Sorry for the long wait, but life does get in the way. I know I have a few mistakes, and sometimes the words seems close together. I don't know why that happens. But I'm hoping your enjoying this story. Please don't for get to REVIEW it'll only take a few seconds. THANK YOU!
As everyone left the Montgomery house, Aria was still upstairs. So I was downstairs helping Ella and Byron clean up despite their protest. I knew Aria and I have to talk about what happen earlier, but I didn't want it to end up into another fight. I already Embarrassed myself once, I didn't need to do it again.
"Ezra, just talk to her. I know it's eating you up" Ella said, as I handed her the last of the dishes.
"I just don't know what to say" I told her and lean myself up, against the counter. "I don't want to say the wrong thing, and we end up breaking up again. I love her too much for that."
Ella sighed "Aria's been through a tough time, I mean with everything that happen in highschool. But the best thing right now, is to talk. You're not going to get anywhere, if everything is bottled up" Ella pushed me away from the counter. "Talk to her, and it's getting late. I don't want the two of you driving home, just spend the night okay?"
"Thank you, I feel like after all these year. You and Byron, turned into my parents or something" I smiled
Ella giggled, it was the same giggle as Aria "well, if you haven't noticed. I do treat you like my own Ezra Fitz."
"I've noticed, your always telling me what to do" I faked a complain. "but I don't mind" I said, and walked out of the kitchen and up to Aria's room.
Once I gotten to the door, I knocked and Aria immediately opened it up. "Hey" She said and moved to the side "I was wondering when, you'll be up here."
"I think we need to talk?" I said and took a seat in near the window "About what happen, I'm sorry I over reacted."
"Ezra, it's alright. I saw it in your eyes, the hurt and heartbreak." Aria sighed "I want everything to be open with us. I don't want us to have any secrets."
"Come here" I said and pulled Aria onto my lap "When we broke up, I was a wreck. You wouldn't answer my calls, emails nothing. Heck you didn't even come to class, the only way I knew you were okay was from the girls. And that almost killed me."
"Ezra, I didn't mean to break you heart like that. I just needed time. It was hard not seeing you everyday, and having my parents ask me every other hour what happen. So I moved out, got a job at the book store. And after the first week, I went to Iceland. I figured, getting away was the right thing for me." Aria shed a few tears "I really didn't sleep with Mark, we had a moment. I just made you think, I slept with him because you said you slept with Jackie. I'm sorry if I made you go mad earlier" Aria confessed
I smiled and shook my head "You don't have anything to be sorry for. I'm just so grateful, you're here even after I told you the truth"
Aria smiled and pecked my lips "that's all I want." Aria said before we shared a passionate kiss.
When we pulled away, we both looked into each others eyes. Saving the moment "I love you" I whispered
"I love you too, now can you help me" Aria asked and got off of my lap
"What do you need help with?" I question, as I watched her open the closet door.
"I don't' know what to bring to Kentucky" She gave me shy smile. "I just have to many options" Aria teased.
Aria's POV:
Last night was amazing, Ezra and I spent almost three hours deciding what I should bring. And now were at the airport, waiting to board our flight. The flight was set for six, and it's now 5:30. The girls had dropped us off, and we said our good byes. Hanna being Hanna handed me a box of scented condoms, which I don't think we'll be needing. Considering we'll be staying, at Ezra's parents home. But Yet she insisted, and stuffed it into my carry on bag. And when I went through security, they had given me a look of pure seduction. And I pointed to Ezra, who just looked really confused as to why I pointed but I just shrugged my shoulders.
"Hey, you want something to eat?" Ezra asked, as he kissed my neck "we still have a few minutes, I could run over and get us a pizza or something."
"I'm find, but if your hungry we can get the pizza" I replied.
"I just want you, I can wait the few hours till we get to Kentucky" Ezra smiled, and took my hand in his "thank you for coming with me, I really haven't saw my parents in years"
"Why?"
Ezra shrugged "Ever since I went to Hollis, I've kept in touch. But just been really busy with school and stuff. Then your dad, got me the job at Hollis. And I meant you!"
"Wow" I smiled "Don't worry, I'll show them that I'm not really a small town kind of gal" I said in my best western voice.
