Previously: Aria came out and sat on the newly cleaned kitchen floor. She started a timer on her phone and laid down the eight tests. When the timer went off we all looked at the them and...

Aria's POV

"Ezra are you ready to go? The appointment is in 30 minutes." there was no response. I walked out of the bathroom to see Ezra had fallen asleep on the couch. I walked up to the couch and put my head on the back of it, "Ezra..." he moaned, "Ezra, we have to go." he rolled over facing me and opened his eyes. "Morning sleepy head." he groaned. I tried to walk away but Ezra grabbed my wrist. When I looked back at him he had a three year old kissie face. I leaned down to kiss him, "I love you, Aria, no matter what happens." I smiled at his words, "I love you too."

-At the Doctor's Office-

"Fitz." a monotone voice called for Ezra and I to go back. It took everything I had not to run back to the room and get started right away. Ezra grabbed my hand as we walked down to the hallway to the examination room. We walked in and I sat on the bed, Ezra stood next to me.

The doctor walked in, "Hello Aria! How have you been?" Dr. Sheppard made it easy for me, she did the first time also. "I'm doing well I guess." I lied I didn't want Ezra to know I'm completely freaking out on the inside. Dr. Sheppard looked at the shaking Ezra, "And who is this?" her hand extended for a handshake from Ezra. He shook her hand but didn't speak. "This is Ezra, my Husband, and baby daddy from both times I've been to you." I spoke for him. She nodded, "Nice to meet you." he gave a quick smile and went back to the blank face he had before. Dr. Sheppard broke the short awkward silence, "Why don't we get started?" I went to lean back, Ezra was hanging on to my hand like it was the only thing keeping him from falling fifty feet without a net.

*Flashback*

Looking at the eight pregnancy tests on the floor, I know now what I need to do to be a parent. Even if I'm not pregnant. The four positive, and four negative tests meant I needed to be more responsible, I need to be ready for anything that happens. Accidents happen, if there happy or sad, they do.

*End of Flashback*

I wiped away the cold, blue, gel on my stomach and stood up. I then buttoned my pants and rolled my shirt back down. I grabbed Ezra's hand before we found out the news. Dr. Sheppard had a concerned look on her face. Ezra spoke for first time since we have been here, "We can take anything, no matter what. just tell us please." I smiled at his support for our relationship. She spoke, "Well."

-later at the apartment-

Ezra's POV

The doctors words kept running though my head. Even all the sounds of the construction of our soon to be new home can't distract me. Then Aria spoke, the sound of her voice sounded like butterflies. It could distract me from anything. "Ezra, what do you say about going to the brew and getting coffee? We can talk about everything wile we're there." I jumped up and ran to the door to open it, "Ladies first." I gave her a boyish grin." After shutting the apartment door she looked at me with competition in her eyes, "There is a reason you shouldn't open the door and wait for me." I raised my eyebrow as she continued, "Because now I'm going to beat you to the car." she ran as fast as her little legs would carry her down to the car. When we both hit the car she stared giggling, "I beat you every time we do that Fitz. Learn how to run goodness." her giggles made my life better. I ran to the passenger side of the car and opened the door for Aria. Before I shut the door after she got in, I told her why she always wins, "You always win not because I'm slow but because a real man waits for his woman, weather it be to open a door, or to simply get a kiss. He will always wait." I leaned in the car and gave Aria a kiss on the forehead. I ran around to the drivers side of the car and got in. We then drove to the brew.

After getting our coffee, black for me, chi tea for Aria, we found a quiet table in the corner of the coffee shop. Aria said the first words when we sat down, "So what should we do? See how it goes without medication? Or take the medication. Either way I'm okay with it." I could tell she was lying, her eyes got big and her voice changed octaves, "Bull shit you're fine with it. What do you want to do. Its your body." her face went blank for a moment. "I forget you know me so well." I smiled, "Well don't forget it." she smiled and spoke the truth, "I don't feel comfortable taking medication that could do the exact opposite of what we want and hurt the baby even more." she looked at the floor as if she was ashamed. I pushed her head up with my thumb, "I guess were doing this naturally then." she smiled that I was agreeing with her. She kissed me, "I love you Ezra." "I love you too." we continued to talk until we realized it was three o'clock and we had been sitting there for four hours. "Ready to go?" she asked me. "Of course." I helped her out of her chair and we walked to the car.

We were driving in silence until I spoke, "We can do this. We can raise a baby." I looked at her and smiled. She reached down and lightly ran her fingers across her still tiny belly, "Of course we can."
