Chapter 40:

Spencer's POV:

The scans got done on the twins the next day. It turns out that Lily has now got 75% of her hearing! She still needs a hearing aid in her right ear though. Tommy however, his operation did work, but he only has 45% of his vision. There is another operation that he is going to have when he's older that she get more of his eye sight back. The twins are staying in the hospital for one mor night, and then they are coming home. At the moment, I'm sitting with Emily and Allison at their new house they brought 3 weeks ago.

Spencer: Hey, how've you been?

Emily: I've been fine.

Spencer: Where's Allison?

Emily: She's gone out, but I, glad you're here.

Spencer: Why?

Emily: Sit!

I do as I'm told and sit with Emily on her couch. She get up and gets a brown paper bag from the kitchen. She sits back down and hands it to me.

Spencer: What's this?

Emily: Open it.

I look inside and see a pregnancy test box.

Spencer: Emily!

I take the small box out, open it and then look at the stick (which has already been used).

Spencer: Are you sure?

Emily nods her head.

Emily: I've been to a doctor and they confirmed it. What am I going to do? I'm married to a woman so it's going to be clear that I cheated!

Spencer: Can't you just tell Ali that you used a sperm donor?

Emily: Yeah, but keeping a secret like that, it's gonna be hard!

Emily's POV:

Spencer: Look, I'm not encouraging you on lying or anything, but you decided. This is your baby. Clan I ask, do you know who the father is?

Emily: His name is Wren.

I almost choke when I hear that name.

Spencer: Wait, Wren as in Wren Kingston?

Emily: I know, I'm sorry!

Spencer: When, when did you see him?

Emily: The day after we brought this house. I was out and about. I got home and it was late when I forgot an I ingredient for dinner. I went out and it just happened.

Spencer: Oh Emily.

I hug my friend, just as Allison walks through the door.

Allison: Oh hey you two, what's up? Emily, what's wrong?

Emily: Im, I'm uh, I'm pregnant.

Ali's face goes grey.

Allison: Did you cheat on me?

Emily: No, no. It was gonna be a surprise for your birthday. I used a sperm donor.

Allison: Oh my god!

I hug Ali tightly but look Spencer in they eye as I am hugging her.

Spencer: I'll give you two some alone time.

Emily: Ok, thanks for coming.

We give Spencer a hug goodbye and then she leaves.

Allison: Are you sure? How far along are you?

Emily: Im three weeks tomorrow. And yes I'm sure, I've already been to a doctor.

Allison: I'm so happy for you, I mean us.

Spencer's POV:

I'm now sitting with Aria as I decided that I didn't want to sit at home on my own. Ezra is at work and Aria didn't go in because she got fired. We are sitting in her couch and she is ranting on about why and how she got fired.

Aria: So he was like, Aria you can't keep taking time off work. And I was like, but I've been sick. And then he was like well if this keeps up then I'll have to fire you. So then a week later, he talked to me and he fired me on the spot, not only that, it was in front of Ezra. I was so embarrassed. So I came home and trashed the house, I was so angry. Ezra came home, tided the house.

Spencer: What a story, so what are you going to do now?

Aria: I think I'm going to try and publish a book of my life.

Spencer: A biography, spontaneous. Have you spoke to Ezra about this?

Aria: Yeah, he's encouraging me. He also tells me that he misses sitting opposite me in our office. Now he has to sit opposite a really hot chick. She's got perfect features, no fat on her.

Spencer: Aria, Ezra is your husband, he would never look at anyone like the way he looks at you. You're beautiful, smart and to be quite fair, if you wasn't hot, not being rude, but do you think he would have had an illegal relationship with his student?

Aria: You're right.

Spencer: I'm gonna go down to Walmart, you wanna come with?

Aria: Yeah, let me just grab my purse.

Aria grabs her purse and I drive us both to Walmart. We are halfway through our shopping list, when aria shakes my arm.

Spencer: What?

Aria: It's her!

I am totally confused.

Spencer: It's who?

Aria: That chick I was talking about! The one who replaced me at Hollis!

Spencer: Where?

I look up at where Aria is pointing. She was right, she's pretty hot, but I don't see what Ezra would like in her.

Aria's POV:

Spencer: Who do you think she's on the phone to?

Tanya: I love you two. She doesn't have to know. Ok, bye. Do I gave to call you E now? Ok, bye.

She ends the call, and my whole body fills with anger. I know she was talking to Ezra. E is the code name I used for him when I was in high school.

Aria: Excuse me.

Tanya: Hi, you must be Aria, Ezra's wife.

Aria: Yeah, stay away from my husband?

Tanya: What are you talking about?

Aria: You know what! Stay away from Ezra!

Tanya: Come on, I sit opposite him in our office.

Aria: That's it!

I grab Tanya's hair and we are fighting. A small crowd gathers, and I hear Spencer calling Ezra.

Spencer: Ezra, you need to get to Walmart right now!

Ezra: I can't, I'm in the middle of a class!

Spencer: It's Aria, she's in a fight, with Tanya.

Ezra: I'm on my way!

Ezra must have been going over the speed limit as he is at the store within minutes.

Spencer: Do something.

Ezra: What's going on here?

Ezra pulls me away, but I shake him off.

Aria: Don't touch me. I knew you were cheating on me with that slut, Tanya!

Tanya: What are you talking about?

Spencer's POV:

Aria: Me and my friend were watching you talk to my husband on the phone. Oh do I have to call you E now? That's the code name I used for you Ezra!

Ezra: Aria, check my phone! The last call I made was to you 2 hours ago!

Tanya: Aria, you must be mistaken, I use E, short for my husbands name, Ethan.

Aria: What?

Tanya: My husbands name is Ethan and he like me to cal, him E!

Aria: Oh my god. I'm so embarrassed.

Ezra: Yeah and so am I! I'll see you after work at home!

Aria: Ezra wait!

Ezra leaves before Aria get a chance to talk to him.

Aria: I'm so sorry Tanya. I should have let you explain. I should be more trustful with you and my husband.

Tanya: It's ok. I had this problem with someone at my last school.

Aria: I'm so sorry again.

Tanya: Look, think of it as, just don't think about it. Let's draw a line and start again.

Aria: Ok.

Tanya leaves the store and so do me and Aria. I drop aria home, knowing that there will be an argument. I walk her to her door. She goes into her house, shuts the door and moments later, Ezra arrives. I'm in my car, so he doesn't see me. I can see them arguing through their living room window. I decide not to interfere so I go to pick my kids up. Once I have, we drive home.

Isabella: Mom?

Spencer: What is it sweetie?

Isabella: We have been told at school that there is going to be a field trip to Disney World.

Spencer: Ok.

Isabella: Well, can I go? Mason got to go last year!
