Lost In Translation & Out Of The Woods (Sequel)

chapter 7

"You've had a text."

Ezra looked at the girl confused, it was obvious she had been crying and it was even more obvious that if she wasn't calmed down Ezra would be leaving this room in a body bag.

"Oh have I? Who from?" The man asked gently, he took off his jacket placing a bag of food down on the table. He had no clue what was yet to come because all of this time he had prayed it would never happen.

"From -A." Aria stood up, you could see her shaking from a mile away. Her fingers shook frantically as she glared at Ezra. Silence.

"It's strange now you're lost for words." She screamed and walked over to Ezra, she was so close she could feel his breathing yet this was a different type of intimacy. Trying her best, she held back anymore tears she possibly could.

"Aria I didn't mean-"

"I believed you Ezra. I loved you. After all you put me through I loved you. And you just can't seem to leave the thrill alone can you?" With her final words she pushed Ezra against the wall leaving him to hit his head with the amount of force there was. "Nobody would believe you apart from me- all that story of the book, it was just a lie? You've been working for -A all along?"

"Aria please, what I said before was true I just needed-" He moved quickly taking hold of both of Aria's hands, she quickly pulled back screaming "Don't you dare touch me."

If Ezra could tell Aria he would, but that would cause so much more heartache then there was right now. Watching her cry just showed the world crashing before his eyes. This was the end, it was all because of one mistake. Aria finally sat down, trying to calm herself before she did something that at the time she wouldn't regret but in the future maybe.

"When I found out what you'd done, I just thought of you. I thought, I know him. He would never done anything like this to me. I know his heart, he wouldn't do this to hurt me. Not again-" She burst into tears, each word now a difficulty to get out. "But I didn't realise that because I believed in you so much that my confidence in us was at a high but now its been shattered. By one thing. I'm so stupid. This has all been ruined by something so stupid and now I'm never going to be able to trust anybody ever again-"

"Aria I can explain." Of course he could not but it physically felt like his heart was crumbling into a million pieces.

Aria took a deep breath and looked at him, it hurt. So much. The man she had loved for so many years- it was just all a lie. He had worked his way in all this time to get the inside scoop on the girl and her friends. He never had loved her, she was so stupid. All these thoughts whizzed through her mind and she finally just said

"Give me a reason then. Why you did it. Why you lied to me. Why...You broke my heart."

Silence again. It almost felt like a pillow being shoved over the girls face and she immediately began to grab her things. If she didn't get out this room now she'd end up in prison for murder.

"Aria-" Ezra reached for the girls wrist and she turned round to look him straight in the eye.

"You're dead to me."
