Okay guys here is chapter two! I am trying to write every chance I get but I take the SAT this week so I've been studying my butt off! This chapter is more like a transition to the next couple of chapters where I plan to have something special happen. If you have any idea I'm always up to hear it so please review what you think could happen. I did make a tumblr to post my writing on so I'd appreciate if y'all followed it and or reblogged the links! You can find it at blog/ezzzriasaddictionn so please check it out! Anyways get to reading and maybe comment I really wanna hear what you think so I can improve. However I won't be that writer who complains that I only got so many comments and don't feel appreciated because if I didn't want to write I wouldn't. ENJOY!

As Aria walked from her dad's house to The Brew she slowly got nervous. Why was she nervous about Ezra? He was the love of her life, the one who knows her better than anyone, then herself sometimes. Life had brought so many obstacles onto her, Ali's fake death, her dad's affair, her relationship with Ezra, and the struggle with A. When she left Rosewood she didn't expect to miss home and when she came back she realized she didn't miss home. But she missed him. Ezra. And walking to The Brew, to Ezra's loft, she realized that she didn't leave her physical home. she left Ezra, Ezra was her home.

When she got close to the door she stopped, took a deep breath, and put a smile on her face. Aria stepped inside the small coffee shop turned bookshop looking around for Ezra. Upon not spotting him she decided to head up to the loft. However when she was on the second step, she was startled by a hand grabbing hers.

"Sorry ma'am, you can't go up there. you aren't authorized."

"Oh, uhm sorry. I was just going to see Ezra he said to come by and see him. I won't be long at all just to grab him. and when did I need to be authorized to go up there, I've bee going up there for years"

"I still can't let you do that, this is my first week and I can't really get into trouble." I slightly giggled, not wanting to be rude but wanting to see Ezra.

Mines Aria."

"Well it's Jesse. Nice to meet you Aria but I really need you to stay in the store."

"Okay, okay. I get it. However if you go into the kitchen look on the wall next to the desk with all the pictures on it and you should see me. I'm Ezra's ex girlfriend and publisher. If you want me to wait for Ezra I will. Just to be safe." The girl slightly embarrassed, looks back to see her coworker laughing and knows she screwed up. That Aria wasn't just a costumer she was the real deal and that she'll be around for awhile.

"Well by the look of her you should just go up, I think he's up there, sorry.," she says slightly embarrassed with a smile.

"Okay, have a nice day," I say as I start to walk up the stairs. Oh my God that just made me so much more nervous. Get yourself together Aria, it's just Ezra. Your Ezra, the same guy that you fell in love with. The guy who's always been there. As I approach the door I wonder if I should just get the key and walk in or just knock. I decide to knock just to be nice. I raise my hand and knock but not before a pause a bit out of nervousness. When I get enough nerves I knock on the door bringing me times in which we spent so much time in 3B. Immediately Ezra opens the door with a smile and I'm no longer nervous, just happy to see him.

After the initial thoughts upon seeing Ezra I soon realize Ezra had just woken up by is demeanor, yawning he greets me,"Aria! Hi I didn't expect you this early. Let me change and we'll head down." He heads to his room and I wonder if I should follow him but my question is soon answered by Ezra calling me. "Aria, you don't have to stand out there. Come on in, you won't see anything too crazy, or something that you haven't already," he says with a chuckle. It brings a smile to my face. Ezra was really attractive, I had never lost that attraction towards him. Even when I thought he didn't love me. He wasn't too muscular that I didn't want to cuddle him, but he definitely had some sort of muscle. Just the right amount, just right for my Ezra.

"Oh, whatever. You are just trying to be cute," I say with a slight smirk. "How was your night? You texted me pretty late. Are you alright?" I said not wanting to step over that imaginary line but wanting to know if he's okay.

As soon as I asked him he stops ruffling through his drawers and turns around. Scratching his neck he replies,"Yeah, I'm okay. I just couldn't sleep and well wanted to make sure we were okay, you were okay," he says with worry in his voice that he is trying to mask. However I know he's nervous, scratching his neck is his tell-tale sign as well as the shake in his voice.

"Okay, now stop it. It's just me Ez, just Aria. No need to worry or be nervous. We've been through hell and back together. You don't have to worry about me. I'll always be here. I know, I left you but now I'm back and I'm not leaving you. Even if I have to come back for good. Ezra you are worth it. I'm worried about you. I'll be here as your friend, your editor, whatever you need to get back on track," I said sympathetically as Ezra pulls a shirt out and puts it on, covering his slight abs.

"Aria, do you think that you abandoned me? You needed to get out of here, you needed to focus on you. Don't ever believe that you left me and I suffered. I never did, I found happiness in someone else but you were always in my mind. I was happy that you were happy and I found mine too amongst it all. Even though Nicole was taken from me and I'm still hurting, hell I haven't stopped hurting but you being here is helping and I'm so great full for you. And that you would think to help me out," he says with a slight smile as he comes closer. We look each other in the eye and for the first time since I left for college five years ago I actually feel safe. Even more safe in his arms as he embraces me in a friendly hug.

After we order our coffee, we find a couch to sit at and just talk. Talk about everything that's happened since we were together. It was mostly me talking but I figured that Ezra didn't know how to talk about his time with Nicole yet. And I accepted that. Just being able to connect with him was great. Telling him about my crazy college adventures he parties, the classes, and maybe the few male conquests I did have. Which was very few and far between although I am kinda seeing Liam. However I don't see us lasting too much longer seeing as I am in Rosewood and he is in Boston and I am currently with the love of my life.

"So since you have told me about the college years, tell me about the adult world you have just begun," he says with a smirk and a wink. I don't know what to tell him other than that I love my job and I try to avoid the topic of Liam.

"Well, I am so happy with my job. Other than Julian, my witch of a boss, it seems everything I do is not good enough. It's my dream job, really. Living in Boston is great, in a place where no one knows who I am. I'm not one of Ali's friends, not the girl who was always caught in the news for something, and not one of them who was stuck in Charlotte's doll house. It was nice to be gone and anonymous for once but I miss home. I miss my dad surprisingly, although I see my mom more but still she's here. I grew up here, and I want my kids to grow up here so I don't know if I'll stay , I came back for the hearing, and yes you are part of the reason I'm staying, but I just think that I need to come back to my roots. To where it all began, to where I could find my happiness in the worst of times."

"Aria, you have your dream job so are you sure you want to give it up on a hunch? I know you want those things but do you want to give it up now so soon? I know I sound like a broken record but Aria you need to be happy too," he says with an apologetic smile. I reach up and wipe his hair off his forehead and look back up at him full of alarm and confusion quickly pulling my hand back.

"Sorry, so enough about me tell me something. It doesn't have to be about her just tell me about something interesting. Something out of the ordinary," I saw with a slight smile and a bit of embarrassment.

So hopefully you guys like this chapter. Tell me whatcha think and try to review. I'd love to hear what you have to say. Anyways I don't know when I'll have time to update with this huge test coming up. Next chapter maybe I'll bring some conflict in? Love with a side of deceit?
