[You know where to meet me. Don't be late or you'll pay.
-A]
As soon as Ezra received the message he began to go into panic not caring about what he had just seen.
"What was all of that about?"
"Yeah I'm sorry, I have to go."
Ezra pulled his jacket on as he headed for the door before Aria pressed a hand to his chest to stop him. No matter what she did now he would still leave, he needed to get to -A right now. He couldn't upset them again.
"Go where?"
"Out."
"For how long?"
"I'll bring back dinner. Sit tight."
As soon as Ezra walked out the door he let out a sigh of relief. Meanwhile Aria was left standing at the door she tried to think of a reasonable explanation for the mans actions but nothing came to mind. All she could think of was the worst. Was he seeing someone else? Maybe he was seeing one of his old lovers, someone who was older and more intelligent and could actually get served at a bar when they first met. She was being forced out of the picture just like many times before, she honestly believed they were able to move on from stupid behaviour like this. Maybe this wasn't going as smoothly as she thought it was going to be. It hurt her, more than she'd like to admit so she just sat on the bed looking across to the mirror. Maybe she should get changed and they could go out when Ezra returned? But truthfully if he was going to act like this Aria this time wasn't going to put on a front.
Ezra was in his car meeting at the usual address, the house was only a mile or so from the hotel that was the reason he'd picked it just incase anything like this occurred. She walked to the mini fridge and pulled out the small bottle of wine pouring it all into the glass. She searched through her bag looking for something to change into before tying up her chestnut locks.
[Don't bother with the food. I'm not hungry. -Aria]
Maybe she was blowing things out of proportion but when the love of your life flips drastically it becomes slightly worrying. Anything could be going on in Ezra's mind right now.
"Hello?" The man called out as he began to look round from room to room until he saw the hooded figure. A shiver ran down his spine as he stood behind them. There was silence so Ezra finally decided to speak up.
"Please I can't do this anymore." But he knew he had to, to protect himself and everyone around him. He couldn't stop now because -A had far too much on him, much more than any of the girls, he was in too deep. Ezra quickly changed his words to make them more useful. "Just leave Aria out of this please, she can't know any of this. I'll do anything. I promise."
