Chapter 10
When Aria woke up in Spencer's arms, her heart instantly began to race. Spencer's body was so warm and accepting and the second that Aria realized that they were both still completely naked, she started freaking out. She slid out of the other girl's arms and hopped of the bed as silently as possible. She stood there in the darkness of her room, her breath caught in her throat for a few minutes. Then she tiptoed to the closet and got her robe.
The wooden stairs felt cool on her bare feet and she hurried down them to get to the kitchen for some water. Aria desperately needed some fresh air. Her head was reeling with thoughts. Had she and Spencer really.. She sucked in a breath remembering it. She couldn't believe she'd swept down so easily and eaten the girl out with barely even a second thought. And Spencer had.. tasted sooo good. Aria had to hold on to the kitchen counter when she got into the kitchen because she was seriously swooning. That place between her legs was still aching from all the attention Spencer had given it only hours before.
With shaking hands, Aria got a glass out of the cabinet and held it under the spigot in the fridge to get some ice. Then she switched the spout to water and let filtered water fill up the cup. She sipped it slowly letting the liquid slide down her throat and cool her tongue. Truthfully, she felt hot all over her body and the more she thought about Spencer, the hotter she got. It wasn't like Aria to be so forward, and it definitely wasn't like Aria to be so..lesbian. But then, she'd pretty much thrown the old Aria out of the window last night hadn't she? There wasn't a thing that they had done that she would have taken back. It had been the most amazing night in Aria's life. So what did that MEAN?
A knock at the door startled her so much that she nearly dropped the glass in the floor. She sat it on the counter and tightened her robe and looked out at the thick darkness of the night. A familiar pair of eyes stared back at her- Ezra Fitz. She swallowed hard. What the hell was he doing there? She hadn't spoken to him since they broke up and he was forced to leave his teaching position. She was sure they were completely over.. She'd laid around for over a month missing him but now she was over him.. Right? She put her hand on the door handle with hesitation, and then slowly opened the door.
"Aria," he said, his voice cracking, "Can I talk to you? I saw that your parents weren't home and I didn't know who else to go to..And.." He sounded like he was crying.
Aria stepped aside, forgetting that she was mostly naked standing in her kitchen, and Spencer Hastings was completely naked, laying upstairs in her bed. "Ezra," she replied, "What's..what's going on? What are you doing here?"
He rung his hands then wiped them on his suit pants. He had stubble on his chin and Aria wasn't used to that. He was supposed to be Ezra Fitz, the hot English teacher that all the girls found dreamy and intelligent and well-kempt. But now he just looked worried and troubled. It kinda seemed like he hadn't slept in days. "I'm.. I just found out some news," he said. "Well a couple of days ago. And I'm trying to figure out how to handle it. And as much as I've tried to convince myself not to come here.. The only person I can trust with this information is you Aria. And if I tell you.. You can't tell anyone else, okay? Ever."
Aria took a deep breath. Seeing Ezra after all this time was really having an effect on her. He still made her head swim, even though she was sure that she was over him. Plus, she absoluetely hated seeing him like this. "You can tell me," she said, "I'll listen. I won't tell anyone."
He nodded at her and sat down at the table, laying his hands on the wood. "Please don't judge me for this Aria," he begged, "But I know how this is going to sound."
She shook he head. "I won't judge you Ezra."
He kept his eyes down. "In highschool I dated a girl named Maggie.. And we.. Well we had sex. And I didn't know but I got her pregnant. She left and went away for college before I found out though.. And she just contacted me three days ago. I have a son Aria. I'm a father."
Aria stared at him. She couldn't believe what he was saying. Ezra, a father? He was such a bohemian, book-loving guy in his twenties. She couldn't see him being a dad. She imagined he would be a good dad.. But she couldn't see him actually BEING one, not yet anyway. "Are you sure?"
He nodded. "I had a paternity test done. Yesterday. He's mine. And I met him, Ar. His name is Malcolm. He's five. He's so smart and he looks just like me..."
For a second Aria couldn't think of anything to say. The guy she'd once been head over heels for just told her that he was a father. To a five year old. That means that the entire time she was with him, he actually had a son out there. It sort of blew her mind. Ezra Fitz, her ex-boyfriend, and ex English teacher, was sitting at her kitchen table at three in the morning, crying about the fact that he had a five year old. And that he didn't know what to do about it. "I'm sorry Ezra," she finally said, "I'm trying to think of what to say.."
He gave her a sad smile. "It's okay Aria, it's just nice having you here and that you're listening to me." He reached out and took her hand. "I've really missed you."
She looked into his dark eyes. "I've missed you too," she said, though she didn't know if she actually meant it. She let him pull her into a hug and they stood there with his head against the front of her robe for the longest time.
Well until Spencer, who had silently decended the stairs looking for Aria, came to stand in the kitchen. "Aria?" she said, and squinted at the couple embracing in the kitchen. "What's going on?"
