And in that moment I felt numb. Numb to the world, numb to the thought of my perfect Ezra being behind all of this. How could the goofy man that I love be the one who harassed me and my closest friends? All I could do was sit above him, with a mask in my hand and look into his eyes as my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach. "E-Ezra?" I asked, through tears I didn't even know that wear flowing already. "Aria.. Aria, it isn't what it looks like." Ezra whispered, with a hint of anger in his voice. With that, I calmly lifted myself off of the man I thought I knew and ran out of my own home
Heading towards the Rosewood park, I continued to run as far as my legs would carry my body. Was it all a lie? Was it all a practical joke to get closer to us? I'd find out. I would for sure and Ezra Fitzgerald would know that I was not some toy to be messed with. My mind flashed back to the events leading up to his reveal. It was about 6 A.M that I woke up this morning, with a uneasy feeling. Light already shone through my window, the day warning me it was time to awake. Mike and my parents had left around eight this morning for Mike's game, but I stayed home to do homework. That's the mistake I made. As I was doing homework in the living room, I heard someone up in my bedroom. Obviously I wanted to run, but hey, another mistake. When I opened my door, I saw him, I saw his frame. I knew it was Ezra, because I had been with him for the past several years, how wouldn't I know? We both actually just stood there for a few long seconds, and then he tried to run until I tackled him to the ground and pulled off the ski mask he wore. When I saw him.. Oh when I saw him, I died inside. My heart shattered into two, because I knew that he wasn't just hiding a surprise in my bedroom.
Coming back to reality, I sighed loudly to myself. What had I even done? Did it start out like this? Was he board shorts? No, he couldn't be after Alison. No way. But I'd find out. I wiped tears off of my face, because tears were for pathetic girls who cried over pathetic guys who broke their hearts. I looked around, seeing that I was at the park and I pulled out my cellphone, dialing the first number I could think of. I would get revenge, and I would get Ezra back for what he did. He used me. Nothing else.
"Hello?" I heard, from the unforgettable voice on the other line.
"Mona.. I need your help." I began.
