I walked around the grave yard trying to get cell reception.

"Crap." I thought out loud when my phone flashed me a sign saying I only had 20% left.

I paced back and forth trying and trying to get reception, but nothing.

I sighed and sat down in the damp grass.

I looked at my phone which had 16% left.

It was 4:36 in the morning, I may just have to wait till later in the morning.

I stood up and walked around the small graveyard looking for a place to exit so I could find my car, but I couldn't see an exit.

My thoughts drifted over to Alison. What had gone wrong, why was she -A? We were like her dolls, we did everything she asked. She made us a different person. But now, I've changed, I'm me again, maybe different than the old me, but I feel like myself again for once. And Alison won't change me again, I just won't let it happen, I'm sick of being the puppet.

I stood up determined to find and exit, I checked my phone 5:25 in the morning.

I looked around when something caught the corner of my eye. A gate.

I smiled in relief and ran towards the gate.

I ran through the gate and searched for my car. It took me a minute or two to find my car, but then I hopped in and drove off.

When I got to Ezra's I ran up the stairs towards apartment B3.

I looked like crap, but I didn't care, I needed to see Ezra.

I knocked on the door two times before an answer.

Ezra's face lit up and he smiled and pulled me in for a hug.

"Are you okay?" He said in a comforting voice as he stroked my hair.

"I'm fine, I just need you to keep holding me here." I said as my voice cracked.

He kissed the top of my head held me tighter.

I felt hot tears steam down my face. Was this the end of -A? No. No, this was just the beginning. I needed to talk to Ali.

I felt Ezra pull back.

"What happened?" Ezra said, his tone was scared.

"I know who -A is. She told me to meet up with follow the instructions she gave me, and she said she was taking me to her." I said as I felt a tear roll down my cheek.

Ezra wiped my tear away with his thumb and caressed my cheek, " I'm sorry," he said," I should have known something was up when you left."

"Ezra don't. Don't act like this is your fault, because it's not." I say as more tears stream down my face, " it's not your fault."

He nodded and pulled me in for another hug.

"I'm still sorry, I love you Aria." Ezra said still hugging me.

"I love you too." I say before pulling back and placing a soft kiss on his lips.

"Let's get you cleaned up." Ezra said examining me.

"Okay, but let me call my friends first. I bet they are worried sick." I said grabbing my phone and dialing Hanna's number.
