When I look at you

Chapter 39: find my way back

ARIAS POV:
ezra. Suddenly I wasn't so cold. I wasn't so scared or drunk anymore. I felt safe and at home except I couldn't feel my legs. He carried me to his apartment somewhere I thought I'd never end up. He laid me on his couch and I fell asleep.

EZRAS POV:
I never expected the day would come again for her to end up in my arms again. Except she wasn't mine as I looked her finger as it glistened. When she wakes up I know she'll walk out of here once more and that's why I'm ready to tell her everything.

ARIAS POV:
When I woke up I didn't know where I was I just knew who I was with. I didn't remember much of last night except falling in his arms and not leaving me cry and fall on the ground. I finally sat up not knowing what to do or what his next move was. Ezra woke up as I did. "Why didn't you just leave me there ezra huh? Is this a sick joke?" "No of course not Aria. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for who you think I am. And everything I put you through. But I'm not A." He said my eyes widened "what did you just say?" "I'm not A. A was prepared to hurt you Aria. Was prepared to kill you unless I joined the team and left you. They set ali up to make you think we were together. I'm sorry." Tears were running down my face "why couldn't you've told me sooner." "I did it to protect you. Aria I want you in my life and these past 4 months have been the biggest hell. I was so in love with you and still am. I was up every night thinking about you. I couldn't move on. I tried to see people but it didn't help I always shot them down knowing they were no Aria. I know you've moved on but I can't."
