Little White Lies
Teacher's Pet
"Everything ok, Spence?" Hannah asked her sickly, looking friend. Spencer looked up at her friends and told them her grandma had ended up in the hospital.
"I thought she died our freshman year, is she back from the dead or something? Is that why she's at the hospital, because she's a zombie now?" Aria said in a dead serious tone. Spencer reminded her friend, that Spencer had another grandma who was alive and well.
"Oh, well. On that joyful little note, I'm gonna head off to class before I'm late!" Hannah stood up and grabbed her bags. "Hannah Marin, actually wanting to go to class? I'm in the Twilight Zone!" Spencer joked
.
Hannah rolled her eyes, and walked off. "So what's with your family?" Spencer glared at Aria with a nasty looking face. "What do you mean?" Aria quickly became apologetic, as if she had something wrong. "I meant, how is everyone? I didn't mean for it to sound harsh. Sorry."
Spencer just smiled and said it was fine. 'Melissa has become a little moody lately, she completely went off on Ian the other day, and almost took off my head because I was wearing her bracelet."
The first bell rang, and the two gal pals headed their separate ways. Of course Aria had been late to her French class.
When third period came, Aria was in a texting trance, wanting to talk to her new obsession and little love. Ezra.
Ezra, we should have dinner 2nite! I can cook!
Aria sent a text to her little lover, hope he would reply as quickly as she had sent it. For someone she had just met, Aria had fallen in love, and quite quickly at that.
These two little love birds have been texting each other since Saturday night. Her phone buzzed with a new message.
Sounds great, I'll help! wrk, ttyl k?
Aria walked into her English class not expecting to be ambushed by her friend Hannah. "Aria, we got a problem, well you do anyway." Aria had no clue what she could be talking about, innocent little Aria did nothing wrong. "That cute guy you were flirting with at the coffee shop? Well, he..." Before she could even finish what she wanted to say, the teach announced that it was time to begin class.
"Please sit down, so we can start class." A familiar voice said out loud. Aria and Hannah looked over that new teacher, with wide eyed expression.
"No fucking way." Aria said out loud, louder than she thought she had said it. Everyone turned towards Aria and Hannah. Including the new, and devilishly handsome teacher, Ezra Fitz.
After the most awkward third period Aria ever had in her life, she stayed behind while others left the class room.
"I cannot believe you're my teacher! You don't even look old enough to be a teacher!" Ezra smiled at Aria. "really? So, I'm young and youthful looking?"
Aria hit him on the chest.
"What are we going to do?" Ezra had told her that everything would be fine, since all they did was talk and nothing more.
"Really? Cause I got a lot of love texts here that say other wise." Aria pointed out.
"What if it is something more though? I like you a lot. Ezra, there aren't any guys like you here!" Aria could almost feel her heart break into pieces.
"Wait a minute, you paid for my coffee, and had me to talk with you. Technically you paid me to sit, and have a conversation with you Ezra! Oh, god. I'm a coffee house prostitute!"
"Aria, you are not a prostitute, if you were one, then you're not very good at it." Ezra joked. Aria took Ezra hand with hers. "I like you a lot, and I want this to work between us. Could we at least try to make it work?"
Ezra looked at Aria's sad little eyes. "We could get in a lot of trouble, but I think your worth it. We cannot tell a soul though, you know that right?" Aria agree. Her secret, Romeo and Juliet romance had begun.
Her phone started buzzing. "It's probably Hannah, or Mona. We have plans to go out for lunch. "
She opened her flip phone to read the text message. It gave her a little bit of a chill, when she read what it said.
Aria, Aria, Aria. Putting a whole new level to 'student teacher' relationship, huh? Just remember. if you kiss, I'll tell!
-A
Aria quickly closed her phone in a panic."I'm sorry, I have to go. We'll talk later, right?"
"Right"
She ran out of Ezra's room, hoping that know would notice her.
Who could have known about this? Aria thought to herself. Then it hit her like bricks.
Hannah.
Aria thought it was time for some answer from her so-called "friend"
