**I do not own Pretty Little Liars or any of the characters**

Last Chapter

Before Ezra could respond my phone rang. I took it out and read the screen. My body froze and I started to panic. My phone said... You have an incoming call from Dad.

Aria's point of view

Oh crap! I thought to myself. My dad had to call now of all times!

"What's wrong?" Ezra asked.

"My dad," I said answering the phone. "Hello?"

"Hey honey," He greated.

"Is something wrong?" I asked hoping something or someone didn't tip him off.

"I was just wondering who the man is?" He asked.

"What?" I asked surprised by his question.

"The man, the one who's with you right now," He said strangely calm.

"A man? What are you talking about dad?" I questioned.

"The man that answered the phone."

My eyes almost popped out of my head and I stared at Ezra, who just looked worried.

"One second dad," I said covering the phone and turned to Ezra. "Did you answer my phone today?"

"No," He said confused. "You turned it off last night remember? You didn't turn it on until after breakfast."

I nodded and went back to my dad. "Dad I have no idea what your talking about."

"I've been trying to call you but your phone was off so I called Spencer," He explained. "But I hung up because this man answered the phone."

"Oh!" I said relieved. I turned and gave Ezra a quick smile and a thumbs up. Then I thought of an excuse. "We had a morning yoga class at the hotel and we left our purse with the attendant he must have answered Spencers phone."

"Oh alright," He said. Yes he bought it! "So hows New York?"

"It's great," I explained. "We've been having a great time just roaming the city."

"That's great to hear," Dad said sounding happy. "Well I was just checking in."

"Alright dad well I have to go we're going to have coffee."

"Okay have fun," He said. "I'll see you soon."

"Bye dad, love you."

"Love you too honey, bye."

I hung up the phone and leaned back in my chair.

"Oh god!" I laughed. "I totally thought we were busted!"

"It's okay," Ezra said taking my hand. "He's none the wiser."

"My heart is pounding," I said nervously.

"You alright?" Ezra asked looking a bit worried. "We can go back."

"No no," I said smiling. "I will not let this little scare ruin our day."

"Alright then," He smiled and kissed me.

We spent the next hour or two sipping lemonade and looking at the beautiful scenery as was drove around in the boat.

"It's so beautiful out here," I said. The sun was so hot the cool air from the boat/water felt really good.

"Come here," Ezra said pulling me to him. I sat down on his lap and rested my head on his shoulder. He put his hand on my knee and gently stoked my leg.

"Wait," I said getting up from him and walking over to my bag.

"What are you doing?" He laughed.

"I feel we need to document this trip," I smiled taking my camera out of my bag.

"You sure that's a good idea." He asked with a hint of doubt.

"It will be fine," I said sitting on his lap again. "I will guard these pictures very very well."

"Alright," He smiled.

We ended up taking like 20 pictures in various poses. I was so happy after taking these pictures. That really made me feel good that I had a picture with my new boyfriend.

After out little photoshoot Steven called down to us.

"Hey guys we're gonna stop for awhile to give the engine a bit of a rest," He explained. "If you want you can go for a swim off the boat."

"Awesome!" I said getting very excited.

I looked out at the water as we stopped the boat. It was beautiful shade of blue, not the crystal blue you see in the south; like in Cuba, but still amazing.

"You wanna go in?" Ezra asked as I stared at the water below.

"Yes!" I smiled. I had my swimsuit on under my clothes so I didn't have to change. I quickly pulled off my clothes and looked back at Ezra. He had taken off his white t-shirt and now I could see his toned chest muscles. He told me he had been working out at the gym after school and now I knew he really was and it was paying off. After I was done checking him out I noticed he was staring at me.

"Ezra?" I laughed walking towards him.

"I'm sorry," He said shaking his head and wrapping his arms around my waist. "You look very sexy." (AN: Again, pictures of Aria's swimsuit and the boat are on my profile)

"Thank you," I laughed and let my hand slide down his chest. "You look great too."

"Thanks, lets hit the water," He said then ran towards the other side of the boat.

"Thank you Spencer," I said to myself as I followed Ezra.

The back dock was where we could jump off into the water, because there was no railing there.

"Ready?" I asked taking his hand.

"1...2...3!" He yelled and we both jumped into the water.

