HERE'S THE NEXT CHAPTER ENJOY! JUST A HEADS UP, ARIA IS EMOTIONAL IN THIS CHAPTER. STUPID HORMONES. HAHAHA, BUT AGAIN ENJOY AND DON'T FORGET TO REVIEW I LOVE HEARING FROM YOU PEEPS...
I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH PRETTY LITTLE LIARS...
ARIA...
"You should call him, Aria" Spencer said as she took a seat on the couch
"Why should I? it's been over a month maybe he moved on? plus he was the one that blow up not me" I replied seating next to her.
"No he hasn't moved on he's going crazy without! he misses you." Hanna told her.
"I miss him too. Johnathan is always asking me where is daddy? but I don't have the heart to tell him" I said with a few tears leaving my eyes.
"So what do you tell him?" Emily asked
"I change the subject every time. And it breaks my heart." I said wiping my face. "Does he know where I am?"
"NO! we always say that you haven't contacted us yet." Spencer answered."But he know's where lying!"
I nodded my head "I just don't know what to do. Why doesn't he trust me? I asked looking at them.
"Aria... You've kept a lot of secrets from him for a while. It was only a matter of time before he exploded." Emily said taking a sip of her drink.
"Yeah, think how you would feel if the situation were reversed" Spencer chimed in.
"I guess you're right!" I sigh and gave my three best friends a hug " I'll call him later tonight, you guys have a safe drive home okay."
Ezra...
"It's been a month and I still haven't heard from Aria...I'm always asking her friends where she is, but I get the same answer every time. I know their lying. How can they not know where she is? I did get a slip up from Hanna though, but all I got was she's in New York. And when I questioned her more she took off."
"Aria has a condo in New York but I never found out where in New York is it located. I'm just about going insane thinking about her and Johnathan and not to mention our unborn baby. We were supposed to go for an ultrasound. To see how the baby was doing. I just wish she would call, text even a freaking letter would ease the pain in my heart. But nothing I got nothing." I cried to Hardy, we were sitting in Hollis bar having a few..."what am I supposed to do Hardy? I cried as I chugged down my beer.
"Maybe you should talk to her parents? Ask them for the address or something!" Hardy replied.
"Yeah, I did that and all Ella said was... Give her some time she'll come back" Ezra spat. "I can't do this anymore."
"Ezra you're drunk let me drive you home" Hardy said helping Ezra to his feet.
"Home? what Home? it's Aria's house I'm staying at. look at this house it's so beautiful right Ezra, this is where were going to start our new lives. Together as a family" Ezra slurred out. "yeah what family, she took everyone with her."
"Give me you're keys Ezra, I'll drive you" hardy said digging in to his pocket.
"Hardy, I'm not gay. take you hands out of my jeans." Ezra laughed... "And I can drive myself home"
"No you can't Ezra!" Hardy yelled out. "now give me your damn keys."
Aria...
"Come on John, take a bath please" I begged as I tried to get him in the shower.
"But I want, Daddy!" Johnathan yelled.
"Well he's not here" I told him as I took his shirt off
"Then go get him" Johnathan said with tears coming down his cheek
"Please will you take a bath, and I'll see what I can do"
"Fine" he replied with his little pout, and hopped into his warm bath.
"Thank you!" I whispered to myself and helped Johnathan with his bath. About an hour later, I was reading him Good Night Moon. And before I knew it Johnathan was asleep, and I had my fundraiser function to prepare for.
I was just sitting at the computer, finishing up the programs for the fundraiser when I decide I would call Ezra. Taking my phone out and a few deep breaths, I dialed the familiar number. It took awhile before he answered, but at least he answered.
"Hello, Ezra" I said over the loud noise in the back ground
"Awia" Ezra slurred
"Are you drunk?" I asked getting a little frustrated
"No I'm just out at Hollis" Ezra answered and in the background I heard someone tell him to hand the phone over.
"Who is that?"
"what are you talking about?" Ezra kept mumbling his words
"You know what nevermind, forget I'd call" I told him and went to hung up the phone when someone with much better speaking habit's came on"
"Aria?"
"Yeah. who's this?" I asked a little confused
"It's Hardy, Ezra is drunk. I'm sorry" Hardy replied
"Yeah, well just tell him. I said to have fun." I told him and hung up the phone. Flying it in the process. Only to pick it up a few minutes later to call spencer...
Spencer had answered on the third ring. "Hello"
"How could you lie to me like that?" I exploded on the phone
" what are you talking about Aria?" Spencer asked confusion in her voice.
"I called Ezra, it sounded like he was having the time of his life with Hardy." I spat. "I thought you said he missed me!... I thought you said he wanted me back...blah blah blah..."
