**So I fancied a change from writing Aria's tale so I started this aswell. Its similar to the pilot episode, but won't fully follow that storyline. Hope you enjoy!**
He had never taught before. Ezra Fitz was fresh out of Hollis College and had just applied for a job teaching English at Rosewood High. Of course he never expected to get it, Ezra had the shock of his life when the confirmation letter arrived in the post. Now he was sat in Snookers Bar, a bag of nerves, the day before he was due to start. 'Can I get another whisky please?' he asked, surprisingly calmly. The bartender simply gruntled and slid a glass over in less than a minute. 'Cheers,' he replied, never tearing his eyes away from the page he was reading. That was until he heard her voice.
'Can I get a cheeseburger please?' He immediately looked up. Her voice was so beautiful; as was she. Her hair was chocolate brown, almost black, long and wavy and fell just past her shoulders. Her eyes were just lighter than her hair - hazel and so easy to get lost in. Her fashion sense was far from mainstream, she obviously didn't follow the normal trends of fashion. He liked it. No, he loved it. He loved everything about this girl, and he had only been aware of her presence for a matter of minutes. He wanted to hear her voice again. It was so soft but very distinct. Well here goes nothing.
'I've never seen you around here before, do you come here often?' Ezra asked.
'No not really. It's my first day back here, me and my family have been in Europe for a year,' she replied. Her voice sent a shiver down his spine. Ezra was curious to find out more, and continued his questioniong.
'Where in Europe?' was his next question.
'Iceland. My dad had a sabbatical there. Hey is that Leonard Adams? I love him! Well, his writing,' she said enthusiastically - gesturing towards the book underneath his glass.
'Yeah it is actually. I've read it so many times im surprised its not ruined really.' The conversation was flowing pretty well now. And not only was she beautiful, she was well travelled and she loved his favourite author. Could this girl get any better?
'I wish I could write as well as Adams. I've wrote a few things for myself but nothing as good as his work,' she sighed. The answer to the question Ezra had just asked himself was yes, she could get better. Now he knew she wrote, she was well travelled and she loved his favourite author. Oh, and he mention she was beautiful; the most beautiful girl he had ever laid eyes on.
'Maybe you should let me be the judge of that sometime...' he suggested with a shrug.
'Yeah, maybe. So what else should I know about you then?' Aria looked deep in the eyes and from that moment on, Ezra knew she felt the connection between the two of them aswell. He moved himself onto the stool beside, sliding his book and drink along the bar to join him. Out of the blue she placed a hand on his leg and traced a pattern up to his hand. She intertwined her fingers with his, and Ezra placed a hand on her waist. Aria put her hand on his cheek and pulled his head down to her height. She planted a light kiss on his lips and pulled away. He lingered for a moment before pulling her in again for a deeper, more passionate kiss. By this time the bartender had gone through the back to check on Aria's burger. They were the only two in the bar. He moved his other hand to underneath her leg and lifted her off of the stool. Ezra carried her to the bathroom and sat her down on bench. Aria forced her tongue through his lips and slowly began to explore the inside of his mouth. He pulled away for a moment and lightly chuckled before locking his lips back onto hers. Their make-out session lasted for around five more minutes, before Aria pulled away suddenly.
'You're a damn good kisser,' she panted out, breathless from the effect his kisses had on her. 'Although it would help if I knew your name?' she giggled.
'You're not too bad yourself. And Ezra by the way, Ezra Fitz,' he smiled back at her. Their eyes met and locked onto each other. For a moment it was almost as if they were about to start all over again. Ezra quickly glanced at the clock. 'Oh shit I'm sorry I have to go!' he exclaimed as he noticed the time. 'I'm starting this new job tomorrow and I need to sort a few things out. Look here's my number, call me please?' he slightly begged her as he thrust a piece of crumpled paper into her hand.
'You kiss me like that and then have doubts that I'm going to call you? Oh and good luck with your new job,' she wished him as she hopped off of the bench.
'Haha, I hope to hear from you soon then? And thanks, I'm sorry for having to leave like this,' he stuttered.
'Just go before I give you a reason to stay,' she replied, rolling her eyes in the process. Ezra smiled at her before he left the bathroom. A woman walking past the door stared at him as he left the ladies but Ezra didn't care, not after what just happened in there.
**Please, please, please review and tell me what you would like to happen. It does follow what happens in 'Pilot' slightly but I'm putting my own twist on it. I will be continuing Aria's Tale as well as this one so please read, review and share both!:) Thanks!**
