Chapter 14

Inappropriate Hollis Staff Party

I cannot thank you guys enough for the response to the previous chapter. You guys gave me an amazing laugh. Hands down made my day reading all of those conversations on twitter. Y'all know who you are... Thank you hahaha.

Ezra's POV

Tonight is the night of the annual winter Hollis staff party before we are off for winter break. Every year Byron Montgomery hosts it in his house. I've heard his wife's cooking is extraordinary and Byron serves the best scotch people have ever had the pleasure of consuming.

I have only worked at Hollis for a couple months now therefore I am still building relationships with all of my coworkers. To be honest, I am a mix of nerves and excitement to attend this social gathering. My biggest fear of the evening is unintentionally revealing my deep feelings for Bryon Montgomery's teenage daughter. Aria and I have been dating for just shy of six months now and no one knows of our relationship.

My anxiety begins to rise as I reach up to knock on the thick wood door. I awkwardly tug on my jacket and in attempt to straighten it. My fingers wrap tightly around the stems of the flowers I brought for Aria.

Just as I raise my hand to knock once more the door swings open to reveal my stunning girlfriend. Aria is dressed in a mid-thigh length black dress which has a fitted bodice and a flowing skirt. There is a three inch keyhole design on the chest allowing me a glance at her cleavage. My eyes travel down her slender frame to see she is wearing her favorite pair of four inch high heel stilettos.

"Good Evening Miss Montgomery. Here, these are for you." I grin sheepishly at the beautiful woman in front of me as I hand her the bouquet of daylilies.

Aria bites her bottom lip to suppress her spreading smile. "Thank you, Mr. Fitz."

Aria steps back and opens the door up wider for me to enter her house for the first time. My eyes roam around the warm home my girlfriend has grown up in. The mantle above the fireplace is lined with family photos of the Montgomery's. I can't help but smile ever so faintly at the pictures along the wall consisting of Aria as a baby and young toddler.

Byron Montgomery is at my side a moment later with an extra glass of scotch in his hand. I take the drink with appreciation and enjoy the feeling the warm liquid brings to my taste buds.

"Let me introduce you to some people Ezra."

Byron leads me farther into the living room to meet the rest of our colleagues. We all carry on pointless small talk as we much on the delicious food prepared by Ella.

My attention is taken away from my current conversation with Byron and the Dean due to some commotion taking place behind me. Glancing over my shoulder I see a tall man with dirty blonde hair pulling Aria into a tight hug. One that seemed much too intimate for my personal comfort.

"That's Jason DiLaurentis, he is Ali's older brother." Byron answers my unasked question.

I silently nod my head to acknowledge his statement. I try my hardest to bring my attention back to the two men standing in front of me only to bring my gaze back to Aria and Jason. He brought her flowers as well. The only difference is she doesn't have to quickly sneak her bouquet upstairs to her room before her parents can see them. Jason whispers something in her ear causing her to release a loud whole hearted laugh.

The pair lingers together at the base of the staircase talking and sharing a handful of stories with each other. After some time Aria manages to catch my gaze on her with a slight frown forming on my lips. Turning my attention back to my boss I attempt to follow along with the conversation.

Slipping up behind me I feel Aria's presence.

"Hey dad, mom needs you in the kitchen for a second." Aria informs her father thus taking his attention off of me. Once he scurries off to the kitchen Aria turns to me. "Would you care for a refill Mr. Fitz?" She purrs my name in a seductive voice causing me to clear my throat to conceal my groan due to the fact my boss is standing three feet from us.

"I can get it if you wouldn't mind showing me to the liquor."

Aria nods her head and motions for me to follow. I excuse us politely and walk away from my boss, Mr. Davison. Aria leads me past the living room down a short hallway and takes a left leading us to a closed door. Glancing over her shoulder she checks to ensure no one can see us. Pushing the door open, Aria pulls me into the dark unknown room then firmly shuts the heavy wood door behind us. I hear her flip the lock on the door prior to flipping on the lights.

"It's my dad's study," Aria says mindlessly upon sensing my confusion.

"I didn't invite Jason to come tonight," Aria confesses as she leads me over towards the desk to lean on the edge of it. "My mother believes I am dating him which is why she inviting him without telling me."

Feeling confused for a moment I ponder how to reply. "Why does she think that?"

"She knows I have a boyfriend due to those hickeys you keep giving me; she has caught me covering up a few of them time to time. Plus I am constantly sneaking out when she knows I am not with the girls. She is assuming its Jason since she has seen us around town every now and then."

