Aria & Ezra's

Ezra was in the kitchen getting his travel mug filled with coffee so he could leave. He heard the footsteps of his girlfriend come down the stairs. He met her halfway and saw her cradling their sleeping one and a half month old daughter. "Are you going to school today?" He whispered.

"Yea, I'll be there." Aria said rubbing her daughter's back.

"Alright, drive carefully, please." Ezra said and kissed her and then kissed the side of his daughter's head.

"Always,"

"Be good for Mommy Isabella." He told his sleeping daughter and went to leave.

Aria continued into the kitchen and opened the fridge to get her breakfast. She put the milk on the counter and went to grab a box of cereal from the cabinet. Her phone started ringing in her pocket.

She quickly reached into her pocket and looked at the caller id before answering it so it didn't disturb Isabella's sleep. "Hey Han," She spoke quietly into the phone.

"Baby sleeping?" Hanna asked.

"Yep. Fell asleep in my arms again." Aria said and rested the phone against her shoulder so she had her one hand back. "What can I do for you preggers?"

"I just wanted to rant to somebody. So, I picked you since you were pregnant first." Hanna said on the other line.

"Morning sickness?" Aria questioned as she poured the cereal into the bowl.

"Yes. And I hate it."

"Sip water. And don't eat a lot of food at a time. Small portions."

Spencer& Toby's

"Spence," Toby said lightly shaking her shoulder.

"Hmm." Spencer mumbled into the pillow.

"Time to wake up, babe." He said and kissed her cheek. He rubbed her arm. "Come on early bird. School awaits you."

"I'll pass." Spencer said rolling over and pulling the comforter over her head.

"Spencer, did I just hear you right? You don't want to go to school? You always want to go to school. You even went when you were having terrible morning sickness. You wanted to go the day after you gave birth to Harper. It's the Hastings in you." Toby said as he pulled the comforter off.

"I know. I'm just not in the mood."

"Alright, I guess there is a first for everything." He said and got off the bed. He walked down the hall to check on Harper before going downstairs.

He heard footsteps coming down the stairs and smiled to himself.

"You're right. I have to go to school." Spencer said as she entered the kitchen. "I never miss school for stupid reasons." She went over to the fridge to get something to drink. "Are you going to be okay with Harper?" She asked as she pulled the orange juice out.

"We'll be fine. I've got her schedule down to a t. And she's only a week old."

Spencer laughed. "That's because you are such a great Daddy."

Hanna& Caleb's

Hanna walked downstairs and went into the kitchen. She went to get her books off the counter. "Caleb! Don't forget that you have to go over to Spencer's and watch Harper for a little bit until Spence gets home."

"I know. I was going to head over a little earlier so Toby could make it to work a little earlier." He said walking into the kitchen.

"Can I have a small sip?" Hanna asked referencing to his cup of coffee.

"Small." He said handing it over to her.

"I don't want more than a small sip." She went to drink it, but stopped with her lip on it. She pulled it away. "Never mind. If I take even the smallest sip I'll still want more. I want to ignore caffeine the whole time." She passed the cup back to him and turned to the fridge. She pulled out a Sprite and took her bag of books off the counter. "See you later." She said and gave him a kiss.

"See you." Caleb said and watched her leave.

Emily& Samara's

Music blared through the speakers of the sound system in the living room. Samara had left for work an hour ago and Emily had no classes today. Emily took advantage of her extra time that wasn't taken over by her schoolwork to tidy the house up a bit. She didn't want either of her friends' kids getting sick when they came over. Plus since she can't exactly go outside in their pool she had to keep herself entertained.

Emily danced around the house as she cleaned. She had the music too loud so she didn't hear the doorbell ring or hear the door open. She turned around to put the dishes she had just taken out of the dishwasher away. She jumped when she turned, almost dropping the dishes.

"Mom! You scared me!" Emily exclaimed.

"Sorry Em," Pam said. "I rang the doorbell, but the music is a little loud." She said loud enough to be heard.

"Right," Emily said putting the dishes down and going to turn the music down. She walked back in the kitchen. "So, what's up?" She asked as she went back to putting the dishes away.

"I just came by to see what you were up to on your day off from school." Pam said sitting on one of the stools.

"Oh, just cleaning. Since I can't go outside and swim." Emily said as she closed the cabinet. "Aria is supposed to be dropping off Isabella soon. So, I'll have her until 4ish."

"They don't have an official sitter?" Pam asked.

"Aria doesn't want one. She doesn't like the idea of a person in her house that she hasn't known for too long. So, I offer to watch her when I'm not doing anything because I know how she is and how she doesn't like her being surrounded by all those kids at daycare either." Emily said as she finished loading the dish washer.

"Oh," Pam stated. "So, would going for lunch be an issue?"

"No, not at all. We can go for lunch if you want." Emily said as the doorbell rang. She dried her hands with a towel and then went to answer the door. "Hey Ar," Emily greeted.

"Hey," Aria said as she went inside so the cold didn't fill the house. "Thanks for watching her.

"Not a problem." Emily said as she followed Aria into the living room.

"I went in your car, so you don't freak out." Aria said laughing. "Should really lock your doors." She put the car seat down on the couch and pushed the bar back. "I put the base in there so you can go wherever you please. Except out of state."

Emily laughed. "Don't worry. We will stay in Pennsylvania."

"Good." Aria smiled. "I got to get going before I'm late. Bye Isabella. I love you." She said and kissed her forehead. Aria placed the bag next to the couch. "Thanks again Em."

"Anytime Aria."

So, first off sorry I haven't uploaded in awhile. And I hope you liked the chapter.

Now, I have a good question. I want to know who you would like to see Melissa with. I'm leaning toward Wren, because he would make the most sense to me. But I am willing to work in a weird way of Garrett getting out of jail if the majority goes to Garrett.

Also, with Wren should his last name be Kim like it is in the books or Kingston like it is in the show?

Review and let me now what you think.
