"Aria and Mr. Fitz!" Mona practically screamed as we got out of the car.
"Hi Mona." Me and Ezra said at the same time.
"So what are you two doing out of that old stuffy apartment and outside?"
"It's not stuffy!" I snapped at her.
Ezra wrapped his arm around my waist and answered Mona's questions, "We're going to meet the girls here for lunch."
Mona flashed us a smile. "Oh well I won't waist anymore of your time." Mona started to walk away then she turned back. "Oh and congratulations!" She flashed us the same evil smile then contained to walk away. I looked at Ezra, he comforted me with a kiss.
"It's ok," he said. "we all knew Mona was still part of the -A team. She can't hurt you! I won't let her! Now lets go inside and not worry anymore, ok?"
"Ok." I sighed and we locked hands and walked inside. The girls were inside at a table as soon as they saw me the jumped up and hugged me, well Emily and Hanna did. Spencer did move. In fact she didn't look away from her book. While Emily and Ezra talked, me and Hanna went over and sat down with Spencer.
"Hi Spencer." I said timidly.
She looked at me with anger. "They didn't tell me you were coming."
"Spencer! Aria is our friend!" Hanna snapped at her.
"Spencer I'm sorry." I said lowering my voiced.
"Sorry?!" She said slamming her boom down, "How could you Aria! This is a child your bringing into are hell of a life! Do your really think us moving away is going to stop -A? No! -A will find her ways to get to us. And now that we know red coat has planes train and cars, who knows how far they'll travel to destroy us!"
"Spencer how could you say that? I mean sure Aria fucked up, but that could have been me and Caleb. Just the other week we forgot protection but I got lucky! Now Aria wants to keep the baby and us being her best friends we need to support her and keep her safe. Just like, I'm sure, Ezra will do!"
Spencer looked at Hanna long after she'd finished talking, not saying a word.
"Look guys," I said filling the awkward pause. "Not that this helps but -A knows I'm pregnant. So does Mona." Hanna gasped and put a comforting hand on my knee "Well Mona's part of the -A team so I'd suspect she does!" Spencer said with sarcasm in her voice.
"Also my dad kicked me out... And my mom... She didn't say to much about the mater at hand, she just seemed upset. So I'm living with Ezra."
"Aria what did you expect?" Spencer said "For you to be my friend and not my enemy! Spencer I know I messed up, but I mean for the love of god your joined the -A team with out telling us!" Emily and Ezra walked over in the middle of my rampage.
"Woah woah woah! What's going on?" Emily said sitting on the other side of me that Hanna wasnt sitting on. Ezra stood behind us on the couch.
"ARIA YOUR LUCKY I WAS THE ONE WHO WAS PUT ON THE A TEAM AND NOT YOURSELF!"
"What is that suppose to mean?" Me and Emily said at the same time.
"It means that maybe next time, you'll think before you'll act." Spencer said starting to rise from her seat.
"No spencer!" Emily practically screamed, now the whole coffee shop looking at us. "Why can't you just be here for Aria? I mean sure I'm upset and scared but I'm happy for her too! Just like if this was happening to you." Spencer shrugged and just glared at me.
"Ezra I think we should head out." I said looking at him with tears in my eyes. Why was this so common lately, me looking at Ezra like a lost puppy and him being my shinning knight.
"Me too." He said kissing the top of my head.
"Bye everyone." I looked around at my 3 best friends. The thing that hurt the most was Spencer pretended I wasn't even there when me and Ezra left. I hugged Emily and Hanna but Spencer just sat there.
That night at about 11:30 the phone rang, making me and Ezra jump out of a deep sleep. Ezra sat there for no more than a second then got up and answered the phone.
"Hello? Yeah... Who is this? Oh... Um when? Next week? Monday. Ok. Why are you calling so late. Well I have a life to! Yes I know. Ok bye." Ezra hung up the phone rubbed his eyes then crawled back into bed with me.
"Who was that?" I said punctuating every word with a kiss.
"Maggie. She wants Malcolm to come over next Monday."
"So she called you at 11:00 to ask you this?"
"There are reasons why we still arn't together."
I laughed and we made out before falling back to sleep. The alarm woke me and Ezra up for school. Well Ezra for another day of job interviews, and me for school. As I picked out my outfit for the day the morning sickness hit, hard, again. I ran to the bathroom. Ezra, quickly following me, held my hair back and rubbed my back as I threw up. I cleaned myself up and hugged Ezra in the middle of the bathroom.
"I'll be ok Aria. I won't ever let you go."
I smiled then looked at the time. "Well it looks like your going to have to. Or ill be late for school!" Ezra released me and I got dressed for school. I lifted my shirt and looked at my normal-sized stomach in the full length mirror on the back of the bathroom door. Ezra came in wearing a suit and tie. He bend down a kissed my stomach.
"Hi baby, this is your daddy. Me and your mommy love you." I giggled and bet down to kiss Ezra. He picked me up are lips locked and carried me to the car. I could get use to this whole living with your boyfriend thing. Ok so I mean sure we have a crazy stalker after us, but now they'll be three of us. We drove off to school jamming out to some 80's music. Then we pulled up to the hell hole, god I hated school. I kissed Ezra goodbye and got out of his car.
As I walked threw the never ending hallways and to my locker I saw Spencer leaning against my locker waiting for someone, I guess me.
"Aria!" Spencer said as soon as she saw me.
"What did I do now?!" I said thinking she was angry with me. She ran up and hugged me, crying. I pushed her away not sure what was going on. "Spence... What's wrong."
"You have to get an abortion."
"Spencer no! I told you I'm keeping my baby!"
"Aria you don't understand!"
I put my hand on my hip and sighed, "The tell me what I need to know!"
"I- I... -A sent me a message last night when you left." Spence said threw her tears, "It read, Get rid of the kid or pay the price. Long term my friends -A"
I hugged Spencer. "I won't let -A hurt you because of my baby! But you have to give a little too! My baby needs an Aunt Spencer!" She smiled and gave me another big hug.
"Aria I'm scared for you and Ezra! I couldn't stop thinking about it last night!"
"Spence we'll be fine."
The classes went by slower than normal that day. My mom didn't even look at me, and I guess the whole school knows now. Why do I say the whole school knows? -A saved me the trouble of telling everyone and sent a text to everyone who attended my school and -A spray painted the word "slut" on my locker in big red letters, signed with an -A, also in red spray paint. God, -A is not making my life any easier.
I got in Ezra car and he took of to drive us home. Then his phone rang, "It's me. Yeah. Oh shit! I forgot, I have a interview that day. Ok... I guess ill just have to-"
"Are you talking about picking up Malcolm?" I interrupted.
"Yeah, but Aria-"
"Ill pick him up."
"No you won't! Your pregnant and I told you I didn't want you leaving the house!" Ezra quickly snapped back to the phone realizing Maggie could still hear us. "Um you heard that? Yeah. Yes, Aria is pregnant. Yes, yes it's my baby. Maggie your going to far! I didn't knock her up we're in love! Ok, she'll come Monday. Alright bye." Ezra pulled into the parking spot for his apartment then sat back in his seat. I grabbed his hand and kisses him.
"You worry too much." I said breaking the kiss, "Everything will be fine."
