The Heart wants what it wants
Chapter 10
Aria shuffled her feet around while she waited patiently at Spencer's door. She really had to tell someone about Ezra and Spencer was the only one she felt comfortable around at the moment.
The door opened and Spencer materialized. She leaned casually against the door frame titled her head to side as a gesture to let Aria in. Aria nodded her thanks and placed her jacket on the coat hanger. She followed Spencer up to her room and sat on the bed. It had seemed that Spencer had been painting her nails before Aria had come in. The smell of fingernail polish still lingered in the air.
"So what's up?"
"I had sex with Ezra again."
Spencer dipped the brush into the nail polish.
"How was it?"
"It felt really good."
"How did it happen this time?"
"I asked him to go out with me on Valentine's Day, so we went on a date and one thing led to another and we ended up having sex again in the park."
"How romantic?"
"But now it's real. It's not just a drunken mistake anymore."
"I thought you wanted it that way."
"I just want it to be easy. There is nothing asy about screwing my brother's best friend behind his back."
"Break up with him then."
"It's not that simple."
"How is it not simple?"
"I like him a lot. The only problem is that I'm falling in love with him and my brother has no idea."
"Tell your brother."
" I can't. He'll kill Ezra if he ever finds out."
"What are you worried about?"
"I hate lying to him. I used to tell Mike everything. Now I can barely look at him. What if I tell him about Ezra and me and he feels like he should hate me or doesn't even want to look at me anymore?"
"Do you really think your brother is that shallow?"
"When it comes to Ezra he is."
"What are you going to do?"
"I don't know. I really don't know."
