Chapter 10

Aria

Everyone had arrived at Ezra's house and Hanna had taken control of the music just so she could annoy the guys by blasting One Direction. Hanna enjoyed being obnoxious but that's what made her so much fun. However, when you're trying to have fun and a boy band is singing love songs, it's not exactly the night everyone pictured.

"Dear God, someone save me," Ezra groaned. Hanna was singing at the top of her lungs and even the girls were ready to shut her up. At first, they had gone along with it just because the guys couldn't escape them and they thoroughly enjoyed being obnoxious, but now Hanna was the only one being stupid.

"Okay, Han, if you don't change this song, I'm going to down that bottle of alcohol right now," Aria whined.

Hanna groaned and turned down the music. "Okay fine. Let's find a way to put that alcohol to good use." She grabbed the bottle of vodka and seven shot glasses and filled them to the brim. She scattered them around the island where everyone was taking a seat, preparing themselves for a drunken night of fun. Aria wasn't sure what to expect with all of them getting drunk together. She hadn't taken a sip of alcohol since before A was gone and she was actually nervous about it. Of course, with Ezra there, she would be too busy trying to rip his clothes off of him to do something stupid. Some people would call jumping your boyfriend's bones in front of your friends stupid but she was already horny without the alcohol.

"I'll start," Hanna offered, a little too excited. "Never have I ever had sex with a girl." Emily, Caleb, Ezra, and Toby all took a shot.

"Really, Han?" Aria asked with a roll of her eyes. "Can't you think of anything better?"

She shrugged. "Hey, I've done a lot and I don't want to be the one taking a shot because no one else did."

Aria sighed. Hanna was definitely the craziest out of all of them. No one was as bold as her. "My turn. Never have I ever made a sex tape." Caleb and Hanna both took a shot. Point made.

"Oh my God," Ezra groaned. "I'm suddenly not too comfortable with this."

Caleb laughed. "You'll be fine in a second, Man. Okay, never have I ever been in an illegal relationship."

"That's not fair," Aria said after downing her first glass. Last time they played, the game ended up with she and Ezra completely wasted because they wouldn't stop using them as targets.

"Hey, we're trying to get the old guy to loosen up," Toby told her. "We could always bring up Ezra's past so we can leave you out of it if you want to be a downer."

Aria shook her head. "Hell no! Hit me."

He nodded. "That's what I thought. Never have I ever been skinny dipping." Hanna, Caleb, Emily, and Ezra all took a shot.

Aria turned her head to Ezra and arched her eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

"College. Don't ask. Never have I ever showed up at my boyfriend's doorstep at 3AM because I was horny."

Aria and Hanna took a shot and Aria rolled her eyes at him. "It was one time!" She had to sneak out of the house senior year just because she woke up in the middle of the night after a very explicit dream about her boyfriend.

"Okay does this always have to be just sexual? Can we mix it up a bit? Like, never have I ever stolen something."

Hanna and Caleb took a shot. Hanna was already starting to look hazed and definitely acting tipsy. It never took long for Hanna because she was such a wild child anyway. You could say practically anything and she'd take a shot. Emily would be the next of the four girls to be drunk and then Aria and then Spencer being the practical and rather boring one that never did anything. They would always have to say things that they knew Spencer had done just to get her the least bit tipsy. After being best friends forever and knowing every single thing about each other, that's basically what the game became anyway- who can get who drunk first. Ezra was still discovering things with his former students and it got amusing.

"Never have I ever butt dialed someone during sex," Spencer said.

Aria and Ezra both started laughing and took a shot. "Seriously?" That was one thing that she hadn't told anyone. It was too embarrassing. "Who?"

Aria looked at Ezra and then down at the table. "My phone was on the bed and I didn't lock it. Long story short, I still can't look my mom in the eye." That was not something anyone ever wanted to happen to them. She was just glad it had never happened when she was in high school. That could've been way worse than now when it was 2 adults.

"When was this?" Spencer asked, her eyes wide.

"The night after I had brunch with her. Right after I had just denied Ezra and me."

A loud gasp went through the room and Ezra held his face in his hands, his cheeks bright red. Ella hadn't tried to go to The Brew since then and they all understood why. It was just easier to not see the guy you heard your daughter getting hot and heavy with over the phone at midnight.

They all took turns taking shots until they were completely wasted. Aria was having more fun right then than she could ever remember having. Of course, she couldn't remember anything at the moment. She did know that they were going to have to do something like this more often. It wasn't so bad to lose control as long as you took everyone's keys and hid them in a place a drunk person couldn't find and made sure the doors and windows were locks before taking your first shot.

Aria was unbuttoning Ezra's shirt and kissing him wherever there was skin available. He was letting her too. She was definitely enjoying having the loosened up side of Ezra come out and party for once. She was taking full advantage of it. Spencer had already passed out from her lack of experience with alcohol and Toby was lying on the couch giggling the way no one had ever known him to do. Hanna and Caleb were taking full advantage of Ezra's empty guest room floor. That was another reason it was great that Ezra was out of it- he had no idea. And they would all be too hungover in the morning to even care.

"Guys, there's a dog in here," Toby said, giggling in the process.

Aria ignored him and continued what she was doing, giggling on her own. "Ezra," she whined. "Your hands aren't working white." She cackled again and moved herself so she was straddling him while he sat on the floor. "I meant right." She kissed him all over, her hands moving faster to peel off clothing wherever possible. She smiled against his lips and started grinding against him, his desperate moans fueling her fire more. She ran her tongue from his ear down to his chest and he giggled at her.

"Mr. Fitz, I'm bored," she groaned. His hands grabbed hold of her ass and pulled her tighter against him.

"We should get married," he mumbled when her lips moved down to his chest.

Everything stopped in that moment. That was the biggest, most confusing buzzkill ever. Honestly, she wasn't sure what she wanted- for him to be too drunk to know what he was saying or for him to be sober enough to realize what he was saying. She was suddenly way too sober.
Aria flipped over to the side of him and he groaned. "Why'd you stop?"

"Ezra, what did you just say?"

"Why did you stop?" His speech was slurred and he couldn't sit up straight without wobbling around. He was too wasted to remember.

Of all times for her best friends to be unconscious, this had to be the time.

"Because I'm tired." She left him in only his boxers, sitting on the hardwood and made her way up to his bedroom. Or, technically, their bedroom. She spent just as much time in it as he did. Technically, he did propose, right? Was she supposed to bring it up in the morning or just let it go and pretend like nothing had happened?

"Mrs. Aria Fitz?" she asked herself. The name sounded vaguely familiar, though, she had never said it out loud before.

Falling back on the bed, she groaned. They were never ever getting trashed again.

Don't forget to review, please. So what do you guys think should happen from here?
