Jason DiLaurentis walked into his house and slammed the front door. Livid wouldn't have even come close to how he was feeling at that point in time. He and Ian Thomas, a guy who had been a good friend in high school, had gone at it again. Ian kept saying he knew something about Alison that Jason didn't. That was one thing that really set him off, ever since he had gone to rehab he and Ali had gotten a long a lot better, but he did know that she still kept secrets from him.
Turning around to face the couch he saw a little brunette staring at him, "Aria? Where's Ali?" he asked calming down.
"I don't know. She stepped on me when she snuck out." Aria told him.
"She stepped on you?"
"Yeah. She was in a big rush to get out of house."
"Do you know why?" he asked joining her on the couch.
"No, she was on her phone and kept saying she was leaving in a minute and that no you weren't home."
"Probably going to hook up with Ian like she did in junior high."
"I don't think it's Ian. Spencer told me that Melissa gave him ultimatum."
"Hmm. Well it's not Garrett." Jason said smiling.
Both knew that Alison despised Garrett Reynolds with a passion.
Aria Montgomery had been sitting in her best friend's living room when the front door had swung open and Jason had come in. He had slammed the door with so much force that she was surprised it didn't break. Watching him she could tell he was angry about something but she didn't want to make it worse by talking so she just sat quietly and hoped he would notice her. See Aria has always had a crush on Jason, but since he is Ali's older brother he is off limits, but that didn't stop her from enjoying the time she got to be around him.
"Is everything okay? You seemed pretty livid when you came in." Aria asked scooting closer to him.
Jason just looked at, "Yeah. Ian and I just got into again. He seems to know what Ali is doing." He told her.
"Oh."
"I thought Ali and I had gotten past keeping stuff like this from each other. But I guess not."
"I'm sorry Jason."
"It's not your fault Aria. Ali is just being Ali." He said rubbing his neck and shifting his shoulders.
"I may know a way to help with that." Aria said nodding to his shoulders.
"Really?"
"Yeah you just have to lie on your stomach on the floor." She told feeling her face flush.
Jason just looked at her and cocked an eyebrow upwards, but did as she instructed. Aria took a deep breath and got down on the floor and straddled Jason's back.
Laying down Jason had no idea what to expect but he knew that Aria would never try anything with him because of her friendship with Ali. That was the funny thing because Jason was fairly certain that he felt the same way about her that she did about him. There had always been something about the small brunette, who was now massaging his shoulders and neck, he had never quite figured out what drew him to her but something did. Aria's hands felt small compared to his body but in a good way. He was beginning to have problems concentrating on anything other than what she was doing with her hands. Soon the tension that he had been feeling in his neck and shoulders went away and he relaxed, but Aria didn't stop.
Jason moaned slightly when Aria shifted her position to put her knees on his back. He felt the pop and he was about done. Soon he felt something different, it was soft kisses against his neck. Closing his eyes he couldn't believe that Aria Montgomery was kissing his neck, but he didn't want to embarrass her so he let her.
Hearing Jason moan had Aria feeling confident so she laid on his back and started to kiss his neck. She noticed that he closed his eyes so she began to nibble on his ear lobes and let her hands wander along his sides. Before she knew what was going on Jason was above her.
"Aria." Jason said out of breath slightly.
"Yes?" she answered innocently.
"We can't do this."
"Why not? I've wanted to kiss you since I was 13." Aria told him honestly.
Jason didn't need any more motivation. Slowly he lowered his body down to Aria's and met her lips with his. They were soft and full. Pressing down he heard her moan. Tracing her bottom lip with his tongue Jason rubbed her hips through her sleep shorts. Aria opened her mouth and Jason slid his tongue in and felt her hands go into his hair.
