Echoed Corridors

Easy Breathing

No matter what happens I always seem to be dragged back to those High School days.

I still hadn't told Liam, and of course Ezra knew this perfectly well. I just couldn't get those words out, I didn't even know what those words that I so desperately had to say were. I wanted to tell him because I knew how much worse this would be over a long period of time but I just didn't know how.

I love Ezra but I cannot romanticise what we had. We are two fools. Foolish minds and hearts, wrecking the ones around us. I should have been smarter than this to think that something such as an affair was something deemed acceptable. I should have not let myself create such a mess of everything I had.

I walked to his apartment and that's when it hit me that nothing had changed. After all this years we were still hiding from the outside world and I tried to think about if this is what I truly wanted? He was my High School English teacher. I knock three times and wait for an answer, I don't even have a key to his goddamn apartment. If anyone saw us together though now we could say it's about the book, we had a valid excuse this time.
If anyone saw us we could say it's because we're writing the story of him and his missing girlfriend. I'm writing their love story whilst sleeping with the author.

"Hey, come on in." He says and I feel so bad that just a simple word out of his mouth can cause me to fall right into his hands. I am so weak when it comes to him most likely because all I want is for the ending to be just the two of us.

His new apartment is not easy to get used to and maybe that is just a reflection for the both of us.

"Can I get you a drink?" He asks already locating himself to grab two glasses.
"Yeah, make it something strong." I quickly stated as Ezra was walking to get juice.
"Your wish is my command."

I walked around his apartment trying to figure out what it was about him that I was so attracted to. There were many features I know, his charming looks, caring personality, how much he values me as a person but I don't understand what was causing me to be kept here. I knew it was him who I wanted but I just didn't understand why.

"Here you go." He passed me over a glass of wine, his eyes were lit up and I couldn't help but smile as I took a small sip. This was so wrong yet felt so right. Nothing in these past years had felt as good as Ezra had.
"We're crazy aren't we?" I asked and quickly reached for his hands that were twice the size of mine. The sense of security I felt in him quickly came rushing back and once again I felt happy being with him even if I wasn't meant to be.
"We've always been crazy Aria, we started fools in love and that's how we'll end."
