Author's POV
Aria Montgomery has just graduated from Hollis College; she now has her English degree. As she was packing up her old dorm room, there was a knock on the door. Aria knew it was Ezra because he told her that he had a big surprise for her, but he obviously couldn't tell her. She loves surprises, but she can't ever contain her excitement when it comes with Ezra, he's always full of surprises. Aria opened her door; Ezra took her face in his hands and kissed her passionately. "Mm, that's a nice way to greet your girlfriend," Aria purred. Ezra chuckled and took her hand in his. "Ready to go see your surprise, babe?" Ezra asked. Aria jumped up and down like a five year old who is on their way to Disney World. "Could you give me a tiny hint to where you're taking me?" Ezra shook his head, "Sorry doll, not going to spoil the surprise for you." as they walked out of the dorm, they saw Aria's parents walking by. The four of them glanced at one of another, Ezra smiled and kissed Aria. Byron and Ella's faces raged of anger. Ezra leaned down and whispered in Aria's ear "Love doing that." Aria just giggled as the continued their way to Ezra's car. As they were driving, they were getting further and further away from Rosewood. There were more trees. They were more in the country side of Pennsylvania. "You're not kidnapping me, right? Cause if you are, im going to jump out of the car." Aria asked, jokingly. Ezra rolled his eyes playfully and chuckled. "No, Aria. I am not kidnapping you. But if you should know, I grew up around here." Ezra told her as they turned a corner and drove down a long street. There were houses that looked like mansions. "Ezra, where are we? Graceland?" (A/n Five points if you know what movie that's from!) Ezra didn't say another word, they turned into a long drive way. Aria's eyes lit up with amazement. "Damn. Is this where you grew up?" Ezra got out of the car and went around the car and opened Aria's door for her. Aria stepped out onto the pebble driveway. Ezra took her hand as they walked closer to the big white house. An older couple walked out of the house and stood on the wooden porch. "I didn't expect you for until later." The older women said. "Yeah, but I couldn't wait, anyways mom and dad. This is my girlfriend, Aria Montgomery." Ezra said proudly. Ezra's parents smiled at Aria. "Nice to finally meet you, dear. We heard a lot about you!"
After a few minutes of small talk, Ezra's mother took them into the house to take a tour. When they walked in, they were standing in the foyer. A Cinderella staircase was off to the right of them; The house contained of a kitchen, dining room, living room, 3 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a front and back porch, two study rooms and an in-ground pool in the backyard with a water fall falling into the clear blue water.
After the tour of the house, Aria pulled Ezra off to the side.
"This house is incredible! I wish we could live here!" Aria exclaimed.
Ezra smiled down at her. "Funny you said that."
Ezra gestured his parents to come over to them. "Mom, Dad. Can I have the house key now?" Ezra asked while holding out his hand.
Aria raised her eye brows at him, while she started putting two and two together. "Wait, are you saying that this house is ours?" Aria asked, giddily. Ezra kissed her forehead.
"That's exactly what I'm saying." Ezra grabbed her hand. "Happy belated birthday, baby." Aria's mouth dropped as she jumped into Ezra's arms. She wrapped her arms and legs around Ezra tightly as she began kissing him repeatedly. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Ezra's parents smiled at the two of them. "Well, we'll leave you two be. If you have any questions, just call." Ezra's dad said.
Aria hopped down and gave them both a hug. "It was nice meeting you!" Aria exclaimed. "And thank you so much for the house. It's truly incredible!"
- Two weeks later -
Ezra and Aria started unloading the boxes of their things while the movers carried Ezra's black sofa into the house. As Aria settled the boxes onto the floor of their new house, Ezra came up behind her and grabbed her waist. Aria stood up and turned towards him while she wrapped her arms around his neck. "I can't wait until all of these boxes are unpacked. Then we could officially call this our home." Ezra whispered into her ear softly. Aria blushed as Ezra kissed her on her baby soft lips. As they pulled away from each other, Ezra kissed Aria on her tiny nose. "I love you, Ezra." Aria said to him. "I love you, too, Aria."
It was past 7:30 PM, and Ezra and Aria just finished unloading the boxes. Ezra took Aria in his arms bridal style. "Ooh, where are you taking me, mister?" Aria purred. "You'll see."
Ezra carried her up the stairs and down the white hallway. As they approached their bedroom door, Ezra opened it with his foot and then settled Aria down on the ground. Aria looked amazed as her eyes traveled around the big bedroom. Their king sized bed was made with white sheets and big fluffy pillows. Aria sighed happily and took Ezra's hand in hers. She ran over to the bed, jumped and spun in the air, landing softly onto the fluffy pillows. She let out another satisfied sigh as she closed her eyes. Ezra stood at the door way, smiling happily. "Aren't you coming?" Aria asked while she patted a spot next to her. Ezra smiled once again and imitated Aria; he ran over to the bed, jumped like a little girl and spun in the air and landed next to Aria. She bounced a little off the mattress as Ezra landed. She giggled and crawled on top of his stomach. Aria kissed little trails from his chest all the way up to his lips. Ezra moaned softly as she made her way up to his lips and their lips were connected. Ezra placed his masculine hands on her hips gently; He tickled her sides, where he knew she was the most ticklish. Aria's laugh filled the room as Ezra continued to tickle her. "Babe, stop!" she whined, playfully. Ezra rolled on top of her, he pinned her down to the mattress and pecked Aria on the lips. "I win." Ezra said. Aria bit her lip, seductively. "Round two." She said before her lips covered his and her tongue slid into his mouth. Aria bit Ezra's lip softly and playfully. Ezra let out a small moan, making Aria smile through their kiss. She had one more trick up her sleeve. Aria rolled her tongue, making a purring sound (A/N like in Spanish when you have to roll her tongue to make the "R" sound)
This little game went on until they couldn't handle it anymore.
As the sun rose, Ezra's eyes fluttered open. He looked down at a sleeping Aria and untangled their arms. He slowly got out of bed, trying not to wake up Aria. Once he got out Ezra slipped on his shirt and walked into their closet where he hid a tiny black jewelry box. He crept back into the bedroom and saw Aria take his pillow and pull it towards her while she wrapped her arms around it. Ezra sat at the edge of the bed and started to kiss Aria's forehead, cheek, nose and lips to wake her up. Aria's eyes opened slightly, when her vision became clear, Ezra slid a silver ring onto her finger. The ring had the infinity symbol, which was aligned with tiny diamonds. Aria's sleepy eyes woke up more when she looked down at her finger and noticed the ring. "Ezr-.." She started to say, but Ezra interrupted. "Aria Montgomery, I love you more than life it's self. The first time I saw you sitting on that bar stool when we first met, I thought to myself 'This girl is pretty cute,' but when we started talking. We shared the same interests, and really connected. Once our relationship started, I knew it didn't look right. But I didn't care, it felt incredible. No one gets me like you do. Not even my parents. Anyways, I love you so much. Will you be Mrs. Montgomery-Fitz?"
Aria covered her mouth as her eyes started to water. She shook her head in the "yes" motion before words started to form. "I would love to!" she said. Ezra's boyish smile came about as Aria crawled into his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. Aria kissed Ezra's face all over. "I love you, Aria." Ezra mumbled as she pulled him into a tight hug. "I love you, too, Ezra." they both pulled away and gazed into each other's eyes. Ezra pushed Aria's hair behind her ear and they both smiled. Ezra leaned in and kissed Aria on the lips gently as they both started to lean back on the mattress ...
