Author's Note: Hey I just wanted to apologize for not updating this story in sooooo long but I promise I'll be better with my updates from now on

The rain smacked violently against her window as she watched the street become encompassed by the water her mind solely focused on her current problem. She loved Ezra, that she knew for sure but she could love Wren, she could fall in love with him. Aria let out a quiet groan as she knocked her head against her window frustrated by the lack of progress she had made in choosing who she wanted to be with.

"Hello?" She greeted answering her phone not bothering to check the name which flashed on the screen her eye still firmly shut desperately trying to forget about her situation.

"Hi" Her heart fluttered at the sound of his voice as a goofy smile crossed her lips

"What do you want Wren?" She asked doing her best to sound annoyed in an attempt to cover up her true joy

"I thought you'd want to know that I found your shirt" He said giving a faint laugh "It was in the back of the car underneath your seat, I can bring it by if you want" He suggested lowering himself onto his couch resting his feet on the coffee table

"No need" Aria answered a smirk plastered on her face "You can keep it, think of it as a souvenir"

"How sweet of you" He chuckled

"Aria!" She turned her head at the sound of her name her heart practically jumping out of her chest as she watched Hanna burst into her bedroom her head completely drenched from the water "Oh sorry" She apologized after seeing Aria clutching her phone tightly to her ear

"Listen I have to go, but I'll call you later" She explained careful not to mention his name terrified over what Hanna would do if she knew she was talking to Wren

"Sounds good to me, perhaps I could take you out for dinner?" He asked praying that she would accept his invitation

"Sure, but remember it has to be.."

"Vegetarian" He finished

"Exactly" Aria giggled unable to contain her glee "Anyway I'll talk to you later" She said lowering the phone from her ear tossing it onto her bed turning her body to face Hanna who still lingered near the bedroom door "Why are you here?" She questioned her tone drastically different from when she was talking to Wren, the girl still angry at her friend for the way she reacted to the news about Wren

"I wanted to talk to you about what happened earlier today" She stepped further into the room taking a seat on the edge of Aria's bed shifting her feet nervously beneath her

"Well I'm not interested in talking about it" She snapped crossing her arms firmly over her chest sending Hanna her best death stare

"I wanted to apologize, I'm sorry for how I acted I was just surprised" She explained wringing her hands together her eyes locked on the floor the blonde to scared to look Aria in the eyes

"Han you treated me as if I were a criminal, all I did was kiss him what's so bad about that?" She lied conveniently forgetting to mention how she had also slept with Wren

"I know, I'm really sorry" She repeated finally lifting her eyes to meet Aria's "I just think you were…"

"I was what?"

"I think you were missing Ezra and you turned to the next guy you knew, sort of to compensate for losing Ezra"

"Number 1" Aria began lifting one finger in the air for emphasis "I haven't lost Ezra, and two you make it out like I'm some slut who throws herself at guys"

"I didn't mean it like that, I just….." She said her voice stuttering as she searched for her words clueless to how she was going to get herself out of this tough spot

"You know what Hanna I honestly don't care, just get out!" She yelled jumping to her feet gesturing towards the door a furious look etched upon her face "Now!"

"Aria"

"Get out!" She repeated raising her voice only seconds away from forcing the blonde out of her room

"Please…I want" She stuttered slowly making her way towards the door Aria following closely behind her

"I don't give a crap about what you want!" She stated slamming the door violently in her face before throwing herself onto her bed burying her head beneath one of her many pillows doing all she could to shut out the world

She felt terrible. She never meant to hurt Aria like that, in fact she didn't want to hurt her at all. All she wanted was to help her, to show her that what she was doing was dangerous not only because she was threatening her relationship with Ezra, but also because of the possibility that Wren was A. They didn't know for sure if he was the one behind the hoodie, but there were dozens of signs pointing to him, signs that apparently only her and Emily could see, maybe they were the only ones that wanted to see the signs.

"Han?" Emily questioned opening her front door surprised to see her friend standing on her porch "What are you doing out here it's pouring!" She said grabbing Hanna's arms and pulling her inside quickly wrapping a towel around her body desperately attempting to dry her off "What's going on?"

"I think Aria hates me" She breathed rapidly tears escaping her eyes

"Don't be ridiculous" Emily said rubbing Hanna's back gently doing her best to comfort the tearful girl "Aria could never hate you"

"She does" She cried dropping onto the couch allowing her head to fall into her hands

"Emily?" Someone called the sound of footsteps increasing as she approached the living room "Em?" She whispered hoping to catch the girls attention motioning silently with her hands as if to ask what was going on

Emily didn't answer instead lifting one finger in the air silently letting her know that she would be there in a minute, there alone time having been cut short by Hanna's sudden appearance

"Toby!" Spencer yelled into her phone rolling out of her bed in order to pace across her room as she usually did when she was anxious "You just got back! Why the hell are you leaving again?"

"I told you, it's for work" He explained as he had the first few times Spencer not wanting to believe what he was saying "It's only for a few days I'll be back before you know it"

"Do you even understand how hard it is when you're gone? When I constantly have to look over my shoulder because I'm terrified that A will attack cause you're not here to protect me" She heard her voice crack as she pleaded Toby to stay only feeling safe with him around "Please please don't leave"

"Spencer I have to" And with that the conversation was over Toby not bothering to say goodbye or attempt to further explain himself instead simply leaving Spencer to wrap her mind around the news

"Aria" She cried into the phone wiping away her tears quickly never feeling comfortable showing her emotions "I need you"
