Remember Me

5

Miranda jumped scared a little. "oh my goodness, you guys." Miranda said excitedly. She looked around the room and awed at the decor.

"Benjamin you did all this?" She questioned turning to him and he nodded. "40's a big deal." Ben whispered.

"Thank you so much." Miranda said as tears fell out her eyes and she tried to dab them away with her hand, so she wouldn't mess up her make up. She grabbed Ben and kissed him hard, standing up on her toes and threw her arms around his neck, forgetting about her friends and coworkers in the room.

"Gross mom and dad." Tuck shouted walking over.

"Hey honey." Miranda said hugging Tuck.

Tuck hugged Miranda quickly before hugging Ben and squeezing hard.

"Hey Tuck." Ben grinned.

Miranda glanced around the room and she let out a squeal. "Calliope Iphegenia Torres." Before rushing over.

Ben watched as the two women embraced and rocked back and forth.

"I missed you so much. When did you get here and how long are you staying?" Miranda asked excitedly

"Ben called. He told me everything and I'm sorry about that. I know it's hard." Callie frowned before continuing.

"He put me, Arizona and Sofia on a plane and then picked us up from the airport yesterday." She informed.

"Aww that was so sweet of him." Miranda gushed.

"We will be staying for a week." Callie added.

"You want privileges." Miranda said wiggling her eyebrows.

"Of course.  Let's do a surgery together like old times."

Miranda smiled widely nodding her head.

"You look stunning and sexy dress." Callie commented.

"I had something to do with that." Ben smiled interjecting.
Miranda’s eyes got big before blushing and she turned to meet Ben's face.

"He bought it." Miranda explained.

"Great pick Warren." Callie said laughing.

Everyone from work came and hugged her. She talked with Richard and April as they informed her they help with organizing the party.

She took so many pictures with so many people. Loving the photo booth.

Ben took pictures with her and picked her up bridal style and kissed her in front of the free standing 40. That was lit up with lights.

"Are you having a good time?" Ben asked as she finally sat down and started eating.

"I’m having the absolute best time. I haven't had a birthday party in years."

"And why is that?" Ben asked concerned.

"I just never wanted one and you respected my wishes." She answered giving him a small smile.

Miranda smiled looking at her family. Meredith and her children, Alex and jo, Callie Arizona and Sofia. Richard, Catherine, Jackson April ,Harriet and Maggie, Amelia and Owen. Schmitt and so many more, even station 19. She had been through a lot with most of these individuals and she truly loved them.

"Before I blow out these candles. I just want to thank all of you who are here today to help me celebrate my birthday. I know I don't say it often but I love you guys and you all mean so much to me."


Miranda blew out her candles and this year she actually made a wish. She just wanted her husband back.

"Hey mom. I’m getting ready to go, dad's outside."

"Okay honey have a good time with your father.” she smiled kissing his cheeks

"Dad wants to see you. He said if you didn't mind."

"Umm sure, let me just tell Ben. I will be right back." She said walking over to Ben.

"Hey baby, I'm going to walk Tuck out." Miranda said wrapping her arm around his neck while he was sitting.

"I can do it or go with you." Ben said standing up.

"No honey it's fine. I have to talk to his father." She assured him.

"Okay well at least let me walk you to the door."

"If you insist."

Ben walked Miranda and Tuck to the door. Kissing her on the cheek and hugging Tuck.

"Tucker Jones." Miranda said softly as she saw him leaning on his car.

He took in her outfit and kept staring at the amount of cleavage she was showing. His eyes traveled up and down her body.

"My face is up here." She said clearing her throat.

"I'm sorry. You look beautiful." Tucker said sheepishly

Miranda eyes widened, her ex husband gave her an unsolicited compliment.

"Thank you." Miranda smiled softly. "What did you want to talk about?"

"Nothing I just wanted to give you a gift."

"you didn't have to the bracelet you helped Tuck get wash enough." She informed holding up her wrist.

"I know , but here." Tucker responded handing her a square box.

"Oh my goodness you didn't?" Miranda smiled and he nodded.

"A strawberry lemon shortcake from Kate's bakery in Baltimore. I haven't had this since.."