Aria turns her gaze to stare at the rug with her arms crossed over her chest and gnaws on her bottom lip. "She may have also seen when he kissed me the other night on my way home from dinner with Spencer."

Releasing a heavy breath I close my eyes and shake my head trying to keep the image out of my head. I was furious when Aria informed me of what happened a few nights ago with this unknown man. Now that I have a face to go with the action I feel the jealousy building up within me.

Not wanting to dwell on the topic of him any longer I close the large gap between us. My hands grasp the sides of her face as I lower my lips down to crash against hers. Hooking my hands on the backs of her thighs, I lift her up to sit on top of the wood desk.

Aria moans into my mouth the moment my tongue glides into hers. She tangles her fingers firmly into my hair to keep a nice hold on me. Trailing my lips down to her neck I give Aria a moment to catch her breath. I slide my hands underneath her dress to caress her silky smooth thighs.

"Ezra… Ezra be careful…" Aria mutters breathlessly. "Ezra no hickeys right now."

Biting down on her sweet spot I suck firmly on the tender skin despite her warning of no love bites.

"Ezraaaaa," Aria moans into my ear while wrapping her legs around my waist.

Once I know I have left a decent sized mark I trail my lips down a little further to leave another one. Only this time, Aria pushes me back slightly and tell me no.

"Tomorrow you can give me as many as you want. However, I probably shouldn't walk around this party with a bright red irritated neck."

"Mmm I don't see a problem with it." My hands toy with her panties underneath her dress feeling her arousal. "I brought a surprise for you by the way."

"And what might that be?" Aria asks with excitement.

"You'll get it in a minute, but first…"

Grasping ahold of her hips, I sit her all the way on the desk and tell her to lay back. Taking a seat on the large leather chair I give myself a prime view of my delectable girlfriend. Aria's eyes set on me to see what I am going to do next.

Slipping my hands under her dress, I slide her light pink lacy panties down her legs and over her heels. Placing my hands on the insides of her thighs to spread them apart giving me a glorious view of her wet pussy.

"We have to be quick. They'll notice I am gone soon." Aria mutters with regret just as I am leaning forward to place my lips on her most sensitive area.

Kissing the insides of her thighs I can sense her arousal increasing and her legs beginning to tremble with anticipation. Aria leans back and fists the bottom of her dress at the sensation of my tongue gliding up her wet lips.

"Ezra…" Aria whimpers desperately.

Knowing I don't have the desired time to devour her, I opt for a quick yet pleasurable orgasm. Gliding my tongue along her wet pussy I tease her clit from time to time. Aria whimpers her need for me to play with her clit.

Glancing up at her, I bring all of my attention to the needy little bud knowing I am highly limited on time. Putting all of my mouth's focus on her clit, I slip two fingers into her core. Aria struggles greatly to keep her moans nonexistent.

My tongue and fingers work rapidly to bring Aria to the edge of her orgasm. Flicking my tongue faster in a circular motion brings her closer to her release. I squeeze her thigh teasingly and rake my nails along the inside of her leg.

"Ezra babe I am about to cum. A little more babe… and I will. Mmmmm. Yes." Aria's fingers tighten in my hair effectively keeping my face firmly pressed against her pussy.

One last firm flick of my tongue is all it takes to send her over the edge. I sit back and enjoy the sexy sight of my girlfriend wreathing out her high. She lays still for a moment to steady her breathing before forcing her body to sit up straight and pull me into a kiss.

"I love you so much Ezra. I wish I had time to pleasure you too. Just know, you have nothing to worry about when it comes to Jason at all. I am all yours and only yours."

She reconnects our lips in a heated kiss which helps rid the remainder of my jealously.

"Soooo do I get my surprise now?" Aria wonders with curiosity and a dash of excitement.

Nodding my head I pull her off of the desk, bringing her to stand on her feet.

"Turn around and bend over the desk."

Aria does as I tell her to. Pulling up her dress I fully expose her bare lower half. Retrieving the undisclosed item from my jacket pocket I prepare them and inform her to spread her legs wide for me. While I wish I could drag this out and tease her for a few minutes, we truly don't have much time before her parents discover she is absent from the party.

Aria gasps harshly when she feels the cool metal ball ease into her core.

"Ezra what the hell is that?" She groans breathlessly in pleasure.

Without answering her question I insert the second large metal ball into her.

"Ezra!" She squeals at the foreign feeling.

