I think you will really enjoy it but more about that at the end! i am working on my other story you should check it out! I will start on the new chapter tonight but no promises, sorry.
I don't own anything about PLL
There was a small knock at the door and a small voice said. "Ezra? Aria? Its me."
I practically ran to the door wanting to get away from the fast food that was laid out infront of me. I swung the door open only to revel my best friend.
"Hey come in Han." I said pulling her into a hug.
"I herd about what happen at your house so I figured you'd be here" she said gesturing to the small messy apartment.
"I just wanted to tell you that Spencers, Em's and my mums have dropped the whole not seeing your friends charade." She smiled and rubbed my arm. "Oh and also I wanted to ask if you had called that guy back yet? The one that liked your singing?" she asked as I lead her to the couch.
"No he said I had to get my mum or dad to speak to him and that door was slammed in my face. So now there is nothing I can do…' I said looking down at my hands. I mean I had never really thought about being a singer before but when you think about it… it would be a job I would love, like never going to work and being paid for it! But I had no chance now.
"Just give him a call saying your interested but when you turn 18?" she said trying to comfort me.
Okay I will give it a shot in the morning" I smiled at her. She was eyeing the untouched food in front of me and I giggled to myself.
"Do you want it?" I said gesturing to the food in front of me.
"No I'll pick something up on my way home" she shook her head.
"No really Han have it I'm not going to eat it anyway!" I shrugged and I realised what just slipped out of my mouth from in between my lips, now I would have to explain.
"What do you mean? I thought you guys where doing way better now?" she smiled apologetically at Ezra and I. I looked over for permission and he nodded sadly.
"Um no we were doing okay I guess," I said taking Ezra's hands into my smaller ones, "we got a call from Rosewood Police today… it wasn't Ezra's mother." I said as my eyes began to well up with tears.
"What do you mean?" Hanna said mortified and I knew why.
"I will explain it to you later…" I said shaking my head because I new the pain it would cause Ezra. She understood and took the small burger into her two hands and started munching away.
After Hanna left I brushed my teeth and climbed under the cold white sheets of Ezra's bed waiting for him to join me. I felt empty I mean I still had Ezra but my family was gone and I feared calling that guy tomorrow. I was more scared then ever of –A. How low could one person go? I feel like if I was ever to find out who this person was they should go into a home for the mental! And be guarded by police 24/7!
After about 10 minutes of waiting for Ezra enough was enough I felt cold and I needed his strong arm around my small helpless body. I slid out of the cold crisp sheet and wandered out to find him. The apartment was dark with only the silvery light of the moon to help me find my way. I Found Ezra's large dark figure shaking with quiet sobs at the foot of the couch. I tiptoed over to him wrapping my arms around him. He turned around so I was sitting in his lap. I wiped the salty tears of his face with my hands as he reached out to tuck a loose strand of my hair behind my ear.
"I'm so sorry…" I said tucking my head into the crook of his neck.
"Why are you sorry? It's not your fault sweet heart. If anything I'm sorry!" I answered into my hair. And at this point I knew I had to tell him about –A. he didn't fully understand the situation and it wasn't fair on him. I new that this could mean –A was onto him as well but right now I had to take that rick.
"Ezra? There is something I have to tell you… I'm sorry to remind you of this but do you remember when we found your mother's look a like?" he nodded in response rubbing my back, "and the –A on her fore head?" he nodded again as I reminded him again of the awful events that took place in his bed room, "there is something that I have been keeping from you, but you have to know that I did it for your safety! The girls and I know what the –A means. It's a person, we don't know who but this person holds things against you like when we went to your mothers place and what happened there that is why –A is doing this. That was not your mother Ezra but –A has her…" I rambled on trying to get everything out at once and trying not to forget things.
"What do you mean? You new about this and didn't tell me?" hurt flashed across his face and then disappeared on came a face of consantration and thinking.
"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked as I put my head down and started to cry.
"I I'm sorry but I only it because I new what –A would do…" I said trying to crawl of his lap.
"Where are you going?" he pulled me back onto his lap and wiped the hot stream of tears of my face.
"I'm sorry I thought I was doing the right thing." I said gazing into his eye's he pulled my face closer and finally his soft lips were pressed up against mine it was a slow and meaningful kiss. When he pulled back his lips were slightly turned up at the corners.
"So your not mad at me?" I whispered.
"A little but lets deal with that later? First we should find out who the master mind behind this is?" he said patting my hair.
"Ezra you don't understand… this isn isn't the first thing that '-A' has done! –A holds things over our heads…" I got half of it out before I was cut of.
"What do you mean… our heads? Who else knows about this?
"Its only me and the girls… Hanna, Spencer and Emily." I sobbed into his chest.
"What did –A do to you?" he asked placing a kiss in my hair. This was my turn to spill! No holding back no more secrets!
