(A/N) I don't own anything, nor am I making any money of this. Read and Review
Ezra POV
He knew it was wrong, but from the moment she had walked into his English class he had been mesmerized. Not only by her beauty but also her intelligence. And he still was. Her capability of discussing the most difficult literary subjects and liked to read the classics didn't help diminish his attraction to her and he had soon found himself falling in love with her. Her and her little quirks.
He had fallen in love with her. His sixteen year old student. A girl so passionate and alive you couldn't help but be drawn to. And he was. Like a moth to a flame, willing to burn for her.
The job offer at Hollis had been perfect. Sure, he wouldn't see her everyday anymore but now he wouldn't be her teacher anymore. He could finally actively pursue a relationship with her. He had thought it out completely, he would wait for about two months and then run into her again. He would engage her in conversation and she would surely like him, he already knew she thought him to be cute, and the liking could be turned into loving.
His opportunity though came earlier then he thought it would, he was invited to a dinner party at the Montgomery house. The perfect opportunity for him to make Aria see him as a possible love interest. All of this put him where he was now, outside the Montgomery home with flowers and a bottle of good scotch to impress Byron and Ella. They were the biggest hurdle in all of this, especially with the fall out that had occurred last year. But he was confident he could get them to agree to him seeing their daughter.
The possibility that she may be dating somebody else didn't cross his mind, and if it had, not the possibility the guy would also be there tonight. He hadn't seen her with anyone else in school so logically she wasn't dating anyone. The possibility of her dating someone older she didn't go to school with had crossed his mind but always with him being the one she was dating.
Aria POV
Since I had come back everything had been a jumbled mess. First Ali's body was found and we started getting those texts from this A person and then my dad's affair came out. The texts from A had stopped, only after we had apologized to those we had wronged and explained what happened that night with Jenna. And my parents had gotten over my dad's affair and were back together. Ali's death still haunted me sometimes but I could deal with the help of someone special.
After Jason came back he and I started dating. It was so cute the first time he told me how he felt. I had liked him ever since I met him but never said anything since I knew Ali would have thrown a fit. But now, and this sounds horrible, we finally had a chance to try out us. So he would be coming over for dinner tonight together with some people from my dad's work. A couple and Mr. Fitz were our guests or as my mom said, Ezra. It was weird calling my ex-teacher by his first name but even weirder to think about having dinner with him, so I didn't. I thought about Jason and those amazing green eyes. I think they were the reason I liked him so much to begin with.
Anyways, I was trying to figure out what to wear as I wanted to look good for Jason. I eventually settled on a black dress that came to my knees and looked great with the neckline which was an upwards triangle. It would blow Jason away. I went downstairs to help my mom prepare the last things for tonight and then I was on my way.
Jason and I had decided to go together instead of him coming over to signal to everyone that yes, we really were together, and we didn't care what anyone thought about it because we were happy about it. It wasn't a long walk and soon I was standing on Jason's porch but before I could knock he had already opened the door for me. It was one of the things I liked so much about him, his ability to sense me near him. Even if he couldn't see me he would still sense me somehow.
Once I was inside I reached up to give him a sweet and innocent hello kiss but the second our lips touched all thoughts off innocence left me. Jason pulled me into him, one hand on my waist and the other tangling itself in my hair. My hands went up around his neck and I kissed him back passionately. Soon my back was up against his door and his hips were pressing into mine. Taking time to breath he pulled away a little.
"Can I just say I love this dress?" I simply giggled in answer and pecked him on his lips.
"You know we should get going, or were going to be late." Someone had to be the responsible one and my parents would kill me if I skipped this dinner in favour of making out with Jason. Even if that option would be far more enjoyable.
"Mmm, I would much rather stay here with you." So great minds really do think alike. "But I guess we should get going. Wouldn't want your father to start hating me." Even though I knew he was joking I also knew he still worried about my parents opinion. After he had first asked me out he had asked my parents' permission as well since he was older than me and they only knew him as the bad boy. So cute.
So in fear of being even later than we already were we headed for my house. When we got there I could see the cars of the other guests in the driveway and Jason cursed. We were late. Well accidents happen and there was nothing we could do now to change being late.
"You still sure you want to do this?" Jason asked me. I turned around to look at him and instead of answering him I kissed him, trying to put all my love for him into this one kiss. Jason responded just as enthusiastic and I knew I had gotten my message across, because even if we hadn't said so yet I loved him and I had a feeling he felt the same way. Maybe it was the way he looked at me, making my knees go weak.
"Okay, I think I have my answer." He said with a smirk and I resisted the urge to slap him. I may love the guy but he doesn't have to be so full of himself. Well let's get this over with and with that I rang the doorbell.
"Hello Aria." I heard as the door opened.
