AN: Thank you for all the reviews. AGAIN, I don't own anything.
*Ezra was standing 5 feet in front of me.*
Chapter 3
Aria's POV:
As I made my way to Ezra's desk, we hadn't taken our eyes away from each other once. I couldn't help but to examine his face, he still looked the same. Nothing had changed about him, he still had the same bright, blue eyes and the same smile that I fell in love with every time I seen him. I couldn't believe that I was going to be talking to him. Ezra, the man I had longed for four years.
Ezra's POV:
She got nearer and nearer, and my hands got sweatier and sweatier, my whole body was shaking. I couldn't believe it. How could Aria be here? I mean, the last time I saw her was four years ago, she is twenty now. Why is she at Hollis? I realized I had been staring at her for a while when she coughed to let me know that she was standing right in front of me. She looked as beautiful as ever, her eyes looked more mature, but still the same beautiful, large hazel eyes that I had always loved. Her loose curls fell around her face. While she was standing there, I regretted calling her behind because I didn't have a clue what I was going to say to her. I mean, how do you greet the love of your life whom you haven't seen or heard from in four years? Its kind of awkward. Aria, the most courageous out of us both however, started the conversation with a simple, 'Hey, Ezra,' those simple two words made my heart go weak; her saying my name gave me a chance of hope, she had a sense of shyness in her voice but fortunately there was no anger. 'Aria, I...' I started to speak before I was cut off by Aria who broke down crying in front of me. I hated seeing her like this, I knew I had to help her. I took her into my arms and held her, I held her as long as I could before she broke out of our embrace and looked up at me. I fixed the hair from her face behind her ears and held her face in my hands. Even when she was crying she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. She stared at me and there was no conversation, but words weren't needed.
General POV:
Aria finally got herself together and stood up. Still, she hadn't taken her eyes off Ezra. She wiped the tears from her eyes and said sorry to Ezra before she turned to walk out the door of his room. Ezra got up to go after her and she turned around, gave him a slight kiss on the cheek and walked on out of the room. Ezra had desperately wanted to run after her, but he knew he couldn't. He knew Aria and he knew she hadn't wanted him to come running after her, she needed time.
Aria's POV:
I walked out of Ezra's room, giving him a slight kiss on the lips. The kiss lasted no longer than a second, but it was the best kiss I had ever experienced. I had forgotten what a kiss was like from him. His kiss always gave me fireworks inside of my body, it felt like a volt of electricity going up my spines. I knew we couldn't do this again. I couldn't hurt him again. He had probably moved on and had a girlfriend that didn't risk him losing his job or being jailed. If he had moved on, I'm sure his new girlfriend didn't have a psycho stalker that knew everything about their relationship and would stop at nothing to let the whole of Rosewood know and when I say stop at nothing, I even mean death. My eyes were filled with tears and I was so thankful that I had no other classes that day. My throat was hoarse and I had a huge lump right in the middle, I couldn't hide my tears anymore. I ran to my room, put in my earphones and turned 'The Fray - Happiness' up as loud as I could.
...
After about three hours, I had eventually calmed down. My phone started to vibrate and I looked down at it to see that I had a new message. It was probably Spencer, she told me she would call me later, but I guess something came up so she just text instead, so, I ignored the text and stared at the walls of my room.
My phone vibrated again, I opened the message and my eyes grew wide with horror..
'Well, well, well ... look whose back in a classroom with Mr. Fitz again. You better watch out, you might not be the only girl in his life anymore. -A'
'Aria, you know you can't ignore me. As long as I'm keeping your dirty little secret, you'll be hearing a lot of me ;). -A'
I deleted the messages straight away. How could this be happening again? Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, I couldn't be more wrong. A would never be away, they were always there and deep down I knew they always would be. There was only one way to solve this and it wasn't going to be good. I ran through my contacts on my phone until I came to 'mom,' I knew I had to do this. I waited for her patiently to answer, after three tries, I decided she wasn't going to answer. The only other person that could help me was Ezra. I decided to text him hoping that he still had the same number.
'Hey, was wondern if u culd meet me at Hollis bar? -Aria.'
I didn't even have to think before I received a text back.
'Wats up? B ther in 10-Ezra x'
I didn't bother to text back, I went and fixed up my make up and headed to the Hollis bar. I kept staring at the text from Ezra, he had sent an 'x' which, for any other person was normal, but Ezra only sent an 'x' on the rarest of occasions and I was wondering why he had sent one tonight.
There's chapter 3. Hope you liked it and please review! Up next, what happens in the bar. AND, plenty of Ezria!
