Aria's POV
" This place is beautiful Hanna." I say as I observe the church where the wedding will take place
" Isn't it?" She asks excitedly.
" I'm so happy for you." I say smiling.
Spencer and Emily walk into the church with big bouquets of flowers to put around the aisles.
" Spencer, I said I wanted purple roses!" Hanna says frustrated.
" Sorry princess." Spencer says with an eye roll.
" It's fine I'll pick some up before tomorrow. Sorry I snapped at you, I'm just really overwhelmed." Hanna says apologetically.
" Don't worry about it." Spencer says as she hugs Hanna.
Within minutes Hanna, Spencer, and Emily are squealing about how excited they are for the wedding. I try to pretend like everything is okay, but Hanna can read me like a book.
" Spill it Montgomery." Hanna says as she puts her arms around me.
" Spill what?" I ask confused.
" You seem upset, what's bothering you?" She asks concerned.
" Nothing." I say looking down.
" Liar." Spencer mumbles.
" Where is Ezra?" Emily asks.
I feel as though someone dumped a bucket of cold ice water on me. I try to hold back the tears that rapidly pour out of my eyes.
" Oh sweetie." Spencer says worriedly.
" I'm fine really, this weekend is about Hanna not me." I tell the girls.
" If something's bothering you Aria talk about it with us. If you're miserable, so am I." Hanna tells me.
" What happened between you and Ezra?" Emily asks.
" We broke up." I admit as tears roll down my face.
" Why?" Hanna asks.
" He got offered a job in New York." I explain.
" Can't you guys talk on the phone and stuff?" Spencer asks.
" If only it were that simple." I say.
" Aria listen to me, if Ezra isn't willing to fight for you then he doesn't deserve you. You're amazing Aria, you can do so much better." Hanna tells me.
" Thanks." I say wiping away the rest of my tears.
" What do you say we take a break and go out for ice cream?" Hanna asks.
" That it's about time." Spencer says dropping the red roses.
Ezra's POV
After a long flight, I finally arrive in New York at midnight. I walk into the lobby of The Plaza because I remember that Aria mentioned she is staying here. I tentatively walk up to the front desk.
" Can you tell me what room Aria Montgomery is staying in?" I ask the woman at the desk.
" I'm sorry but I can't give random men our guests room numbers." She says sternly.
" I'm not a random man, I'm her boyfriend." I lie.
" Why don't you just call her then?" The woman asks.
" She has been walking around the City all day. The poor thing is probably fast asleep, and I don't want to wake her." I tell the woman.
" How sweet of you." The woman says rolling her eyes.
" Ask me anything about her and I'll tell you." I say desperately.
" I'm sorry Sir, but I can't give you her room number." The woman says apologetically.
" It's fine, I'll just call her I guess." I say as I walk anyway.
Great, how am I going to find Aria? A familiar face catches my eye and I know that I have the answer.
" Spencer!" I call out to her.
" Ezra hello." She says cooly.
" Can you tell me what room Aria is staying in?" I ask desperately.
" So you can break her heart again?" Spencer scoffs.
I am taken aback by her words, I never thought about how our breakup would affect Aria.
" I know that I hurt her, and I'm sorry. I just want to fix everything." I say sadly.
" You didn't hear this from me but Aria is staying in room 17 on the twelfth floor." Spencer says as she walks away.
" Thank you so much!" I call to her.
I immediately get in the elevator and make my way up to the twelfth floor. It takes me a minute to build up my courage and knock on Aria's door.
" Who is it?" She asks from inside of her room.
" Ezra." I respond.
" Ezra?" She says astonished as she opens the door.
" Can I come in?" I ask her.
" I'm not so sure that's a good idea." Aria says looking down.
Aria's eyes are red and her face looks red and puffy as if she has been crying.
" Please let me in Aria. I flew all the way to New York just so I could stare into your beautiful eyes." I tell her.
" Did I miss something? You broke up with me, remember?" She asks cooly.
" I know and I think that it was the biggest mistake that I've ever made. I miss you Aria, everything about you." I say as I put my hand on her shoulder.
" I miss you too, but things shouldn't be this hard." Aria tells me.
" You're right. I'll call the dean of NYU tomorrow and tell him that I'm out, I can find a job near you." I tell Aria.
" I can't ask you to do that." Aria says.
" This job isn't going to make me happy, you're the only person that can do that." I say sincerely.
" Come inside." Aria says nervously.
We both sit on the couch and stare at each other awkwardly.
" So what are we going to do?" I ask her.
" You shouldn't turn down this job offer Ezra, but what if I applied to a college in New York? I have the grades to get into Columbia." Aria tells me.
" You shouldn't have to do that Aria, it isn't fair." I argue.
" I love California, but if I move to New York I'll get to see my family and friends more." Aria explains.
" Are you doing this for me?" I ask her.
" A little, but I'm doing it for me too. Besides, you almost turned down your dream job so that we could be together." Aria says grabbing my hand.
" Are you sure that this is what's best for you." I ask sternly.
Aria simply nods her head and smiles.
" I love you Aria, and I never want to lose you again." I say as I envelop her in a hug.
Salty tears run down Aria's face.
" What's wrong?" I ask concerned.
" Nothing, I've just missed you terribly." Aria says as she falls into me.
" I've missed you too, and I need you." I say as I kiss her passionately.
Aria kisses me back, harder than she ever has before. Things get even more heated and we end up in bed. After nearly an hour of making love, both of us collapse. I hold Aria securely in my arms as she begins to fall asleep. Right when I'm about to fall asleep, I hear someone open Aria's door. A few seconds later the lights flicker on, my first instinct is to cover Aria's naked body. Aria's tired eyes begin to flutter open in confusion.
" Oh my God, what is he doing here?" Screams the shrill voice of Hanna Marin.
" I think the better question is what are you doing here?" Aria asks annoyed.
" I couldn't sleep because I can't decide if we should use the red roses that Spencer bought. I didn't know you would be in bed with your ex boyfriend!" Hanna explains.
" Yeah, well um he isn't my ex anymore. We just got back together." Aria explains.
" I can see that." Hanna says staring at me.
" You're getting married tomorrow Han, you need to get some sleep! We can talk about your roses in the morning." Aria tells her.
" You're right, sorry I barged in here. You two get back too whatever you were just doing." Hanna says walking out.
Aria giggles and my cheeks turn bright red.
" I've missed your cute little laugh." I say as I kiss Aria's forehead.
" You should have seen the look on your face when Hanna came in here, priceless." Aria giggles.
" Let's just pretend like that never happened and get some sleep." I suggest.
" Good idea." Aria says as she cuddles me.
" Goodnight love." I say as Aria closes her beautiful eyes.
