Ezra's POV:

As I get into the shower, I hear the door open. At first, I think it's an intruder, but the I hear.

Aria: EZRA!

I run to the front door where my wife looks like she's about to cry.

Ezra: Aria!

As I say her name she runs into my arms and hugs me.

Aria: I've missed you so much.

Ezra: So have I, how is my little soldier?

Aria: You don't even know if it's a boy or girl.

Ezra: When's the next appointment?

Aria: In two weeks.

Ezra: Aria, can I talk to you for a minute?

Aria: Of course and you know that you can talk to me about anything!

We walk over to the couch and I start to talk.

Ezra: I've been offered a new job.

Aria: That's amazing!

As aria tells me it's amazing, she hugs me tightly.

Ezra: Ok, you think it's amazing. But, the job that they have offered me is in England.

As I say this, I can see tears forming in Aria's eyes.

Aria: How long?

Ezra: Do you mean: how long is the job or how long till I make my final decision or how long have I known?

Aria: All of them!

Aria's POV:

Ezra: Well the job is 6 months to 1 year and till I make my final decision, I have 2 weeks. And the job starts in 6 months, and I've known for about a week.

Aria: Do you realise what this is going to do to our future, our baby's future. What about family and friends, they can't come with us.

Ezra: I know, I've thought about that, but this is a new life for us.

Aria: a new life, that's what you want. I'm happy hear, in our small apartment. We would have been happy in a new house that I was looking for.

Ezra: You were looking for houses?

Aria: Yes Ezra, a new house. And it might come as a shock to you, but we can't raise a child in a tiny apartment with only one bed.

Ezra: That's true, but we still can raise a child in England.

At this point we are shouting and screaming.

Aria: I don't care about England, I'M NOT GOING!

Ezra: FINE!

As Ezra shouts back at me, I storm out the apartment, slam the door and head for the stairs. Actually I'm running for the stairs and…

Ezra: What the hell was that?

As I lay on my side at the bottom of the stairs with blood on my head,mi hear the noise of running feet. I try to shout Ezra's name but all that comes out is a mumble.

Ezra: Aria!

As Ezra finally finds me, he runs down the stairs and actually starts to cry.

Ezra: I'm so sorry, this is all my fault.

Aria: It's ok, I'm sorry to, I shouldn't have stormed out like that.

Ezra: None of this s your fault. You need to go to hospital.

As Ezra stands up, he gets his phone out and dials 911.

911: Hello this is 911 what is your emergency?

Ezra's POV:

Ezra: Hello, it's my wife, she's 5 and a half months pregnant and she's fallen down a block of stairs.

911: ok sir, an ambulance is on its way. Whilst your waiting, try to keep her warm and keep her talking. It's vital that she stays awake.

Ezra: Ok.

911: The ambulance is on its way.

Ezra: a thank you, you've been very kind.

911: Happy to help, now go help your wife.

As I end the phone call, I tell Aria I'll be back in two seconds and I run back up the stairs to the apartment and fetch a blanket, Aria's favourite blanket. Then I run out the apartment again without closing the door and head back down the stairs, where the paramedics are already treating her.

Ezra: Please help my wife.

Paramedic: We are going to do everything we can, but we can't promise anything.

Ezra: Can I come in the ambulance with her?

Paramedic: Of course.

As we leave the block of flats with Aria lying on a stretcher wearing a neck brace, we get into the ambulance and Aria is strapped tightly in.

Ezra: I live you so much Aria, promise me you won't go.

I don't get a response as she is unconscious.

Paramedic: He body is going to start shutting down soon if we don't get to the hospital.

Ezra: What's wrong with her?

Paramedic: Well she has a suspected spinal injury, a broken ankle and a suspected brain injury. None of this is good for the baby. The baby has little chance of survival.

Ezra: This is all my fault.

Paramedic: What do you mean?

Ezra's POV:

Ezra: Well I was telling Aria that I've been offered a new job in England.

Paramedic: And…

Ezra: And she didn't take it too well, she stormed out of the apartment and fell down the stairs,

Paramedic: Congratulations on the job.

Ezra: That's not the point though, if I didn't tell her, none of this would have happened. I can't take the job.

Paramedic: How far are we from the hospital?

Driver: We are there now.

As we arrive at the hospital, they get Aria out and I'm still holding her hand.

Ezra: Aria, you're a fighter, you're my fighter, fight for our baby.

Paramedic: Please you can't go any further. You can wait in the waiting room and a nurse will update you whenever she can.

Ezra: Promise me she will be ok.

Paramedic: I can't promise that she will be ok, but I can promise that she is in safe hands.

Ezra: I LOVE YOU ARIA!

I still don't get a response even though she is now awake.

Nurse: Excuse me sir, is she your wife?

Ezra: Yes.

Nurse: Ok, the paramedics didn't give any information about her, could you fix that?

Ezra: Ok, where do you want me to start?

I ask this s as I walk up to the front desk and take a seat in a stool.

Nurse: Ok, first of all, what is her name?

Ezra: Aria Fitz.

Aria's POV:

Nurse: And how old is she?

Ezra: 25

Nurse: How far along is the pregnancy?

Ezra: 5 and ½ months.

Nurse: And lastly, how did this happen?

As she asks me this question, I have to stop for a moment. I have to take a deep breath in and then I realise that I am about to re-tell the whole story of how my wife nearly died.

Nurse: Sir, are you ok?

Ezra: I'm fine. Ok, she got home from a shopping trip with her friends and I told her I needed to talk to her about something.

Nurse: Go on.

Ezra: The news that I had to tell her was that I had been offered a new job in England.

Nurse: And.

Ezra: And she didn't take it well. We started to argue and she got so stressed that she ran out the apartment and fell down the stairs.

Nurse: thank you sir, you've been very helpful.

Ezra: Your welcome and please, call me Ezra,mor . What ever suits you best.

Nurse: Ok and we will keep you updated about Aria's condition.

I lay there thinking, why, why did I have to storm out, why did I do this!

Nurse 2: Aria, can you hear me?

As a nurse shines a bright light in my eyes, I blink rapidly. I try to move but I am held in place by straps.

Aria: Where am I? Where's Ezra? I want Ezra!

Nurse 2: Tour in the hospital and whoever Ezra is, then he will be in the waiting room probably.
