Ezra's POV
I was about to drop Malcolm off at his weekly Karate lesson when someone caught my eye. She was 5'2 and brunette with hazel eyes and an angular face. She was the girl I spend countless night cuddling up on the couch, eating Chinese takeout and watching old movies. To be honest, we weren't really watching the movies, we were making out on the couch. She was the girl who spent almost every night at my apartment, the one who had a drawer of her clothes in my wardrobe. She was the only who I was madly in love with.
In front of me, stood Aria Montgomery. I was contemplating whether or not I should say hi when I saw she had her lips locked with a handsome stranger. As soon as I saw her lips on another guy's lips, I broke down.
The tears started falling from my eyes at the speed of a waterfall. I tried to wipe them away but it was no use. How could this be happening? Aria was supposed to be mine. I was supposed to be the only guy she ever kissed. I was supposed to be 'the one.' How could Aria do this to me? Didn't she care about me anymore?
"Daddy, what's going on?" I heard Malcolm ask, pulling my arm. What am I supposed to tell him? I wondered. He is too young to understand relationships. "Umm...Nothing," I lied, wiping my eyes. "Let's go inside."
I dropped Malcolm inside and told him I will pick him up in 3 hours. I walked back to my car. I decided to spend the rest of my day getting drunk of my ass.
Aria's POV
"I'm going to go now, my class is starting in 5 minutes." Jake told me, waving his hand. I nodded and watched him walk away. I was now alone in an empty car park. I had messed up my life in 1 second, if that was possible. Now Ezra would never take me back. I was such a failure.
I fell onto the ground and cuddled myself into a small ball. I wished Ezra was here to hold me in his arms and tell me everything would be okay. I wished I had never broken up with Ezra. I did not care if he had a son or taught at Rosewood High. I would take him back any second.
I could not live like this. I could spend every day of the rest of my life mourning over the loss of Ezra. Today I am going to forget about him! I decided. I would drown my sorrows at a bar and forget about Ezra. I would start dating Jake and life would be perfect.
I drove to Snookers and parked my car in one of the empty parking lots. No one asked for my ID so I walked right in, after all I was 17 but looked 21. I took a seat on one of the stools. This was the bar in which Ezra and I met. This bar was filled with a zillion memories. Luckily, the song B-26 was not playing on the radio, or else I would have burst into tears for the millionth time today.
"Hey, Do you want a cheese burger?"I heard the bartender ask me. He had a cheese burger on a plate in front of me. This burger reminded me of the time Ezra and I met. I had ordered a Burger and he was drinking scotch. I wish I could rewind to last year and live it all again. Compared to this year, last year was gold.
Once the bartenders saw my tears he seemed unsure of what to say. "Umm...How about a vodka soda?" He asked, tossing the burger in the trash. I nodded. "I want 3 vodka soda's, 5 tequila shots, some scotch and whatever else you have." I ordered.
He looked at me surprised but after a few minutes he started pouring the drinks in a glass. I gulped up the shots one after the other and cried like I had never cried before. I cried for every messed up aspect in my life. I cried because my parents got a divorce and it was all my fault. I cried because Spencer landed in Radley and I did not realize she was hurting until yesterday morning. But mostly, I cried about Ezra.
I ordered a few more shots. I wanted to forget about everything. After a few minutes, I felt dizzy. I had already puked 5 times and thought I was going to die. Never the less, I shoved more of the liquor down my throat. Stop! My brain seemed to be screaming at me. At this point, I did not care if I died. I only wanted to get lost in the alcohol and forget everything in my life.
Suddenly, I heard a loud thud. Before I knew it, I was falling off the stool and landing on the ground. Then, everything went black.
Ezra's POV
Malcolm was at his Karate lesson so I decided to go to snookers and get a drink or two. The last time I had been here was on my one year anniversary with Aria. We had decided to meet at Snookers on September 1st for the rest of out lives. We were going to make it our tradition. I felt like I was being stabbed when I realized Aria and I would never have another anniversary together as a couple.
I shook my head, trying to get these thoughts out of my brain. I was here to get drunk, meet some chicks and take them back to my apartment. I was definitely not here to cry about Aria.
I walked in and was greeted by a very chaotic situation. The bartender was kneeled on the ground, attending to a very drunk, passed out women. I moved closer and realization sunk in. That very pretty girl on the ground was Aria Montgomery.
A/N- I am going to promise you something-In this story Ezria is endgame but Jake, Maggie and Malcolm will have a big impact on the story line. In Chapter 4 or 5 you will find something really shocking about Maggie, that will change the way Ezra acts towards her forever.
