day. She was always good at pretending. The only thing that shocked me was her. Her hair wasn't curled, makeup perfected, and her nails were practically gone. Her arms were skinny and eyes had no life left in them. It surprised me that she didn't ever talk. She was so happy before I went to prison. My life shattered when I left her. It looked like hers did too. She wasn't allowed to be apart of the decision of where I went. If she were we would still be together.

Aria sat in her dorm. Her body filled with confusion, hate, happiness, and mostly love. How could he have found her? Did he do it on purpose? How were they supposed to be together? Could they after everything? She didn't know until she heard the doorknob turn open.