I plant two playful swats to both sides of her firm ass prior to retrieving her panties and slipping them back on her. Pulling Aria to stand up straight I pull her dress back down to put her outfit back in order. With my hands on her hips, I slowly turn her body around to look her in the eye. Her face is covered in a light pink blush. Her eyes are dark and wide with lust. Lastly, she is gnawing on her bottom lip clearing attempting to refrain from moaning.

"I may have gone to New Haven a couple nights ago to pick out a little something for you from our sex shop. Let's just say I wanted you to have an idea on how I feel when you work me up in a room full of people and there is nothing I can do about it."

I smile in satisfaction seeing her horny reaction to the newest toy. Placing my hand on her lower back I guide her towards the door to return to the party. After a couple steps Aria freezing in place with a firm hand on my arm.

"Jesus Christ Ezra. How in the hell am I supposed to walk around this party for the next two hours with these things moving inside of me?" Aria squeaks out. Her thighs are clenched together and her eyes are firmly shut.

"I guess you'll have to adapt and find a way like I have multiple times in the past, Princess." With one last playful spank to her ass I lead her out of her father's study.

Aria has been struggling to maneuver around her house for the past couple of hours now. We have constantly grazed past one another in need of the faintest touch while no one was watching.

After a while Aria came to sit on the arm of the couch next to me. From anyone else's point of view it looked completely innocent for Aria to have perched herself on the arm of the couch. From my point of view on the other hand, I knew innocence was nowhere in the equation. Due to our close proximity it is clearly evident that Aria has been slowly, yet subtly, grinding her hips in place searching for even an ounce of some much desired friction.

Leaning down to pretend I need to adjust my pant leg, I brush my fingertips along her bare leg. Due to her hypersensitivity right now Aria's body reacts in a way I would not have expected. Aria nearly jumps out of her skin causing her to lose her balance and fall off of her perch. All eyes land on Aria out of curiosity.

I swiftly stand up to help pull Aria to her feet. She avoids my gaze in hopes of preventing me from seeing the blush on her cheeks.

"Are you okay honey?" Byron rushes over to Aria right as I am helping her regain her footing.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Sorry, I don't know what happened." Aria assures everyone she is okay prior to scurrying off away from everyone.

Chuckling to myself I feel a sense of gratification wash over me knowing I have finally gotten her equally as worked up in public as she has done to me.

Glancing around the house I attempt to locate Aria only to come up short. Well over half an hour passes by before I finally catch the faintest flash of a black dress rounding the corner of what I presume to be the kitchen. Excusing myself from the monotone conversation I had been a part of, I head off towards the other side of the house.

Aria is in the kitchen refilling the snack platters and cleaning up the miniscule amount of dishes that has accumulated over the past few hours. Leaning against the wall in the kitchen I watch her from behind as she moves about her family kitchen.

Spinning around on her heel, she gasps loudly when she realizes I have been watching her. Roaming my eyes up and down her body I can tell she is a horny, crumbling mess. A smirk grazes my lips in satisfaction that I have finally found the upper hand for the first time in our relationship and teased her in an open event while remaining completely discreet.

"How are you feeling Miss Montgomery?"

Aria glares at me with a huff. "Don't smirk at me! You know damn well how I am feeling."

Glancing around the corner of the kitchen I see everyone is engrossed in whatever story Mr. Davidson is sharing. Most importantly, both of Aria's parents are preoccupied and show no sign of leaving the living room any time soon.

Walking up to Aria, I place my hands on each side of her waist to pin her between me and the counter. My lips hover over hers to brush along her plump lips as I mutter my teasing words to her.

"If you are in need of a release I would be more than happy to lend a hand." My left hand slips up the inside of her legs to graze her panties.

"Oh baby," I kiss her longingly. "Your panties are completely drenched."

"Ezra!" Aria squeals in shock when my fingers ease into her panties. "We can't… We can't do this right here."

"If you insist, baby." Retracting my hand from her panties I move to take a step back from her.

"No, Ezra!" Aria pulls my body back to hers not wanting any space between us.

She is even hornier than I thought. "Do you want me to take you upstairs to your bedroom? I will take care of that ache you have between your thighs." My voice is low and husky against her neck as I whisper into her ear.

Aria nods her head furiously clearly unable to verbally respond.

Taking her hand in mine, we swiftly make our way to the back staircase to ensure no one sees us heading upstairs. Aria points to which door leads to her bedroom the moment we reach the top of the stairs.