Ezra cracked up laughing "Your too much" He told me. "But I love you just the same" He gave me a kiss, and the announcement for our flight was broadcast "You ready?"
I tilted my head "I think so" I answered and Ezra gave me a weird look "Okay, I'm nervous but excited"
"Me too" Ezra stood up and the pulled me up with him.
Erza's POV:
Aria and I had fallen asleep, for the duration of our flight. And only woken up, when they had announced our landing. Kentucky airport was deserted, and getting to baggage claim was a breeze. I'm glad my mother booked, us a late flight. Once we had our baggage, we walked out side and found my parents with a huge sign. Aria started giggling as we walked up to them. Oh the embarrassment.
"Hey mom" I greeted her as she embraced me into a big hug "Dad" I said once my mom released me. "this is Aria" I smiled and moved to the side, so Aria was in view.
"It's very nice to meet you, Mr.. And Mrs.. Fitz" My mom pulled Aria into a hug.
"Please, Mrs.. Fitz is my mother-in law, Call me Brittany" My mom smiled and gave Aria a hug.
"And you can call me John or Sir" My dad, always the formal one.
"OKay" Aria answered, I could tell she was a little uncomfortable with me dad. But I didn't blame her, so am I
"Alright, shall we go?" I asked and loaded our bags, into my dad's car.
Everyone nodded, and we all filed in after. The ride from the Airport was long, well it seemed long. My Step mom, kept on rambling about her horses and I kept on staring at Aria. She had a huge smile on her face, as we passed by difference land marks. I squeezed her hand, as we were nearing the house. And Aria looked at me, I gave her a wink.
"So Aria, this is it." John said as we pulled into the long drive way "This was once Brittney's parents house. We they passed, it was handed down to her.
"It's very beautiful" Aria said, and pointed to one of the horse. Which happens to be mines, Brittany had gave her to me when they got married
"Ah..." I said and smiled "That's honey, My honey"
"That's your horse?" Aria looked at me shock "You never told me you have a horse"
I nodded "Yeah, My mom gave her to me"
"Can we go for a ride?" Aria asked
"Of course" I replied and my dad had finally parked the car.
Even though it was late, the farm was always filled with surrounding lights. It made it so much easier, and brighter to see the path. The four of us filed out of the car, and I helped my dad with our bags. While Brittany, went and gave Aria a tour of the house.
"Why didn't you tell us about, Jackie?" My dad asked.
"I told mom, your always busy dad." I said, and took a few bags from the car. "I'm in love with Aria, she's the one."
"Ezra, I'm happy for you. And I know growing up with me, was tuff. But I'm still your father."
"I know dad. I just wished you were around, more often." I took the last remaining bags and walked into the house. Brittany had already taken out the Photo Album.
"Are you guys Hungry?" My mom asked, as she noticed my presents "I can make you guys something..."
"Sure, but if you don't mind. I want to talk to Aria for a moment..." I said and took Aria's hand "come with me?"
"Sure, is something wrong?" Aria asked when I took her out side.
Aria's POV:
Ezra and I started to walk into the barn. When I asked him if something was wrong, he looked a little distracted and I just hope everything that happen in Rosewood, is behind us.
"There's something I haven't told you..." Ezra stopped and looked at me "My dad, asked me what happen between Jackie and I."
I looked at him confused "I thought you told them?" I questioned
Ezra shook his head "I told my mom, my dad is never around. Ever since they gotten married, Brittany has been more of my real Mother then anything"
"Wait? Brittany is your step-mom?" I asked and shook my head "why didn't you ever tell me this?"
Ezra shrugged "It's not something I broadcast. My mom... My real mom, was never around. She ran off with some random guy, and filed for a divorce. My dad took on roll of full time parent and meant Brittany one day at the store. They hit it right of the back." Ezra smiled "Kind of like us."
I smiled and wrapped my arms around Ezra's waist "you didn't have to tell me, but thank you" He bent down and gave me a kiss
"So my dad might bring it up again. I just wanted to tell you, before you go a wall on me."
I rolled my eyes "I believe you, and plus I wouldn't go a wall. I would just go back to Iceland."
Ezra pecked my lips and shook his head "over my dead body, your not going anywhere"
