Chapter Twenty One

*Aria's POV*

The doctor came back for questioning and checking my baby, "Miss.Montgomery, is it?" The Doctor said while writing something on his clipboard. I felt my hands start to sweat. 

"Y-yes, yes it is." I stuttered slightly out of nerves.

"And you're here because you think that there is a possibility of a miscarriage?" I cocked my head at his question.

"Is that a serious question?" I heard Ezra chuckle at his statement.

"Yes, Mr...erm...Fitz." Ezra glared at the man standing before us.

"So, what's the problem?" Ezra said in an exasperated tone.

"Well it seems a fluid had intertwined with your bloodstreams."

"What kind of fluid?" I asked urgently.

"Hydrargyrum." Ezra and I looked confused.

"Um, what's that?" I asked hoping not to sound too stupid.

"Mercury." I felt tears start to form in the corners of my eyes.

"How will that affect the baby?" I said as I watched a tear stream down Ezra's cheek.

"We're not sure, it's to be determined." I felt my head start to pound, my ears start to get hot, and my face start to burn. 

"No! That's not fair!" I screamed at my doctor.

"Aria!" I heard Ezra scream as I fell backwards and hit the floor.

*Four Hours Later*

*Aria's POV*

It was cold, dark, and lonely. Some of the worst things I could imagine. It felt like all of the nerves in my body shut down. I wanted to scream Ezra's name but I couldn't. Every bone in my body felt...broken. My head was still pounding, but was my heart? I couldn't tell. I couldn't hear anything nor smell anything. I felt like I was falling into a deep dark hole over and over again. Is this what it felt like to die or be dead? That question stuck in my mind. What if I was in hell? You know, from all the lies I had told? What about my baby? What about my friends? What about Ezra? What about everything I worked for? Gone. Everything I've ever heard, smelt, seen, felt, is...lost. If I had the chance to start over, would I take it? No, I don't think I would. If I started over there was always the possibility I wouldn't meet Ezra, and He wouldn't be mine. I felt my head jerk. What was that? I thought I was dead? Was I just in a coma? Is everything going to be okay? I still heard nothing. Not even a heartbeat. I couldn't hear breathing, nor could I hear voices, all except for my own. The only thing I kept imagining was Ezra's face. His lips pressed against mine. His hands fitting perfectly in mine. This couldn't be the end for me. I wouldn't let that happen, neither would Ezra.

*Ezra's POV*

Twelve hours. That's how long I haven't been able to hear Aria's voice. Twelve hours of pure lonesome. I've sat in the same spot this entire time. Trying to think of the jubilation I'll feel when she wakes. Knowing that if she doesn't wake up I'll feel empty forever. She truly is my one and only. If she doesn't wake up soon, I'll slip into a coma. Wouldn't that be better? At least I wouldn't be sitting here staring at her knowing she's suffering. 

"Aria, I love you so much. There's nothing I wouldn't do to hug you and kiss you and tell you everything will be okay." I felt tears stream down my face. One by one the tears started to flow down my cheeks. If only I could just take all of her pain and suffering away, I kept thinking to myself.

*Twelve Hours Later*

*Aria's POV*

"Ezra?" I said in a low tone hoping he could hear it.

"Aria!" Ezra gasped.

"Hi, what happened?" I said with a sweet smile on my face.

"What do you mean, 'what happened'?" He looked...angry.

"Ezra, why are you mad at me?" Before I knew it, my eyes closed.

*Dream Ends*

-

A/N :  I know I didn't say it was dream in the beginning. I did it on purpose. :)

*Breathing heavily*

"Ezra?" I said practically shouting.

"Aria, you're awake!" He said hugging me, softly rubbing the small of my back.

"What happened to me?" I said wrapping my arms around his warm neck breathing in the scent of his cologne.

"We were in a doctors appointment, and you passed out. You said in a coma for about-" He paused as he checked his watch. "Sixteen hours." I gasped.

"Oh my god, Ezra! I'm so sorry!" I said while tears started to soak his shirt.

"Aria, it's not your fault, the doctors were worried though." He wiped a stray tear that ran down my cheek.

"W-what do they think would've happened?" I could hear the shakiness in my voice.

"They thought you wouldn't make it."
