Chapter 6

Aria's pov

Without saying a word, I cupped his face and kissed him.

"Is that a yes?" He managed and I giggled.

"Yes! Absolutely, completely yes." I whispered before kissing him again. Even though we've only been together a year, nothing about us has ever been slow.

"I love you." He said softly as we pulled apart and he slipped the ring on my finger. I recognize it from an old picture of his grandparents, it had been his grandmothers for about 55 years before she passed away.

"I love you too." I said as he stood us back up and softly kissed me again.

"Whenever you want to get married, just say the word baby." He whispered as we pull apart and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"I don't want to wait." I said and he gently cupped my face.

"Are you sure?" He asked and I nodded.

"I've waited my whole life for you, I don't want to wait another minute." I said and he kissed my nose.

"Okay baby, I'll go get everything ready. You might want to go tell your mom." He said and pulled me in for another kiss.

"I'll be picking you up from your mom's in about an hour." Ezra said as we pulled apart and he brushed some hair behind my ear.

"Pretty soon I'll be calling you my wife." He whispered and I giggled before kissing him.

...

I quietly walked into my parents house to see Oliver in the middle of the room, fast asleep in his rock n play bassinet we keep here.

"Aria, aren't you suppose to be on your date?" My mom asked when she saw me as she walked out of the kitchen.

"Yeah..." I said and showed her the ring.

"Congratulations! Come on, you still have a bunch of dresses up in your closet. There should be at least one or two that's white." My mom said, leading me up the stairs.

"What?" I asked confused, I know Ezra wouldn't tell her, he had told me that she would be waiting for my call.

"Aria, why else would you be here?" She asked and I pointed towards Oliver.

"And the few times someone babysat him overnight, you just randomly show up to check on him? And only you?" My mom asked knowingly and I raised an eyebrow at her.

"Maybe I couldn't stay away from Ollie." I said, she gave me a look.

"How are you fine with this?" I asked as we went into my old room, which is now half a nursery for when Oliver is here.

"What have I always told you?" She asked as she sorted through my dresses that I had left here.

"You can make your own decisions, you are your own person." She said and I saw the dress that I would wear.

"I don't ever remember wearing this after I bought it." I said when my mom handed me the dress. It was a short dress, with a button up v neck and the sleeves were sheer lace. I had gotten it from a cute boho boutique in Iceland, right before we came back.

"You're not mad?" I asked still confused and she gave me a look.

"If I was mad, would I be helping you get ready?" She asked.

"Is this what you really want?" She asked and I nodded.

"More than anything." I said as she helped me. I really don't want to wait, the one thing I want more than anything is to be Ezra's wife.

"Then that's what matters most." She said and I found my white peep toe heels. As I strapped my shoes on, my mom started re curling my hair and we heard Oliver start to fuss.

"I'll get him." Mike said as he walked out of the bathroom. I opened my purse and pulled out my makeup.

"I thought Aria and Ezra weren't coming until tomorrow for Oliver? Why is Ezra here? And why is he being weird?" Mike asked as he came into the room and noticed me on my old bed.

"Didn't you leave already?" Mike asked confused,

"We're eloping." I said after looking at Ella, who nodded.

"Me and Ezra, not you and me." I said when Mike looked at me slightly scared and confused.

"That explains why Ezra was outside, yes I let him in. And you do realize there's school tomorrow right?" He said and I nodded as I finished re applying my makeup.

"What did Ollie need?"I asked as I finished my makeup.

"Don't know, I had just picked him up when I noticed Ezra and let him in... said and I quote 'here is your poop machine' I just assumed it was poop." Mike said and I stood up.

"Sometimes I worry about when we'll need you to babysit by yourself." I said and he chuckled.

"I'm going back to bed, congrats and goodnight." He said and walked out.

"He's not going to bed, he'll just be playing video games." I said knowingly after seeing it was only 9:30 and she nodded.

"Are you ready?" She asked and I nodded. I started making my way towards the door, but my mom stopped me and made me look at her.

"Just promise me one thing." She said and I nodded, I already knew what she was going to say.

"I'm not going to come home pregnant mom. Ezra and I already talked about this, there are no more grand babies on your horizon for another 5 years, 6 years tops." I said and she nodded.

"Good, because you're not allowed to come home pregnant again." She said and I nodded.

"I am not going to come home pregnant." I said and she nodded, before she could tell me not to come home pregnant again I walked out downstairs. Ezra saw me and I could tell he was trying to find words.

"Hi." He said as I walked down the stairs.

"Hi you." I said as he took my hand and my mom took Oliver from him.

"Go, you're not getting him back until tomorrow." She said and pointed to the door.

"Why does everyone us tell when we're getting OUR son back?" I asked as Ezra lead me out towards the car and he chuckled.

"I have no clue." He said as he opened my door, I cupped his face and kissed him. As we pulled apart, I got into the car and he made his way to his side.

"These are for you. They were the only ones far enough away from any daisy... I'm trying to marry you not kill you." He said handing me a small bouquet of light pink roses with baby breath.

"Well thanks for trying not to kill me, you'd have to explain that to my mother." I said and he chuckled.

"You look incredibly beautiful." He said, leaning in for another kiss. I giggled as we pulled apart and he kissed my nose.

"Just for you, and you don't look bad yourself." I said as he pulled out of the driveway, took my hand in his and laced our fingers together. Neither of us said anything throughout the car ride, we didn't need to.

"Last chance to back out." Ezra said as he pulled in front of the church and I pulled him in for a kiss.

"Last chance for you to back out." I said, saying the same thing as him.

"I know what I want, and that's you and me forever." He said and brushed his lips against mine.

"As do I." I whispered as we pulled apart.

...

"I take you Aria to be my waffle wedded wife." Ezra said as he slid the wedding ring onto my finger. I started giggling as he realized what he said and he looked over at pastor ted, who was holding back his chuckling.

"I wasn't nervous until now." He said and I finally stopped giggling so much.

"Least you didn't say pancake." I said and he chuckled.

"I know better than to call you a pancake." He said and Pastor Ted swallowed his laughter.

"By the state of Pennsylvania, I now pronounce you man and wife. You may now kiss the bride." Ted said and Ezra wasted no time, his lips were on mine and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"And you are officially my wife." Ezra murmured against my lips, making me giggle.

...

Ezra's lips were softly on mine as he pinned me up against the door. I cupped his face as he slipped his tongue into my mouth and slid his hand up my dress.

"Are you gonna open the door or are we gonna do it right here?" I managed as he started planting kisses down my neck. Chuckling, he gently lifted me up and opened the door. The room was filled with lit candles and the bed had rose petals scattered on top. As he shut the door, he gently pinned me up against the door and I rested my forehead against his.

"I love you." We whispered at the same time and his lips were softly on mine again. His hands started slowly unzipping the back of my dress, I slipped my heels off just as he gently laid me onto the bed.
