I kept waiting, on edge, for a text, but nothing came. I put it out of my mind for the time being and just focused on Aria and our blossoming relationship. I invited her over for a movie night and let her pick the movie. She picked some awful foreign film with subtitles, but honestly, I was more interested in watching her. Although our relationship was still growing and it was, I'll admit, quite unconventional, this girl had completely captivated me. She was wise beyond her years and she had a magnetic pull on me. I had never felt anything like the attraction I felt for her. Not just physical, but her entire being. She had an air of sophistication and an aura of innocence that coupled together to enchant and bewitch me. Lost in my thoughts about how I had never been so enraptured by a woman, I began thinking about what would happen if anything ever did happen to her. My heart literally ached at the thought of losing her; of losing this love that I cherished. We had not been together long, but I knew that our love was unlike anything I had ever experienced. I would never find another love like Aria Motgomery. Aria, looked over at me completely lost in my thoughts.

"Are you even watching this movie?" She asked with a sly smile crossing her lips "Because if you are not watching this, I have a better idea"

Returning her sly smile and all sorts of ideas playing out in my head, I responded "oh, what did you have in mind?"

"We need a picture of the two of us together" she stated matter-of-factly.

This was not really the idea that I had in mind, but she looked so cute and so determined, that I could not say no to her. "I want a picture of my boyfriend, Mr. Fitz, so you have to wear this" she said as she handed me a paper bag.

"Can I at least draw myself a sexy, brooding, bad boy smile?" I asked grabbing a sharpie intending to draw myself onto the paper bag. "And, if I have to have a bag on my head, so do you. I tossed her a sharpie. "Better yet, you draw me and I'll draw you."

She set to work drawing my face onto the bag, glancing up every once in a while to study the contours of my face. She noticed that I was done in seconds and frowned at me. "If you don't want to do this, you could have just said so" she said, her full lips turning down to pout.

"It isn't that!" I said earnestly "I am just finished. Here, take a look for yourself", I said handing her my bag.

When she saw the bag, she immediately threw her arms around my neck and kissed me fervently on the mouth. Rather than drawing her face and falling short to capture her stunning beauty with my amateur artist skills, I had written "I love you, Aria Montgomery with all my heart and I will do anything for your love, even take a picture with a paper bag on my head". Although I knew that I was in love with her for quite some time, I had not expressed it to her yet. I did not just want to blurt it out awkwardly. For such an amazing girl, it needed to be a perfect declaration. While writing a note on a paper bag may not seem perfect, it suited Aria perfectly. It was quirky, beautiful, and simplistic, exactly like Aria. And, based on the kisses she was littering all over my face, she felt the same way.

"I love you, too Ezra Fitz and I know you would do anything for my love" she said looking up at me with her big doe eyes.

At that moment, I knew that I had never had a more perfect moment in all the world. Not only did I tell Aria that I loved her, but she loved me in return! It was the kind of moment that you wish you could freeze and bottle up, treasuring forever. I knew I had given Aria a gift far better than a picture of the two of us. I had given her a beautiful memory that she could keep in her heart.

I looked over at here relishing in the perfection of the moment, when I felt a slight vibration in my pocket.

"You didn't think I forgot about our arrangement, did you? You want Ms. PaperBag to keep breathing, it is time to do as I say"
