Aria's POV:
1 month later:
Telling Ezra what has been going on was the easy part, he's been super supportive about everything. I'm ecstatic that he didn't flip out at the news, but I'm not quite sure how my parents are going to react. I mean, do I even tell them? Maybe Ezra and I could move away somewhere and raise our baby there? Or do I tell my parents and have them kick me out of the house? This is the kind of questions that I have to sleep on and actually think about with Ezra.
Today is the day of my first doctor's appointment. I slept over Ezra's apartment that way he could be there for this intimate moment.
"Morning, beautiful." Ezra said while he walked into the kitchen area.
"Morning, handsome," I replied. Ezra poured a cup of coffee for the both of us and then came over to me. He pinned me against his counter, held onto my waist and kissed my lips softly.
"I love you." Ezra purred against my lips. I smiled up at him and wrapped my arms around his neck while he picked me up and placed me onto the counter, so we could continue our little love fest before breakfast.
"So, are you nervous about your doctor's appointment today?" Ezra asked while he set a plate of eggs on the coffee table in-front of me.
"Kind of, but not as much because you'll be with me." Ezra just smiled at me and started eating his breakfast.
"I can't thank you enough for being here for me. Honestly, I don't know if I would be able to raise this baby without you."
"So, you're deciding to keep it?" Ezra asked while he put his hand on my knee.
"I don't know, I'm leaning toward adoption, but I also thought about other possibilities."
"What other possibilities?"
"What if I didn't tell my parents about this pregnancy? I mean, we could go somewhere else and raise this baby, together. You could apply to colleges or high schools. I could stay home and take care of the baby until it's time for day care and I could get a part time job. This could be a real big step in our relationship!" I told him, kind of nervous about his answer.
"Aria, I would love that. But you can't leave your friends. What about school?"
"I could finish before the baby comes, or I could take classes online. We can find a way around this and not tell anyone about it!" I'm sure this is just the hormones talking, but I'm actually starting to consider this. It wouldn't be so bad to have a small family with Ezra. He would be a perfect father, and plus, I can't see myself with anyone else , but him.
"Aria, I can't let you do that. Let's just go to the doctor's appointment and tell your parents. I'm sure they won't be pleased, but they do have the right to know. If they do anything terrible, like kick you out, you can stay at my place and you can continue going to school."
I just nodded my head in agreement and then finished up my breakfast.
I was just about done getting ready for my doctor's appointment when Ezra came into the bathroom. "Hey, Aria?" He called.
"Yes?" I replied. "Do you mind if I meet you at the doctor's? I have to clean out my office. It'll only take a few."
"Yeah, sure. I have to go over Spencer's for a bit and review our project for my mom's class anyways." Ezra came more into the bathroom and kissed my lips while holding my waist.
"I love you. I'll see you in a few." He said before he kissed my forehead and left the apartment.
As I drove up Spencer's driveway, I found Spencer outside taking out the trash. I turned off my car and opened the door.
"Hey, Spence." I exclaimed. "Hey, Aria ! I thought you had an appointment?" She said, a little confused.
"Well, I do. But it's not for another hour. Plus Ezra has to clean out his office, so I thought I'd stop by and hang out before I had to leave." Spencer just nodded her head.
When we got inside Spencer's house, we went up to her bedroom. "So, how's the morning sickness?" Spencer asked me. "It's weird, I haven't had it in like two days. I usually have it everyday, though." "Well, you don't have to have it everyday. Maybe mother nature is giving you a little break until she brings you through hell once more." I just laughed, "That would be nice."
I stayed at Spencer's for about 30 minutes, and then I had to drive off to the doctor's.
The office was a little ways from Rosewood, but I couldn't go to my doctor's unless I wanted them to tell my mother about my situation.
I waited in my car for Ezra, but he didn't show up. But my appointment was in a few minutes, so I guess I have to go in alone.
I walked into the big building and took the elevator to the 5 floor. Every wall in this building was white and very boring, just like the dentist office. But the dentist didn't smell this horrible. Once I reached my destination, I sat in the waiting room to wait for my name to be called. There was quite a few pregnant mother's in the room, in a few months, that'll be me. Big stomach and a small height. Not the best combination.
"Aria Montgomery?" The nurse called out. I rose from my seat and walked towards the petite woman and followed her down several hallways until we reached a blue door. "Right in here," she said. "I'll need you to sit right up there," she pointed to a long table in the middle of the room. I nodded and obeyed her order. "Your doctor will be in with you shortly." She walked out of the door and shut the door.
I took my cellphone out of my bag and called Ezra. After a few rings, he answered.
"Hey, where are you?" I asked. "I'm still cleaning out my office. It's taking longer than I expected."
"Well, I'm at the doctor's and I'm freaking out." "Aria, just relax. I don't think I'm going to make it, I'll just have to go to the next appointment."
"Whatever," I said and hung up the phone before he could answer.
After a few more minutes, the doctor came in. "Hello, . My name is Dr. Bennett."
