Ellie and pats quarantine

Back to work

3 weeks later.

Ellen POV:
I felt so bad for patty. He had been putting up with my hormones for 5 weeks, crying, sobbing, happy, laughing.

I woke up this morning to my phone ringing. I looked and it said it was from Shonda. Mmh?

"Hello Shonda!"
"Ellen hi! I have great news!"
"What?"
"We can start shooting again!"
"Omg that's amazing!"
"Ya tell your husband, you are being flown out tonight!"
"Tonight?"
"Ya we need a good head start."
"S-Shonda, I'll try but... patty doesn't want me traveling while pregnant"
"Your pregnant!"
"Oops.. ya I am!"
"Ok see what you can do and call me"

I hung up the phone and looked over at Patrick who was still sleeping. He woke up a few minutes later as I was watching him. "Well good morning" I leaned in and kissed him, rolling us over so that I was on top. I pulled away and he smiled. "What was that for?" He smiled and pulled me in again. I backed up and straddled his lap. "I'm going to tell you something. And you can't be mad" I looked deep into his eyes. He looked confused but he nodded his head. "Ok..."

"I'm going back to the set of Grey's and I'm flying out tonight" I squinted my eyes and clamped my teeth, hoping he wouldn't be mad. "Ellen." He sternly looked at me with a serious face. "You know-" before he could finish I pulled him in by his collar and kissed him. He immediately pulled away. "I said no getting mad" I gave him a pouty face. He sighed and made eye contact with me again. "You know how I feel about you flying, especially when your carrying our baby" I felt a little bit of guilt strike up. "What did I ever do to you Patrick!" I started crying and got off him.

He knew the hormones were coming...

Patrick POV:
"No, don't pull the crying thing on me" I got up and followed her to the kitchen. She started crying and running even more, out to the backyard. "Stop following me Patrick! All I want to do is work!" She ran around to the other side of the pool. Maybe she wasn't crying to make me feel bad.

"Ellen! I'm trying to protect our baby! If you get covid so will the baby! And the baby will die. Is that what you want? To kill our child!" I came off way to harsh, and now she was balling her eyes out on her knees. I took a deep breath in before walking over to her and lightly grabbing her arm, pulling her up. "No! Get off of me!" She started squirming from my grasp.

SPLASH!

She fell into the pool while hyperventilating. "Crap!" I cursed as I started taking my clothes off. She couldn't swim because she had so much clothing on and was freaking out. I jumped in and by that time she had stopped moving. I was freaking out because I had two lives to save right now.

"Ellie!" I grabbed her and pulled her up to the concrete. She was blue and shaking. But she was breathing. I picked her up and held her in my arms like a baby until she started coughing up water. "Ellie..." I pulled her into my chest so her head was on my shoulder. I patted her back as she coughed a bit more. I needed to get her warmed up. "Patty..." she started waking up a bit more. I got her in the warm shower with me holding her up. She fell asleep in my embrace so I got her out and changed into some clothes.

I set her down on the couch and she woke up. I was sitting on floor by her head and running my hands through her hair. Her eyes fluttered open and she turned around to not face me. "Ellie, please. I'm sorry" I rubbed her back and laid behind her. She squirmed away from my touch but I only got closer.

"Baby please..." I put my hand on her stomach and rubbed the bump that was just barley showing up. "No." She started to pout and bury her face in the cushions. "Hey, I am the father of this baby and you are my wife. Talk to me please" I turned her over and looked into her eyes. She stared blankly at me, "please patty! Let me go back. I'll wear double gloves and a mask at all time! I'll do anything!" Her eyes weren't teary or anything, she was begging me to let her go back. And I felt bad if I said no.