"I proposed to you." Tucker said smiling.

"Yep one of the better memories of our tanking relationship." Miranda said nonchalantly.

"It wasn't that bad." Tucker laughed.

"It wasn't great either." She retorted.

"But honestly Miranda it wasn't always bad."

Miranda had to refrain from rolling her eyes. She didn't want to sit here and stand outside reminiscing about their past relationship. She wondered why he was even doing all of this.

"It wasn't, but it doesn't matter anymore. I’m catching a chill so I need to go back inside thank you so much for the cake it was sweet and very thoughtful."

"You welcome and I heard about Ben.”

So this is why he's being nice Miranda thought to herself.
Her husband didn't remember her and he thought he could swoop back in.

"I had no doubt that you did. Seeing as though our son has been staying with you for weeks. Have a goodnight Tucker Jones." Miranda said walking back inside.

Ben looked up and saw Miranda walking back in. He took the box out her hand sitting it on the table and immediately pulled her to the dance floor.

The two joined others on the dance floor doing line dances until her feet were tired and she took a break for something to drink.

Excuse me is your name Google? Because you have everything I've been searching for." Ben asked coming up behind her.

"You are so corny." Miranda said pushing Ben in his chest laughing hard and he winced.

"Baby what's wrong?" She asked concerned.

"Nothing I'm fine. Ben stated.

"Does your chest hurt? Do you have heart burn?" What did you eat?" She rambled concerned.

"Miranda I promise you I’m fine."

"Okay, if you say so." She responded unconvinced.

As the party came to a close. Ben carried all of Miranda's gifts to the car putting them in the back seat.

He didn't know one person could receive so many gifts. It was almost ridiculous.

Miranda said her goodbyes to her guest and friends before meeting Ben at the car. He opened her door for her and she got inside

"I'm glad you had a good time Miranda." Ben spoke pulling into the driveway.

"Thank you so much Ben." Miranda sang.

"Don't thank me. You deserve it." He replied.

"I love you." Miranda blurted out then quickly covered her hand over her mouth. She didn't want to force the man that she was in love with to say it back.

" You can say how you feel. You don't have to change it." Ben said seriously.

"I just wish that you were you again." Miranda said tearfully

"Miranda I love you too. These past few months. I have been falling in love with you and as crazy as this sounds I will always love you. Even if I were to forget all of this tomorrow I would still fall in love with you again.

I know that we have memories and love and moments that I might not ever remember, but I'm here and we can create more and I want to create more because I'm in love with you. You can swipe my memory and drop me off on the other side of the country and I will find my way back to you.

People who are meant to be find their way back. They may take detours and this was one of them, but they're never lost. Ben said sincerely looking into her eyes.

Miranda was silent for a while just staring at him.

"Are you hearing me Miranda?”

"Yes," she whispered as she glanced at his lips. He gently caressed her cheek and gazed in her eyes before bending down and he allowed their lips to gently brush against each other in a whisper of a touch. The feel of her lips against his took his breath away every time.

He leaned in and kissed her again, this time stronger, she felt dizzy with want and need, as the sensation of desire spread throughout her body. Her arms made their way around his neck, as she parted her lips, inviting his tongue in. He took the invitation and slid his tongue in her mouth, tasting her, yet still craving her. He wrapped his hands around her and pulled her closer to him.  Miranda unclicked her seatbelt to get closer to him.

She moaned into his mouth, and he knew they both needed and wanted more. He started a trail of kisses along her neck, gently sucking and nipping as she arched her neck and clasped a hand on the back of his head, pulling him closer.

Miranda pulled away and opened her car door not waiting for him. She needed to get inside the house now.

Ben met her at the door as she struggled to unlock it hands shaking.

As soon as the door shut they were on each other once again. She felt the wet heat between her legs and knew exactly what she wanted. She moved her hands between them and started unbuttoning his shirt. She pushed it from his shoulders and moved her hands along the massive expanse of his shoulders and back.

Miranda awed and stared at him as the light from the window showed his naked chest.

"Ben when did you get this?" Miranda asked looking at his fresh tattoo of their wedding date and her name in cursive in between heart beat lines.

