Ezra Fitz was the most liked teacher at Hollis He was also one of the youngest. Being only 26, he was still a hot topic for the younger students at Hollis, and his charm and his boyish smile didn't exactly help. He was a beautiful young man, with pitch-black short hair, deep ocean-blue eyes, and a beautiful, big smile. Although, Ezra Fitz was already married to his high school sweetheart (well, more like college sweetheart) Jackie, another teacher at Hollis. The couple also had a daughter, Stella Fitz, aged two. But, he was still liked because of his teaching, of course.
Ezra did have a secret. When he was still teaching at Rosewood High, and a few months into his teaching job at Hollis, he was seeing one of his students, Aria Montgomery. Despite the age difference, and the complication, he'd been sure she was the one. But things happened, things changed. The last he'd heard was that she'd moved to New York, with her boyfriend Jason DiLaurentis. But there was something more, something Ezra refused to say, even to himself. And he wasn't planning on doing it anytime soon.
"Daaada!" Stella cried out, tugging in his pants, to get his attention. Ezra came back to reality, and put away his book, to pick up his daughter, with a smile.
"Hey there baby." He pressed a kiss to her cheek, putting her down in his lap. Just like her father, she had pitch-black hair, with beautiful tiny curls, but a pair of big green eyes just like her mother.
With these big green eyes, she studied her father with a giant smile on her little lips. Suddenly, her mother popped into the livingroom, smiling smugly at the two.
"Well hello there." Jackie smiled softly at them, pressing a kiss to Ezra's lips, before stroking her daughter's cheek lovingly. "We should get going."
"Oh yeah, I was just..." Ezra bit on his lip, glancing down on the book.
"Lost in another world, once again." His wife giggled, scooping their daughter up.
"Yeah, sorta." He let out a soft laugh, as he quickly got up as well.
"I'll take her, don't worry." Jackie smiled at him. "You're running late already."
"Am I?" His eyes widden, as he glanced down at his watch. "I am!" He cried out, grabbing his book. "Bye baby." He pressed a kiss to his wife's lips, and kissed his daughter's forehead before practically sprinting out to the car, grabbing his bag on the way out. With other words, another normal morning in the Fitz's house.
He arrived to Hollis College one minute late, and sprinted to his classroom, trying not to die due lack of air.
"I'm sorry I'm late." He murmured, quickly taking his place by the desk. "Today, we'll just continue on the assigment I gave you last Thur-" His words faded, as he saw a familiar face a few rows down. He couldn't do anything but stare. Just like the first time he'd seen here from behind the desk, she was in her own world, scribbling or drew something down in her notebook, and he tried to keep the smirk off his face. At the same time, his heart was about to stop, and panic and anger shot through him. He had been hoping he would never have to see her ever again.
