Who Knows Where the Time Goes?

"Woah," I exclaimed as I heard the thunder clap outside the window.

"It's ok," Noel said with his brilliant smile that had made my stomach do flips since grade school, "I can play louder."

"Hey!" I exclaimed when I realized what song he was playing, "I know that song, my parents listen to it…or they used to."

Noel shot me another butterfly ensuing smile as he continued to play the song. I sang along softly, knowing the lyrics by heart from hearing my parents listen to it my entire life.

"You have a beautiful voice," Noel said softly as he put his guitar down beside him and leaned towards me.

"Thanks," I said shyly, knowing what was coming next.

I had imagined and dreamed about what my first kiss with Noel Kahn would be ever since I could remember, but lately all my thoughts had been directed towards a different boy – a man, really, Mr. Ezra Fitz.

I felt Noel's lips gently crush against mine as his hands lightly touched my waist, pulling me closer. I wrapped my arms around his neck and tried to focus on the kiss, but it just didn't feel right for some reason that I couldn't quite put my finger on. Noel's hands started to wonder up towards my breasts as our kiss became more passionate. His tongue softly prodded against my mouth, asking for permission to enter. I quickly obliged and felt our tongues tangle as my fingers knotted in his hair. Noel's hands cupped my shirt-clad breasts as I softly sighed into his mouth. My hands ran down his neck and past his shirt as I felt his muscular back. I felt Noel's hands slip under my shirt and next beneath my bra. I gasped when his fingers came into contact with my skin in a place that no one ever had before. I was still a virgin, and didn't know how far I was willing to let this go.

"Mr. Kahn….Ms. Montgomery," I heard a voice say testily - I heard my Ezra's voice.

My head snapped up to see Ezra catching us in a compromising position. Noel's hands were still down my shirt and touching my breasts, our faces centimeters away from each other.

"They want everyone in the library," Ezra said as calmly as he could muster considering the circumstances.

I watched Noel get up to leave, glancing back at me to see if I would follow.

"I have to ask Mr. Fitz a quick homework question," I said easily. Lying was becoming second nature to me at this point.

As soon as Noel's footsteps had faded Ezra closed the gap between us,

"Aria," Ezra began, "What? What would have happened if I hadn't come in here?"

His face was a mixture of hurt and disgust as his blue eyes bore into mine, waiting for an explanation that I didn't quite have.

"Ezra," I reached my hands out to grab his, but he moved them away, "I'm sorry. I thought that you had just left – you were applying for jobs in New York? What was I supposed to think? You were trying to leave me! Nothing was going to happen with Noel…"

"Aria!" Ezra exclaimed as he grabbed my face with his hands, "I wasn't trying to leave you, I was looking for you! I figured that if I found another job then we could be together. I just didn't expect to come back and find you and Noel Kahn hooking up in the band room."

I stared at him in silence before he began again,

"We've never even gone that far, and you just let him feel you up like that? Do you want us to be over?" Ezra shook his head as he walked away from me and turned his back on me.

"Ezra," I pleaded as I walked towards him, "I was going to stop him because it didn't feel right. When he kissed me it didn't feel like it does when I'm with you. I want my first time to be with you because I want it to feel right, and I only feel that way when I'm with you."

I bit my lip as I awaited his answer. I was met with his lips crushing against mine as his tongue immediately wandered into my mouth and began to run over mine smoothly. His hands held my waist securely as mine gripped at his short but curly hair.

"What's going on here?" I heard a voice say from the doorway.
