Remember Ezria

Chapter Twelve

"Aria? What are you doing here? I thought this was Ezra's apartment. I guess I have the wrong one."
"Actually, this is his apartment."
"What are you doing here?"
"Do you want me to come in?"
As soon as Simone walked in, Ezra's eyes widened.
"Simone, hi. What are you doing here?"
"Since you couldn't go out, I thought I'd come here, but it looks like you're pretty busy." She looked at the bed and me and Ezra looked at each other.
"Can one of you explain because I'm lost."
"Alright." I started to talk and I told her everything that was going on between us and Ezra held my hand the whole time.
"And that's pretty much it. I love him so much. Even if we have to keep it a secret."
"And you're still here teacher?"
"Yes, but not for long. My last day at Rosewood is Friday; I love Aria. I fell in love with her the second I saw her."
Ezra looked at me in the eyes and kissed my cheek.
"It all makes sense. That's why you got jealous at the dance!"
"Simone, I know this is alot to ask but can you-"
"Yeah sure. I will. I'm in town for a couple of days. I should come back."
"It was nice seeing you both. Bye."
I closed the door behind her and looked at Ezra.
"I'm sorry what was I suppose to say?"
"Simone won't tell anyone. She wouldn't do that to me."
"Okay, if you trust her so do I."
"I think it's your turn to pick. I will make the popcorn."
While I was in the kitchen I got a message.

I better watch out where I'm going next time.
-Kisses A

I looked at Ezra and put down my phone. I got the popcorn out of the microwave and I sat down. It was kind of silent the whole movie; until Ezra spoke up.
"So, who was that. That texted you in the kitchen. You look scared. Is it -A?"
"A stopped messing with us a long time ago. Come on let's watch the movie."
I did not want him to know -A was back in our lives. Especially after all that's happened.
"Tomorrow's Monday. Do you need me to take you home?"
"Well, I don't have my car..."
He let out a small laugh and smiled at me and drove me home.
"Aria? Where were you the past two days? I've been so worried about you."
"Hanna really needed me. I'm sorry I didn't call."
"Call next time. I was about to call the police."
"It won't happen again I'm fine."
I went up to my room before he could say something again.
