Aria's POV

When we got home Lily and Wyatt came running into the room. They were so excited to see their new baby brother. There was a bad flu going around so they weren't allowed to come into the hospital so this was the first time that they had met James.

"Is it a boy?!"

"Is it a girl?!" They asked simultaneously. I nodded towards Wyatt.

"This is James," I said as Wyatt stroked James cheek. I could see Wyatt and James rough housing and Lily looking on and rooting for her little brother. I was so happy to see how much they loved James. I put James in his crib and sat down on the large chair in the corner of the room. Then James began to cry. I sighed in annoyence, it was the first downtime I had in a week. As I picked up James, Ezra told Wyatt to take his sister downstairs to watch TV. Wyatt reluctantly took Lily's hand and led her down the stairs. I looked over at Ezra in wonderment.

"Why did you do that?" I asked in shock.

"Aria," he said standing up, "whats wrong?" I looked at him confused as he took James out of my arms, going over to the little fridge we had in there. He warmed up the milk as he explained.

"Aria, what are you doing? With Wyatt and Lily you were never annoyed like this, why are you wound so tight, it's like your annoyed at James even though I know it's because you're just so tired, but please don't take it out on him. We're all tired, I know how you feel."

"You know how I feel?!" I screamed. "YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW I FEEL! EVERY TIME I LOOK AT JAMES I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER WHAT-" before I could finish I was wrapped in Aaron's arms, with James in between him. When I looked down at James I was horrified by what I felt. I didn't feel anything except for regret and sadness. I began to cry, sobs racked my small frame. Ezra kissed the top of my head. He was so nice to me. I don't know why.

"I just...I just wonder what the other baby would be like, if it was a girl or boy, if it was going to be okay?" I cried out taking James from his arms.

Ezra's POV

"Hanna," I said over the phone, "Aria needs your help, I don't know what it is...but I think she needs her friends." I heard her yell something to her daughter, and came back to the conversation.

"Mr. Fitz, when should I come? Can I bring Sarah?" She asked.

"We've known each other for 10 years, you can call me Ezra."

"Ok...Ezra..."

"Can you call the other girls?" I asked.

"Em is in the Bahamas, but I can call Spencer, she might have to bring her kids though."

"That's fine. The more the merrier. Can you come Saturday?"

"Of course. I'll be there. Bye Mr. Fit- I mean Ezra."

"Bye."


When I walked into the nursery I saw Aria watching Lily hold James. They were sitting on the rug we had so painstakingly picked out from the store. All the sudden the doorbell rung and I went into the bathroom so that I made sure she answered the door. I left it open a crack and I saw that Aria got up (which took a lot of effort) she made her way to the door, when she went down the stairs I came out of the bathroom just in time to see Hanna and Spencer wrapping their arms around her as Aria screamed in delight. She saw Hanna's daughter Sarah behind the them and Toby holding his 7 month old and his hand on his son Marco's shoulder.

"Oh my gosh!" She said hugging Sarah and Marco, "You guys got so big!"

"I just turned 6!" Marco said, smiling a semi-toothless smile. Then she looked over to the blonde girl in Toby's arms.

"You must be Marion!" Aria exclaimed taking Marion into her arms, "Hi!" The girl smiled and continued to suck on her pacifier.

"This is the first time you met Marion right?" Spencer asked. Aria looked at her and nodded.

"I've been meaning to come to Rosewood to meet her!" Aria said looking to me. I nodded. I came over to Toby and gave him a hug. I saw Aria look at Hanna who now had her daughter in her arms. Sarah reminded me so much of Caleb, but I couldn't bring it up. Caleb had left when Hanna got pregnant with Sarah. He said he just wasn't ready. It took Hanna years to get over it.

All the kids ran off to play together. Marco with Wyatt, Sarah with Lily and Spencer put Marion down for a nap in the nursery with James. Soon I was with Toby in the kitchen as Hanna and Spencer sat with Aria.

"Why are you guys here?" Aria asked her friends.

"We need to talk."