"I got it last week." He answered.

"Why? You didn't have too."

"I never want to forget you. I Always want to know you the woman who owns my heart. Past, present and future."

Miranda cried pulling him to her and kissing him passionately. Ben followed her lead and unzipped the back of her dress pushing it off her shoulders. She unbuckled his belt and unbuttoned his pants. He wrapped his arms around her and with incredible ease, lifted her and she instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist. She could feel his erection against her core. She trembled, whimpering as she rocked against his length. He groaned softly, low in his throat.

"Bedroom." He whispered in her ear, sending tingles down her spine.

He walked them into the bedroom and placed her on the bed where he joined her, kissing her deeply, making his way down her body. Ben skimmed his fingers along her waist before effortlessly sliding her pants off. He sat back and gazed at her clad in only her black panties and bra.

"You're so beautiful," he said as his eyes swept over her body. "So beautiful."

She blushed and felt the need to cover herself from his tender gaze, but he slid her panties down her thighs before she even had a chance.

He trailed a tongue from her waist to her bra and quickly removed it and lowered his head, taking a breast in his mouth. Miranda moaned and arched her back as she held his head against her. He moved his lips to her other breast, licking and sucking on it, eliciting more moans from her. He kissed his way down her torso, stopping at her navel with gentle kisses and touches until she was trembling with need. He placed kisses on the sensitive skin of her hipbone, before gently sucking on it, drawing her hips off of the bed. Every time his lips touched her skin, she felt herself losing more control. Her breathing was choppy and she was moaning loudly. By the time he got to her center, she was incredibly wet with need.

He placed kisses on her over and over again. She arched her back and moaned his name as he moved his tongue through her wet folds and gently licked her clit before pulling it into his mouth, sucking and licking as he savored the taste and feel of her on his tongue. She gripped the sheets and tried to hold on to her release she felt building in the pit of her stomach, but it was no use and she came hard, her juices spilling on his tongue.

"Oh God Ben Warren." Miranda screamed.

He kissed his way up her body, until their lips were joined again. She moved her hands to his boxers and started pushing them down as she kissed along his collarbone and chest, splaying her hands across the expanse of his back. He rid himself of his underwear.

Miranda took his hard, thick cock in her petite hands, rubbing her hands up and down it's rigid length, feeling him twitch with each caress of her hand. Ben placed a hand on her, stopping her. "If you don't stop, this isn't going to end the way either of us wants it to."

Miranda chuckled pouting. Him moving so fast she wanted to taste him.

"Wait do we use condoms?" Ben questioned wearily.

"No get up here." Miranda giggled.

Ben settled between her legs, and slid into her. Her eyes fluttered close as he moved deeper inside her.

"Benjaminnnn." she moaned as he moved inside her with long, slow strokes. She wrapped her arms and legs around him, pulling him closer as he kissed along her collarbone and neck. He sucked and bit her neck as he moved in and out of her with long, deep strokes. She thrust her hips up, meeting his strokes as he hit her spot over and over again.

"Please don't stop." She was moaning so loudly, she barely recognized her own voice.

"You feel so good," Ben whispered in her ear as he thrust even deeper inside her and moved into a circular motion.

Miranda closed her eyes once again and threw her head back at the pleasure of his movements. She gripped his back, feeling the deep muscles underneath her fingertips.
Ben pulled her leg over his shoulder so he could go in much deeper and at a faster pace

"Fuck!" Miranda whimpered, this new position making her quiver around him.

Her jaw went slack as the rest of her muscles tightened in preparation for her oncoming orgasm. Her body had become so sensitive to his that she could barely take it. Her mouth was trying to form words, to tell him what he was doing to her, but only nonsensical gibberish was coming out. And the whole time, his mouth stayed right by her ear, groaning her name over and over. When his thumb swiped her clit it was all she could take.

Her back arched high in the air and she screamed as she came. Her walls clamped down on him as he jerked and came.

He collapsed to the side, breathing hard and trying to return feeling to his legs. Before he could fully recover, Miranda was straddling him.

"Again," she demanded, taking his hardening cock in her hand and guiding him to core.

It was going to be a long night.
