Chapter 40

~Still Ezra's birthday~


Aria's POV


"God who's now?" I groaned as I heard someone knocking at the door again


"Just ignore it." Ezra said and I tried but few moments later Hardy banged into his room


"Dude why aren't you opening the door?" He yelled. I looked in Ezra and he let go of me moving his head from my stomach


"Hi Hardy. What are you doing here?" Ezra asked. I got up from the bed and put on my heals


"It's your birthday dude. Of course I'm going to come but I didn't know that she stayed last night." Hardy said pointing in me


"She didn't stayed last night. She came this morning and she's leaving now." I said as I got up from the bed


"I'm sorry I didn't want to..."


"It's okay Hardy. I'm just gonna go in the store. You guys need anything?" I interrupted Hardy


"Maybe you can bring me some sugar?" Ezra asked. I knew what he meant so I kissed his lips


"I meant real sugar." Ezra said and I chuckled. I used my purse and left. I stayed in the store more than I planed but honestly I didn't even want to be with Hardy and Ezra. I don't like that Hardy guy. I mean you can't talk to him like a normal person. He always has something dirty on his mind and it disgust me to even talk to him so I just try to avoid him without Ezra noticing. I don't want to hurt Ezra. Hardy is his best friend


"Hey birthday boy." I said when I walked in his apartment. He was sitting on the couch alone. What is good. Just me and him


"I have to ask you something." Ezra said as he got up from the couch and came to me. He wrapped his hands around my waist


"When will I get my birthday present?" He asked I put my hands on his shoulders and under his shirt


"I thought.. That I'll give it to you tonight... When we're alone." I said whispering the last part. He slowly pushed me and I had to make a step back


"We're alone now." Ezra whispered as he pushed me again what made me make one more step back. Now I was leaned on the kitchen counter and Ezra started to kiss me. I pulled back


"I would righter give you your present tonight. Someone might interrupt us now." I said and Ezra chuckled


"Well tonight I'm on a party with Hardy and few more friends and I don't know when I'll come home." Ezra said and I looked confused in him


"A party? When did you planed on telling me this?" I asked pulling away


"I just did. Look I didn't know until Hardy told me few minutes ago."


"And you just said yes?" I asked disappointed


"Yes. He's my friend and I can't just tell him to cancel everything so I can lay around and watch movies with you." Ezra said


"Is that how you see that? Just lay around and watch movies?" I asked and Ezra opened his mouth to say something


"Actually I don't wanna know." I said before he could say anything. "But you should know that Hardy is not the only one that had planes for tonight." I added using my purse. My eyes filled with tears


"Aria I'm sorry I didn..."


"No Ezra. I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I made you believe that you won't get anything for your birthday." I interrupted him as I turned my way to go out but Ezra grabbed my hand


"Aria wait. I'll tell Hardy that I won't come." Ezra said


"I'm tired of waiting Ezra. You always choose him over me. Don't cancel on him I mean why would just lay around and watch movies with me when you can go out and get drunk with him." I said as tear felt down my cheek


"Aria I never choose him over you." Ezra said


"You do. You just don't see it. It's not just today Ezra. It's many days before too. He would come over and you would just forget that I'm here too. I was out for almost 3 hours and you didn't even texted if I was okay because Hardy was here. Usually when I say I'm going in the store you text 10 minutes later to see if I'm okay. And no I'm not saying that everything has to be about me because I'm used to the thought that it's not. But it hurts to see the person you love just forgets about you when someone else comes." I said and walked out. Ezra tried to stop me but I didn't let him. I just pulled away and continued walking as more tears was going down my cheeks. For the past 3 weeks I'm trying to make everything perfect for his birthday and now... Now all I have to do is make one call to cancel everything. Actually I can't cancel it because I already paid everything. I was again left to walk for about one hour. I hate when we fight but I couldn't stay quiet anymore. I've been keeping my mouth shut for few months and I can't do it anymore. I don't know why he even have a thought that we'll just watch movies. I know that's what we did for my birthday but I hate my birthdays. I just wanted him to have the best birthday ever but I turned it into the worst day of my life