We barely have the door shut before Aria attempts to shed her dress. Her trembling body makes it difficult to unzip her dress. Turning her around, I unzip and remove the flattering dress for her. My eyes roam her lingerie clad body through the body length mirror in front of us.

Aria looks undeniably sexy and mature in front of me. Her hair is wavy down her shoulders. She has a crimson blush on her cheeks to match the look of lust in her eyes. Her breathing is shallow and rapid to express her anxious desires.

After a moment I notice her eyes flutter shut when I lift my hands up to unclasp her bra allowing it to fall to her feet. My cool hands faintly trace down her warm curves until they hook in the lace of her light pink panties. I remove the last bit of lace from her body leaving her completely bare to me. Ever so slowly I kiss my way back up her body until I am standing straight behind her once more.

"I need you to get these things out of me Ezra, like now. I already tried earlier in the bathroom but failed. Please, Ezra. They have been surreal, but right now I just need them out of me and you in me." Aria's large doe like eyes fully showcase her emotions.

Placing a delicate kiss under her ear, I mutter her next moves into her ear. "Go lay down on the bed, honey."

Aria swiftly does as I tell her to. I disregard my clothing as well in hopes of preventing anything from becoming wrinkled.

Climbing on top of my beautiful girlfriend, I settle myself into a comfortable position to thoroughly pleasure her and fulfil her needs. Aria releases a heavy sigh of relief the moment I remove her newest toy from her southern region. With the metal items out of sight and mind on her nightstand I plan on making love to my girlfriend for the first time in her own bed.

"Please no teasing… I need to feel you right now, Ezra." Aria murmurs breathlessly against my lips between kisses.

Aria wraps her right leg around my waist effectively pulling my hips down to press against hers. My hand grips her soft thigh in my large palm. Using my free hand I guide my erection to her entrance. Our eyes lock together as I slowly ease into her.

"Ezra," Aria mutters in shock as I give her every inch I have to offer.

Tucking her hair behind her ear I smile seeing the happiness portrayed on her face. I lace my right with her own above her head on her pillow.

Our bodies rock together in slow yet deep motions. The ever so soft creaking of her mattress paired with our heavy breathing is the only indication of our naughty activities.

We don't intend on making this one of our long drawn out love sessions consisting of multiple orgasms. It isn't rushed and rough either; it is merely slow and sensual. Our bodies move together in perfect harmony as they always have. Our lips barely breaking away from one another for more than a few seconds when needing to refill our lungs with oxygen.

Aria and I are nearing our climaxes fairly quickly. Aria crashes her lips against mine the moment she feels her release approaching in hopes of keeping her moans quiet. A handful of thrusts later is all it takes for me to lose myself inside of her.

My tired and satisfied body collapses on top of her petite frame. Aria purrs her pleasure of feeling a bit of my body weight on top of her as our naked bodies cling together. Neither of us are sure how much time has passed by due to basking in comfort and happiness.

"We should probably go back downstairs." I groan in distaste.

Aria quickly shakes her head in denial and holds onto my body firmly. "I'm sure they are all pretty buzzed by now from my dad's scotch. No one will notice we are both gone. Let's just enjoy this moment as long as we can."

"I love that idea."

I place two swift pecks to her lips then shift our bodies under her sheets. Aria cuddles into my side and wraps her silk sheets tighter around her body.

"I'm going to be honest, your sheets are much nicer than mine."

Aria giggles at my confession and offers to buy me a set of the sheets as an upcoming Christmas gift.

"I love you so much, Ezra." Aria traces mindless patterns on my bare chest and snuggles deeper into my side.

Pressing several kisses to the top of her head, I pull her in as close as I can. "I love you too, Sweetheart."

Aria and I finally accepted it was time for us to redress and slip back down to the party when we hear the guests begin to leave. It doesn't take us long to slip back into our formal attire and wipe away any ounce of sex from our appearance.

Aria places her damp pink panties in my pocket along with the metal balls as a reminder of the fun winter break will bring us.

We slowly make our way down the back staircase in hopes of avoiding any attention. Once we reach the bottom of the stairs and step onto the hardwood flooring in the kitchen I glance around to leave a lingering kiss on my beautiful girlfriend's lips. Our lips had only just broken apart when we hear footsteps approaching. Standing in front of us is none other than Ella Montgomery.

"There you two are. What were you doing upstairs? I've been looking for you both." Ella asks with curiosity as she glances back and forth between the two of us.

