Hey, new multi-chapter! I was in the mood to write some fluff so this is what I came up with. I'm uploading this tonight, and then tomorrow morning I'm going away for a few days so I'll try to write some more (on top of homework-.-) and then I'll update when I get back. It's not a super long chapter but there's only so many times that I can write about them kissing lol. I really hope you like it; this story will probably be a light one, it's easier to write and makes me happy. Haha.

Anyway, hope you enjoy!

"You want us to go to England?" I stared at him in disbelief. We still hadn't told my parents about us but Ezra wanted me to meet his parents, who lived on the east coast of England.

"Yes. I told my parents about you and they're so excited to meet you... Please, say yes?" He looked at me, his beautiful brown eyes filled with as much love and excitement as a young boy on Christmas morning.

"Wait, you didn't tell them about, you know, us, did you?" I hoped he hadn't told his parents about our parent/teacher situation. Even though I wasn't ashamed of it, I hadn't met them yet so I wasn't sure what to expect from them. Were they the kind of parents that love and support anything their child does? Or were they kind to ship their son off to America without a second thought?

"Oh no, of course not! I just told them that I was in love with an amazing and gorgeous woman whom I would love for them to meet,"

"I love you," I said with all sincerity in response to his compliments, "but what about my parents? I can't exactly admit to them that I'm going to England with my former English teacher to meet his parents."

"You said that Hanna and Emily were going camping for a week, right? Couldn't you

tell them to cover for you?"

"I don't know..."

"Please, Aria? Just think; a whole different country, nobody knows who we are, we can be together for a whole week, no questions asked."

I could see that he was eagerly awaiting my reply so I smiled and whispered, "Okay. I'll go text Han."

I was just turning to retrieve my cell phone from my purse when he grabbed me by the elbow and turned me to face him, crushing his perfect lips against mine. He pulled back, drew a breath and smiled again as he leant back in for a second kiss. "I can't wait."

"Me neither, but it's not going to happen unless you let me grab my cell." I smiled and fumbled through my bag till I found it, I texted Hanna.

Hey, Han. Ezra wants to take me away for a whole week starting tomorrow, ok if you cover for me? X- Aria

I pressed send and was amazed when a reply came almost immediately.

Sure thing. Have fun with Fitzy; just make sure not to wake your neighbours at 2 in the morning, if you know what I mean ;) -Hanna.

I laughed. Typical Hanna, she was always making jokes about Ezra and I being together in that way. I could tell that Ezra was looking at me so I turned and spoke sarcastically, "I know I'm undeniably cute and loveable, but there's really no need to stare at me like that, Ezra."

This time, he chuckled and walked over to me, slipping his warm hands around my waist from behind. He rested his chin on my head, the height difference was that large, and I closed my eyes. It was not very often that we had moments like this, with all the sneaking around we have to do, so when they happened it was essential that I savoured them one hundred percent.

"Well, you are cute and lovable...but you really wanna know why I was staring?"

"Sure. Unless I have a huge zit, or pizza sauce on my chin. In that case, I'd prefer you just pass me a napkin."

This time he didn't laugh or make any noise at all, he simply turned me around and held me close to his body. "I was staring because you were laughing. I love your laugh; you seem to glow whenever you smile. You're beautiful, Aria."

I was slightly shocked; he was never usually like this. He wasn't normally this outspoken, but I liked it. I decided to tease him a bit, "Oh please, I'm hardly a Kate Moss look-a-like."

"Why would you need to look like a model to be beautiful? I'm glad you're not super skinny and don't have twigs for legs."

"Well, it's not just that. I mean, I'm a little podgy here and there, and I'm very short for my age. I'm surprised you haven't gone back to Jackie by now. At least you don't get leg cramp kissing her."

My attempt at teasing him was obviously working. He moved his hands slowly up to my face and held them there, cupping my cheeks. "Damn it, Aria. You are the most stunning and wonderful girlfriend I could ever wish for. Just seeing your face across a crowded room brightens my day, you're the only reason I get up in the morning, the only person that can put me in a decent mood after a crap day at Hollis and the only person I want to have any kind of future with; I love you, Aria."

I could feel my cheeks turning red and so to hide it I laughed nervously and said "Thanks, handsome. Now are you gonna come and kiss your beautiful girlfriend or what?" And that lead to more kissing and making out in his apartment, as we had done so many times before.

When we parted, it seemed to be getting late so I decided it was best for me to get home. I collected my belongings and walked over to the door before saying a long goodbye to my boyfriend.

"Just so you know," he said as I stepped outside of apartment 3B, "even if your parents don't let you go 'camping', I'm kidnapping you and taking you anyway."

I smiled lovingly, "I wouldn't have it any other way. Good night, Ezra."

"Good night, Aria."

How was it? Please review this for me, even if you can just tell me how I could improve. Like I said, I'm away for a few days so I'll update as soon as I get back. Just so you know, I'm going on holiday to the place where Ezria visit in this story;]

Thanks for reading!

xo, Bethany.
