Love Like Woe- The Ready Set

Aria has been pushing and pulling on me for months. When she comes over, I never know what's going to happen. Ever since the Ian thing and the Jackie thing she's been so bipolar. But who can blame her? She vulnerable and doesn't know how she feels so I try not to push her. I just let her mislead me because I love her so damn much.

After the Jackie thing she wouldn't talk to me at all. She was pissed and I don't blame her. I hurt her and lied. I didn't tell her Jackie worked at Hollis and I should have. The truth is, I didn't know until she did. I hoped we could get through this. Then the Ian thing happened and she came running to me. I held her and let her cry. After that she wouldn't talk to me at all. I tired to talk to her after classes, but she rushed out before I could even utter one word. Every once in a while she would come to me and cry, but other than that she would push me away. She can take up all my time because she is the only one that can make a storm cloud break in my world. I needed to be the sun for her right now.

One day after class I asked her to stay behind. She reluctantly agreed.

"Are we over?" I asked.

"I don't know..." she whispered. After that she just left. Damn, this girl has got a love like woe. She kept bringing me in then kicking me out again. I mean, her and I are undeniable, but I'm finding out our love is unreliable. There needs to be a way for those lips to speak my name. I've got the intuition to think that there's more than just sadness. She's my sweet pill that I swallow to counter my addiction to her. I love her, but her love like woe sometimes makes it hard.

I went home in a melancholy state of mind. I missed her horridly. I wanted to believe that we were what was best for each other, but if I was just a roadblock in her way? I walked into my apartment and dropped my briefcase on the couch. I loosened my tie as I walked over to the coffee maker and poured myself a mug. This whole Aria thing was starting to take its toll on me. I decided a shower was exactly what I needed.

When I got out of the bathroom I heard a loud beeping coming from my briefcase. When I pulled out my phone I saw three missed calls from Aria and a text saying she was coming over. It was sent 10 minutes ago which meant I had 5 minutes to get myself together.

I scrambled around my small apartment pulling things on and brushing my teeth. I heard the doorbell ring and even though I was just in my sweats I answered the door anyway. I saw Aria in a state of despair. Her face was clean because of a lack of makeup, but her cheeks were streaked with tears. She fell into my arms and I held her close. I pulled her inside and closed the door as I led her to my couch. She was mumbling some nonsense about her crazy mixed up life, but I couldn't make it out. Once we were finally settled I tried to calm her down.

"Aria, it's going to be okay. You're not alone; you've got your friends….but you've also got me. Anytime, anywhere, I'll be there for you."

Finally she said, "Ezra, I am so sorry. I know I've put you through hell the past few weeks. I've been killing you slowly. I just want you to know it ends now. I love you. I want to be with you. You may not want to be with me after I tell you what I need to say..."

She was starting to scare me. "Aria! I will love you forever, no matter what. What do you need to tell me?"

She took a deep breath and said, "I'm... I'm pregnant..."

I saw a tear streak down her red face as she prepared to ball her eyes out.

"B-But when? How?"

"Three weeks ago? Right before the Ian thing?" Confusion turned to clarity as I remembered every moment of that blissful night. I took her hands in mine and told her no matter what happened that I would be there for her. Nothing would make me abandon her. "That's why I've been so bipolar lately. It's the pregnancy hormones. I've been struggling with telling you for a while. It's why I've bringing you in and then kicking you out again. I was afraid…" I could she that she was sorry for what she did, and she was also afraid that I would leave her.

"Aria! You can take up all my time because you're the only one for me. You're a pretty little windstorm out on the boulevard, something like a sunset, or you're a shooting star. If I can't kiss you in the rain... Right now you're driving me insane because your lips aren't speaking my name."

She smiled and pulled me in for a kiss. Right before our lips touched she whispered, "I love you... Ezra..."

Our lips met for the second we've been waiting for, for weeks. When we pulled apart I assured her the she wouldn't go through this alone. I knew she had a love like woe, and I was in it for the ride.

A/N: Okay, who liked that one-shot! I know I did!