The cool water felt so good on my skin during this hot day. Once I got back to the surface I looked around to see where Ezra had gone. I thought he might have swam to the other side of the boat so I started to move over that way, then I felt something touch my foot.

"Ah!" I yelled, jumping away from whatever touched me. Then I saw Ezra coming up from below the water.

"Sorry," He laughed. "I didn't think I would scare you that much."

"Its alright," I laughed putting my hand on my chest. "Yup it's still beating."

"That's always a good thing," Ezra laughed. "Come on."

We swam around the boat a few times then we decided to see what we could find in the water. The water wasn't extremely deep and so we could get to the bottom where the rocks and stuff were.

I was trying to find a cool rock as a little souvenir for this day. I was pushing myself along the bottom with my foot, then I stepped on something very sharp. I quickly swam back to the surface.

"Aria? Are you alright?" Ezra said swimming over to me.

"Ow ow my foot." I said breathing kinda heavy from the pain. "I stepped on something at the bottom."

"Here," He put an arm around my waist and put the other by my leg. "Can you lift your foot so I can see?"

I nodded and used him to balance as I brought my foot out of the water.

"Oh ouch," He said as his face scrunched up. "You have a piece of shell in your foot."

"What!" I panicked.

"Shh no no," He said gently putting my foot back in the water. "You'll be okay, we'll get you fixed up."

I was ok to swim back to the boat, with a little help from Ezra. Ezra helped me onto the boat to I wouldn't have to use my foot.

"Steven?" Ezra said.

"Yeah?" He said coming down the stairs.

"Do you have a first aid kit?"

"Oh yes," He said running off. "One second."

I sat down on my chair and Ezra sat infront of me, holding my foot.

"You alright?" He asked.

"Yeah," I said with a small smile. "It just hurts a bit."

"I bet," He said examenating my foot a bit more.

"Here we go," Steven said carrying a little white box. Ezra got up and Steven took his place infront of me.

"Oh well that looks painful," Steven said taking a look at my foot.

"Yeah a bit," I laughed as Ezra sat behind me and held my hand.

"Ok lets get this out first," He said getting ready to pull the glass or whatever out of my foot. "This may hurt a bit."

"Alright," I said nervously. He pulled out the sharp object and I felt a little stabbing pain. Ezra rubbed my back and let me grip his hand.

"Yeah it's a piece of broken shell," Steven said. He cleaned off my cut and put some spray on it to keep it from getting infected.

"There ya go," Steven said putting a band-aide on the cut. "Lucky it wasn't too deep."

"Thank you very much," I said.

"Not a problem," He smiled. "I'll start the boat and we will start to head off again."

"Sure, thanks again." Ezra said. Steven nodded and walked back to the controls.

"You alright?" Ezra asked.

"Yeah I'm fine now," I said picking up the shell and started to laugh.

"What?"

"When I was in the water I was looking for a rock as a souvenir from this day," I explained. "Instead I have a souvenir shell and a great story."

"That's true," He laughed. "I just wish you didn't have to get hurt to get it."

"Don't worry," I smiled and kissed him. "I'm fine."

"Good."

The boat started to move again and we were heading off. Ezra and I laid together on the lounge chair together, with me semi lying on him. It was nice to enjoy the peace of the water.

"Ezra?"

"Yeah?"

"I don't know what I would have done if you had left Rosewood." I said looking up at him.

"Me either Aria," He said. "As soon as the principal told Noel he wouldn't believe him again, I wanted to take you into my classroom and keep you there with me all day."

"That would have been nice." I smiled then sighed. "I was so scared when I saw you walking down the hall, I was terrified that that would be the last time I saw you."

"I know, I did too." He said. "As much as I didn't want it to be."

"I don't want that to ever happen again."

"Good neither do I," He said then kissed my forehead. "We'll just have to be careful from now on."

"Deal," I said. "Promise me something though."

"Anything."

"Promise me that if anything like that were to happen again...you wouldn't leave without saying goodbye."

"Aria, this isn't going to happen again."

"Please, just promise me," I said almost in tears. "You never know what will happen."

"I promise, I would never do that to you," He said putting his hands on the side of my face. "I love you Aria."

I just stared at him with an amazingly warm feeling in my heart. That was the first time Ezra had ever said that to me.

"I love you too," I smiled and then he kissed me.

The rest of the boat ride was amazing but all too soon it was over.

"Thanks for the great day Steven," Ezra said as we stepped off the boat.