"Oh uhhh," Aria shares a glance at me before turning back to her mother. "I wanted to show Mr. Fitz my book collection. I was hoping he would be able to spot any classic I might be missing that he felt I would enjoy. You know I am always looking for more recommendations."

I try my hardest to hold back a chuckle at her somewhat smooth lie. Readjusting my coat, I freeze in place when I hear the metal balls slightly clang together thus creating a highly noticeable sound. Aria fake coughs in attempt to muffle the noise and pull her mother's gaze off of me.

"Hmm okay. Did you have any good recommendations for— Ezra, what is in your pocket?" Ella's eye trail down to lock on the pocket of my pants.

Moving my suit coat to the side was the worst physical response I could have done. By doing so I made Aria's pink panties completely visible to the older woman standing a foot from me. I stuff the lace item further into my pocket to shield it from sight.

"Aria Marie Montgomery! What in the hell did you do!" Ella screeches in a very firm tone at the realization of what she just saw.

Aria shrugs her shoulders with a nervous laugh. "What are you talking about?"

Ella crosses her arms over her chest. "I have done your laundry on more than one occasion young lady. I know exactly what that was hanging out of Mr. Fitz's pocket." She spits harshly in distaste "That is why you two have been gone this whole time."

Ella's enraged eyes shoot back towards me to give me the deadliest glare I have ever witnessed. She opens her mouth to speak though she freezes when she hears Byron calling for her announcing the Dean is about to leave so she should come say goodbye.

"You two are going to wash all of the dishes and clean up the kitchen while I get everyone out of this house. The moment they are gone so help me God I am going to strangle one of you if not both of you!"

Ella storms off across the house to join her husband. Turning towards Aria I ask her what we should tell them. Aria shrugs her shoulders in defeat then falls into my chest not caring who may see us now. I wrap my arms firmly around her body and stroke her back.

"It'll all be okay, honey. Don't worry."

I place a kiss to her temple then tell her we should clean up real quick before we upset Ella any further.

We silently move around the kitchen cleaning everything up. Aria putting all the food in containers and then handing me the dishes to wash and load into the dishwasher.

Fifteen minutes later we have the kitchen put back in order. There is only one person left who Ella is trying her hardest to shoo out the door. I pull Aria into my arms in hopes of reassuring her everything will work out. She buries her head into my chest and clings onto me for dear life. My hands repeatedly glide up and down her back in a soothing manner.

"Aria, Ezra come in here now." Ella shouts the second the front door is firmly closed.

Aria sighs heavily in hesitation. Lacing our fingers together, I lead her into the living room to talk with her mother.

"Oh Ezra, I didn't know you were still here. Are you—"Byron trails off when he notices my hand is twined with his teenage daughter's. "What is going on here?"

"That is exactly what they are going to tell us. I caught the two of them coming downstairs from Aria's bedroom a little bit ago." Ella huffs with crossed arms.

Byron looks back and forth between the three of us. "Her bedroom? Why in the fuck were you in my little girl's bedroom?" Byron quickly takes four large strides to stand directly in front of me.

"Dad now wait. Just give us a moment to talk first and explain this."

"Explain what exactly?" He asks Aria in confusion only for his hatred to return to his eyes and glare at me. "I asked you a question and I demand an answer right now."

Sensing our lack of desire to respond to him, Ella does it for us. "They were having sex Byron. They were upstairs having sex while her parents and his colleagues were down here having a staff party!"

"You bastard!"

I don't recall much after hearing those words snarled at me.

I felt the first blow to my face, though every single hit after that seemed to blend together. At some point I fell to the floor due to the repetitive punches to my face and my stomach. My sight was dazed and spinning quite a bit. I could vaguely hear Aria's screams for her father to stop; her voice sounded so far away.

One last deep punch to my stomach is all my body can handle. My eyes begin to drop and the blurry visions I had moments ago are now all gone. All I can hear is Aria screaming louder for me to wake up. I try as hard as I can for her, but I merely cannot open my eyes.

Aria's POV

I tried as hard as I could to let Byron explain my relationship to him but he wasn't having any part of it. In his eyes, Ezra raped and manipulated me. Byron beat the hell out of Ezra despite my screams and pleas for him to stop. Why did Mike have to spend the night at Conner's house? He would be able to pull Byron off of Ezra. I tried multiple times with no success. All I got out of trying to pull Byron away was getting shoved aside roughly.

