Ezra...

"Are you okay," I asked as she made her way out of the bathroom

"Yeah, I just felt sick for a while there" and she gave me a half-hearted smile "I'm just going to go home"

"Are you sure," I asked very much concerned "Do you want me to drive you there"

"No, I can drive" she picked up her bag and headed toward the door " I love you, Ezra I'll see you tomorrow okay," and she gave me a peck on the cheek

"I love you, Too Aria." I told her " call me tonight to let me know how you're feeling okay" she nodded

Aria...

Before I made my way home, I stopped off at the drug store. I wanted to pick up a pregnancy test, and pray to god I'm not pregnant. It's just to soon to behaving another baby, I want to be able to enjoy my life for a bit, before bringing another child into this world. "I love, Ezra but could we handle another child" just the thought of actually having a child with Ezra, put a smile on my face. Of course we could handle it. We're madly in love and of course we fight a lot, But it just makes us stronger. "I wonder how he would feel, he all ready thinks of Johnathan as his own" so why not bring another child into this world.

I pulled up to the drug store and parked my car, walking inside I saw the store clerk this old-man smiling at me. I walked to the middle aisle where the test we're "wow, so many different kinds," I stood there for a while before picking two up, I wanted to make sure.

"Expecting one Miss," The clerked asked with a smile

"I'm not sure yet" I smiled

"well, pregnant or not you're young and have plenty of time"

he rung me up and told me to have a good night, I made my way toward my car when I saw Jason, I immediately shoved the bag into my purse as he made his way toward me

He smiled and waved "Aria, how are you doing" He asked

"I'm great," I responded"just getting some much-needed girl items''

"Oh, that's nice" he trailed off... "So, am I able to see my son," he asked

"Of course Jason, I would never keep him from you" I told him

"But you did, For three years now" he yelled

"And that was a mistake, I should have told you sooner." I told him

"Yeah, well you've done a lot of those lately"

"Jason, not now okay" I told him and made my way toward my car, taking the keys out of my pocket I unlocked the door and he grabbed my arm

"we, have to talk" Jason said with So much anger in his voice

"you're hurting me, I yelled" getting scared of what he was going to do next " you're drunk let go of me" I started to try, to fight him off but he was to strong for me, so I started yelling for help, soon after the clerk came out. Yelling something on long the lines of he had called the police and there on their way, but it was too late Jason had already smacked me in the face and pushed me to the ground.

"miss," the store clerked yelled trying to keep me awake but I just kept on blacking out.

The next thing I knew I'm being lifted into the ambulance and being rushed to the hospital, when everything went dark

Ezra...

Aria, seemed a little off when she left tonight. I'm hoping everythingokay, She should have been home by now. So I tried calling her, it rang a few times before hitting her voice box " Hi, This is Aria sorry I'm unable to answer your call right now, leave a message and I'll get back to you", I sighed "Babe, please call me back I'm worried about you, I love you"

"Where is she," I yelled to myself and tried calling her again. At this point I've called her like twenty times, and they all went to voice mail, so I ended up calling Ella.

"Hello" Ella answered on the third ring

"Ella, this is Ezra" I told her

"Hey, Ezra how are you?" she asked

"I'm worried, is Aria home"I asked my voice a little shaky

"No, she's not" concerned in her voice, of course what mother wouldn't be, if your daughter wasn't home it was getting close to mid-night." Ezra, what's wrong"

"I don't know she left around 8:30, and she was feeling sick. And she told be she was going home" I said in a rush breath

"I'm sorry, Ezra hold on" Ella told me, I heard the house phone ring, so I'm guessing that's where she went. It felt like she put me on hold for hours but in fact it was only a couple of minutes before I heard her scream out in fear.

"Ella, Ella" I yelled into the receiver " Ella, what's wrong" in that moment my heart just dropped

"Ezra, Aria's in the hospital, meet us there okay" Ella said, on the other end of the phone. But by the time she had finished her sentence, I was out the door and in my car. Oh, god please let Aria be okay.

It took me about twenty minutes to get there, I pulled into a spot and parked the car. I ran into the hospital and up to the front desk, "AriaMontgomery," I said in a short of breath kind of way

"Excuse, me" the nurse asked

"I'm sorry, I'm looking for Aria Montgomery" I told her slower this time so she'll understand me

"And are you part of the family," she asked

"Yes, I am. I'm her husband" I told her, okay I knew I lied but at this point I just wanted to get in there and find out what happen

"Okay, she's in room 312"

"Thank you," and with that I ran up to the elevator, dang this thing takes so long. By the time I made it up to her room the doctor was just coming out.

"Hi, I'm Ezra Fitz" I shook the doctor's hand " Aria's husband"

"Hello Mr. Fitz" He told me "I'm Doctor Silva"

"How is she" I asked

"She's doing better a little dehydrated, she was hit pretty hard across the face. But now she's sleeping, you can go in and see her."

"Thank you" I told him and made my way in the room, I Stood by the door as I watched Aria lay there, peacefully sleeping. until in dawned on me, the doctor said she was hit pretty hard across the face. Anger washed over me, "who the hell hit her".

just then Ella and Byron, came running into the room." Sorry we took so long," Ella spoke as she stood on the left side of Aria," I had to wake up Ashley Marin, so Johnathan didn't have to be here for this"

"What the hell happen" Byron asked

"I don't know"I said "when I got here the doctor was just coming out, he said someone hit her" I told them a lonetear fell down my cheek. I turned my head to Aria, and picked up her right hand while giving it a soft kiss, Byron came next to me.

"Don't worry Ezra, she'll be okay. Aria's strong"

"By the way Ezra, How did you get in here. This floor is for family only" Ella asked

I smiled and lifted up my head toward Ella, " I told them I was Aria's husband, and if they were to ask why we had different last names, I just would of just made something up"

"Well, that would do it" Byron said and patted me on the back

Just then the doctor came in, "I'm Doctor, Silva you must beMr. and Mrs. Montgomery, I'm so sorry for interrupting. But I just wanted to let you know that we'll be keeping Aria, here for the night we just wanted to run a few more test before sending her home."

"Anything else," Byron asked

"yes, I also have to tell you that, the store clerk, he caught everything on video and they have a clear view of who did this. The police is right outside, when you're ready."

"thank you" Byron, Ella and myself said at the same time

"I'll go talk to the police, you guys stay here okay" Byron said as he made his way out the door. He's been out there for all of ten minutes when he started to yell out

"I'm going to kill that son of a BITCH"

Ezra, stood up and walked out into the hallway, "what happen, do they know who did this"

"JASON" was all Byron yelled out...