"No problem," He smiled shaking our hands. "I'll glad you two had an amazing day."

"Yes that we did," I said smiling at Ezra.

_A few hours later_At the hotel_

"So remind me again of where we're going?" I asked Ezra as we walked out of our hotel room.

"I never told you," He laughed.

"Right," I said. "Well I think you should."

"I thought we made a deal?" He sighed.

"I remember no such thing," I said playing dumb.

"Yes you do," He poked my side. "We agreed if I told you how to dress for this location you would stop asking questions."

"Oh fine," I laughed. I suppose I was grateful he even gave me the hint on how to dress. I ended up wearing white skinny jeans, a black silk t-shirt and a grey cropped vest.

We made our way down to the lobby then exsited the hotel. I started to walk to the car but Ezra pulled me back.

"Nope." He smiled pulling me back to him. "We're staying in town tonight, it's not far."

"Alright," I smiled.

We walked only for about 10 minutes until Ezra stopped us infront of a bar/restaurant.

"A bar?" I asked in confusion.

"Yeah," He smiled as if he was waiting for me to realize something. That's when it hit me.

"Oh because of the night with Hardy!" I smiled at the memory.

"Yeah we talked about how we wish we could hang out at a bar, split a plate of fries, and play darts without an issue."

"Exactly," I smiled and kissed him quickly. I was amazed that he thought of all the things that we wished we could do.

"You really thought of every thing," I said and he seemed happy that I was pleased by his plans.

"Well then let's go," He said as he led me into the bar.

We walked into the bar and it seemed like a pretty cool place. We sat down at a little table by the window. We were looking over a menu and everything looked really good. Ezra and I had decided that we would have an appetizer meal tonight to make the bar experience fun.

"Would you like to order something?" A waitress asked as she approched our table.

"Yeah we would like an order of fries, spinach dip and nachos please," Ezra said

"Great," She smiled. "Anything from the bar?"

"I'll have a scotch on the rocks thanks." Ezra answered. (AN: I'm gonna assume that's what he was drinking in the episode 'Know Your Frenemie')

"And for you miss?" She asked me. I didn't know if I should actually order something; considering I was under age, so I looked at Ezra for a second. He smiled and nodded which I took as a cue to order.

"I'll have an appletini," I said.

"Great," She smiled. "I'll be right back with those."

"Thank you," I smiled back then whispered to Ezra. "That probably wasn't smart."

"Don't worry about it," He laughed. "They won't ask for your ID here plus you could pass for 21."

"Are you saying I look old?" I teased but tried to play serious.

"Oh no no," Ezra stammered. "I...I...ju..just meant that."

"Calm down," I smiled. "I'm just kidding."

"Here you go," The waitress said bringing us our drinks and a plate of fries. "The rest of your food will be out soon."

"That's great thanks," Ezra said.

"Ready for our darts game?" I asked.

"Of course," He smiled. We picked up our drinks and fries and walked over to a dart board on the wall.

"I hope you got better since last time," I teased.

"Oh come on what are you talking about?" Ezra said in mock hurt.

"You almost hit someone last time," I laughed. (AN: fun fact Ian Harding actually almost hit a crew member during that scene of darts)

"That was a fluke!" He defended.

"Sure sure just take your first shot," I said as I took a sip of my drink.

"Okay you win," Ezra said in defeat.

"That's right," I smiled pecking him on the lips. "2 games to 1."

"Alright let's go before our food gets cold," He said leading me back to the table.

"Yum it looks delicious," I said picking up a piece of the nachos.

"Yes it does, better than my cooking at home." He laughed.

"Now now you know how to make a few things," I defended.

"That's true," He agreed. "Thankfully we have take-out and your cooking skills."

"Exactly," I laughed. "This is really great Ezra."

"Yeah," He smiled taking my hand in his. "This does feel great, being out in the open and not having to worry."

"I could get used to this."

"I know I wish it could be like this everyday."

"That would be great," I said kissing him across the table. "But until then lets enjoy the time we have."

"Good idea," Ezra said picking up his glass. "To us."

"To us," I agreed as we clink our glasses together.

There ya go :) I hope you enjoyed it and it was worth the wait. Well I have to get my wisdome teeth out next week so I may have time to write the next chapter after I get off the drugs :P Thanks guys for being so understanding that im busy. I LOVE you all!
