Chapter 25: Back in Philly

They went to Philly the next Monday. It was a beautiful sunny day and Aria felt better than every. She was in a good mood and just enjoyed the trip. They were supposed to go and visit doctor Martin on the next day, therefore they thought spending the night in Philly was a good idea. That day was saved for Ezra though. he was supposed to go and fill few papers at his new job. She felt happy for him. His happiness was one of the most important things for her. She didn't even try to hide her smile every time she was looking at him. Finally, she could do that openly and without hiding. There was a time she was afraid to even look at him, but not now.

"What are you thinking?" Ezra looked at her. "You have that smile on your face."

"That smile?"

"Yeah," he rubbed her thigh for a moment and then focused back on the road. "The smile that I love."

"How many smiles do I have?" Aria stared at him, chuckling.

"Ah," he shook his head, teasing her. "They are so many."

"Got it," Aria sighed and leaned back on her seat, still smiling. "I was thinking about your interview. You know, we should go and check our apartment. When do you want to move in?"

"As soon as the work there is done," he looked at her briefly. "And when you feel ready. We don't have to hurry that much."

"And what are we going to do with your apartment in Rosewood?" Aria looked at him.

"I was thinking I should rent it?" He shrugged. "I don't know."

"So you wanna keep it then?" She chuckled.

"Yeah," Ezra gave her a look. "Too many good memories."

"Yeah," Aria smiled. "I'd love that."

They got to their hotel early and Ezra made sure that she was in the bed, before could go out for his meeting. Aria gave him a smile and turned on the TV in their room. She wished him luck and gave him a kiss. As soon as he left she felt tired enough to fall asleep. It was amusing how much she slept these days. It was normal though, because now she had to take care of two. She had accepted that already and she didn't mind. When she woke up, it was the last afternoon and she was hungry. She called for some food and then went back to bed, watching some movie.

Few minutes later somebody knocked on the door and she thought that her food was arriving. She went to open with a smile, but that smile froze on her face.

"I didn't know my son is here with a company," Dianne walked into the room, wearing her expensive blue dress and her shining diamonds. Aria closed the door after her with a sigh. "Where is he?" She turned around to look at Aria.

"He's going to be here any moment," Aria walked to Ezra's mother, rubbing her forehead. "What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to see my son," Dianne looked around.

"He doesn't want to see you," Aria didn't even blink. She just stood there. "Again, what are you doing here?"

"I've heard he's moving back to Philadelphia," Dianne answered her. "I wanted to check if that's the truth."

"You know damn well it is!" Aria crossed her arms in front of her chest. She was wearing a short dress today. It was with a V-neck and loosened around her waist. Ezra really loved it. He told her it brings out her eyes. But right now, that same dress, underlined her pregnancy. When Aria crossed her arms on her chest, her protuberant belly became obvious.

"I can't believe this!" Dianne had noticed it as well. Her voice lowered. "You are pregnant?"

"It's none of your business!" Aria scoffed.

"When it comes to my son it is my business!" Dianne insisted. "What do you think you're doing?"

"Excuse me?" Aria's temper was about to show up.

"It's all about the money, isn't it?" Dianne thought that she had everything figure it out. "When you found out that he has money..."

"What?!" Aria couldn't believe to her ears. "Are you serious? You think I've planned all this?"

"Why not?" Dianne walked to Aria, but the young girl didn't step back. "Every woman in Ezra's life only cared about his money!"

"You are delusional!" Now Aria was already pissed. "I can't see why he doesn't want to have anything to do with you!"

"Am I wrong?" Dianne stared at her. "Just think about his former girlfriends."

"What you did was wrong, Dianne!" Aria narrowed her eyes. "What you've done with his life is wrong! We both know that it's not about the money here! I've started dating your son long before I knew he's a Fitzgerald!" She clenched her fists and hung her arms at the both sides of her body. "You wanted me out of his life since day one! Why?"

"Did you or did you not ruined his career?" Dianne tilted her head. "Just tell me!"

"Stop it, mother!" Ezra's voice surprised them and they looked at the door. He looked angry. "What are you doing here? And who the hell told you that you can talk to Aria like that?"

"I'm telling the truth!" Dianne scoffed.

"Your truth, maybe!" Ezra went to Aria and placed his palm on the middle of her back. "I told you to stay away!"

"You didn't tell me that she's pregnant!"

"Why should I?" He snarled. "I don't want my family to have anything to do with you! Get it? I won't let my child even near you!"

"Ezra..."

"Oh, it hurts!" Aria hissed in that moment and he looked at her quickly.

"Hurts where?" Ezra took her into his arms and carried her to the bed.

"Everywhere," she hissed. He took a small pillow from the nearest couch and shoved it under her waist.

"You should feel better soon," he touched her face. "Don't worry about it, okay?"

"Okay," Aria nodded and took a deep breath. Her body relaxed and she looked at him. "Feeling better now."

"Good," he smiled and leaned to kiss her. "I'll deal with my mother and I'll be back shortly."

"Okay," she nodded again and Ezra left the bedroom.

His mother was still there. Her face hadn't changed. She was looking annoyed even and that angered him even more. A slight frown appeared on his face. Dianne was never going anywhere without a reason. She must have known that he would be in Philly that day. She had her sources, but Ezra was way too pissed and way too worried to deal with her right now.

"What do you want from me, mother?" He sighed and she looked at him. "I thought I told you what I want."

"Yes, you did." Dianne walked to him, but Ezra put his hands up and she stopped. "I just thought that you've changed your mind. When I found out that you're moving back to Philly, I thought..."

"What?" He interrupted her. "That you can control my life again?"

"That you'd be happy to go back to your family," she frowned.

"My family is in that room," he nodded at the bedroom where Aria was. "So, I am with my family, thank you."

"I thought..."

"Goodbye, mother!" He opened the door and waited until she walked out of the room. "I don't want to see you near Aria... ever again!"

"But Ezra..."

He slammed the door before her face and took a moment to gather his self control again. Then he took a deep breath and put a smile on his face, going back to Aria's room. To their room.
