I have to say, thank you to everyone who reviewed this story. Your AWESOME... I don't know how to thank you.

Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with Pretty Little Liars.

As the weeks followed, that dreadful day. Aria still isn't talking to me, but she and spencer made up. And now, on this very over casted day. I'm in my office grading papers. Well I'm not really grading them, just day dreaming. Thinking of the very first day, aria walked into my office! Looking at the couch and thinking, of the first and few times we blessed it. That's what she called it.

A knock to the door, brought me back to reality "Ezra?" Byron walked in "Are you okay?"

I shrugged "It doesn't matter, anymore" I faked a smile "what can I do for you?"

Byron sat down, and started to stare at his finger's "I'm going to tell you something, that I never told anyone."

"Okay, should I be scared?" I asked worriedly

"Nope, but it might help with Aria." Byron looked up at me. "back when Aria was sixteen. Aria caught me cheating, that's why she has trust issues. When it comes, to people like us guys. I had Aria, keep it a secret for over a year. Before Ella found out." Byron took in a deep breath. "Aria is good, at putting on a front. But I know it's killing her."

"Byron, you didn't have to tell me this."

"Yes, I had to. I know you love Aria, and she love's you. I've known you for year's Ezra, and I know my daughter. And the way, the two of you look at each other. I've never seen you look at Jackie, the way you do her." Byron shook his head "Just try talking to her again. Please, The spirit Aria once had is gone. I just want my baby girl back. She's so stubborn"

"Believe me I know, but how am I going to talk to her. She moved, and I don't know what else to do."

"She moved to Rosewood Heights Apartments. 2D" Byron smiled.

I smiled, I finally gotten a piece of information..."Ezra, there's a tornado happening, and we have to get to the library basement now" jackie ran into the room.

"What? Are you serious?" Byron looked Scared "I have to find Aria, if anything happens to her..."

"I'll find her, I'm sure she's alright!" I stood up from my chair. While Jackie looked pissed. But who care's!

"Let's go Jackie" Byron pointed in the direction ofthe library, while I ran to Byron's office.

I ran straight to Byron's office, but Aria wasn't there... Frustration grew fast upon me. As I searched every hallway till I reached the parking lot. The winds grew much havier, and hail started to touch ground. I ran back into the building, and grabbed my cell from my shoulder bag. I started to call Aria, repeatedly but no answer. So I started to think, of all the places Aria likes, to go to on Hollis campus. And ran toward the Art's building... Once I turned the corner, I yelled out Aria's name. repeatedly...

"ARIA?" I yelled as I entered the Art room, every window had been shattered "SHIT! ARIA?" I yelled out again.

"EZRA!" a faint yell, came from outside "Aria" I said as I saw her running toward me. "Aria we have to find shelter, the tornado could come any second now." I grabbed her hand...

"NO" she yell "I have to find Lily" Aria started to call out, for someone named lily.

Aria's POV:

"Aria we have to get out of the open... And who's Lily" Ezra is worried and confused.

"Ezra please" I started to begged "Help me find the homeless puppy. She's around here somewhere, please " I started to cry.

Ezra looked at me for a few seconds "Alright, hurry... I think I know where to find her." Ezra grabbed my hand again and we ran toward the back of the Art's building, next to an old shed.

"Lily!" I yelled out and she came running out, from behind a rose brush. "Lily thank god!" I exclaimed.

Ezra then took the puppy from me and took hold of my hand, as we ran toward Hollis gym. The nearest building we could see, with the doors facing us. Easy for entrance.

Once inside we made our way, downstairs and toward's the locker rooms. And realised we were the only one's there... "Everyone must be in the library basement" Ezra stated as he grabbed a towel and started to wipe my arms and working his way up to my face.

"Thank you, for helping me" I said and took a seat in the corner of the room.

Ezra put Lily down, and she ran right to me. "Of course" Ezra smiled and got another towel for himself "when did you get that?" he pointed to my leg.

I looked down and saw, blood gushing out. I'm guessing with all the adrenalineand frightness, I didn't even feel the glass enter my leg. So I shrugged " i don't know... " I told him. "I'm so scared Ezra" I said as I started to cry.

Ezra then came and sat down beside me" Were going to be fine, Aria I promise. I wont let anything, happen to you!"

I looked into Ezra's beautiful blue eye's, and realized I made a terrible mistake. He saved our lives tonight. How could I ever doubt him? A bark from Lily, broke me out of my shame ness. "I'm sorry" I whispered.

Ezra looked at me confused "What are you sorry for?"

I took in a shaky breath "For breaking up with you, I -"

"Aria don't. I understand now, why you did it. your father told me what happen, when you were sixteen." Ezra cut me off.

I nodded "ever since i saw, my dad's affair. All I could think about. was everyone's a cheater, and during my senior year. The guy I was seeing proved me right, He cheated on me... When I saw you and Jackie, I freaked out. Memories of everything flooded back."

