"Aria, my dad has cancer!" Ezra screamed at Aria.

"Ezra, stop yelling at me. Yes you have a right to be mad and upset. But that gives you no right to yell at me. You never yell at me."

Aria said as her tears came pouring down her cheeks once again.

Aria took her pillow and walked down the stairs and

plopped on the couch. Five minutes later Mrs. Fitz came down and covered Aria with a blanket and Aria fell asleep.

Aria woke up abruptly, her mind haunted by a terrible dream of everything that had happened earlier. She hugged her pillow to her chest as tears streamed down her face.

Ezra had never come down to check on her. She knew he was hurting more than she was, but he was always trying to make sure she was alright. She sat with her head in her hands, as tears continued falling down her cheeks. She slowly lifted her head from her hands when she heard Ezra coming down the stairs.

"Aria?" Ezra called out.

Aria remained silent.

"Talk to me." Ezra pleaded.

"Are you going to yell at me again?" Aria asked, looking up to meet his eyes.

"No I'm not going to yell at you." He sighed heavily. "But this is all to much... You should fly home, Aria. I'm going to be staying here for a while."

I looked at him in disbelief. Why would I leave him as he went through all of this? That would just be cruel.

"Ezra, I'm not leaving unless you are. My parents will understand, but if you really just don't want me here then I'll leave."

Ezra closed his eyes and shook his head. "Aria I'm supposed to be the strong one. I don't know what is going to happen. I don't want you to be involved in all of this, and I don't want you to see me hurt. It's just not... Right. I don't want to hurt you by involving you in this mess." Ezra confessed.

Aria took his hands in hers and led him over to the couch.

Aria wrapped her arms around Ezra's shoulder as he leaned his body into hers.

As they sat together in their embrace, Aria noticed the few tears that had fallen down his cheeks.

"Ezra," Aria whispered brokenly as she brushed away his tears. Ezra's eyes met hers, displaying only pain and vulnerability.

"Everything is going to be okay. I'm here and I'm not going to leave you." She whispered. "When your dad comes home today I'll be by your side the entire time. You're not going through this alone." She reminded him.

"I love you Aria," Ezra said softly a few moments later.

"I love you too, but Ezra, we need to both go and get ready for today." She reminded him.

He nodded in agreement before helping her up from the couch. When they got to their room, Aria changed into a summer dress. Ezra changed into a green long sleeved shirt and jeans.

Everyone was sitting in the living room when there was a knock on the door.

The only person it could be was Ezra's father. Ezra's mother got up and answered it and Ezra's father walked in. He sat down on the couch beside Ezra's mom.

"Ezra you're not normally this quiet." He commented.

Ezra sat there looking down and Aria intertwined his fingers with hers.

"Yeah, sorry." Ezra looked up to look at his family.

"Dad, Mom said you had something important to tell us." Kayla spoke up.

When these works came out of Kayla's mouth, Ezra put his head on Aria's shoulder.

"Kayla I have cancer..." Their father revealed.

"How long have you known?" Ezra asked.

"Three weeks" He admitted.

"Why wouldn't you tell us sooner?" Ezra asked angrily.

"Ezra, I wanted to tell you in person."

Ezra looked down as tears once again came running down his cheeks.

"How long do you have?" Kayla asked fearfully.

"Until the end of this month."

Tears began falling down Kayla's face as well. She got up and hugged her dad.

"Daddy you can't go." She cried.

"I don't have a choice." He reminded her. "You have Ezra, your mother, and Ben, you won't be alone."

Ezra let go of Arias hand and walked out to the deck, Aria was about to follow him but his dad followed him so Aria didn't move, she just sat there and waited to see the outcome of Ezra and his father talking outside.