"Aria, you need to clam down. Ezra's probably just burning off some steam" Spencer replied...
"I doubt that!" I yelled and hung up the phone. I can't believe this.
General POV:
"What happen?" Emily asked as spencer put the phone in the cup holder
"That was Aria, she said that she called Ezra and he was drinking." Spencer replied
"Okay?" Hanna said "what else did she say?"
"She said, how could we lie about Ezra missing her when he's out having the time of his life." Spencer finished.
"But we didn't lie." Emily said confused.
"Let me call him" Hanna said getting her phone out...
"Hello?" someone answered but it wasn't Ezra.
"Who is this? and where is Ezra?" Hanna said in a rushed tone.
"Who is this?
"I asked you first?" Hanna spat
"This is Hardy, Ezra's friend" Hardy replied "Now who is this?''
"This is Hanna, Aria's friend, put Ezra on the phone"
"Hellooo" Ezra slurred into the receiver.
"What the hell is wrong with you? Aria finally calls you and you decided to go out and get yourself drunk." Hanna yelled
"She called" was Ezra reply
"Are you stupid or something? for weeks you've asked us to help you out with Aria. We finally get Aria to call you and you don't even remember?"
"Where is she Hanna" Ezra said in a little sober voice.
"Why should I tell you?"
"Because you're right, I've only been drinking cause I don't have her. Please tell me where she is." Ezra asked nicely.
"I guessed my yelling sobered you up pretty fast huh? Hanna smiled "Hold on" she said and put the phone on mute.
"So should we tell him? maybe he would go their or something?" Hanna asked the girls. They both looked at each other and nodded there heads in agreement.
"Ezra?" Hanna said coming back on the phone.
"Are you going to tell me or not?" Ezra said in frustration
"If you talk to me like that again, I'll never tell you anything" Hanna responded, she wasn't about to taken some bull-shit from a drunk.
"I'm sorry Hanna, please tell me where Aria is. I need to make thing's right..." Ezra apologized.
"Okay, she's in new york. West 24th street, it's a big white building you can't miss it." Hanna replied
"what condo number? Ezra asked
"It's the very top floor, just buzz the maintenanceand they'll let you in. Tell them that you're here to see Christine Patterson." Hanna told him
"why Christine Patterson?" Ezra asked confused.
"Cause she own's the building."
"Wait! she uses her middle name?" Ezra asked really confused, or it could just be the Alcohol...
"Yes, she does... Aria wanted a life outside of rosewood." Hanna replied not going into full detail.
"Thank you Hanna I own you one" Ezra said pleased that he finally got some answers
"You own me you're life Ezra," Hanna laughed and hung up the phone." I hope were doing the right thing guys."
"Me too." spencer and Emily said in unison.
Ezra's POV:
"Give me my key's Hardy!" I yelled when I hung up with Hanna.
"yournot driving Ezra, your drunk" Hardy exclaimed and walked away with my key's in hand.
"Hardy, I'm not playing with you now!" I said with determination and frustration. "Give me my damn key's I'm going to New York"
"you're not driving anywhere tonight Ezra you can barely walk straight let alone drive all the way to New York." Hardy said shoving the key into the lock hole.
"Fine, your driving and I don't want to hear anything out of your mouth, the hole way there." I told him as he fumble to the passenger seat.
"I'm not going to New York, that's a 3 hour drive." Hardy said starting up the car and pulled out of the parking lot.
"Yes you are, if not then get the hell out of my car." I yelled this was bull-shit...
"Fine, we'll go to New York." Hardy said finally giving in.
I looked at Hardy and started laughing "You should see your face, you look like a five-year old with that pout"
"Why do you always do this? Hardy asked
"Do what?" I asked confused to his question.
"Always run after Aria? Every time you two get into a fight, your always running toward her! ever thought of letting her come to you? Hardy said with concern on his face.
"I love her Hardy, what else is there?" I said with a smile
"I think you, guys need couple therapy or something, your always fighting!" Hardy mention and returned his eyes back on the road.
"It's my fault she ran off, to New York Hardy. I pushed her away and I want her back" I said with a few tear rolling down my cheek.
"Okay Ezra" Hardy sigh "I'll take you to New York, why don't you get some sleep and I'll wake you when we get there"
"Thank's Hardy" I told him and patted his shoulder.
Hardy laughed "I just wanted you stop gushing, Ezra"
"Shut-up, I don't gush" I said while blushing, it's a good thing it's dark and he couldn't see that.
Hardy laughed again "what ever you say man."
I rolled my eyes and looked out the window. I'm wiling to do anything to get Aria back. I thought to myself as I slowly drifted off to sleep.
