It's A Secret Again

by ezriasecrets

When Aria and Ezra first met they didn't know Ezra would be Arias high school teacher, but he did. After all the drama that came with their relationship Ezra finally got a job at a nearby college, and they no longer had to keep their relationship a secret. But when Ezra is desperate for a job, he again becomes Arias teacher once again.

1. Back To Square One

"Aria! Aria! Wake Up!" I heard my brother Mike yell from downstairs, it was already seven in the morning and I had to be to school early for a make up in twenty minutes. As usually my brother was already dressed and ready for school sitting at the tv watching Bones.

Ever since my parents split he decided to turn all his anger into yelling at the tv or hitting someone with his lacrosse stick during practice. I felt bad for him, he was young and I could tell he couldn't take it anymore.

As I slowly walked down the stairs my brother threw my car keys at me with both of our lunches in his hand. He was obviously excited for something, although I couldn't imagine what it could be.

When we got to school I could already tell it was going to be a bad day, it was the first day back from break and I was tired as hell. Walking down the empty hall made me realize how much I didn't miss those long days of school. As I walked into my calculus classroom to make up a test I missed the day before break I saw Noel Kahn talking to Mona. This is never something you want to see, after the hell she put me and my friends through I was glad they didn't walk past me.

As I walked into first period English class this morning I noticed something different. I couldn't quite put my finger on it but the room felt more like home. As I sat down at my desk I noticed a worn out book on my teachers desk, I couldn't make it out but I could tell it was read a lot.

I've never felt so at home in a classroom for months. It was nice because I hadn't had a good day for weeks, my boyfriend has been acting weird for the past few days, all my friends went on vacation for Christmas and the evil woman my dad cheated with is my new teacher.

More and more students started to come in, making the classroom almost too loud. I scrunched down in my desk hoping my teacher would be sick today.

"Aria! How was our break?" I heard my best friend Hanna shout. We were joined by our other friends Spencer and Emily, both carrying large stacks of text books. We hadn't seen a whole lot of each other after the train incident.

Before I could answer we heard a familiar voice say, " Good morning everybody, I am your new old teacher". And at that moment I felt half the class looking directly at me.

It was back to square one.
