the perfect mistake

Chapter 21: youre the one

Previously left off where Ezra was thrown out Aria hears the pastor speak and realizes that it's about Ezra not Andrew and that she needs to finally make a decision.

ARIAS POV:

"I'm sorry I can't do this. I'm not in love with you." "what Aria I'm confused?" he said. I saw everyone stare at me. I looked to see Hanna smiling suddenly and I saw my mom smiling while my dad was confused. I let go of andrews hands, ripped off my vale and looked out in the audience. "I'm sorry. Just I want to be happy and want my marriage to last but it's only going to last if it with the person who owns my heart. I have to go. I'm sorry everyone." As I ran down the stairs I pulled my dress up and ran out and found Ezra getting in a taxi I jumped in one behind him and followed him to his apartment. It began to rain. I got out and ran after him. I saw a women walk towards him and kiss him. he pushed her away. "Stop. I don't want you. I don't want anyone else. I just want Aria and she's gone forever. Why are you here Jackie leave!?" "I'm here because I thought since she got married you needed company. Not from you!" He shouted I saw Jackie get in her car and sped off. Hopefully for good. "Ezra!?" I shouted in the rain as he was on the opposite side of the parking lot. He turned. I walked closer to the middle of the parking lot hoping he'd meet me half way. He didn't move. I yelled "I said we'd never go back only forward together. You're the one you always have been. You still believe that two people that are meant for eachother will find their way back to each other, right no matter what? you didn't lose me. you can't. You own my heart." "you really do love me Aria." "Ezra I never stopped. I'm sorry." "How'd you know I meant what I said?" He said as he took steps towards the middle. The rain began to pour. "I just knew you still loved me because no one has ever looked at me like the way you did. And I realized you loved me when you tried stopping this today. not once but twice. And I knew I still loved you because truth is I went to that roof because I thought you were going to kill yourself. and jumping off that bridge was because I knew I couldn't live or breathe without you." I ran towards him carrying my dress as I kicked my shoes off. he held out his arms. "You came back. I thought I'd lost you." He said as I jumped in his arms. He held me as tightly as possible with my head in his neck while he lifted me in the air. "You'll never lose me Ezra." I said as he held the back of my neck and our lips crashed into each-others. It was cold outside but I didn't notice it. Our lips moved in sync. he slipped his tongue in my mouth. I bit his lip pulling away for air. he slowly set me on the ground still kissing me. he let go and whispered "I'll never stop fighting for you." he let go of my neck and chin and grabbed my waist, pulled me close, looked in my eyes, looked at my lips while biting his, looked back at my eyes, grabbed my face gently like he once did then slowly leaned in and kissed me in the rain. he pulled away and looked me in the eyes I wish I knew what he was thinking. Then there it was that boyish smile again. that charm. but the simple in his smile was a hook in my heart and he reeled me in.

EZRAS POV:
I pulled away and looked her in the eyes and realized when you love someone you fight for them no matter what the odds are. I realized I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against peace, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be. Ever since I've met her I don't think I could live without her. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't stay away from her. I want her in my arms every night. Her smile. She was worth every single sacrifice I've made. I didn't know something so perfect could exist then I met her. She's all I ever wanted and more and she chose me. She chose me. I'm the luckiest guy in the world and I honestly don't know what would have happened to me after tonight if she would have moved away. but when I look at her I look in her eyes her beautiful hazel angel like eyes I finally find a place to rest.

ARIAS POV:
He stared at me for a long while smiling. I didn't know if he was crying or if his eyes were watering because there was so much rain but I felt it in my heart that this was meant to be. he picked me up bridal style. "Let's get you out of this rain." he ran me up the stairs and I realized I didn't want anyone as much as I've ever wanted him. I whispered in his ear and I could hear the light moans the whole way up the stairs. I sucked on his ear and kissed his neck. he unlocked the door and picked me up by my hips till my legs were wrapped around the front of his body and our lips were moving in sync. His tongue entered my mouth he shut and locked door behind him not taking his eyes off of me. I was cold and wet but his warm body was all I needed. I looked around as he held me against the wall kissing my neck as I let out light moans. I pictured Jackie on that couch and then I remembered that bed. it was sacred and only I've ever been there. He turned and started walking towards the bed. he set me down gently sit kissing me. I edged my closer to the headboard as I set up and Ezra crawled on top of me and continued kissing my neck. he whispered in between kisses. "Are you sure." I nodded. That natural boyish smile that I loved came back across his face. he slowly took my shirt off. I slowly kissed his neck as he removed his as well. It was the perfect night.
