"Jake. Leave you can't be here!" Aria exclaimed her eyes rounded with fear. As she backed up on the bed.

"I can go wherever I want. And I will" he spat.

He rushed towards Aria a sick grin plastering his face.

"Why did you leave me Aria?" Jake asked touching her cheek.

"I… I…. I…" Aria stammered tensing at the touch.

Jake lunged towards the bed and yanked Aria up by her hair.

He threw her into the wall knocking down the pictures that were up there. As they hit the ground glass splintered everywhere.

Aria was curled up in a ball on the floor. As Jake kicked her face. Blood trickled down her forehead as cuts formed on her face.

"WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME ARIA!?" he demanded. Picking her up and shoving her into Ezra's television which toppled over and smashed on the floor. .

"You. Were killing me" Aria cried.

Jake grabbed Aria's wrist and yanked her up throwing her on the bed.

"We haven't had fun in ages!" Jake complained unbuttoning top and gagging Aria. Aria cried muffled tears as he ripped off her clothes

"You WILL enjoy this you-" Jake was cut off by the sound of Ezra opening the door.

"Aria?" Ezra called "What happened in here?' he asked walking fully into the apartment. He wandered to his bedroom where he saw a man on top of Aria.

He could hear her cries even though they were muffled and immediately ran to the man and yanked him off Aria. He couldn't help but remember the first time he had done this and it pained him to remember the awful day at the school.

Ezra repeatedly punched Jake in the face until blood splattered out. He fell on the floor crashing into a table.

"If you ever come here again I will KILL you literally!" Ezra spat.

Jake stood up and scrambled out of the door. Leaving Aria crying on the bed and Ezra standing in the middle of smashed apartment.

Ezra finally remembered what had just happened and ran to Aria's shaking body.

" . Aria it's okay I'm so sorry" Ezra soothed stroking her head. But at the touch Aria shrank away from him cowering on the bed.

"Aria…" Ezra started. He hated Jake so much he made Aria afraid of everyone even him. He would never ever hurt Aria because he loved her conditionally.

"I'm sorry" she cried.

"For what baby? It's not your fault." Ezra asked.

"The… the… TV" Aria sniffed looking up.

"Aria. I don't care about the fucking TV. I care about you" He said softly.

Aria leant against Ezra as tears fell from her eyes. Ezra knew she had been through so much and to be attacked and raped while recovering would send her spiralling down again.

After a while she fell aisle and Ezra carefully put her down on the bed and covered her with a blanket.

"I love you" he whispered planting a kiss on her bruised face.
