Season One: Episode Two: The Jenna Thing

The weekend passed in a haze after the very, very confusing kiss. Monday morning, I was walking down the hall, grading some last minute assignments, when I saw her.

"Can I talk to you?" Aria asked. As usual, she had an outfit that normally wouldn't go together but looked perfect on her.

"Yeah, of course." I tried to contain my smile as I stuck the assignments underneath my arm.

Taking a deep breath she said, "I'd like to transfer out of your class."

Maybe she finally realized

The smile fell from my face as I looked around before saying, "Can you come inside, for me, please?"

I opened the door for her as she walked inside and I followed after her before closing my door.

"I understand where you're coming from. I just wish you could stay in the class."

"This isn't an easy decision." Aria started.

"But, I feel like it's the right thing to do." She added.

"I can keep my feelings in check." I tried.

"Yeah, well, I can't. And even if I could, I don't want to. It's too hard sitting in this room every day and calling you Mr. Fitz. I can't pretend that I don't know you. Will you sign it?" She handed me the form.

Aria had listed the reason of request as: Conflicting interests disrupt classroom. I looked it over.

"Are you sure?" I asked, sounding desperate. In a way, I was. I couldn't imagine class without Aria. Her intelligence and maturity was what I looked upon when she walked in.

"Yeah, yeah I'm sure." She nodded.

I looked at her for a long moment before I signed the paper and handed it back to her.

"Thank you."

I simply nodded. She opened the door to let herself out.

As soon as she did, students started filing in and I could already feel that there was something missing.

I took off my jacket, pushed up my sleeves and began writing on the board.

"Okay, let's take our seats." I said as I turned around. The bell rang and then Mona Vanderwaal walked in, phone in hand.

"Am I late?" She asked, looking around.

"It's- its Mona, right?" I asked. She tucked her phone into her bag and smiled.

"That's right, Mr. Fritz!" She said happily. The class started to laugh and she looked at everyone.

"What?"

Even I was laughing, "Take your seat, Mona, please."

She went to go sit next to Hanna Marin, one of the girls who was with Aria at Alison's funeral.

"It's Fitz, not Fritz." Hanna whispered to her.

"Oops." Mona said.

I grabbed a couple of papers off my desk and started to hand them out.

"To Kill A Mockingbird represents the idea of innocence. What characters are innocent? Take a second, jot down your ideas, we'll discuss." I said as I handed out papers.

Then, SHE walked in. She left the declined form on my desk before continuing to her own.

I dropped the paper and pen I was holding and picked up the form. DECLINED was in bright red and in that moment I'd never been happier. I looked at her and she looked right back with a small smile.

The next day, I decided to go out to a movie. I saw Aria standing outside the movie theatre, looking as if she was waiting for someone.

"Aria!" I exclaimed

She smiled and opened her mouth to say something but another woman came up and linked arms with her.

"Mr. Fitz! This is my mom, Ella."

Ella stuck her hand out for me to shake.

"Mr. Fitz, the new English teacher?" She asked as we shook hands.

"Yeah, yeah. It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Montgomery." Was my hand still shaking? No, now it was my whole body.

"Call me Ella. We're a very informal family. Are you going to see the movie?" She asked.

"Yes. It's one of my favorites."

"Aria's too. She's told us a lot about you, but she left out the 'you're very young' part."

"The movie's about to start." Aria cut in and I threw her a "Thank you" glance. Was it just me or was her mom hitting on me?

"We'll see you inside, Mr. Fitz." The two of them walked inside together and giggled over something.

I walked inside soon after and completely skipped the row Aria was sitting in.

"Mr. Fitz! Why don't you come sit with us?" Aria looked at her mom scared and then back at me.

"Uh, yeah, ok." I said as I sat down next to her. You could feel the tension in the room.

The movie was interesting to say the least and when it was over, I said my goodbyes and left.

My phone beeped signaling a new message. I read it and smiled.

That was very interesting.

I GOT A HEART! Wait now, I sound like a school girl. Whatever, I GOT A HEART FROM ARIA MONTGOMERY! LIFE IS GREAT! ( I was feeling really silly...)

The next day, I was driving home from school when I saw Aria, soaking wet and holding a coffee cup. I drove past her and saw the pained look in her eyes.

I drove a little further until I opened the passenger door for her. She ran in and shut the door. I started driving and then pulled up to an abandoned road.

We looked at each other for only a moment before we attacked each other's lips.

In that moment, it didn't matter if she was my student or if I would go to jail.

In that moment, she was my Aria and I was her Ezra.
