Aria smiled into her coffee cup. She exhaled, blowing the steam off of the top. Ezra took the coffee cup from her. "I think if all fights end like this. We'll need more coffee," he said.
She laughed. "I think if all fights end like this, I'm going to have to buy stock in like Starbucks."'
"I knew you were a wise woman," he said.
She leaned over and kissed him. "I know this sounds insane but I found something, from when Alison was alive, I'd like to share with you."
"What is it?" he asked.
"It's this contract we all signed. I found it after I left this place. It's this promise that we would never let those moments the perfect ones pass. I plan on not letting this one pass," she answered.
"I need you to accept this," Aria stated, following Ella around the gallery.
Ella turned around and smiled. "I liked Ezra," she said trying out her daughter's boyfriends name on for size. She could get used to it.
"Okay," Aria said, "Is daddy going to be mad?"
"You're father is the last man on the planet I try to understand," Ella laughed, "Does he care about you?"
"Yes," Aria said.
"I always thought there was a simmer between you two," Ella smiled.
Aria kissed her mom's cheek. "I have to get to work."
"On Saturday?" Ella asked.
Aria sighed. "I left some papers that I need to grade at school last night."
Ella laughed. "Yeah I think I know why you forgot those papers." She winked.
Aria's smile grew a little wider. "Exactly."
Ezra finished grading the last term paper for his Honors AP class, as Aria sat down beside him. "I told my mom today," she announced.
He looked at her. "You told your mother today?"
"I ran into her at the gallery, and we talked while she got some stuff ready. I told her," she said.
He smiled. "Okay."
