Ezra's POV

It has been almost two weeks since I woke up from my accident. This morning my doctor delivered the good news that I can leave the hospital sometime today. I was beyond thrilled when I got this news. These last two weeks have been the longest of my entire life. I could never leave my hospital room or eat anything decent for that mater. I think the only thing that has kept me sane is Aria's loving presence. The only time she isn't with me in this dreadful room is when she goes to Berkley for her classes. At first she refused to go to any of her classes, but I reminded her how important it is for her to do well in college. Nevertheless, I miss Aria like crazy when ever she leaves. She is the only thing that keeps my grey hospital room bright enough to live in. Aria interrupts my thoughts when she enters my hospital room.

" Hey babe." Aria says as she kisses my cheek.

" Hey, I've missed you." I say to her.

" I've missed you too. Are you excited to sleep in your own bed again?" Aria asks.

" I would be more excited if you were sleeping in it with me." I say causing Aria to blush.

" I know the doctors say that it's okay for you go home, but you still seem so sore and beat up. I hate the idea of you being alone with nobody to take care of you. Can I move in with you until you're fully recovered?" Aria asks me.

" I'm not sure if that's a good idea Aria. You've already done so much for me, and I wouldn't want to burden you with my problems." I confess.

" Ezra I love you, don't ever think that you are a burden." Aria tells me sweetly.

" I love you too." I say before kissing her.

" So is that a yes? Aria asks.

" I can't say no to you!" I tell Aria before we start another heated make-out session.

Later that Day

The moment has finally arrived, I'm being discharged from the hospital! Hardy and Jackie are giving me a ride back to my apartment because Aria has an evening class. So far, the entire drive home has consisted of my best friend and ex-girlfriend flirting with each other. Even though I'm happy that I've made amends with both of them, seeing them together is something that I will never get use to. When we finally arive at my appartment I hear soft romantic music coming from inside. I shoot Hardy a confused look.

" You're welcome." Hardy says before he dashes off with Jackie.

I open the door to Aria a holding roses and wearing a stunning red dress.

" Welcome home honey." She says seductively.

" Aria? I though you had a class!" I say surprised.

" I wanted to surprise you." She explains.

" It definitely worked! What smells so good?" I ask Aria.

" I'm cooking your favorite dish, enhanced macaroni and cheese!" Aria says grinning.

" So you're cooking fettuccine but you don't want me to get my hopes up." I conclude.

" You know me so well." Aria says as the sits down with me on the couch.

" My apartment look cleaner now than it was when I left it." I observe.

" I had the chance to do some cleaning while you were in the hospital." Aria explains.

" Aria you really didn't have to do all of this." I tell her.

" I wanted to." Aria says as she wraps her arms around me lovingly.

" You're so sweet." I tell her as we begin to kiss.

Our kiss is interrupted when the kitchen timer goes off.

" Do you need any help?" I ask Aria as she gets off of the couch.

" I've got it babe, just relax." She insists.

Soon Aria comes back to the couch with two steaming hot plates of her "enhanced macaroni and cheese."

" This is delicious." I say as I take my first bite.

" Do you remember the first time you cooked for me?" Aria asks giggling.

" How could I forget? I burnt the food and set the fire alarm off. That probably gave you a great first impression of me." I say sarcastically.

" It did actually. Cooking definetly isn't your thing, but I thought it was so sweet that you tried. You were the first boy that ever tried to make me dinner." Aria tells me.

" I don't believe you." I tease.

" Believe it and be happy that you didn't give me food poisoning." Aria jokes.

Our conversation is interrupted when " Happiness" by The Fray comes on over the radio.

" I love this song." Aria tells me.

" Can I have this dance?" I ask as I offer Aria my hand.

" Of course you may." Aria says as she stands up.

I put my hands on her hips, while she reaches up to wrap her arms around my shoulders. Aria rests her head against my chest as we waltz around my living room together.

" I love you so much, thank you for everything." I tell Aria when the song ends.

" You're welcome." Aria says as I lift her up to carry her to my bed.

Aria's POV

My romantic evening with Ezra has been amazing. After our slow dance in the living room things heated up very quickly. After making love for nearly two hours, we both decided to go to sleep. The only problem is that I can't sleep. My guilt has nearly eaten me alive! Hardy and I decided against telling Ezra about our kiss, even though I wish that I had the courage to tell him the truth. I'm just so afraid that he will he will hate me. I remember how hurt Ezra seemed when he saw me kissing Hardy, I don't want to put him through that pain again. I am also worried that Ezra will think that the strong feelings I have for him aren't there. Ezra's soft breathing fills his quiet bedroom, his chest moves up and down every time he takes a breath. Ezra looks so content and at peace, he has no idea what an idiot his girlfriend is. Before I can stop myself I burst into tears, Ezra's crystal blue eyes immediately jolt open when he hears my whimpering.

" Honey, what's wrong." Ezra asks concerned.

" N-nothing." I mumble through my tears.

" Did you have a nightmare?" He asks as he takes me in his comforting arms.

I shake my head sadly.

" Did I do something to hurt or upset you?" Ezra asks me worriedly.

" You couldn't if you tried." I tell him.

" Please tell me what's bothering you so I can fix it." Ezra begs.

"It's nothing, please stop." I say to him.

" Stop what?" He asks confused.

" Stop being so nice to me all the time!" I snap.

" I'm sorry. You just seem so upset, and it's breaking my heart." Ezra tells me gently.

" It's not the first time." I say sadly.

" That you've been upset?" Ezra asks concerned.

" No, that I've broken your heart!" I say I through my tears.

" You've never broken my heart! What are you talking about?" Ezra asks confused.

" I can't tell you." I say apologetically.

" Why not?" Ezra presses.

" Because you will hate me, and I can't let you slip away from me." I explain.

" I could never hate you Aria. Whatever it is, you can tell me." Ezra says gently.

" It's my fault you were in the accident! You could have been killed because of me." I say as I sob hysterically.

" Aria it wasn't your fault! That's absolutely ridiculous!" Ezra tells me.

The fact that he can't see my flaws makes me cry harder.

" Sh-sh. It's okay, everything's going to be okay." He says attempting to soothe me.

" It's not okay Ezra! You've been the perfect boyfriend and have stuck with me through all of my baggage! I really don't deserve you." I explain sadly.

" Don't say that Aria, you're the most amazing girlfriend in the world!" Ezra tells me.

" I'm not your girlfriend anymore Ezra!" I say sadly.

" Are you breaking up with me?" Ezra asks devastated.

" No, you broke up with me!" I say upset.

" What? No I didn't! Why would I break up with you?" Ezra asks completely confused.

" Because I kissed Hardy at the party! You saw us and left, that's when you were hit by the drunk driver!" I shout.

The same look that I saw on Ezra's face at the party appears as tears begin to roll down his cheeks.

So Aria finally tells Ezra the truth! How do you think he is going to react? I hope you enjoyed some of the fluff in this chapter, even though drama followed it. Please review it would mean the world for me. Thanks for reading!
