ARIA'S POV
Next day, new therapies, new smileys, new talking sessions, new 'forced smiles'. Day in, day out. The only good thing about this day was that I woke up in Ezra's arms. I felt safe in his arms, and the scent of him along with his steady heartbeat made me forget about everything I had to go through today. Ezra and Natalia really thought I was getting better, they really thought I was able to do this. But I've told them so many times before, this world is just not the place for me.
Maybe Ezra and Natalia were at least a little right, at some moments I was feeling less sad. At some moments I felt good. Like this exact moment, curled up in Ezra's arms, safe from whatever the day was gonna throw at me, like a knight in his shield. And yes, I was improving. I didn't try to kill myself every single second I was alone, I didn't try to cut my wrists or swallow too much pills everytime something went wrong. I guess that's what this is all for, to keep me alive. I was overthinking everything when I suddenly felt a pair of lips move against my head and a small kiss press against my cheek.
"Goodmorning Miss Montgomery" I heard Ezra wishper in his husky morning voice before he pressed my body against his and wrapped his arm around my waist.
"Goodmorning Mr. Fitz" I mumbled before my eyes shot open in horror and I lifted my upper body from the bed before I let a lout gasp. "Oh my god Ezra, don't you have to be at school? They're gonna fire you! All because of me!" I panicked but Ezra took my shoulders in his hands.
"Aria, calm down, I'm free for the week, I took care of it!" Ezra said before I let a loud sigh.
"God, I'm so complicated" I mumbled before I dropped myself down on his bed again and nuzzled my head in one of the pillows.
"Aria, stop saying that. You are not. The only one who's complicated is Taylor Swift with all her relationships and those crazy man" He chuckled. I couldn't laugh though.
"Soon enough Jackie will be just as crazy as them" I spoke. Or Noel. I was starting to get afraid for him though, I hadn't seen him for a while now and the fact that he hadn't even tried to call scared me the most.
"Don't worry about her, she won't come back. She has probably found someone better by this time" Ezra said and stood up from his bed. "I'm gonna make breakfast, and you're gonna do your homework" Ezra commanded
"But I don't have any hom-"
"Your smiley"
"Oh, right.." I spoke before I grabbed my marker and drew a smiley on my arm. I didn't know if he had to be happy or sad, I didn't even know if I was happy or sad. When Ezra came back with a plate of food I still hadn't decided what smiley I would draw, neither if I would eat my breakfast or not.
"I made you a sandwich" Ezra spoke and handed me the plate. "I know you're gonna say you don't want to eat but I'm gonna sit here and watch you untill you've swallowed the last piece" He said and sat down next to me on his two size bed. I just looked at him, and he looked back at me. After a while of doubting and thinking I made up my mind. Fuck it, why not try to eat?
The first few bites were hard to swallow. Every time I took a little bite I thought about Noel and how I would get punished for this, but then again, it wasn't Noel sitting next to me, it was Ezra. And Ezra loves me. Although he knew I wasn't able to love him back, he knew I didn't even love myself, he still loved me. I don't even know what love is. I haven't felt it in a really long time, but whatever Ezra was doing with my feelings surely helped to gain it back. After a half a sandwich later I was really full, so I shove the plate away and looked back at the smiley on my arm."I'm really full" I admitted and Ezra nodded.
"I understand, you tried your best Aria, you're improving"
EZRA'S POV
I gathered Aria's and mine plate together and walked to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Just when I was about to wash the second and last dish, I heard a soft bang coming from my bedroom and then Aria who was loudly crying now. I dropped the plate and quickly ran back to my bedroom where I saw Aria crying, with her head burried in her hands. There was another big difference, the smiley Aria hadn't finished had gotten a mouth now. A really, really sad one. I was about to walk towards Aria when I saw. what had caused the bang. It was her phone that was laying on the floor now, unlocked. I picked it up and saw she had a text from Nelly.
To: Aria
From: NellyHey Aria,
I have no idea where you are, and what happened. But I want you to know I'm always here for you, even if you don't need me. That's the reason why I'm texting you by the way. Noel is in jail. I indicted Noel for his crimes, he isn't gonna get away with this. The court is in 3 days, I hope you can be there.
I'm gonna fight this, and you'll get a divorce. I love you Aria.
