Okay! So here is the argument. I will say that towards the end it does get a little footloose inspired, considering I just watched that movie, if you've seen the movie then you might pick up on it, you might not, whatever! Anyway, I hope you enjoy it!

"You son of a bitch."

Ezra stood frozen in the doorway of his office, not sure of what to say. He knew he should deny, deny, deny, but wasn't really sure what he was denying. Surely Byron hadn't watched it. Did he?

The pair stood in his office neither moving and both staring each other down defiantly. Byron huffed a breath, deciding to break the silence, "You know, you really make me sick. Exploiting young girls-"

"It is not girls, Byron, its girl, Aria is it. And might I add that it was her idea. Not mine." Byron opened his mouth to say something, coming towards Ezra with his finger shaking, when he was suddenly interrupted.

"What's going on in here?" asked Arai walking into the room, surprised and nervous to find Ezra and her father in the same room at each other's throats.

"Aria Montgomery, I think it would be in your best interest to go home and go to your room and wait till I get there." She scrunched her eyebrows accusingly at her father. "What exactly have you pinned me for this time dad? Damn, it seems like anytime you're around me now you just want to form me into this little ball of a person that you want me to be. So what did I do that so horribly wrong this time?"

"Aria, he found our little…," Ezra looked over at Byron's menacing gaze and faltered for a moment, "thing, on my computer."

She stood terrified for a moment not sure of what to think. God, now her parents knew she was having sex. Oh, god he'd actually seen her having sex. "Ughh, Dad, you watched it? Do you realize how sick and demented that is? I can't even-"Byron quickly cut her off. "I didn't watch all of it, only the beginning." He lied hoping they would never discover what he'd actually seen. "But I saw enough to understand what was going on. How could you allow him to do that to you Aria? You can tell me honey, if he's forced you in any way I-"

"Dad," Aria began sadly, tears beginning to brim her eyes, ", he was far from forcing me. Why can't you just see that I am as much in love and at fault as he is?"

He shook his head taking her hands in his looking her in the eye, still seeing the little girl with pigtails and a red Popsicle stain on her face. "The Aria I know…would never…" his sentence fell short and Aria looked up at him. "Your right Dad, the Aria you know wouldn't. Your still trying to hold onto the little girl version on Aria. It's time for you to see this Aria Dad. You've been so busy trying to keep me inside this little bubble you've created for me, that you haven't seen how much I've changed."

He continued to look down, not saying anything, not really sure what to say. Aria stood for a moment before scoffing and walking over to where Ezra had remained frozen and unmoving this entire time.

"Well, none of that changes the fact that you have done…that. What were you thinking? Anyone could see it, he could post it somewhere…"

"Dad! Ezra would never do that. It was meant for his and my eye's only, but obviously there are peeping Toms on the loose!" she suddenly turned to look at Ezra. "Did you have it pulled up watching it?"

He shook his head no. "I had the e-mail pulled up though."

"Why would you do that Dad. You can't just go snooping through peoples e-mails." Byron quickly became angry, flaring his nostrils. "I can when my teenage daughter is sending her ex-teacher e-mails, when I know there is an established history between the two. Now Aria, come on we are going home to discuss this. And you." He said pointing at Ezra. "You just pack your stuff and get the hell out of Rosewood."

Aria stood defiantly beside Ezra with her arms crossed. "No, I'm not leaving."

"Aria-" said Byron warningly. She still continued to shake her head, when Ezra pulled her close looking into her tear brimmed eyes.

She looked up at him, knowing full well what he was about to say, but wishing he wouldn't. "You should just go Aria. He'll be more cooperative later if you cooperate now." She closed her eyes and looked down, biting her lips and nodding her head that she understood. He lifted up her chin and gave her a small peck on the forehead before she was forcibly jerked from his grasp by her father.

She looked back at him desperately and gave a small wave before following her father down the corridors of Hollis.

Aria walked into the front door of her house, slamming shut the door and staring straight to her room before she was stopped by her father's booming voice telling her to come back downstairs. She turned around on the stairs but didn't make any moves to come down there. "Why should I? Your just going to end up telling me to go to my room anyway."

"Aria Montgomery, come down here now." Aria walked down the stairs to see her mother coming out the kitchen asking what was going on.

"Well Ella, our daughter has been doing more behind our backs than we thought." Ella looked at her daughter wide eyed as her father explained the details of their afternoon. "Now I'm going to ask you again Aria, did he force you into this?" Aria just rolled her eyes, "Answer me."

"Byron, stop it. We don't even know what the circumstances are. I'm not saying it wasn't irresponsible but…"

"Our daughter has been assaulted Ella." Aria shook her head walking up to her father. "I have not been assaulted. Completely far from it! What Ezra and I did was…was…beautiful, and damn far from forced. The only reason we did the video, was because of all the bull shit that you've caused!"

"You lower your voice and talk in a civil tone."

"Why? Isn't this home? Where you always told me that I could come and talk about my problems? Because I've stayed quiet for too long, and it's about damn time that I started standing up for myself."

Aria slowly took a breath and tried to hold back the hot tears that were inevitably going to spill over. "Before Ezra I was so lost. I was losing my mind; I didn't have a clue what to think, because my whole world was falling apart. And even though I had one more secret to keep, it was worth it because I finally had someone that I could confide to.

"We were being responsible by telling you, and not allowing you to just find out. I expected fallout, but never this. I realize we kept it a secret for a very long time, but hell, seeing how all this turned out I wish we'd never told you! At least then I would still have my boyfriend."

"Aria-"

"No. You can't even see how upset I am without him. You don't even care."

"Of course I care," he began walking up to her, taking her hands in his. "We don't expect you to understand everything we do that's intended to keep you safe." She flung her arms from his grasp, yelling at him.

"Oh, stop it! I hate it when you treat me like I'm a child."

"Well, whether or not you like it young lady, you are my child."

"I'm not a little girl daddy. I'm obviously not even a virgin." Byron began shaking his head slowly, rubbing his forehead. "Please don't talk like that."

"Dad, you practically forced me to do it. I just couldn't stand the thought of him going away without it."

"I'll kill him."

Aria moved in close to her father's face, begin sure to look him in the eyes. "Well Dad, what are you going to do, fire him? Cause that sure as hell didn't keep him out of my panties, even though I probably would have let him in them anyway. " Byron reared back and slapped Aria across the face. She stumbled backwards holding her face, inching away from her father who was already coming towards her spilling out apologies.

Aria was already walking away, running out the door and deciding to go on foot to Ezra's apartment, to attempt finding a small bit of sanity to hold on to.