When Jason's lips met hers Aria couldn't believe he was kissing her. She had wanted this to happen for the last 3 years. Feeling his body press against her gave her a sensation she had never felt so she moaned and Jason gently pressed down again. While Jason's hands were wondering her body she figured out that it was good to moan because he kept pressing into her. Letting him stick his tongue in her mouth was a good different. She liked the feeling of his hands on her hips, but when he started to move them up her shirt she stiffened.
Feeling Aria stiffen below him had Jason slowing down. He had no idea how far Aria had ever been with a guy and he wasn't about to pressure her. Moving his hands out from under her shirt he felt her relax and deepen the kiss. Jason let out a low moan when Aria gently bit his lip, he had never known her to be an aggressor but he loved that she was in that moment.
Needing oxygen Aria gently broke her kiss with Jason. He responded by placing his head in the crook of her neck and shoulders and kissing her collarbone gently. She giggled feeling his hair against her ear. She loved the feeling of Jason being on top of her and the way he was so gentle.
Pulling away Jason sat up and pulled Aria on to the couch so they could both catch their breath and relax. He did not need his parents or especially Ali coming in and seeing him on top of her. Aria automatically snuggled into his side as he grabbed the remote. The sat for several minutes not talking and just watching as Jason flipped through the TV channels. Aria played with Jason's hand for a couple seconds before lacing her fingers with his.
Snuggling into Jason wasn't hard for Aria. He made her feel safe. There was something about him that had always drawn her in, even when he had been using and drinking. He had never frightened her like he had the other girls. Holding his hand she knew she had to ask.
"Jason." Aria said quietly.
"Hmm."
"Can I trust you?"
Jason shifted and looked Aria, who had put her head into shoulder to look at him, "What's going on?" he asked worried.
Aria climbed onto his lap and straddled it and laid her head against his shoulder, "My parents are getting a divorce because my Dad had an affair and I knew about it but didn't tell my Mom." She told him burring her face in his shoulder.
"Aria it's not your fault their getting divorced. It's your Dad's." Jason told her wrapping his arms around her.
"But I feel like it is my fault. If I had told my Mom, maybe they could have worked it out." She choked.
Lifting her chin, "This is not your fault. You can't control how your parents act any more than I can control how Ali acts." He told her wiping away a few straggling tears.
Aria just wrapped her arms around his neck and held on tight. The two didn't talk much the rest of the night. Aria stayed on Jason's lap and he made no noise to make her move. He didn't mind holding her it was reassuring to have someone trust him.
It wasn't hard to tell when Aria fell asleep, her arms went slack against his neck, she snuggled into his chest more, and it sounded like she was purring. Jason couldn't help but smile at the sound or the girl in his arms. He had seen her in a completely new light that night and he liked it, more than he should have since she was one of Ali's best friends but he didn't care. Slowly he started up the stairs towards Ali's room, but once he got there he changed his mind. He didn't want Aria to have to deal with Ali whenever she came back so he laid her down in his bed.
Aria knew she was being moved but she didn't mind. It was nice to have someone other than Mike know about their parents. She knew that Jason wouldn't say anything because he cared about her. When she felt her head hit the pillow she knew she wasn't in Ali's room. Startled she sat up and looked around. She had never been in Jason's room, none of them had. It was dirty like she had imagined, but clean and everything looked to be in a place. Actually it reminded her a lot of her room, organized clutter.
Jason came out of his bathroom to Aria sitting up in his bed, God I like that image, he thought, "You okay?" he asked trying to keep his body in check.
"Yeah, why didn't you lay me down in Ali's room?" she asked sleepily.
"I didn't want you to have to deal with her when she decides to come home. So I laid you down in here."
"Oh."
"You okay with that?"
"Yeah as long as Ali doesn't find out." Aria told him scooting over so he could join her on the bed.
Jason hadn't intended on sleeping with Aria, but when she scooted over he knew that she would come cuddle with him where ever he slept. Sliding between his comforter and sheets he pulled Aria into him and smoothed her hair when she relaxed. Soon he was having problems keeping his eyes open and gave into sleep with the small brunette in his arms.
