Aria's POV:

I turn to ice. Emily and Ezra.... Together? What the hell is going on. I think back to 2 months ago, the last time Ezra and I talked. "I have to take care of my son, put him first! Maggie is counting on me now to be a parent and I'm still learning!" Ezra screamed at me. "What about us then? Am I just your babysitter or the nanny? Every time I see you now you are either with Malcolm or Maggie and if you aren't with them, you are on the phone with them!" "He's my son! I wasn't part of his life for seven years! He's in my life now and he needs his father!" I cross my arms "What about Maggie?" I ask. I hear his apartment door open behind me, I don't need to turn around to know who it was. "Am I interrupting?" Maggie says in her always happy, cheerful and sometimes godawful annoying tone. I turn slightly and see Malcolm and Maggie hand and hand a few feet into the apartment. Ezra and I look at each other, then I completely turn to Maggie. "No...." I look back at Ezra and then forward my gaze back to Maggie "You aren't interrupting at all and won't have to worry or feel guilty about leaving or interrupting us, because that will never happen again." I remember picking my bag up and walking out of his apartment for the last time. "Aria?" Hanna says, "How do you feel?" Spencer "Hanna, how do you think she would feel about this?" "Well I don't know what to say after a bomb has been dropped?!" Hanna shouts. I finally talk "I just want to rest." they both look at me. "Do you want us to stay?" Spencer asks me. "No I just want to be alone right now." "Okay, call if you need anything." I nod in response. Silence. No one talks after that. Spencer gives me a small hug and shoots me a smile when she and Hanna walk out the door. The nurse left my window curtains open, I watch them walk down the hall and into the elevator. Thoughts about Ezra, Emily, Maggie, Malcolm, and A have been racing through my head for the past couple of minutes, then my head clears. One question is on my mind.... What the hell just happened?
