the perfect mistake

Chapter 6: don't leave

ARIAS POV:
I drove as fast as I could to Ezra's apartment to finding him getting in his car after throwing his bags in the back seat. As he opened his drivers door I yelled "wait!" he turned and faced me. I took a deep swallow and walked near him. "Where are you going?" "Does it really matter?" "yes it does. I came to tell you I saw Maggie is back in town. I just need you to prepare for that." I said as I looked down "oh but Aria how will I get ready for what you're planning?" my face tensed up as a tear fell from my eye. "So why are you here aria?" "You can't leave." "I have too. What are you so afraid of. Why can't I leave?" "I don't know Ezra. I don't know what I was more afraid of either seeing you again today or never seeing you again." He smiled and gripped my hand "you know I wish I could turn back the clock and take back everything." "I know. I'm sorry. Just please don't leave." "But your world would be so much easier without me in it." "Yeah you're right... But it wouldn't be my world without you in it. I need to go I have dinner plans with Hanna. Just please." I walked back to my car in hopes he'd stay around. I drove to the grill to meet Hanna. "Where have you been? Where'd you go?" "I had some wedding details I needed to smooth out." "Oh okay. Let's call the waiter and eat." She said I nodded in agreement. all I could think about was Ezra leaving me. But there's no us left so I just need to move on. Ezra texted me asking if we can meet later he needed to speak with me. I just didn't respond and went on with my meal and kept talking about our lives and how happy we both were. Hannah didn't always seem so convinced it's okay I'm finally convinced.

EZRAS POV:
I waited for Aria to reply all night. She didn't answer. She didn't actually care. nor did I. just if she doesn't reply by 11 tomorrow I will be leaving.

ARIAS POV:
I woke up at 10:52 and debated weather or not to text Ezra...
