What if? (Grey's Anatomy Edition)

Chapter 18- Sober

2 weeks later about 8 weeks pregnant

Trigger Warning: Talk of drugs and relapse

Arizona's POV

I had been back to work for about a week and it seemed like Amelia was recovering well. She hasn't pushed her limits and her and Derek were working well together. Most of the pain has subsided, Derek did warn that she could have a spontaneous bout of pain, but we haven't gotten there yet. 

I would go visit her every chance I could, and slept in a cot next to her bed, most times she would wake me up to cuddle in the hospital bed anyway. I happily obliged that. I missed holding her and cuddling her. 

Tonight I wanted to ask her an important question. I didn't know how she would take it, but I think it was time for me to ask it.

She woke me up in the middle of the night to come snuggle her, and I decided to take the time then to ask. "Amy, you awake?" I asked. "Hmm?" She hummed out.

"I wanted to talk to you about something." I said in a soft voice. "Oh no, are you breaking up with me? I'm so sorry, what happened to---" She says as I cut her off with a kiss.

"Okay, maybe I deserved that, I'm just nervous." She says. "Baby, it's nothing bad. At least I hope it isn't to you." I say sincerely. "Okay, what is it?" She asked softly.

"I want you to move in with me. We'd have to find a house. It's okay if you say no, you know what maybe I was crazy for asking, forget I said----" She cuts me off with a long passionate kiss.

"You know you ramble when you're nervous. It's cute, but I'm not sure why you thought I would say no. In fact, I was going to ask you the same thing tomorrow. We really are soulmates, baby. We are literally having a baby together or babies." She finishes and I cup her face and pull her in for another long passionate kiss.

"Okay, so I don't know about you, but I am wide awake now. So grab your laptop and bring it over here." She says. "I'll text Edwards to get it for me from my office." I say. I grab my phone and text Edwards to bring me my laptop. I only asked because I know she's been wanting to check on Amelia. 

Stephanie walks in with the laptop and stays for a little while to chat. "How is your recovery going, Dr. Shepherd? I miss having my mentor around. The other Dr. Shepherd isn't quite the same, but don't tell him I said that." Steph finishes. We all laugh.

"It has been good, but hell as I expected it to be. This is one right here has been an angel. Quite honestly too good to me." She says as she whispers something in my ear, and I nod to her to say it's okay. "We have some exciting news though, if you're up for some good news." Amelia says.

"I NEED good news, the ER has been kind of boring and the night is just dragging on." She laughs. "Okay well, don't tell anyone yet. Arizona is pregnant with our baby or babies and we are moving in together." Amelia says, and Stephanie looked like she was about to cry from excitement. 

"Oh my gosh you guys, that is so amazing. I can't believe it! My mentor is going to have a baby!!" She almost squeals and then pulls each of us into hugs. "May I?" She asks, pointing to my belly. I happily oblige.

She takes both sides of my stomach in her hands as she knelt down. "Hi little ones, you are very lucky to have these two right here as your mommies. You are going to make amazing surgeons one day or rockstars. Really, it's your choice. Maybe I'll get to mentor you one day." She finishes with a smile up to us. 

"Okay, I have to ask. Pediatric surgeon or neurosurgeon?" She asks. "If my prediction is right, hopefully one of each. But if I had to choose I'd say Pediatric surgery." Amelia says, which earns her a confused look from me. "If they are anything like you in regard to a surgeon, anyone would be beyond lucky to have them as their doctor." She finishes and that earns her a kiss.
