The second chapter to this! I'm really glad you're loving reading it as much as I am writing it! Please review and if you have any suggestions please do let me know. Also, start thinking of names for their baby. I have another chapter written and waiting to go up so I will do that either tomorrow or Tuesday (maybe even Wednesday, depending on work I have to do for Uni). I'm not American, I'm British so I'm trying really hard to make this authentic! Enjoy chapter 2! xx


"Scout!" Ezra loudly exclaimed as they sat in the waiting room.

"What do you mean?" Aria said, seemingly this outburst had her a little more than startled.

"I want to call out little girl scout, as a reference to our favorite book. What do you think? Gosh, I'm so excited Aria I cant even put it in to words what this means to me."

I'm really glad he wants this but there's no way he's cursing our child with an obscure name. Its bad enough being called Aria! She thought silently to herself.

"Hmmm, I'm not so sure. Besides, you don't yet know if it's a girl. I think I want a girl though. I'd love to sit and make her little dresses."

They both imagined what a mini Aria would look like and silently awed at the possibility.

"Aria Montgomery" a friendly voice exclaimed from across the room. "Would you like to follow me?"

They all entered the doctor's office where they were introduced to Dr. Shields, a tall, thin, older lady with a warm face. Aria knew that she would like her.

"You must be Aria" She began. "Its lovely to meet you! And who's this that you've brought with you?"

"This is Ezra, the baby's father and my boyfriend." Ezra waved at the doctor looking clearly very excited by it all. Seeing Ezra like this was making Aria feel like she was about to melt. She had to remind herself that this was something he'd only known of for a few hours at the most.

"Okay Aria", Doctor Shields continued, "I'm going to give you a quick examination first to check that you're both healthy and that baby's developing well and then we're going to move on to an ultrasound. Does that all sound okay to you both?" They both nodded in agreement and Aria made her way towards the bed and rolled her top up just high enough for the doctor to do what she needed to do. Ezra followed her across and stood behind holding Arias hand and rubbing small circles on the back of it. Aria loved when he did that.

Ezra stared at his girlfriend's tiny frame lying there and found it hard to imagine that their child was inside of her.

"Aria, how far along did you think you were?" the doctor asked.

"Well, when I went to my regular GP he reckoned I was about three months, that was two weeks ago so I guess now I'd be around fourteen weeks."

"Hmm." Was all that the doctor said to the couple. "Okay, well I have a funny feeling you may be a bit further along than you think. Either that or you're expecting twins! But lets take a look, shall we?"

Ezra gripped her hand tighter in excitement as the machine flashed up and a gloopy, clear gel was put on Aria's stomach. The doctor began to move part of the machine across the gel and a blurry grey and black image appeared.

"There's your baby! Everything looks great." The doctor said after a few minutes. Ezra stood rooted to the spot, unable to blink or say anything. One solitary tear fell from his eye and hit Arias hand where he has previously been rubbing. She cried too. "Can we have a picture, please?" She asked.

"Sure, but Aria I have to tell you, you're not three and a half months gone, you're actually five and a half. I'm sorry for the mix up but really, GP's aren't trained to give a specific timeframe and your doctor shouldn't have said anything. I appreciate that you have a small frame and that that could well be the reason for the mix up. Still, your baby is healthy but I do recommend that the two of you go to antenatal classes as soon as possible and you really should start purchasing the basics. The hospital issues new mom packs but if I'm completely honest, you might find better help from family and friends or even online. I know that's a lot to take in, do either of you have any questions?"

"I think I've understood anything. Ezra, what about you, baby?" Still silence. Aria sat up and proceeded to put her jacket back on, ready to face the cold evening.

"Well anyway, here's my card. It has both my number and email address. Please, if you think of anything you'd like to ask then get in contact. Even if its just panic over what type of diapers to buy! I really am here for you both." With that they left the doctors office and collected the pictures from their scan. Aria had asked for a DVD too, she knew that hearing her baby's heart beat again wasn't something she wanted to wait for her next scan for.

They walked together to the car but Ezra was yet to speak until they got inside. "Aria, are your parents in? We're going to tell them right now. I don't want this kept a secret any longer. I saw how tiny our baby is and I want to protect them and start being a good father from now. I refuse to let out baby come in to a world where he or she thinks they are shameful to us. We're going to be a proper family and that starts now." She knew he was right even if she was scared. It was now or never. They began the hour-long drive back to Rosewood, back to the Montgomery's.
