I sat in math class anxiously watching the clock. My leg shaking up and down, a habit of mine, my hand was wrapped around the strap of my messenger bag. This was the longest 45 minutes of my life. I really wanted to get to my next and final class, AP English, so I could see my English teacher/secret boyfriend. I know it sounds wrong, I know it his wrong, a student-teacher relationship. But we met before school started at the bar, we instantly clicked and ended up making out in the bar bathroom not even an hour later. The first day of school was the next time I saw that gorgeous man from the bar who stole my heart. There was just one little problem, he ended up being my 10th grade AP English teacher. We tried breaking it off, but we couldn't stand to be apart from each other. So we decided to stay together but keep it really low key and not tell anyone. Of course my best friend Hanna knew though, I tell her anything and everything. It was really hard to keep it from Emily and Spencer though.
The sound of the bell brought me back to reality. I jumped up, threw my bag over my shoulder, grabbed my books and walked out. I got to my locker to exchange my math books for my English ones. I was always the first one to class. We had 5 minutes in between classes, everyone preferred to talk and be late to class. I'm not like that though, especially with English class. I maneuvered through the maze of kids in the hallways. Some were being thrown into lockers, some were fighting, most were laughing and I even saw a group of kids huddled together in the corner handing Caleb Rivers money, he handed them something in return but I couldn't see it.
I was probably the smallest in the hallway, being 5" 3', I tended to get pushed around a lot. I was almost at Mr. Fitz' room before I saw the football team come charging down the hallway, towards me. Before they hit me, I felt a hand grab my arm and pull me into a room. I watched out the door as the football players ran by, all at least 6" foot tall. I would have gotten trampled. I felt the hand release my arm, I looked up to see Mr. Fitz. I took him in, his curly brown hair and his deep brown eyes. He was wearing a white dress shirt with a blue tie that I bought him.
He flashed me my favorite boyish smile. "Hello." He said. I pulled him aside to where no one could see us. I put one arms around his neck, he laughed and put his hand on my hips. His warm lips met mine in a passionate kiss.
I pulled away and smiled my pearly whites. "Hello Professor Ezra Fitz."
He laughed and released my hips. I took my seat in the back row and one column over from the window. I was the only one in here so I asked how is day was.
He leaned up on his desk and whispered, "Much better now." He flashed me that boyish grin again. I laughed and probably blushed a little. I saw Hanna walk in with her little shadow Mona. Hanna flashed me a smile, ignoring what Mona was saying to her. She looked at me then to Ezra, then back to me. She puckered her lips and blew me a kiss. My eyes got huge and I mouthed "Stop!" back to her, looking at Ezra to make sure he wasn't paying attention. He wasn't.
"Hey Han." I smiled, acting liking nothing happened.
"Hey Aria!" she smiled. We both giggled a little as the rest of the class started piling in.
"Alright settle down," Ezra said standing up. "Good afternoon class" he said staring at me.
"Aria can I speak to you after class, please?" He looked at me with a serious look.
Before I could answer the final bell rang. Kids cheered and ran to their lockers to they wouldn't miss their buses. "Aria!" I looked over to see Spencer with Emily and Hanna behind her. "Want to do a sleepover tonight?" Spencer asked smiling.
I nodded and smiled, "Yeah, sounds like fun!"
The three of them smiled, "Awesome!" Spencer exclaimed. "The barn at 7." She smiled and walked out the door.
They were the last three to leave so I walked up to Ezra's desk and leaned across it. "Yes, Mr. Fitz?" I asked in a seductive voice. I smiled the second I saw his boyish grin, but then it disappeared.
"Nev-Nevermind." He said and went back to collecting papers around his desk into a neat pile.
My face dropped and looked at him, "What?" I asked him. "You can tell me."
He looked at me, "Oh, it was nothing I was wondering if you wanted to come over, we could watch a movie, I could make you my mac-n-cheese, you could have even spent the night." He gestured towards the door where my three best friends where. "But it sounds like you have other plans." I hopped off Ezra's desk.
"Aww, I'm sorry babe! I could cancel if you want?" I suggested.
"No! No, it's fine, go have fun with your friends!" he smiled and walked towards me. "As long as I get to see you tomorrow" he said wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my neck. I laughed. Life couldn't get and better than this, I was so happy. I had the perfect boyfriend.
"Maybe if you're lucky, you'll get to see me tonight and tomorrow." He made his way to my lips and kissed me, which shut me off for a couple minutes. He had to pull away for air. "I'll stop by before Spencer's and we can pick up where we left off." I smiled. I looked at him; he was staring at my neck with a serious face on. "What's wrong?" I asked.
