"Ezra…" My world was crashing down. How could this happen? It was perfect five minutes ago! "Oh my god. Is she my..." His voice trailed off. When he saw the look on my face he knew. That's when I saw tears beginning to slide down his face.
Ezra's Pov.
So many thoughts were rushing through my head I began to feel dizzy. I stood there letting tears escape from my eyes, speechless. Aria was looking down at Grace because she was staring at her shoes. Carter was looking at me with a confused look on his face when I heard Aria say in a worried voice "Grace, go play with Carter for a little bit. Me and Ezra need to have an adult conversation, okay?" When Grace walked away with Carter I could finally talk again. "I-I have a daughter? Aria, why didn't you tell me! How old is she? Why did you keep her from me? I didn't get to see her grow up! How could you do this to me, Aria? I was in love with you and you just left! Without a goodbye! Did I even mean anything to you! Didn't I deserve to know a had a daughter!" I was so angry with Aria! How could she keep something this big from me? I could tell Aria was getting angry too. "I didn't tell you because I didn't want to ruin your life! I left because I wanted more for you! I knew if I told you I was pregnant before I left you wouldn't let me leave and later you would regret it! I knew you would! And how would it look if people found out that I was pregnant with my former English teacher's child and I was only seventeen? Huh Ezra? It would be horrible, so I did the only thing I could thing of! I left. I left for you!" I couldn't believe what I was hearing! I went and sat down on the bench behind me. Aria came and sat next to me. I had so many things to think about right now! Like why would she think this would ruin my life? Why would she think this would make me love her any less? I loved her so much and all this time I was wondering what I had done wrong for her to leave, but the real reason was because she "thought" I would be mad and leave her. But in realty I would have stuck by her side the entire time! I would have proposed to her! I started to cool down. I started to think about realty not the past. Is it too late? Can I fix this? I still love her! I never loved anyone like I loved her. I had dated a few girls in the past five years but they didn't come close to Aria. I couldn't let go of her. Whenever I was on a date all I could think about was how I wished she were sitting in front of me. Does she still love me? Has she moved on? I need to find this out. Now, before it was too late. "I'm sorry I yelled Aria. It's just that I've missed you so much and now I know we have a daughter. I know I missed out on the precious moments like her first words and first steps. I want to know all about her and just so you know I'm not missing another second of her life" I wasn't angry and crying anymore. I was hurt. When I said these carefully chosen words and I could see Aria getting more comfortable which made me get comfortable too. " Her name is Grace Anna Montgomery. I named her Anna after your mother. She is five years old. She acts like she is six though." She remembered. I thought back to when we were dating when I was working at Hollis. We were talking about names for our children and we decided if we had a daughter we would name her Anna after my mother. I couldn't hide the smile that formed across my face when she told me that. "You remembered" "I did" she said with a grin. Now was my chance. I was going to tell her how I felt. "Aria I love you. I always have and always will. I want to spend the rest of my life with you and our daughter." After I said that her face went from happy to sad. Did I say something wrong? Doesn't she feel the same way about me? "What's wrong? You don't feel the same way about me anymore? What happened to us?" I choked on these words. My heart was breaking all over again. I wasn't going to loose her this time. I wont let it happen! "Ezra, of coarse I feel the same way. But you can't act like nothings changed! You have a son for god sakes!" What the hell was she talking about? I don't have a son! Then it hit me, she thought Carter was my son! "No no no, Carter isn't my son! He's my nephew!" "Your nephew? Seriously?" I nodded and flashed my boyish smile I kneew she loved. "I feel so stupid now! I just though he was your son because you guys look so much alike and- I interrupted her rambling by crashing my lips into hers. The instant our lips touched I felt the sparks. The fireworks! Every time our skin touches there is a bolt of electricity that rushes though my body. At first her lips didn't respond to mine probably because I had shocked her, but a few seconds into the kiss her lips started to move with mine. It felt so good to kiss her again. I've missed her so much I don't know how I survived without her. When we pulled apart for air we started at each other breathlessly. "So where does this leave us?' she said with a huge grin. "I don't know." I said chuckling. Then I spoke again, "Do you want to discuss this over lunch with the kids?" "That sounds great. It'll give you time to catch up with Grace" I smiled. I wanted to know everything about my daughter. I though about looking through baby pictures of her with Aria. That would be a great family moment I though to myself as I smiled. "I can't wait, lets go get the kids" When we stood up she slipped her small hand into my bigger one. We walked hand in hand to get Grace and Carter. I had a wide smile on my face and I couldn't hide my happiness. How would I be able to? I had just kissed the love of my life and met my beautiful daughter. Actually I hadn't formally met her yet. But who cares, I already loved her with all my heart! Today had truly been the best day of my life. I can't believe I get to go spend time with the two most important people in my life. My girls.
So there it is. How did you like it? As good as you thought it would be? I hope so! So one of you who commented about who carter was, was right!(: I never enjoyed writing but I am with this story! Thanks for reading(: Tell me what you think! Thanks again(: ~ xo Haley
