Bumps, Bruises And Scars

chapter 25: meet the Montgomery's

Ezra's pov:

After today Aria seemed upset after we talked to Tanner about Noel, I heard her about an hour or two ago crying upstairs, but I know to leave her when she is like this because she will just get angry at me.

I started to prepare dinner seems it was 5:50 right now.

Aria had been sleeping nearly all day.

After I knew she was sleeping again, I dished up the spaghetti I made and went to wake her.

I walked into the room to see a sleeping Aria on the bed.

"wake up sweetly, it's time for dinner." I said gently shaking her until she began to stur.

Her hazel eyes shot open, and they were blood shot red.

"Aria, what's up?" I asked sweetly.

"Ezra, I don't want to talk right now." Aria replied bursting into tears again.

"babe, what happened?" I asked again.

"Ezra please." she begged.

"Aria, I heard you earlier, you were crying, and I thought I should have left you alone for abit so that you didn't get upset again, but now I want to know, what's wrong?" I said.

"im scared, I'm too scared to move, to leave the house, even to get out of bed, I can't breathe, he's still out there and I can't do anything about it, what if he tries to hurt the baby or you, I would never forgive myself Ezra, I love you and I can't let you get hurt, so I think it's just best if we take a break for a bit, I have been trying to find a way to say this to you that will hurt you the least, and I still can't think of one, so I'm just going to tell you straight, I'm sorry, but I love you too much and I don't want you to get hurt." she said crying even harder.

"Aria, no don't you dare even try to leave again! I don't care if I'm in danger, God can't you see that I love you, my life was a living hell when you got kidnapped, I couldn't sleep and I spent all day worrying about you. I will protect you, and the police are looking for Noel now. And I saw to God if I ever see that man I will make him wish he was dead for everything he put you through." I said trying to stay strong.

"Ezra I'm doing this because I love you, so please." she begged.

"no, I'm never letting you go ever again." I said kissing her head.

"I love you Ezra, I love how you always care for me no matter what." she cried.

" I will always love you and nothing on earth will ever change that, and in just after months we will have a little daughter." I smiled.

"what time is it?" she asked.

"It's 6:30, so come on there is spaghetti on the table." I replied.

We both got up and went to the kitchen to collect our food.

It was cold so we re-heated it in the microwave.

"so what do you want to call the baby?" Aria asked.

"I had acouple of ideas, but I'm not sure." I replied.

"Oh well what were they?" she asked.

"well I thought something like:
Scarlet
Lucy
Peyton
Hope
Things like that." I replied.

"awh, those names are so cute Ezra." Aria said sweetly.

"so did you have any ideas?" I asked.

"yeah ever since I was little I wanted to call my baby Phoebe-Grace or Amelia-Rose." she replied.
