Make sure to review!
Ezra falls to the floor with a thud. Laura drops the gun and slides down the wall in shock. I fall over Ezra and try to stop the bleeding.
"OH MY GOD Ezra. You're going to be okay. You'll be fine. You have to be..." I pull out my phone and dials 911.
"Drop the phone Aria." I whip around. My hands are covered in blood from where I covered Ezra's wound.
"Laura, if you love him you will let me get him help. He's dying."
"I didn't mean to...It was meant for you." I answers the phone.
"A man was shot at the Arrowwood apartments 3C...No I don't. Please hurry." I put the phone down. "Laura just turn yourself in. It doesn't have to be hard."
The ambulance comes and Ezra is wheeled into it. I just stand there watching everything go on. Laura is taken into custody as Jason arrives.
"Aria what happened?"
"I have to tell you some things Jason." I grab his hand and pull him into our apartment. It's challenging since the police are blocking most things. I slide past them and go into our apartment.
"What's wrong Aria? What happened?"
"Ezra was shot. But it wasn't meant for him."
"What do you mean it wasn't meant for him? Why was he here anyways?"
"When you were away I let my emotions get the better of me. And we shared..."
"You kissed him...again!" Jason launches towards me.
"Not exactly. We had sex. And the night you wanted to meet at the grille Ezra made another offer. And I was conflicted. And then Laura came here and she kidnapped me and threatened me if I didn't stay away from Ezra and so I came to you and then I tried to keep my distance from him, but then I saw him and Laura at the Grille today and Ezra followed me and Laura followed and then she tried to shoot me, but Ezra jumped in front of me and he got shot and that's why he's going to the hospital and i"m not. I love Ezra Jason and I'm going to go to the hospital to tell him. And when I come back I'm going to take my things and move them and then I never want to see you ever again. Because you Jason DiLaurentis are the worst thing that has ever happened to me." I grab my purse and walk to the door when Jason grabs me and slaps me hard across my face. He throws me on the floor and punches me hard in the stomach multiple times until I start coughing.
"Jas... please."
"TAKE IT BACK! YOU LOVE ME ARIA. ME. NOT THAT BASTARD TEACHER OF YOURS. I'M YOUR TRUE LOVE. HE WILL NEVER EVER LOVE YOU THE WAY HE LOVES ME."
He picks me up and throws me at the coffee table shattering the glass.
"Jas..."
"YOU CHEATED ON ME. HOW COULD YOU?! WHY WOULD YOU!" The police storm open the door and they pull Jason off me. I blink a few times and cough and then everything goes black.
The shooting as seen through Aria's mind while she's in a coma.
"You should listen to him Aria. I would hate to blame this whole thing on you. You just couldn't stand to see the man you loved with another so you lured him here and then you killed him right in the heart. And then so disgusted with yourself you shot yourself in the heart too. And I came too late to save either of you."
"You don't have to do this..."
"Don't have to do this? I have given Ezra everything I have. And you just waltz in and take it all away like it's nothing."
"Ezra and I have a past. It's like this is some new thing that's just happening. In fact I had him first."
"And you can't have him back." Laura points the gun right at my heart.
"Laura, think this out. Put the gun down. We will get you help."
"I don't need help I need you." Laura starts to cry and the gun starts shaking.
"Laura please. We can work this out, but we aren't working together. You deserve someone who can love you unconditionally. Someone who isn't in love with someone else." Laura pulls the trigger and Ezra shoves me away and the bullet hits him.
"Aria...Aria...Aria" I open my eyes and see my mom staring at my face.
"What..." My voice cracks. She touches my face. My whole was in pain, but all I wanted to do was see Ezra. "Where's Ezra?"
"Ezra is in a coma, but he's alive. The doctor said it looked positive. But you need to focus on yourself. Honey, how long has this been going on? How long has Jason been hurting you?"
"I don't even remember. I just remember the shooting and Ezra. Everything else is blurry."
"The doctor said you had a lot of trauma in the head. The police want to talk to you, but your dad is holding them off until you feel better."
"Thanks. I want to see Ezra."
"You need to heal first. Your head is damaged and your stomach can barely hold food down. You come first. When you can keep a meal down you can get up and see Ezra."
"Mom, he needs me."
"He needs an alive Aria. And you need your rest." Ella gets up leaving me by myself. I fall asleep and dream of a less difficult world where Ezra and I were happy together without all the complications.
There you go. Make sure to review. The next chapter revolves around Aria in the hospital and she gets to see Ezra!
