A/N: Thanks for the reviews! Here's the final chpt!Enjoy!
Thanksgiving
Aria opened the oven door, checking on the turkey once again. She sighed heavily as she closed it, and threw her oven mitt on the counter. She suddenly felt two strong arms wrap around her waist and soft kisses along her neck.
"Aria. Dinner isn't until another three hours. No one is coming until then. You can relax for a bit." Ezra said.
"You know how I am, I just want everything ready and settled." Aria replied, turning around and wrapping her arm around his neck.
"I know. But it's only three. You can relax."
"I guess you're right."
"Course I am." Ezra replied with a smirk. "And you know a good way to pass time?" Ezra asked suggestively.
"Do tell." Aria played along.
Instead of replying, he started kissing her. A long and passionate kiss. Soon he started going down her neck.
"Ezra, maybe not now."
"We still have a lot of time." Ezra replied not detaching his lips from her neck.
"Well, I need a shower." Aria smiled pulling away.
She started walking away and turned back when she didn't see Ezra behind her.
"Well? Aren't you coming?" Aria laughed softly.
Ezra instantly ran behind her, picking her up and spinning her, making her squeal. Soon they were both in the shower and boy was it a long one.
"Sophie, Sadie!" Aria called. "Did you girls finish getting dressed?"
"Yes Mommy." Sophie smiled coming down the stairs.
"Look how pretty I look" Sadie exclaimed.
"You both look beautiful." Ezra smiled coming in from the kitchen.
"Mommy when's everybody coming?"
"Um" Aria checked the time. "They should be here soon."
"Why don't you girls come with Daddy and help me set the table?"
Both girls nodded and followed him. Just when Aria was about to sit, she heard soft whimpers coming from the playpen. She walked over and Tyler was already sitting up, rubbing his eyes and holding his arms up.
"Hey there buddy." Aria cooed. "Did you have a nice nap?"
Tyler only replied by resting his head in the crook of Aria's neck.
"Come on. Let's go help Daddy."
As Aria started to walk towards the kitchen, the doorbell rang. Aria walked over and opened it to reveal Wes standing outside.
"Hey Aria." Wes greeted her with a hug. "Hey there buddy." Wes cooed taking him from Aria.
"Come in. Ezra and the girls are setting up."
Aria had just shut the door when she heard the doorbell ring again. She opened it and gave the person behind the door a welcoming smile.
"Hello Aria. How are you?"
"I'm great. How are you feeling?" Aria asked, shutting the door behind her.
"You know, I'm getting there."
"That's good to hear." Aria smiled. "Girls! Look who's here."
Sophie and Sadie soon came running out, smiling when they spotted who had arrived.
"Uncle Wes! Grandma!" They both ran giving them each a hug.
"Hey there." Wes replied.
"Grandma, are you doing better?" Sophie asked.
"Yes sweetie. Thanks for asking. It means a lot." Dianne smiled giving her forehead a gentle kiss.
"Mom, hey." Ezra came in giving his Mom and hug.
"Hey sweetie." Dianne replied, giving him a kiss on the cheek.
After they thought they'd lost Dianne forever, the doctors tried their best and succeeded in bringing her back. She did all in her power to pay for her mistakes and to gain forgiveness from all who'd she hurt. Now, she was on good terms with both her sons and Aria. The girls and Tyler were slowly starting to bond with their new grandma.
"So when are we gonna eat?" Sadie asked.
"Soon sweetie." Aria laughed.
Within less than twenty minutes, the Fitz household was filled with family and friends. Hanna and her family, Spencer and her newborn daughter, Emily and Paige, her parents, Mike, all the people Aria cared about, were there to celebrate this day with them. Soon everyone was gathered around the very long dinner table they'd set up. They each gave small speeches about something they were thankful and just enjoyed that time they spent together. Soon though, it grew dark and everyone left leaving their little family alone. Sophie, Tyler, and Sadie were watching TV curled up on the couch while Aria and Ezra finished up cleaning up. Once they were done they took a seat beside their kids.
"What do you say we all watch a movie?" Ezra asked.
Both girls nodded with excitement. Soon Ezra put in the movie and they all sat there watching. Before the movie ended, all three Fitz children were fast asleep. Tyler was lying on Aria's lap, while Sophie and Sadie, each cuddled into Ezra's sides. Ezra leaned over and careful not to wake his daughter, placed his arm around Aria.
"I love you Aria." Ezra confessed. "So much."
"I love you more." Aria smiled.
"No. I love you forever and always."
"Well I love you forever and always and to the moon and back." Aria continued.
Ezra was silent, knowing that if he kept going they would never end, and most importantly, Aria would win anyways.
"See. I always win." Aria smirked.
"Seriously though, these past months have been rough, but I'll always love you. Thank you for being the perfect wife, for giving me the perfect family. I love you so much and I'm thankful for all you've done and given me."
"Ok, maybe you win this time." Aria replied, a few tears of happiness in her eyes.
Ezra leaned over and gave her a soft and gentle kiss. It was short, as they both knew if they allowed it to go any longer it would lead to something they couldn't do with their daughters in their arms. Instead she just snuggled closer to him and kept on watching the movie. Aria and Ezra weren't perfect. No one is. They had their ups and downs in their relationships, they had the best time of their lives and experienced the worst. They reached their Edge of breaking down but managed to get through everything. And they learned that no matter what may happen in the future or what obstacles are thrown their way, they'll always make it through because they'll always have each other.
