Ezra was waiting in the waiting room when Ella, Bryon, and Mike ran up to him. Hours had passed since the incident and Aria was now in surgery. The attack had left her baby in distress so the doctors had to do some emergency surgery to try and save the baby's life.

"Ezra how is my baby?" Ella asked in tears.

"I don't know yet, the baby wasn't doing very well so they had to do some emergency surgery to make sure they didn't have to deliver right now."

Just then a doctor came out and walked over to Ezra.

"Ezra Fitz?"

"Yes sir?"

"Miss Montgomery and the baby should be fine. We still need to give them about 24 hours just to make sure but when she is released she will need to be on bed rest for the rest of her pregnancy. Her pregnancy is very high risk right now and I am very worried at this point in time."

"When can I see her?" Ezra asked.

"You may go in now, she may still be a little woozy from the surgery but she should be fine. And she said that whenever her parents got here to send them in as well."

With that Ezra, Byron, Ella, and Mike all went down the hall to her room. When they got to the door they couldn't help but see how sad she looked. She had a monitor hooked up to her swollen stomach, oxygen connected to her, iv's running all over the place, and a cast on her left wrist which they assumed was from fighting off Brad.

"Hey beautiful." Ezra said walking in and taking her hand.

"Hey you." She said with a smile. "Mom, Dad, and Mike I'm so glad you are here. I don't think I could get through this without you." Aria said with tears forming in her eyes.

"Oh baby we came as soon as Ezra called us on when you were on your way to the hospital. I can't believe your surgery lasted that long though."

"It didn't mom, they thought I was fine when I started to have complications. I'm just so glad the baby is fine." Aria said putting her hand on her stomach.

"Us too honey." Her mom said. "I think we will let you two alone for a few minutes besides the girls will be here soon."

With that her parents left the room, mike then walked over and hugged his sister.

"I'm so glad you are okay and my little niece or nephew I was already making plans on spoiling them." Mike said before leaving the room.

"Ezra I should have listened to you about Brad. I mean if I had I would have never be here in the first place and would have never had put my child's life in danger."

"Aria it wouldn't have mattered, he would have made a way to find out where you were and he would have come after you no matter what. I am just glad that I wasn't able to go back home and I decided to come and see you or else things wouldn't have turned out this way."

"How did my parents get here if it snowed so bad?"

"Well apparently the bad storm went north of here so they didn't run into bad weather until about 45 minutes from here."

"Ezra they said I get to find out the sex of the baby whenever I want to. Do you think I should? I mean I still don't know if I am putting it up for adoption or not." Aria said with tears running down her face.

"Aria if you decided to keep it I will help you as I know your family and friends will as well." Ezra said laying his hand on her stomach. He then felt something and quickly jerked away.

"Ezra did you feel it kick? It must really like you, it's okay to touch." Aria said laughing.

Ezra then put his hand on her stomach again and felt her put hers overtop of his hand. They stayed like that for a few minutes until they heard someone walk in. They both looked over to see Hanna, Emily, and Spencer walk in and run over to Aria.

"Aria how are you?" Hannah yelled.

"I'm doing better, it's going to be a rough next 4 months but we'll get through it." Aria said.

"We will be here for you whenever you need us; it's not that far of a drive. Well when it's not a blizzard outside." Spencer told her.

"Yeah whatever you need just let us know." Emily said.

"Thanks guys you have no idea what that means to me because I won't be able to do anything till I have this baby." Aria said when a nurse walked in.

"Miss Montgomery if you would like we can find out the sex of the baby." The nurse told her bringing in a monitor.

"I would love to be can you get my parents and brother first?"

"Of course I will be right back." The nurse said before leaving the room.

"What do you want?" Hanna asked.

"After tonight I just want it to be healthy."

The nurse soon came back with Ella, Byron, and Mike close behind her. They all came in and gathered around the hospital bed. The nurse put some gel on Aria's stomach and adjusted the monitor.

"Well Miss Montgomery I believe you are going to have a girl. Congratulations." The nurse said before wiping Aria's stomach and leaving the room.

Aria then began to cry. She wasn't sure why though she still didn't know if she was going to keep the baby but she knew that if she did she would have the seven greatest people to help her ever.

"Aria honey what's wrong?" He mother bent down and wiped away her tears.

"I just don't know what I am going to do. Part of me wants to keep the baby but the other part of me doesn't want to be reminded of what Brad did to me every day of my life."

"Aria I know that I wasn't that supportive of you when you first told me about adoption but no matter what I will be here for you. I want you to be happy but you don't have to decide now you still have 4 more months." Ezra told her taking her hand.

"I know and I want to thank all of you guys for being here for me it means more then you will ever know to come here from Rosewood. How long are you staying?"

"Your father, Mike, and I are staying for about a week we need to get things all figured out since you will be on bed rest for the rest of your pregnancy." Ella told Aria.

"We have class Monday but that still gives us a few days to spoil you and make fun of you and Fitzy." Hanna told Aria. Which made Aria laugh and Ezra blush.

"Man thanks Hanna I don't know if I want you to stay or not now." Aria joked.

The rest of the night they all talked and got caught up on things. No one brought up the day's events which Aria was very thankful for she was just happy to sit and not have to worry about anything. She didn't know what would happen when she left the hospital because she knew she couldn't stay in the dorm by herself, but she wasn't ready to leave Ezra and go back to Rosewood either. Aria put all of that out of her mind and just focused on the time at hand the laughs that her friends and family were all sharing and the fact that she didn't even have to hide the fact that she and Ezra were holding hands. Even though the day had been one of the worst days of her life she was grateful for the time she was spending right now.
