I walked out of the church with my aunt...I mean...Ester and Elena gave me this odd look as Nick was on the phone.

 "Aria...why don't you give us some time to talk?"

 I heavily sigh and walk towards the bench and sit. "What's wrong Ester...you seem distraught." Ester nods. "Aria's father is in town and we've been talking and."-

"It's the only matter of time before they meet...why don't you just tell her?"

"Aria can't handle that."

 Elena sighs, "she'll hate you if you hide this from her." Nick approaches me. "Was that your new guy that interrupted us the other day?"

 I laugh, "ew...he's like old enough to be my dad."

 Nick smirks, "good because you're still mines." I smirk as I lean forward, my eyes meet his. "Good, you're looking at me." 

He sighs again, "and let me get this out there...Nicolas Lockwood, you don't own me." He smiles.

 "Okay." I tilt my head to the side, "Nick...wait did you just say okay?" 

He nods, "yes indeed I did. You're a girl of your own title and I respect that." I frown, "you're."- I had no comeback, "okay well I'll see you around." I look away, "yea." Nick walks off.

'your plan worked, she's around the corner as we speak.'
Nick presses send and I smoothly glide over to where he was now standing. "Wait that's it?" He nods, "what else more can I say?" 

I bite my lip, "I hate you so much right now."

 He chuckles, "why because you love arguing with me or you just love my games?" He whispers into my ear. I take a deep breath.

 "I'm not with Sara." I look down. "Still she's carrying your child and...dammit."- I grab his hand and pull him into the parking lot behind a random car and smash my lips up against his. "Aria." I shush him. 

"Okay buttercup." He says before planting a kiss on my lips.

 "Ahem." Our session was quickly shut down now. I pull away. "Weren't you two just fighting not too long ago?"

I sigh, "who the hell are you?" Nick asks. "Nick this is Isaac."-

"Isaac?" Ester asks. "Ester?"

"W-what are you doing here?" She asks.

 "I'm here to see you." He says, "why here?"

 He shrugs, "excuse me what's going on?" I ask.

 "Uh well...this guy is my high school sweetheart. Also, he so happens to be the guy I'm dating." Isaac laughs. "I just wanted to meet you cause I was good friends with your father." I nod slowly. "Yeah well, we're just gonna leave the two to dish out."-

"Ester that's bad parenting he was just calling her a bitch three days ago." I sigh planting a hand on my forehead.

 "Hey I'm new at this and they do this all the time!" Isaac laughs, "if she was my daughter she'd."-

"But she's not so back off." I sigh, "and she's not yours."

 I laugh, "what's funny?" Ester asks. "You, excuse me...ha I gotta go." I walk off. "You to Nick go." Ester shoos him. 

"Bye Mrs. Jacobs." As I walked to my car I turned to see Nick who reflected in my car's window. "Aria." I sigh, "what?"

"Whoa, what's wrong?" He asks,.

"nothing...my aunt I mean...nothing I just don't want to be here right now." I climb into my car and drive off. When I climbed out of my car to walk to my house I was stopped by the ready-to-pop mother-to-be Sara. "Hey!" She yells at me. "What do you want now?" I ask, "I'm bored and Nick hasn't returned any of my calls. I have no friends and."-

"That's not my problem." I spat harshly on purpose I might add. "Wow, I deserve that...by the way how are you and Vanessa's friendship?" I roll my eyes. "Why are you talking to me?"

"I just told you!"

"Why?! I ruined your life! You ruined mines." She laughs, "you didn't ruin anything. You made my life better."-

"Oh, you think the people that want to be nice to you now because they like you, well you're wrong. It's because they pity you, they no longer fear you and I am one of those people who doesn't fear you." 

She laughs, "Oh I don't want you to, I want you to know your place."

 I clap, "you're a bigger bitch than I was, maybe even worse. And when you do have that kid and you feel like your alone...it's because you are." She huffs, biting her tongue.

"Have a nice day." I storm into my house and slam the door behind me and make my way up the stairs. I set my coat down and turn to my fixed mirror. I run my hand down my face staring at myself, trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with me. I take a deep breath and look down at my phone.

Jake- Did Nick do something?

Aria- No it's everything...my aunt is my mom and she's dating her high school sweetheart and I'm supposed to be fine...I kissed Nick and I regretted it and you know what people tell me when things get bad or tough especially after my parents died... Is that I either need to move on or get over it