"Ezra!" I scream with tears running down my cheeks at the latest punch. It hit Ezra so hard in the gut blood began spewing out of his mouth slightly.

Regaining my footing I hurry to Ezra's side. I place his head in my lap not giving a damn about the blood. Running my fingers through his hair I whimper out of fear.

"Ezra, Ezra! Babe open your eyes. Please baby look at me!"

"Don't bother Aria, this bastard got what he deserves." Byron smirks in satisfaction.

Ella is standing back silently watching the entire scene unfold. I had begged for her to help with no avail. Byron picks up his glass of scotch and throws back the entire glass in one big gulp. He has this look of satisfaction to him as if he is proud of himself for what he has done to my Ezra.

"Please, Ezra. I need you to open your eyes for me."

A new wave of sobs rush through my body when Ezra begins to cough up more blood and curl into my lap. I try my absolute hardest to pull Ezra up onto his feet. My petite stature doesn't help one bit, though I do have semi decent strength. My muscles scream in protest as I try with all of my might to get the somewhat conscious Ezra up.

His weight is rather heavy slumped against my little body. I don't think about the strain I am experiencing right now. With his right arm draped over my shoulder, I hold onto his torso firmly with my left arm. We shuffle ever so slowly towards the door with the goal of reaching his car.

"Where do you think you are going young lady? You are grounded with zero privileges until I state otherwise." Byron scoffs with distain.

"I am taking my boyfriend to the Emergency Room as a result from your pigheaded behavior!" I reply without even bothering to look his way.

"Aria," My mother speaks up for the first time this evening. "You are not leaving this house."

"The hell I'm not. I am taking my injured boyfriend to go see a Doctor. You can both bet your asses I will not be living here any longer after what you have done this evening."

Byron releases a harsh laugh asking where I expect to live while still being a minor. When I inform him I will be moving in with Ezra I slam the door shut swiftly not wanting to hear what they have to say.

"You are doing great, Ezra. We are almost to the car. Just a little closer." I encourage him.

I can tell he is fading fast. Five minutes later I have him in the passenger seat buckled up to go to the ER. I break nearly every traffic law during the drive there due to my rushing.

Pulling up to the ER I throw it in park then run inside to get some help. Several nurses came out to get Ezra out of the car and lift him up onto a gurney. My heart shatters when they tell me to remain in the waiting room while they take a look at him. It is then in that moment I finally allow myself to crumble into a sobbing mess at what happened tonight.

Two hours later I am finally allowed to join Ezra in his room.

The nurse, Lauren, gave me the full rundown on his situation before letting me into the room. She told me he is suffering from massive internal bruising, two broken ribs, a broken nose, and two matching black eyes. They assured me he will be okay in time, though, he will experience severe abdominal pain.

It was nearly impossible to keep my tears back as she was explaining everything to me. The moment she pushed open the door to his private room the Watergate busted open and I began sobbing. My Ezra is in a drug induced slumber covered in bruises from my father.

Lauren assured me they gave him plenty of pain meds along with the sleep additive to help take the edge off as much as possible. Once she leaves us alone I slowly make my way to the side of his bed. Running my fingers through his curly hair helps me focus on the fact he is alive and will be okay in time.

"I am so sorry Ezra. I am so, so sorry."

My sobs were so heavy I didn't even register the faint knock on the door. Lauren had returned with Ezra's phone and wallet in hand.

"We didn't want anything to happen to these so we kept them at the nurses' station."

Nodding my head in appreciation I take the items from her. "Thank you."

"You can lay with him if you'd like. As long as you stay on his left side and don't press down on the right side of his ribcage." Lauren offers with a warm smile.

I wipe the tears away furiously. I am sure my makeup is a smeared mess by now. The nurse leaves us alone yet again and bids us goodnight.

Hesitantly I crawl onto the bed to lay curled up in his side. I bury my head in the crook of his neck and struggle to not cry any more. He is safe and we are together, which is all I can ask for.

Pressing one last kiss to his neck I allow myself to drift off to sleep hoping to rid myself of my pounding headache from all the crying I have been doing.

"I love you Ezra Fitz."

Okay! So there we go. I haven't written one of them getting caught in a while so I figured it was about time! Please leave me reviews and let me know what you think. You get new chapters once I've hit 20+. So keep that in mind.

I will possibly do the thing I had done on twitter where you get to vote on what the next chapter is like I did with this one. If you want me to continue letting you pick the following chapter then I am up for that! Let me know if you prefer it that way or wish to be surprised.
