I do not own PLL or any of the characters.

It was a huge day for Aria Montgomery, would Ezra take the job in New Orleans or would he stay in Rosewood? Today he was going to give the board his answer and then tell her. She wanted him to stay more than anything, even if they had to hide their feelings forever. She was going to his apartment in one hour to see if it would be one of the worst days of her life or one of the best.

The moment had finally arrived and she was standing at Ezra's door. She knocked and he answered with a smile on his face. He gave her a kiss and said how good it was to see her. They cuddled on the couch in silence for a while when Aria finally said, "What was your decision Ezra?" He stood and said,"Aria, you mean everything to me but I can't keep hiding our relationship. I think it will be good if we take a break and maybe see other people, so I took the job." Aria sat in silence, then out of nowhere burst into tears. Ezra comforted her until she got up the will to leave. She kissed him goodnight and walked out.

Aria woke the next morning with her eyes red and puffy. She checked her phone and Ezra had texted her sometime after she left his apartment last night. She pressed the READ button and his message popped up. It said,"Aria, I am so sorry and I will always love you, but I think this is best for now. I leave today at 3 p.m. and I would love for you to be there to tell me goodbye. I hope to see you at the airport. -Ezra" It was 12 noon, so Aria went to take a shower and to get ready to say goodbye to the man she loved.
