To make things worse, Ezra walked in right after Jason. Fixing his tie and jacket not paying attention and running smack into Jason.
"Oh, Jason I'm sorry about that" Ezra says awkwardly.
"Ezra." Jason turns around and nods before placing the baby bathtub on the table next to him.
"What are you doing here?" I ask.
"Well, you asked me to come?" Ezra questions.
"Not you. Him." I accuse, Ezra puts his hands up surrendering.
"I took Leah to your mom's house last week and she was working on some of the decorations, I just assumed that they were for you." He tells me. I cross my arms and ok at my mom. "Look, I didn't come to stay long I just wanted to bring you this," he gestures toward the bathtub. "And maybe invite you to have dinner sometime soon?" Jason continues.
"For what?" I say with attitude.
"I don't know Aria, to talk about things. We should figure everything out before she get here," he gestures towards my stomach. "She doesn't deserve to have parents who don't communicate with each other," he continues.
"You're right she doesn't. That's why I've decided to raise her with Ezra." I say as I walk over to Ezra wrapping my arms around his waist.
"What?" Emily and Hanna both say.
"Excuse me?" Jason questions. "Ezra is not her father, and Leah doesn't deserve this either. Or are you forgetting about her?"
"Jason I'm not talking to you about this right now," I say, burring my face into Ezra's side.
"That's what I'm trying to do!" Jason exclaims.
"Jason I'm sorry, but I think you should leave." My mom butts in, wiping her hands on a towel.
"I will, once Aria agrees that we need to figure this out together. Then I will happily leave, so no one makes a scene."
"I'll call you later." I interrupt.
"Perfect." He says, pushing his hands in his pockets.
There's a minute of awkward silence before I remember, "Can I still have Leah tonight?" I question Jason.
"It depends." He says rocking back on his heels.
"On what?" I ask.
"On if you call me or not. If we decide on a plan for when Piper gets here." He tells me.
"I'm going to call you, but I don't think I should be kept away from my daughter. And we are not naming her Piper." I retaliate.
"Whatever Aria. You walked out on me remember?" He says with anger.
"Whoa whoa whoa, Jason, Aria will call you later, but this is not the time or place for this. She's going through a lot right now, the last thing she needs is you to rip your daughter away from her mother. You know that that isn't fair to Leah. If you would like, I will pick Leah up from you later and bring her back to you tomorrow afternoon." My mother cuts in and tells Jason.
"That's really great of you Ella and I guess you're right, but Aria has to promise me that she will call me later so that we can figure this whole thing out."
"Deal." I cut in and say, "Now will you please go." I continue.
"I will come and pick up Leah around 6, sound good?" My mother asks him.
"Yeah, that should be fine. But, I don't want her staying at Ezra's. The last thing I want is to pull her routine of her schedule, her surroundings."
"That's understandable. I'll talk with Aria and we will figure something out. I promise you that Leah will be staying at my house tonight." My mother continues. I roll my eyes, he is ridiculous.
Jason begins to walk out of the room, "Spencer, Hanna, Emily." He nods.
The three smile. But you can tell that the tension in the room has reached a whole new level of awkward.
