Hi! So basically, I needed a break from TWILY. It's a little more dramatic than lighthearted and I figured with all this Jason and Aria crap, I needed to write something a little more fun (plus I'm not getting a huge response unlike Reunited.) I had this idea floating around in my head while visiting my cousins in Denver, so I figured, why not write it out!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything but Dex, Sabrina, and Bridget.

Read, Enjoy, and Review (seriously people!) 3

"Ezra please? Just this once!"

Ezra walked around his apartment, phone cradled between his ear and shoulder. He began to clear up papers and books, trying to make the small space presentable for Aria, although she didn't care much, all the while listening to his older brother plead with him to babysit his 6 year old daughter.

"Dex, this happened the last time, and Bridget ended up trashing my dorm room! Besides, Aria's coming over tonight…"

"She was 4 years old! She's older now, she knows better. Besides, she loves her Uncle Ezra and hasn't seen you since Christmas. Please, it would mean a lot to Sabrina and I."

He sighed a bit, but remembered the adorable little girl's face. Bridget really did love him, and he never really did get to spend time with her. He didn't think Aria would have such a problem with it. Babysitting could be somewhat of an adventure for them both.

"Fine Dex, I'll babysit. Is it okay if Aria comes over though too? I'm sure she'd love to meet you and the family."

"Of course! Anything to embarrass my little brother in front of his 17 year old girlfriend." Ezra could hear Dex smile teasingly through the phone. The two Fitz brothers had always been close, so when Ezra knew he was in love with Aria, he told Dex. His brother's initial reaction was much like Hardy's, but as soon as he saw how happy Ezra was with Aria in his life, he let it go.

"Haha, very funny. Remind me why you need babysitting again."

"Sabrina's sorority sister's wedding in Philly. You can't take it back now Ezra. We're already on the road."

"You really think I'd withdraw my offer to babysit my niece with my girlfriend? I'm hurt. What time do you think you'll be here around?"

"Probably around 4. Sabrina is getting ready at the hotel and all I have to do it put on a monkey suit and comb back my hair. Is that good?"

"Yeah, it's fine. See you later."

After exchanging goodbyes, Ezra punched in the familiar numbers of Aria's cell phone number. Luckily after the one year they had been together and the one year he had been teaching at Hollis, her parents came to terms with their relationship as did the town. In fact, their romance really wasn't as much of a big deal as it had been in the first days of going public. Sometimes they got the occasional stare, but people treated them as a normal couple.

She answered on the first ring. "Hey babe." She sounded distracted as she spoke. "Yes Han, it's Ezra," he heard her say to her friend n the background; laughing at the extra emphasis she put on his name. "No you can't say hi."

"Sorry about that. Hanna's being herself as usual. Ouch, what was that for," she heard her yelp. Ezra could hear faint traces of Hanna's reply.

"Aria, is this a bad time? I could just call you or text?"

"No, Ezra it fine, I'm just going to leave the room. DO NOT FOLLOW ME HANNA," he heard her exclaim and he chuckled. Hanna was definitely the gossip queen of her little clique. "Ok, sorry. I'm rearranged in the bathroom. Don't laugh. It's the only place where Hanna can't get in. What's up?"

"Do you mind if we have an extra guest on our date tonight?"

"It depends on who you mean by date? Another woman, no," she said laughing.

"Well, if you classify my 6 year old niece as a woman, I guess we should just call it off." Ezra laughed as he went along with her play.

"Ezra Fitz, are we babysitting tonight?"

"I take that as a yes," he stated but it sounded more like a question. Ezra nervously tapped his finger on his kitchen counter. He was actually looking forward to having Aria babysitting with him that night. It'd be a trial of some sorts; a trial of how life we be like with their own children down the road.

"Yes! What time should I be over? What are we going to do with her? What's her name?" Aria continued to probe him with questions, but she couldn't help it. She had grown excited! Babysitting with Ezra would be an interesting task.

"Be at my place around 3:45. She'll be there around 4. Her name is Bridget, my brother Dex's daughter. We'll figure out what to do with her when she gets here I guess. How hard can it be?"

"Ezra, have you ever babysat before." Her voice grew serious and a bit taunting.

"Umm, once. For Bridget when she was 4. It was…interesting."

"What did she trash your dorm room or something?"

"Yes. But it wasn't my fault! Hardy had riled her up!" He heard her laugh from the other end of the phone.

"Lucky for you, I am an expert babysitting. A note to you darling, but I would never let Hardy, children, and sugar mix. It sounds like a deadly combination." Both Aria and Ezra fell into laughter until Hanna began to pound on Aria's bathroom door.

"Aria! I swear, if you're having phone sex in there…"

"Han, shut up! I'm coming right now," Ezra heard Aria shout.

Hanna's laugh sounded from the other side of the door. "You're coming."

Aria sighed and smacked her forehead. A blush crept over her face, and she could sense the same was happening with her boyfriend on the other end of the line. "Real funny Hanna," she said, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "Sorry, Hun. I've got to go before Hanna barges down the door. Love you!"

"Love you too! See you at 3:45."

Both Aria and Ezra hung up their phones. Aria emerged from her bathroom to find a waiting Hanna with her ear pressed against the door. She nearly lost balance when Aria pushed open the wooden door.

"Was it hot?"

"If you consider talking about plans to babysit his niece tonight a turn on, then yes.

"Babysitting with Fitzy! How cute!" Hanna trailed Aria back to her room, and flopped down on her trundle day bed. She began to flip open a Vogue magazine laying on the end table, but decided to question Aria continuously about the little girl she'd be meeting that night.

This should be an interesting "date".

Heehee, oh Hanna! You and your jokes! So let me know what you think of this and if I should continue! Any ideas on what they should do with Bridget are welcome!

Please leave me feedback! I love getting reviews and they mean so much! It only takes a few moments, and to those silent readers, I KNOW YOU'RE THERE! Don't be shy!

Have a good July 4th, if you're in the USA!

love always,