He pushed my hair out of the way and pointed at my neck. "You have a hicki." I grabbed the mirror out of my bag and reflected it around my neck. I found the purplish black bruise. He let my hair fall to cover it. I could tell by his facial expression that he was thinking about last night too. Wine, music, and kissing, lots and lots of kissing. I looked at him and he had his hands on his hips as he paced back and forth. I jumped off his desk.
"Babe it's fine don't worry about it." I said putting my hand on his shoulder. He shook it off.
"You know Spence, or Hannah, or Emily are going to see that tonight." He was right. He looked at me. "Maybe you should tell them about us." He trailed off.
I looked at him surprised. "Ar- are you sure?" I could feel myself smiling a little bit.
He sighed. "I know this must be hard for you to hide it from them, especially Hanna." I felt a chill go down my spine. He didn't know Hanna knew. "They have to promise not to tell anybody, alright Aria? No one!" he said as I squealed and wrapped my arms around his neck.
"They won't! I promise! Ahh, thank you so much Ezra!" he smiled.
"No you have to come over tonight before Spencer's!" he smiled.
I smiled, "Whatever you want!"
He laughed, "Alright, get out of here, come over around 5?"
I grabbed my bag and ran out the door, "You got it!" I screamed down the hallway. I heard him laugh.
I packed up a couple pairs of clothes because I was going to go to Ezra's house tomorrow and probably sleep over. I pulled up to Ezra's apartment building and parked in back where no one could see me.
I left my bags in the backseat of my car and locked the door. My phone started ringing. I pulled it out of my back pocket and saw Ezra's smiling face on the screen. I laughed and answered it. "Hello cutie." I said walking towards the door.
"Where are you!" he asked pretending to be mad but he was joking. "It is 5:01 missy! You are one minute late."
"Oh shut up and open your door." I said knocking on his apartment door, 3B. He laughed and hung up. I locked my phone and slid it in my back pocket again.
The door opened and I saw my beautiful boyfriend standing there with a red rose. "For you miss." He smiled my smile and handed me the rose. I smiled and smelt it.
"It smells beautiful." I smiled and he pulled me inside his little apartment. He leaned down and started kissing me. I kicked the door shut with my foot as he picked me up. We spun around until we reached his bed. Still holding me and without breaking the kiss, he fell on his back onto his bed. I stopped him, mid-kiss, and leaned over to his night stand, I put my rose next to his lamp. He rolled his eyes and I laughed. He pulled me closer and started kissing me again. His hand tangled through my long brown curls and his other one on my lower back.
He licked my lowered lip and our tongues instantly started battling for dominance. I tangled my hand through his curls. He rolled himself over pushing me under him, still without breaking our long and passionate kiss. I started undoing his tie but then I felt my butt vibrating signaling someone was calling me. I stopped and reached for my phone. He looked at me and laughed "Really?" he rolled over onto his back next to me and sighed.
"I'm sorry!" I unlocked my phone, "Hello?"
"Aria? Where are you? Why do you sound out of breathe?" I froze when I heard my mother's voice. I looked at Ezra next to me.
"Hi Mom." Ezra stared at me, eyes widened. "Umm" I went on trying to think of a lie."
Ezra mouthed "School, you forgot a book at school."
I nodded, "I forgot a book at school that I needed for the weekend in my locker. I'm out of breathe because the janitor told me to hurry up so I ran."
"Oh okay." My mom said. "When are you coming home?"
"Well I'm going straight to Spencer's and Han, Em, and I are sleeping over." I looked at Ezra. He was staring at me, trying not to make a sound. "Then I'm going back to Hanna's tomorrow and we are probably spending the night their too." Ezra smiled and nodded. I prayed hoping this worked.
"Okay honey! Have fun!" I sighed a sigh of relieve. "Have fun!" she said.
"Thanks mom." I said quickly and hung up.
"So your sleeping over tomorrow?" Ezra asked putting his hands on my hips and pulling me closer to him.
I kissed him. "Only if you want me to."
He kissed my forehead. "I always want you too."
I leaned my head on his chest and he wrapped his arms around me. "I'm definitely the luckiest girl in the world."
He laughed and said, "I'm the luckiest man in the world."
The next thing I knew it was 6:30. I noticed Ezra was snoring so I slowly stood up and got a piece of paper. I wrote on it, I couldn't wake you, you looked to cute while you are sleeping. Text me. I love you so much. (: - Aria
I left the note on the pillow next to where he was asleep, where I was laying. I leaned over and gently kissed his for head. I picked up my bag and walked to my car.
