Hello. This is my first PLL fanfic & it's Ezria! I love them as a couple!
This is set at least after 3x21 Out of sight, Out of mind. :))

DISCLAMER: I don't own PLL or any of the characters in this story. (Sadly!) ENJOY!


Aria smiled as she watched Ezra play with Malcolm. He was such a great father even if Malcolm didn't know it. Part of her wished he would tell Malcolm the truth, but that wasn't her decision. In her mind that was the right thing to do. She had a good time with Malcolm as well she had really gotten used to him and Maggie too. It was clear Maggie wasn't interested in Ezra anymore Malcolm was her key concern. That settled Aria's mind and Ezra has made his feelings clear. He loved Malcolm, he loved Aria as well. She was happy with it that way. Aria smiled as Ezra and Malcolm drove the little metal cars along the coffee table. "Hey Malcolm do you want something to drink?" She smiled. Malcolm pulled his attention away from the cars.

"No thank you Aria, I'm fine." He stood up to get his bag. "Mom packed me a juice bottle." Malcolm took a swig of juice from the bottle and went back to his cars. It seemed like he had created a game where he would drive his favorite metal car around every item of furniture in the apartment. He stood up and began to make car noises as he swerved around Ezra's desk.

"Oh Malcolm be careful I have some important paperwork on there." Ezra stood and went over to over his paperwork then he walked over to Aria to let Malcolm be. "Can't have tiny tyre marks on my new writing. Oh and If your still offering I'll take a drink." He smirked at aria as she shook her head.

"I believe I said Malcolm, but it's a good job I put some coffee on for us too."

"God I knew there was a reason I love you." He laughed as did she as he pulled her in for a kiss. The kiss was light and sweet but perfect.

"Aria and Ezra sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Malcolm laughed and made kiss faces at the couple. Ezra didn't admit it but Aria knew he wanted Malcolm to call him dad. But when he eventually finds out it would be amazing for Ezra. Aria checked her phone...3.30; Maggie was coming to pick Malcolm up in ten minutes. So Malcolm needed to start packing up his things now if he wanted to be ready.

"Hey Malcolm your mom's coming to get you soon. I'd start packing up if I were you." Malcolm followed Arias directions and began to tidy his cars. Ezra turned and smiled at his newly discovered son.

"You know you'll make a great real mother one day. Just like Ella." Aria smiled and thought. Did he just hint that he wanted children with her? Even now he has Malcolm. She looked at him about to ask but left it. "When Malcolm's gone we can have alone time...You know without Malcolm spying on us..." Ezra turned to a giggling Malcolm who was staring at them.

"I'm a ninja you can't see me!" He jumped up again and did a ninja kick. As he brought his foot down he sent some paperwork flying. "Woops sorry Ez... I'll just put that there." He began to pick up the stuff before he was stopped by Ezra.

"Don't worry you put your own stuff away I'll sort this out."

"Okay!" Malcolm smiled and went back to his cars. Aria just laughed at Ezra who was now reaching under the couch to get some scraps of paper. His shirt now rising up his back revealing some skin. Aria slowly walked over and bent down near him to pull his shirt down.

"Thanks." He turned to her and stood up placing the paper back on the coffee table. "Malcolm do you want some help?"

"I want Aria to help me."

Ezra laughed at Malcolm's comment and turned to Aria. "Go on help the little boy." Aria sighed and helped Malcolm as Ezra watched. He just loved seeing his son and the love of his life getting on well together. Malcolm liked Aria a lot and he hoped Aria liked Malcolm. She looked like she did.

"You know you could help." Aria's comment brought Ezra away from his thoughts. "Malcolm has many cars scattered all over your apartment." Ezra sighed and started picking up cars. Aria was right the cars were everywhere. In the bathroom, under his desk, in his bed. Anywhere you could think of there was a car. Malcolm had quite the collection. "Okay I think that's all of them. Here you go." Ezra passed the cars to Malcolm to put in his bag. Once they were all in his bag, as if on cue there was a knock at the door.

"That will be your mother Malcolm." Ezra headed towards the door. Before he opened it Malcolm turned to Aria.

"I love my mom. What's your mom like?"

"She's great. Really awesome she works at my school, just like your mom."

"That's weird." Malcolm turned to see his mother entering. "Sometimes she embarrasses me at school." He whispered

"So does my mom. But I'm sure it's because she loves you."

Malcolm giggled at Aria causing Maggie to look in their direction. "Hello Aria, Malcolm how was your day."

"Great we played cars. And I watched Aria and Ezra kissing." Malcolm grinned at his mother. Who just seemed lost for words. What kind of kissing has they been doing in front of her...Their son.

"Oh that sounds fun. Why don't you wait outside for a minute okay." She ruffled Malcolm's hair before gently pushing him out the door. He managed to squeeze in a quick goodbye before Maggie shut the door. Then she turned to face Aria and Ezra looking curious.

"It is not what it sounds like." Ezra said. Maggie just raised an eyebrow. "Honestly it was light pecks on the lips." He pleaded

"I swear Maggie he barely even paid attention." Aria added.

Maggie relaxed her face and her body. "I'm sorry I just reacted in the spur of the moment. I'm sure you are responsible around Malcolm. Just keep it that way...Please." Her voice was soft but slightly threatening.

"Sure." Ezra and Aria both nodded. Maggie turned to leave but was stopped by Ezra. "Wait!" Maggie turned to face him. "When are you going to tell him...That I'm his dad?"

Maggie blinked a few times before answering. "Soon."

"How soon? You say that every time I ask." Ezra was now almost angry. Aria stepped away from the conversation trying to stay out of it.

"I have to sort a few things first...okay?" Maggie looked at Ezra who nodded. "Thank you." She then left the apartment. Leaving Aria and Ezra alone.

Ezra turned to Aria. "Did she seem to be acting weird to you?" Aria tried to come up with a non meddling response

"I live with mike and my dad. Define weird." She smiled causing Ezra to laugh.

"You're right it's probably just me." Aria wondered how he managed to get that from her statement but just pushed it to the back of her mind. What she really wanted to say is yes. Maggie was acting odd. But that would make Ezra worried and paranoid. "Let's just have some you and me time." He pulled the coffee table back towards the couch where Malcolm had moved it. "So what movie are we going to watch?" He asked her. He really wanted to watch china-town but Aria never could sit through it.

"Toss for it." She smirked. "You got a quarter?"

Ezra pulled out a quarter from his jeans and tossed it in the air. "Your call..."

"Heads..." She prayed for heads but Ezra's face suggested otherwise. "Its tails isn't it..." Ezra happily raised his brows in unison. "Go get china-town." He hopped over to his DVD stand to get the movie.

"I swear you are sitting through this whole movie without falling asleep." He placed the movie in the TV and joined aria on the couch.

"I cannot control my eyelids and when they decide to close." Aria rested her head on his shoulder and looked at Ezra. Who just seemed to be laughing. "Are you going to skip the trailers."

"I would but Malcolm used the batteries from the remote in his remote control car." Ezra sighed.

"Then I will go make popcorn." Aria stood up happily and walked over to the kitchen as Ezra remained behind to watch the trailers. One particularly caught his eye. It was a trailer for a new movie. A tall man stood on the screen.

"The ultimate betrayal of a lover."


Sorry if this is boring. But it gets better this is like a prologue but the last line gives a slight hint about the main story line. Not hard to guess.!
Thanks for reading. :)
