After the request of haylzxo11 I've decided to continue Aria and Ezra's story and show how they work their problems. Hopefully they work things out on the show too. (; Hope you like it! BTW: reviews make my day!

I don't own PLL :(

Ezra POV

It's been a hell of a week. I went from being devastated when I saw Aria with Jake while I was with Maggie and Malcolm to being ecstatic when she told me she missed me. I promised her then that we would work through our problems and find a way to be together again. The truth is, I was about to tell her the same thing. That girl is the best thing to ever happen to me. She's so smart, creative, and not to mention beautiful.Even after everything she's been through with Alison and A, she still finds a reason to smile. She's got to be the strongest woman I've ever met. Hell, she's stronger than me.

Even though we've decided to get back together, there's still the fact that I'm her teacher again and, technically, it can't happen. I've told her before that we won't go backwards but truth be told, I think we have. It's like my life is a long flash of deja-vu. We can't let Hackett see us together or I will get fired. We can't let her parents see us together because most likely her dad will get me fired. But, at least we have a lot of practice when it comes to sneaking around. I'm abruptly taken from my thoughts with a light knock at the door. Smiling inside and out, I go to open the door knowing it's Aria.

When I open the door I'm mesmerized by her beauty. From her brown hair falling perfectly in curls, to her doe eyes, and even to even her cute nose. I don't understand how I made it so long without having her next to me. "Aria." Is all I can mutter before pulling her into my apartment. "Welcome home." I say while wrapping my arms around her small body and nuzzling my face into her hair.

"It's so good to hear that. I've missed it here." Standing up on her tippy toes she wraps her arms around my neck and pulls me into her lips, letting them linger on mine. "And I missed that." She continues, smiling.

"Hmm, you're not the only one." I kiss her one more time and grab her hand, walking her over to the couch. She immediately climbs into my lap like all the times before.

"So, what do you want to do today? It's either watch movies or, uh, well that's really it." When she sees the look of guilt on my face she just giggles and adds, "Ezra, it's okay. I don't mind staying in here. As long as I'm with you, I don't care where we are." Lacing her fingers in with mine, she leans over to connect her lips with mine once more. This time, the kiss quickly heats up and before we know it we're pulling away gasping for air.

"I can't believe I let you go. After that kiss, I don't know how I managed to stay away."

"Ezra, you don't need to worry about that anymore. We both let us go, but now, we're here, and it's just the two of us, and it feels good. So let's forget the past and live for these moments right here."

Cupping her face with my hands, I pull her lips to mine to show her just how much I love her and don't ever want to lose her again. I feel her hands grip the back of my neck, pressing me closer to her, deepening the kiss. Her tongue lightly sweeps my bottom lip and soon we're battling for dominance. It's the most intoxicating kiss we've ever shared. This kiss is the deciding factor for me; I will never let anything tear us apart again. I don't care what it is. My mother, Maggie, or even that Jake guy.

Pulling apart ever so slightly, I just stare into Aria's beautiful hazel eyes and I see so much love and compassion. I'm seriously the luckiest guy in the world that she chose me.

"I love you Ezra."

"I love you too Aria. Forever."

Aria POV

I'm awoken by sunlight pouring through the window and an arm wrapped tightly around my waist. When I look over I see the man of my dreams sleeping next to me, slightly chuckling like he usually does when he goes to bed happy. I just can't take my eyes off of him. From his curly brown hair to the striking blue eyes hidden behind his eyelids at the moment to his passion for everything to do with English. I hate that we drifted apart for the small time we did but we're together now and that's all that matters.

"Hmm, good morning." I hear Ezra mumble still trying to wake up. "Did you sleep okay?"

"Of course I did. I had you next to me. I missed having your arms around me."

"I missed it too." His eyes slowly started to flutter shut until, alarmed, he sits straight up with his eyes wide open.

"What's wrong!?"

"Wait, your dad's going to know you didn't go home last night. Crap! I wasn't even thinking. Oh, we're screwed. I'm sorry Ar-"

"Ezra, Ezra, hold on." I say trying to calm him down. "It's okay. I called Spence. She's covering for me. Before you ask, she doesn't know what I needed her to cover for, she just did."

"You, Aria, are amazing. You've thought of everything. And by the way, if you want to tell your friends about us you can. I know how close you guys are to each other"

"I know, it's just easier I guess not worrying if they'll slip up around my parents or at school. You know we have to be extremely careful now at school. As in basically ignoring each other so Hackett doesn't suspect anything."

"I know, it just sucks. So if I ignore you, you won't be upset with me?"

"Of course not. Same here. Oh, and no more me staying after class. That whole school knows about our past and if anyone sees me in your room besides when I'm supposed to be, we'll get caught. I couldn't live with myself if you got fired and weren't able to take care of Malcolm."

"Aria, don't worry, we'll be fine. You don't need to worry about my son. You just need to worry about you."

"And you. Don't forget that I'll always worry about you." Suddenly, a sly thought crosses my mind. "Which, right now, I'm worried if you don't take a shower soon I won't be able to handle doing this." I say just as I grab the back of his neck and pull him into a kiss.

"Hmm…I think you need one too." He says with his boyish grin I love but that means he's up to something.

"Ezra, what are you—ahhh! Put me down!" I can't help but laugh when he throws me over his shoulder and takes me into the bathroom and puts me in the shower, fully clothed. He's just too fast and before I know it he's turning on the water. "That's COLD! What are you doing!" Ezra's already doubled over in laughter when he sees I'm not mad, just freezing. When he's not looking I grab his arm and pull him under the water with me.

"Aria! This is not what I had in mind." He half said, half laughed.

"What about this?" Grabbing the color of his shirt I pull him close and bring his lips to mine. I feel his hands at the hem of my shirt. I feel him hesitate, silently asking permission. Never breaking our kiss, he slowly unbuttons the dress shirt of his I put to sleep in. Not the most practical thing to sleep in but now I'm glad I did. I do the same to him and so on until there's nothing left. The feel of his hands on my waist and my hands around his neck is pure bliss. It's one of the things I've missed the most, even from before we broke-up. It's been a long time since we've been this close and I never want to be apart again. I know it may be difficult for us, at least until I graduate, but we love each other so much, that we can try.

There it is! The first chapter to my first multi-chapter story! Again, please review and tell me how I did. (:
