After The Book - Ezria FanFiction (Finished)

A Long Way From Home

Aria's pov

     So today was horrible. I threw up three times at school and Spencer, Hanna, and Emily were all nagging me by asking what's wrong every five seconds. I didn't tell them. I'm scared their going to hate me. Spencer was mad at me for dating Ezra, I can only imagine what she would think if she knew I got knocked up by him.

     But I want Ezra to be the first to know. I thought about it a lot and decided I should before he figures it out himself. I just don't know when or how.

     I've been thinking all through my last hour of class about how I'm going to tell him and when. Since he stays after school on Tuesdays (Which is today) I'll tell him after class, but I still don't know how. I might as well just wing it.

     It's 2:28 and school gets out at 2:30. I'm hardly breathing. I'm so scared right now. I honestly have no clue what his reaction will be. I don't know if he'll comfort me, throw a book, run away, or all of the above. All I know is that I'm scared. And to make it all worse: the bell rings.

     I begin walking out of the class and walk to my locker when suddenly all 3 girls stop me.

"Hey. You wanna go to my place with the girls?" It was Spencer.

"Were all going." Said Emily.

"Sorry, my mom wants me home right after school. She said she had to talk to me about... something." I couldn't think of what to say quick enough and they cought on.

"You don't have to lie to us. We understand if you don't want to come tonight." Spencer said.

"Yes it's not a big deal" said Hanna said.

"No, my mom really does need me home." I said more convincing.

"Okay. Well, I guess we'll see you later." Said Spencer confused.

"Um yea. Okay. Bye." I said as they began to walk away and I pretended to move around the books in my locer until almost everyone in the school left.

      It was time to do the one thing I've been dreading. I closed my locker and walked to Ezra's classroom door. I don't think I'm breathing. Like at all.

     Once I calmed down, I took a deep breath and walked in.
"A--Aria?"

Ezra's pov

      I couldn't believe who was
standing right in front of me. It was her. The one I loved. The one I love.

"Hi. Um I-I need to tell you something." She said uneasy, water rushing to her eyes. I can tell it wasn't something small. All the sudden she started crying.

" Aria, what's going on?" I said worried, standing from my seat so I could be face to face with her.

      Even though she had her head down with her hands on her face, I could still see the pain in her eyes.

      Whatever it was, it was killing her inside. All I want to do now is get it out of her. I don't like seeing her like this: In pain.

"Tell me what's going on." I say concerned.

"I--I'm" She started shakely. "I can't do this." She said speeding  twards the door. I gently grab her arm.

"Aria you can tell me. You know that."

"I know, but I-I just cant tell you this. It's too hard." She said tears running down her face.

     And with that, she ran down the hallway. I couldn't catch her fast enough.

Aria's Pov.

     I got in my car and was crying the hardest I had in years. I needed to leave. I needed to get away from this town.

     I began to start the car and exited the parking lot. I don't know where I'm going, I just know I need to get out of Rosewood.

¤¤¤¤

     It's now 8:45. I just got to a hotel. It's decent. I already payed to stay here 3 days. I think that's a good amount of time to stay by myself for a while. And if not, I still have money to stay longer.

      I decide to go to bed early tonight.
I don't want to feel the way I feel right now. I feel so many things in this one moment. I feel guilty, sad, upset, miserable, sick. I feel horrible for what just happened. Leaving Ezra like that. Why did I do that.

Ezra's pov -- 3 days later

     Aria hasn't been at school in two days. I'm starting to get worried. I don't know if she's actually sick or if she's avoiding me. I want to make her feel better either way. But I know I can't. She doesn't love me anymore. She thinks I used her.

Man I hate that book.

    I was pulled out of my thoughts by the bell rining. As the kids filed in, once again, Aria was gone.

    I decided to call her for the billionth time. I have called her about 10 times a day. I need to know what she was trying to tell me. I know it's stupid but, I love her, and I want her safe and happy.

No answer.

    I thought about it and knowing it's a bad idea, I called Byron. Maybe he would know.

     I excused myself from the
classroom and went into the hall.

"Hello. Ezra?" Said a deep, questioning voice.

"Hi Byron. Um, have you seen Aria latley? She hasn't been at school."

"No. I-I thought she was staying with you for a while." He had a worried tone in his voice.

"Were not together anymore." An ockward silence engulfed the phone. "But I'm still worried. Do you have any clue where she could be?" I said trying to get to the point.

"No, but maybe I should call her." He said supprisingly calm.

"Okay. Text me if you hear from her. Please?"

"Of course Ezra. I will. Talk to you later."

" Okay. Bye." I said soothingly but I'm really freaking out right now. No one knows where she is. I don't know what to do anymore.

Aria's pov

Buzz. Buzz.

    My dad was calling me. I haven't talked to anyone since I got here.

     I don't know whether or not I
should answer it. If I answer it, I could be persuaded to come back, but if I dont, I could never want to come back.

     I grabbed my phone and before I knew it, I heard my dad's voice.

"ARIA!? Aria hunny where are you?" He sounded so worried.

     I just wanted him to be right next
to me so I could hug him and tell him how sorry I am for running away and getting knocked up.

"Aria, are you there?"

"Dad. Yea, yea I'm here." I said smiling through my teeth.

"Aria were in God's name are you!" He sounded upset. My smile quickly turned into a frown.

"Dad don't worry. I'm perfectly fi--" I was cut off.

"Aria if you don't come home by tonight, I'm calling the police to come and get you themselves." He said strictly. I began to cry.
