"Ezra?" Aria said quietly, not bothering to glance over her shoulder at him. She was far too comfortable in his arms, body's stuck together, their legs tangled together. He ran his fingertips up and down her arm as she laid on her side, leaning against his chest. It was soothing, a peaceful way to end their passionate night of love making.
Ezra was half asleep, but he managed to mumble out a quick "Hmm?"
"You have to promise me too..."
"Promise you what?" He raised a curious brow, leaning down to press kisses along her neck and shoulder, sending shivers all through Aria's body.
"Promise that you'll never leave me either."
With a nod of his head, Ezra pulled back a fraction, brushing her hair away from her face. "I'm not going anywhere, Aria. I promise you."
"When we start a family, I think that we should buy a bigger home." Her tone was teasingly but both of them knew it was a necessity. The apartment only just fitted two of them, it wouldn't fit any more people inside of it. "With a big garden."
"We should. We can have a huge back yard for all of them to run around in."
"All of them?"
"What? We're just having the one?" Ezra acted offended, settling back down in his previous position.
"Two, at least two."
"A boy, and a girl."
"I think that sounds fair. Oh, and we have to have a dog too."
And even though they both wanted to sleep, they spent the next two and a half hours of the night talking about their future, together.

The knocking of the door awoke Aria, the furious banging causing her to make the decision to untangle herself from Ezra's sleeping limbs, and pull on one of Ezra's long shirts, glad that they hadn't removed her bra the previous night.
That's when Aria stopped, and realised that she couldn't answer the door. If it was someone that only Ezra knew, then they were at a great risk of being caught. But, Ezra looked so peaceful sleeping. Aria really didn't want to wake up him.
"Ezra?" She whispered, crawling back onto the bed to try and wake him up. He just let out a groan, trying to turn away from wherever the noise was coming from. "Ezra, someone's at the door." He came to his senses then, rubbing his eyes for a minute before sitting up, the constant knocking on the door beginning giving him a headache.
"Just give me a minute!" Ezra yelled, dragging Aria onto his lap. "Good morning, beautiful."
She let out a giggle, pressing continuous lazy kisses to his lips between her words.
"You should get that, it's annoying." He groaned loudly, crashing his lips forcefully to hers. Aria allowed herself to get carried away, dragging Ezra down on top of her, before the knocking began again. "Oh for fucks sake."
Ezra speedily pulled on his pyjama bottoms, and jogged towards the door whilst Aria grabbed her phone and locked herself in the bathroom.
He pulled open the door, his brows furrowing as he saw no one stood there, only a crisp white envelope laid on the floor. After glancing down the hallway to see no one, Ezra picked up the letter, and quickly moved back into the apartment.
"False alarm, Aria." Ezra called out, pulling off the seal of the envelope to pull it out. He paused as Aria walked slowly out the bathroom, her face pale. "Is everything okay?" Ezra set down the envelope, holding his hands out to Aria.
"I've just gotten a text, from Wesley." Aria rushed out her words, holding out her phone for Ezra to take. "Why is Wesley texting me?"
"Wesley's dead."
"Wow, why didn't I think of that?" Aria said sarcastically, reading the text aloud. "Need to see you, Rosewood Cemetery, 11pm." Aria took a deep breath, before continuing."Don't tell Ezra." He took the phone from Aria, the caller ID reading Wesley's name.
"It's probably just a prank, someone has Wesley's phone." Aria let out a scoff at Ezra's words, catching a glimpse of the white envelope.
"Who was at the door?"
"No one, just a letter." She raised an eyebrow, walking straight past him to pick it up, her eyes scanning over the sheet of paper. "It's probably just a bill."
"Dear Ezra.
I know I'm probably the last person that you want to hear from right now, but I just thought you should know I'm perfectly okay.
Wes." She let out a groan, handing Ezra the letter before heading towards the kitchen.
"What're you doing?"
"I need coffee, then we're calling 911."
"And tell them what? My girlfriend, who by the way is my student, woke me up the morning after we had sex and there was a letter on the doorstep? I think I'll be arrested." Ezra rolled his eyes, both knowing that his words were true.
"Then what're we supposed to do? Someone's messing around with us."
"We act natural." He said, tearing up the letter and throwing it in the bin. "It's probably just one of Wesley's friends." As much as Aria wanted to argue, she just nodded. Aria's gut feeling was telling her that something wasn't right, but arguing with Ezra at seven AM wasn't the way to go about it. She instead abandoned the coffee, trudging up towards the bed. She pulled away the covers, sliding onto her side of the bed.
"Hurry up then." Aria mumbled, looking over her shoulder at him.
Ezra practically ran in the direction of the bed, stopping as Aria began to speak again. "And lose the bottoms, Mr Fitz."
"You're so immature sometimes." Ezra shook his head in amusement, disposing the pyjama bottoms and climbing back into his bed, only for his phone to ring.
"Leave it, sleep." With that Aria was out like a light, and Ezra slipped his arms around her waist, glancing over his shoulder at the ringing phone on the side. The caller ID was clearly written in big letters on the screen of his IPhone.
Wesley.
But Ezra knew that answering the phone could ruin things again for them, he didn't want to believe what his head was telling him.
Wesley was alive, he had to be. It all made sense now.
No, Ezra wasn't going to think like that. Unravelled a hand to turn his phone onto silent, settling into the bed with his girlfriend.
