Summary: "Ezra is at work so Aria sends him a snapchat of a sleeping Daisy…."Author's Note: A response to this picture at the ezriagame tumblr (neither my picture nor tumblr)
During a break between classes, Ezra heads back to his office. He settles himself in, then pulls out his phone. As expected, a picture from Aria is waiting for him. She knows how much he hates having to leave her and Daisy, so she sends him pictures and videos of whatever they’re doing for the day. She knows that he wants to be as involved as possible in his daughter’s life, and he’s eternally grateful that she includes him when he can’t be home with her.
Daisy had been a surprise. Not an unwelcome one (during Aria’s pregnancy, Ezra had sometimes referred to Daisy as their “happy accident”), but a surprise nonetheless. They had planned on having kids someday, but someday had always been somewhere in the vague future, not a few months into their engagement. He figured it suited them, though; they’d never had very good timing. And besides, Daisy had made the most beautiful flower girl in their wedding. It had been a trying year and a half, learning to be parents, but he wouldn’t trade it for the world.
Ezra swipes right to open the snapchat and a serene smile instantly comes to his face. Aria had sent him a picture of Daisy sleeping in their bed. The light from their bay window streams in behind her, laying delicate shadows across her small features. He has spent countless hours memorizing those little traits, the best combination of him and Aria all rolled up into one tiny person. He quickly takes a screenshot.
It takes a minute for Aria’s caption to sink in. Ezra frantically pulls the picture back up on his screen and stares at it, making sure he didn’t misread anything. He didn’t. Can we make another one please? she’d written.
Ezra looks up at the framed picture sitting on his desk, of him, Aria, and Daisy at their wedding. He thinks of his family, of how much he loves Aria, of how he’d instantaneously fallen in love with Daisy the second Aria had announced her existence.
It doesn’t take him long to text her back.
Let’s do it.
