Aria put her phone away quickly and went to join the two men. She felt awkward standing between her ex-boyfirend/teacher/roommate and her current boyfriend/past enemy .
Ezra, Toby and mone of the movers, the one she hadn't spoken with pulled the couch out of the van and began to carry it inside. Ezra stopped them to speak to Aria, "Do care where anything goes?" He asked.
"I want everything back exactly where it was," Aria said looking up at him.
"Yeah," Ezra let out before they began walking again. The couch was obviously a burden on him.
Aria laughed a little at the sight, then followed them inside for no particular reason.
They finished late in the afternoon, and the sunset found the three olf them leaning against the kitchen counter, exhausted.
"Well, um thank you for helping," Ezra said to Toby shaking his hand.
Toby jusdt nodded, then turned to Aria, "I should go."
"Okay," she smiled, and it stung a little to see Aria look at someone else the way she used to look at Ezra.
Toby took Aria's waist and pulled her in for a kiss, "I'll see you tomorow," he said putting her down and sweeping a strand of hair behind her ear.
Aria bit her lip, "See you tomorow.' Toby pecked her once more on the lips, then again, "Okay, okay. Go!" Aria said turning him around and shooing him out.
"Okay, i'll go," He pecked her once more on the lips then left.
Aria returned to the counter and picked up a can of soda she'd left there.
"So, you're boyfriend.." Ezra said looking down.
"Yes,' Aria said trying to push through the boxes on the kitchen floor to get to the one with the food.
"Ah," Ezra said with a nod.
"Ezra, what'd you expect? For me to wait four years for you?" She said slamming her hands on the counter.
"No, but," Ezra stopped with a deep breath, planting his hands on the counter, "Were you even going to tell me?"
"Of course."
"Really? 'Cause it didn't seem like it this morning when you were asking him to leave." Ezra said angrily.
'I didn't think it was agood idea to tell you right nolw, when we were dealing with bigger things!"
"Oh, yeah, speaking of which, Why didn't you tell me?"
"What? That I got an abortion?" In case you didn't notice, you were in jail!" Aria said slamming the counter.
"Well, more to the point, why didn't you keep her? You made a big deal about her before I got caught?" Ezra said throwing his hands up.
"You were gone for four years, Ezra. I would have been alone with her for four years!"
"So what? I get taken away and suddenly Madison didn't matter anymore?"
"Would you stop talking about her like she exists, 'cause she doesn't Ezra. She's not real."
"You were the one who made the big fuss over naming her that! Do you remember what I wanted to name her?" Ezra yelled getting more furious with each sentence between them.
"You know what? That's it. I'm leaving," Aria said struggling her way throught the boxes.
"What?"
She stopped at turned at the door her hands up, "I thought I could do this but I - I Can't. I just can't," She said turning to the door and grabbing her jacket as she said the last sentence, "I'm gone." And she stepped out the door backwards turning and slamming it hard behind her.
"Damn it!" He yelled hitting the counter so hard it hurt.
