A/N Just a quick one shot. I thought I'd write this little story, with everything coming up in PLL and when I heard this song I fell in love. And because I'm departing for New York in a couple of hours :) . So Sorry for mistakes, I'm excited and sleepy.

Song- Birdy Without a Word.

thanks for all the support guys :) hope you enjoy.

feel free to catch me on twitter.

I don't own PLL, and if I did God I'd want to tell you who A is so badly.


Hey you can tell the world

That you're leaving.

And you can pack your bags

And spread your wings.


Aria Pov

I stood in his apartment, hoping that what I'd heard wasn't true, but staring at his packed bags neatly on the floor, every word of it was true.

"so your leaving me."

I was longing, for him to tell me no. Looking for a smile his eyes. But the steady intake of breath gave me my answer.

"Aria, I'm not leaving you. I am just taking this job opportunity, it was a big deal for me, and with your dad putting in a word, how was I to explain my no."

I couldn't believe it, my dad had done this. Maybe I should have seen this. But how could Ezra, not tell me, if I hadn't visited my dad at Hollis today, he'd have left. My anger, was tearing me up, boiling in my blood.

"Well you can go. I'm not about to stop you. You can pack your life up here, and head for better things. Don't let me be the little girl, from your English class be the one to stand in your way"

I desperately tried to keep my composure. My anger however was evident.

His eyes looked up into mine, engulfing them, in love. But what he was about to say was anything but loving.

"Aria, your making this harder then it needs to be. You know, you're not just some girl. But we both need to move on."

I all of a sudden ached, like I was going to be sick. Everything was now spinning. Was he really saying we were over. I couldn't bring myself to ask, but I was damn sure. I wasn't going to beg him to stay.


And you can tell them all

That it's over

But while you wave goodbye

I'll be getting closer.


"SO that's it then, they win. WOW Ezra, I really thought you'd fight for me. SILLY SILLY ARIA HUH ? But it's okay you can leave, tell everyone it's over. HEC you can shout it from the roof tops. But as you leave, getting further away from Rosewood, I'll follow you, maybe not physically. The memories of us, will haunt you. Just like they do to me."

Ezra looked at me from that moment, hurt and confused. I knew I'd contradicted myself, in some long winded way, I hated him right now, but my heart was still quietly screaming about love, and not letting him leave.

"Aria, again please don't make this harder. I'm leaving, and you'll move on. You'll move on quicker then you know. A few months ago, you were falling for Jason, and I was still here. So I don't think you'll have a problem. This is something that just needs to be done. Done for you, and done for me. This was wrong from the beginning, not emotionally but morally. What did we think would happen, when we told your parents Aria. They'd help us, against the world. We were stupid, and careless. And I'm tired. "

His voice was still so serious, yet lying in under tones of hurt and anger at the mere mention of Jason's name. He couldn't help himself in bringing him up.


And you can tell the world

That you're tired.

But your excuses, they won't work

Cause I know that you're lying.


The way he was, quickly making up excuses lying to me. Lying to me point blank. How could he do this, deny himself of his true feelings.

"Ezra, why are you doing this. This isn't working, I know you love me, your words may say different but the truth lies plain in your eyes."

After he relaxed. His eyes softened, flashing many emotions and I took hold of his hands. Our touch was warm, and loving. Nothings changed his words were his head talking, his so called "sense" and not his heart, no not his emotions.


Every time that I see your face

I notice all the suffering.

Just turn to my embrace

I won't let come to nothing.


I continued to tell myself, he has tried to break it off before. I can see his conflictual feeling along with his hurt. In the early day of our relationship, I'd seen it nearly everyday.

"Ezra, I know you are suffering, and I'm sorry I went after this. I wanted you. You've told me so many times how wrong it is, but then you've told me so many time it's right. Right now I want to, talk to that side, the side that believes in this, in us."

I lent over softly placing a loving kiss on his lips. Lingering my lips in front of his mouth, hands snugly wrapped round his neck.

"Ezra, *sigh I won't let you believe this is wrong, and I know you don't. I won't let you bail out, and I sure as hell won't let you get hurt. You are an amazing person and you mean the world to me."

our eyes were locked so intensely the passion, and need to kiss was evident. Heat was emitting from both our bodies.

I thought for sure, he was going to kiss me but when he didn't move, and his gaze simply dropped. I knew I had to say something, quickly before I lost him.


Stand there and look into my eyes

And tell me that all we had were lies.

Show me that you don't care

And I'll stay here

If you prefer

Yes, I'll leave you

Without a word.


"Ezra, look at me. Look into my eyes, tell me now. Tell me to move on, tell me you don't care. Tell me what we have is wrong. *SIGH . Tell me that its over. And I'll pick my things up right now, I'll leave, without a word making this no harder."

I was looking into his eyes, so deeply searching trying to predict what was about to happen. Tears spilling over my cheeks, freely falling. He hadn't made a move. He doesn't care this is it, it's over. My breathing was erratic, and my tears were uncontrollable. All of a sudden I wasn't made I was distort. I thought I knew him. I thought I knew he loved me. I guess you can never be to certain, of anything. I quickly let go of his neck, removing myself from this embrace. Walking toward the door... a force pulled me round, so quickly I didn't truly understand, what was happening until his tongue begged for entrance along my bottom lip. Passionate and desperate we embraced each other. I never wanted to let go, but he simply stopped. Looked into my eyes and whispered against my lips.

"Aria, I love you with my everything, don't you ever forget that. You understand me better then anyone, I've ever known. I will never stop loving you."
