Chapter Eighteen

*Ezra's POV*

Where the hell is Aria? I have looked all over for her. I heard sirens earlier, but the last time I saw her was a minute before that so she couldn't have been hurt. I've checked the hotel at least five times. 

"Aria?" I yelled while walking through the third floor's corridor. I started knocking on the door to see if Aria was kidnapped which is awfully strange considering that is even a possibility. I hope she's okay wherever she is. After that thought I sat quietly for a while.

*A's POV*

I've seen Ezra walk around this hotel at least five times.

I wish I could've just shot him and killed him, considering that bitch Jackie couldn't have done a better job. I should've killed all of them when I got the chance. Aria freaked out when she heard the sirens. It was the perfect time to take her. She's passed out in a chair right now. I was going to inject the mercury when she was unconscious, but I wanted to wait until she you know, came to. It will only torture her to know more. I'm going to kill her and her child! Hah! 

"Say bye, Aria!" I yelled loud enough to wake her up. I started to laugh degenerately. She looked up at me with worried eyes. I knew she needed someone to confide in, maybe she'll get so hopeless that she'll need me. 

The Text Message: "I'd hurry up, Mr. Fitz. -A"

*Aria's POV*

Okay, I have to think fast. I still have no idea where I am, I think I'm in the roof of the hotel. Where's Ezra? Is he looking for me? I felt the tears starting to build in the corner of my eyes. I could feel the tape over my mouth start to ware off from my tears falling down my cheeks. The tape fell half way off. I looked at the person standing before me. 

"Who are you?" I said with anger shown in my voice.

"Take a wild guess." They had a voice distorter to change their voice.

"I can't guess anymore. I want the truth!" I shouted hoping to god Ezra was nearby.

"Hahaha, poor little Aria." My face turned red and my ears got hot. I wanted to get up from this stupid chair, but I was tied down.

"Please," I cried. "J5ust let me go, please." I felt tears of defeat roll down my face.

"If I let you go, what will you do for me?" 

"I'll leave, we'll all leave, for good. That's a promise." I saw the person before me's cheek bones rise, letting me know they were smirking.

"Fine. I'll be watching, I'll always be watching." The strange figure approached me and started to untie the ropes wrapped around my pregnant figure. I ran out of there as fast as I could as soon as I got the chance. What if they were lying? Would they leave us alone? Will they actually watch all of us still after all these years? I need to find Ezra. He's probably worried about me. Should I tell him about the incident that had just occurred? I'm not sure. Knowing him he would probably freak out and try to be tough for my friends and I. I don't want to put him in that position to feel like he has to protect me, he really doesn't, but I had always felt safer with him, even when he hadn't known about some of the hardships and troublesome times I've had. I would feel so guilty though, knowing a secret, and keeping it from him. But, is it for the best? Before I could answer my own question, I saw Ezra standing there, looking for me. I decided in that moment if I would tell him or not.

"Ezra, hey." I said walking up to him and planting a light kiss on his lips.

"Aria, where have you been?" I looked nervous, I could tell.

"I...um...was on the roof." I tried coming up with an excuse, something i've become good at because of, A.

"Why were you on the roof?" I knew he was going to ask that.

"Scenery." I said sounding innocent.

"Oh, alright then. Back to the room?"

"Mhm." I said wrapping my arms around his side. I could feel myself trembling. I was so scared. What if A makes it worse, for all of us? I swear to god if He/She/It does, I will go into cardiac arrest. I felt horrible for lying to Ezra. He doesn't deserve this. What if I just told him, right here, right now? That would definitely make a scene, He would freak out in front of everybody. Wait, if Jackie wasn't A than who is?

"Ezra? Where's Jackie?" I asked worriedly. He looked at me with concern. "Ezra! We need to leave!"