Ezra's POV:

"Aria" I whispered and took hold of her free hand, Whilst the other clutched the puppy "I would never, intentionally try to hurt you. You have nothing to worry about. I love you, too much to even think it." I told her

Aria smiled "I love you, too. I'm sorry, I know I can be stubborn. and it takes a life and death situation, for me to learn my lesson."

I laughed and nodded my head "I'm just glad your, safe. But it was wroth it... We're safe and we saved a life" I smiled and took the puppy from Aria, she started to lick my cheek...

"How'd you know, where to find here?" Aria asked as she petted her back.

"Well, I saw her a couple of weeks ago. When I was walking to my car one night, so I've been feeding her. She loves my ham sandwich" I smiled

"Me too, I come in extra early. Every morning and feed her." Aria giggled.

"I followed her one day, and she ran toward the rose-bush. I think she likes it there, So I started to call her rose" I laughed "How'd you come up with Lily?"

Aria giggled "I like the flower... Maybe we should call her Rose-Lily?"

"Or Lily Rose" I suggested

Aria shrugged "Either way, it's find with me"

"I really missed, you Aria" I said as I looked her in the eyes "Can we start over?"

She stared at me for a few minutes, before slowly shaking her head "I can't" She whispered...

I felt like my heart, had been shattered all over again. "Why not?"

Aria then started shaking "I'm leaving Remember? I already Told the Dean..."

"If I talk to the Dean. Would you at least consider, Staying in rosewood?" I pleaded, I Can't lose her.

"But what if he disagree's, I mean he was not proud we even started a relationship?"

"if he tells me, you're not allowed to return next year. I'll leave with you" I told her.

Aria looked at me shocked "Really? you'd move with me?"

I didn't hesitate before I answered "In a heart beat.. I just want to be with you!" I lean in and kissed her, before she could respond. But she pulled away a couple of seconds later and looked, at me with wide eyes. Before placing her lips upon mine... I easily returned the kiss, I kissed her with passion and want. Love and hope, I knew she felt the same way.

As our lips moved together, I placed lily. down and grasp her face, Aria wrapped her arms around my waist. we both pulled apart and a grin formed on my face "Is that a yes?" I whispered.

Just as I asked Aria the question Lily barked "I'm guessing Lily, is very happy with us" Aria looked at the puppy jumping up and down "Yes, Ezra I want to start over" Aria returned her gaze over to me..

"Thank you, Rose-Lily" I said before kissing Aria once more.

Aria's POV:

Ezra andI pulled apart moments later, and I snuggled closer to him. it felt so good, just to bein his arms again. "Ezra? My leg is starting to hurt" I told him

He moved the we towel, that was full with blood. "Aria, I have to take it out." he looked at me "But I don't know, how deep it is. And it might cause more bleeding.

I started to cry" I 'm so scared. I just want this day to end.." I choked out "there are things I haven't done yet. I wanna teach, I want to get married and have kids someday... I want-"

"Aria... Aria Snap out of it" Ezra tried to calm me down "you r having a panic attack. I promise, you'll get to fulfill your dreams. we're going to make it out of this... together"

I started panting, my breathing coming ragged "I think it's over" Ezra whispered.

"What?" I looked at Rose-Lily, she was jumping up and own in excitement "how long has it been?" I Ezra looked at his watch

"It's been at least a couple of hours" Ezra looked back up at me, and stood up" can you walk?"

"I can try" I said and Ezra gave me a hand to pull me up. But the second I was up, I fell right into his arms' My leg, really hurts"

"Okay, wrap your arms around my neck" Said Ezra as he hosted me up bridal style "Ready?" I nodded and Ezra carried me up the stairs, down the hall and towards the doors. Once we got there, I pushed it open.

"Oh my God, I was just in that building" I pointed to the Art's building. The Art's building is trashed, Dupree is all around us. People are taking in their surroundings helping, other people in need. "It's Awful" I said as Ezra kissed the top of my head.

"Ezra!" Someone yelled out his name, Ezra turned around and saw my dad. "Aria, Ezra thank god your both okay" He took me from Ezra's arms...

"Dad, Ezra saved my life." I smiled at Ezra "I wouldn't be here, if it wasn't for him"

"Thank you, Ezra. I don't know, what I would've done if I lost my baby." My dad, was on the verge of tears.

Ezra nodded "The feeling is mutual."

I would like to think, this chapter came out okay... But I'll leave that up to, you to decide. I'm sorry if the TORNADO part of the chapter came out wrong. I don't know anything about tornado's. Where I live, we don't have them. And so I just went on what I saw, On the moive TWISTER. yes I know the moive is old, but I still love it. Anyways i'm stopping my ranting. Please review, and thank you for reading. Sorry about mistakes
