Dresses and Dinners

*Aria POV*

Elena, Jackson, Dylan and I walk into the mall to get our dresses and suits for the Christmas dance. Elena and I go to go find dress while Jackson and Dylan are looking for suits at a different store.

"Oh my gosh Aria! This would look perfect on you!" Elena rushes over. When I get closers I see a beautiful white dress. It's all white with some crystals at the bottom and a bow on the back. I take the dress in my size and try it on. I walk out of the dress and Elena's jaw drops.

"This is perfect! Oh my gosh!" Elena squeals. I go back into my dressing room and change out of the dress. I walk out of the dressing room with the dress in my hands and I see Elena with a light blue strapless dress with a a blur strap around the waist with a big diamond on the strap. She looks beautiful and it's perfect.

"Elena! Stop looking so perfect!" I walk over to her. She twirls around a few times but stops before getting dizzy.

"You really like it?" She asks.

"Yes! It's amazing' c'mon lets go get shoes" Me and Elena Pay for the dresses and go into a shoe store. I find White heels with some crystals on it and it goes perfect with my dress. Elena finds silver glittery heels and buys those. We pay and find some silver necklaces. We see Dylan and Jackson walking towards us with bags in there hands. We all walk out and decide to go to dinner.

*Ezra POV*

I'm practically starving so I decide to go out. I sit on the bar part of this little restaurant. I take a sip of beer as I see 4 people walk in. One of those people is Aria. She's with Elena and their boyfriends. She sits down at one of the tables and I decide to just sit here and drink. A guy then comes and sits next me.

"What is a good looking 27 year old sitting at a bar?" The guy says, I recognize his voice anyway. I turn my head to see that it's my bestfriend from collage.

"Hardy! what are you doing here?" We pump our fist together.

"I went to California with my girlfriend and I felt like getting something to eat and here I am! what about you?"

"I got a job at Stanford and I'm teaching her" I move my eyes towards her and he's sees her and turns back to me.

"Your teaching Aria again?" He asks and I nod.

"The great thing about it is that she has a boyfriend! and I got her mad at me so she kinda hates me also"

"Dude that sucks" Hardy says putting his hand on my shoulder.

*Aria POV*

I walked into a small restaurant with my friends. As I'm walking in I see Ezra sitting at the bar looking lonely. I just ignore him and try to have a good time. About 15 minutes later I look over and see about the same aged man sitting with him and there talking.

"Aria?" I snap back into reality as Elena is waving her hand in my face.

"I'm sorry, I'm just tired. Can we go back now?" I ask.

"Sure" Dylan says as he stands up and gives me his jacket. Dylan and Jackson split the bill and me and Elena are talking. while I'm walking out I look over at Ezra and he's looking straight at. I stare for about 5 seconds and turn away. I grab Dylan's hand and walk out the door.