"Hello," I said in a small voice. "Do you know how far along you are?" asked me while he laid me down on the table and put some jell on my stomach.
"Uhm, I'm almost two months along." hooked me up to the ultrasound machine. He moved the tool around my stomach to try to get an image of the baby on the monitor. "Sometimes it's hard to get the image depending on how the baby is laying." I just nodded, wishing Ezra was here to be with me.
After a few minutes of trying to find the baby, nothing popped up on the screen. "Are you sure you're two months along?" The doctor asked.
"Well, I'll be two months of Friday, so technically no. But why? Is something wrong?"
The doctor was looking around the room, trying to avoid eye contact.
"I don't know why these things happen," he started to say, "but you're young, maybe in a few months, your partner and you could try again for another baby."
What is he saying? ..Is he saying that I'm not pregnant?
"Wait, what?" I asked, confused and trying to hold back tears. "I'm sorry, , you've had a miscarriage."
The room seemed like it was spinning, how could I have a miscarriage? I've been super careful with this baby. Also, how am I suppose to tell Ezra? I'm not even know how I'm suppose to react to all of this, I've never been pregnant and I most certainly never had a miscarriage before.
"I have to go.." I mumbled as I wiped this gross gel off my stomach and gathered my clothes into a big ball and headed out the door.
A few weeks later -
It's been a while since I figured out that I had a miscarriage, I never told Spencer nor Ezra. I don't want anyone to find out. They'll give me all of that sympathy crap that I don't need. Maybe if I actually get pregnant, Ezra won't find out..
I rushed over to Ezra's apartment before he got home, I set up candles all through-out the living room area and around his bed, I placed rose petals from the door, leading towards his bed as well. I found a black, sheer, lacy nightgown in Victoria Secrets with a matching push up bra and thong. When Ezra sees this, he's going to go wild. I heard his keys in the door, so I decided to go behind the door. When he opened it, all I heard was "What the?" and saw him go towards the couch to get a better view of the apartment. When Ezra's back was turned, I crept up behind him and covered his eyes with my hands.
"Ezra Fitz, are you ready for one hell of a night?" I seductively whispered into his ear. Ezra turned around and checked me out from head to toe.
"Is this beautiful women all for me?" Ezra said in a husky voice. "Only if you play your cards right." I said with a wink. Ezra took one step closer to me, settled one hand on my waist and another on my lower back. He kissed my lips tenderly and picked me up and propped me up on the back of his couch.
"I never knew pregnant women were this frisky," Ezra said, playfully. "Well, we want what we want, and we get what we get." "Shall we take this to the bed?" He said, suggestively.
"We shall."
After our little love encounter, Ezra and I cuddled up cozily with each other. Ezra had his arm wrapped around my waist and his other hand was brushed my brown locks out of my face.
"I love you so much, Aria Montgomery." Ezra whispered as he kept brushing my hair through his fingers.
"I love you, too, Ezra Fitz," I replied as I got on top of Ezra and laid my head down on his toned chest.
"I can't believe we're going to have our own little family in just a couple of months." Ezra said softly.
"Ezra .." I started to say. "I.."
"Aria, what is it? You should know by now that you can tell me anything, I'm always here for you when you need me."
My eyes started to tear up and within a few seconds, Ezra held me tighter and kissed my head. I got off of him so we were face to face. I tried to say the words, but they wouldn't come out, so I just started to cry even harder. "Aria, baby.." Ezra said as he brushed away my tears that have fallen down onto my cheeks.
"I had a miscarriage.." I finally said. Ezra's eyes grew wide and he pulled me onto his lap and wrapped his arms around me. "When did you find this out?" He asked. "At my doctor's appointment that you didn't go to." I replied.
"Aria, that was a few weeks ago and I'm just learning about this now?" He said, raising his voice.
"Please don't be mad at me! What was I suppose to do? You were so excited about having a baby with me, I didn't want to ruin that!"
"Save it, Aria!"
"Ezra, please! This is hard enough of me, I can't take losing our baby and you! It's all too much!" I tried explaining. Ezra pushed me off his lap as he got off the bed and gathered my clothes. Once everything was together, he threw my clothes at me.
"Get out. now." Ezra said, emphasizing on the 'now.'
"Ezra!" I said as my voice cracked. He just pointed to the door.
I got my clothes on quickly, almost stumbling as I tried putting my jeans on, but Ezra didn't seem to care. All he wanted was me to get out.
It seems like the weather agrees with him as well, I screwed up, so it's being a bitch and started down pouring and thundering. Once I was full clothed, I grabbed my bag and pushed past Ezra and slammed the door behind me. I was half tempted to go back, but I heard Ezra lock the door. Everything happened so fast, one minute we were loving and the next we were fighting. My tears started pouring down my face once again, I just put my back against the wall and cried for a good ten minutes until I got my act together and stormed out of the apartment building in the pouring rain.
The traffic seemed to get faster as I walked to my car, everything started spinning and spacing out of control. The next thing I knew I was on the ground and everything went black.
