ARIAS POV

I wake up in Ezra's arms for the first time in a while, since Ezra has been letting Hardy stay with him. I look up and hug him tighter and he wakes up and gives me a kiss on the forehead.

"Morning babe", he says to me.

"Hey babe", I say and blush. It's been almost 2 long years with him and I still blush at these silly things.

"What are your plans for today?", he asks me.

"Oh I don't know....just a little bit of this", I say and get on top of him.

"Woah okay" he replies and runs his fingers through my hair.

Ezra's phone is vibrating and I know immediately it must be Hardy. The fact that he probably wants to come back to the apartment is devastating because I want more alone time with Ezra, but I love how great of a guy my boyfriend is for letting Hardy stay with him while he gets everything together. It's funny we started this relationship way too fast, never having to wait for our parents to go out, or worrying about siblings rushing down the steps. We always had his apartment. That is ONE of the things Ezra and I have had easy, and for now it's gone.

He picks up the phone. "What's up Hardy", Ezra answers.

"Well when will you be back here?"....... "Oh okay gotcha. See you soon man" Ezra says and hangs up.

"When will he be back??", I ask

"Probably like 40 minutes, him and Spencer are getting breakfast. I think he was gonna ask us to join but he probably heard in my voice that I just wanna be with you.", Ezra answers.

For the next 30 minutes we just lay there and talk and laugh. I really think I am the happiest girl alive. He makes me so happy. Even when we're fighting or I hate him, I am still so in love with him. He is just so freakin cute. I look at him smile and I just smile. Things are going great for me, and I hope things are going just as good for my friends.

I grab my stuff and kiss Ezra goodbye. I hope I get to see him before Monday, but it doesn't seem likely. My parents are going to know where I've been and be annoyed with me. Not because they don't understand, but because they are scared for me, and because they are still just regular parents of a teenage daughter who don't want their kid sleeping over her boyfriends house at 18 years old. I understand, and I'm grateful that they are as understanding as they are about Ezra and I.

As I get in my car I see a cop car drive away from Ezra's. I wonder if anything happened recently. I drive home and turn on the news but I don't see anything.

"Well if it isn't my big sister sneaking into the house as usual", Mike taunts me.

"I'm not even sneaking Mike I'm just not going to wake anyone to announce my arrival", I shoot back.

"Are you gonna tell mom and dad where you've been?", He asks.

"If they ask me then sure Mike I will tell them.", I assure him.

"I'm just kidding Aria you can tell them whatever you want, but do you know why there's been a cop car up and down our street lately?", Mike asks me.

"I mean I haven't been home much so I haven't really noticed but no I have no idea.", I honestly reply.

EZRAS POV

It's Monday morning and I wake up to the sound of my shower. Usually I would be extremely happy to hear this because it would mean Aria was in the shower but I have to remind myself that it's Hardy. I get out of bed to put the coffee on but Hardy already did that and he made me breakfast. I pour myself a cup and I eat some scrambled eggs and wait for my shower.

When I arrive at school I pick up my mail from the office and I go to my classroom. While I'm sitting in there I notice a cop car outside and I start to get a very uneasy feeling. I text Aria and let her know about the cop and she says she also saw a cop outside my house AND her brother has been seeing one outside her house. Now this uneasy feeling has turned to awful paranoia and I reply to her saying we can't mess around at all today or this week if there's cops around. She agrees and I decide to try to grade some essays to get my mind off of it. The first essay I pick up. Aria Montgomery. Are you kidding me? Maybe I should give her a low grade you know, to throw people off. I read the essay and it really deserves an A+, she is beyond talented and this is one of the many reasons I am so head over heels in love with her. But I decide to give her a B, knowing it won't affect anything in the long run.

Students pile in and I remind myself no funny business today.

Aria walks in with her friends and I don't even look up. The day goes by like it normally would if she were absent.

After school an officer comes by my classroom.

"Mr. Fitz?", he says. "Your under arrest for the Statutory Rape of a student."

My mind goes blank. How did it come to this point? We were so close. And SOOOO careful. He reads me my rights and walks me out the door. I look at my car and Aria is in the passenger seat. I immediately blame this on her. How could she be so stupid? I think as I get shoved into the back of a cop car.
