Despite feeling worse the next day, I went to school anyway. Of course, Ezra worried, but I managed to convince him.
"Are you sure you're okay?" he asked when I woke up.
"I'm fine, Ezra. I promise," I kissed him before he left.
"Okay. Let me know if you start to feel bad, okay?"
"Okay," he left and I finished getting ready and drove to school. As soon as I walked in, I was bombarded with questions and looks. As the girls closed in around me, I began to feel dizzy, "Guys, can you step back a bit?" I asked. They all did.
"Aria you look terrible," Spencer said, looking concerned. Hanna hit her in the side, "Spencer!" she scolded.
"She's right though, Han. I feel worse than I look," I said.
"Any idea what's wrong?" Emily asked.
"No, but I'm sure either you guys or Ezra will take me to find out," I said, laughing a little.
"That's right," Hanna said, grabbing my arm, "We're taking you to the doctor, now,"
"No, Han, I didn't mean literally!" I said, trying to resist.
"Yeah, well we're going," Spencer said pushing me along. I looked to Emily, "I'm with them on this one, Aria,"
"Fine," I said, going along reluctantly.

I've been on edge since going to the doctor. It's been a week, and I still feel like crap. Today's the day I go for a follow-up, and Ezra's coming along because he's worried.
"Ready babe?" Ezra asked, snapping me back to reality.
"Yeah. I'm nervous, Ezra. I've been on edge all week. I just don't know what's wrong..." I said, leaning into his chest. He kissed my head.
"I'm sure you just have a bug that likes to hang around. Let's go see what's up," he said, grabbing my hand leading me to the car.
I stopped right by the car, "Aria, you can do this. I'll be there, no matter what. I promise," he runs his hands from my shoulders to my elbows.
"I know... I just... I don't know," he opened the door and kissed me.
"You'll be fine," I smiled slightly and got in the car.

I shook my leg up and down waiting in the doctor's office. I jumped as my phone went off, and Ezra looked over at me, "Who is it?" I looked at my phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Spencer," I said.
Spencer:
Aria! Where are you?
I kinda crinkled my face and wrote:
Me:
Doctor. Why?
A few seconds later she texted back:
Spencer:
We got an -A message
I almost dropped my phone.