"-A knows about you and I… and has been threatening to tell people for a… a long time now. –A sent that message when I left my phone here. –A has done so many more things to us!" I said still clutching myself to his muscular chest.
"Why didn't you tell me? I could have helped you… were in this together."
"I know but –A was the reason I couldn't! I really am sorry." I said and more tears made there way down my face.
"Come on lets get some sleep? We can talk about this later." With that said he picked me up and took me to his bedroom. We both went to sleep content with the fact that we were in each others arms.
The next morning I woke up to the shrill ringing of my phone. I lent over to the foot of the bed to dig through my bag. Once I found it I flipped it op3en oblivious to the horrible message it contains.
Dear Aria
You think lover boy is going to be safe? Well think again bitch! I have my way and I'm always winning!
~A
"Aria? Babe are you okay?" Ezra said waltzing into the bedroom.
I plastered a fake smile on my face and responded, "that all depends on one thing," he tilted his head to the side as if to ask what?, "on what time it is?" I smiled and I sat up in the warm bed.
"Its know 10 past 11… so get ready to make your 11:11 wish!" he always teased me about my wishing an all but lets face it 1) better be safe then sorry and 2) it did its self justices when I wished I would be with him forever… okay so maybe we can't tell if that one had has happened yet but it will don't worry, we have come this far and we are moving forward… together.
"Yes I will make my wish… and you should make one to!" I smiled up at him because he never wish, not on shooting stars and not and 11 minuets past 11 but the one thing he did wish on was his birthday cadels on the cake.
"11:11" he anouced, so we both closed our eyes and made our wish hand in hand.
"what did you wish for?" he asked climbing onto the bed next to me.
"Ezra I can't tell you! The same rules from the birthday candells apply here as well!" he sigh and got of the bed.
"Come on cutie I already got us coffee" he said with a smile playing on his lips. I happily got off the bed taking his extended hand.
We drank our coffee with our normal stunday morning chit chat. Like what did you dream about? What do you want to do today? There was one question that was left un answered and nether of them would be the one to bring it up… "when are we going public?" that question was always in her mind, honesly they lived together now! People wpuld have to start noticing, wouldn't they?
Once their coffee cupps where draind and spong bob squar pant was over Ezra turned to Aria.
"Remember you have to call that guy… whatever his name was?" he said and it was something I had dreamt about last night… about him not caring for my parents consent but taking me anyway.
"I know and his name was Damien, Damien Daniels. Ezra can I ask you something?" I said taking his big hands into my smaller ones.
"Of cause… what on your mind sweet heart?" he said rubbing my hands in his.
"What if he says no? what if he changed his mind and doesn't want a shy, short 17 year old singing for him?" I said looking into my lap.
"For one your shortness is cute and two Aria you are and amazing singer he would be crazy to turn you down no matter how old you are!" he said lifting my chin up and placing a soft sweet kiss apon my lips. The kiss became heated quikly, when he pulled away I was sitting on his lap.
"Go and call." He said rubbing my check. I signed and got of his lap saurtering over to my bag where the bisness card was. I pulled the little rectangle out of my silver bag and walked over to Ezra's home phone.
My finger glid across the key board pressing each number pricisley.
"Hello?" a young guy asked, one I reconised to be Mr Damien Daniels.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" the voice said gain, but I couldn't bring myself to speak through to the person on the othere line.
"Hello?" it sadi once again.
"Umm, yes h-hello" I stuttered wondering if the man could hear me.
"Yes hello, how may I help you?" he asked in an annoyed tone.
"Yes you could I'm Aria Montgiomery and I was wondering if I could talk to Damien Daniels?" I said more clearly, rememberingthe stong girl that I was.
"Oh Aria? Yes I have been waiting for your call for about a week now."
"Yes I'm sorry but that is kind of what I wanted to talk to you about… its really complicated but getting to the point my mother or father wont talk to you." I said remembering what they said.
"Well Miss Montgomery this is going to be a proberlem for 2 reasons 1) you are under age and 2) I already found a beautiful girl with a amazing voice so… maybe we will meet later on?" he already Found someone? How? When? And most importantly who?
"Oh okay…" I didn't really know what to say.
"Listen I have to go!" he said and hung up.
I put the phone back on the cradle and turned around to Ezra, he was looking at me curiesly waiting for an answer.
"So? What did he say?" he smiled at me.
"He… He already has a girl plus I'm underaged." I shrugged.
"Oh Aria I'm so sorry Aria! Who did he find?" he asked.
"I'm not sure… he hung up before I could ask.
Okay so my idea for the next chapter is to have a perspective from everyone evolved at this point ie, Ell, Byron, Ezra, Aria, Ezra's family and maybe even a -A perspective. Tell me what you think? if you don't like it then give me and idea? I hope you enjoyed this because its the product of my boredom! Please review?
