It's a few days later and Meredith was still in the hospital and at the moment asleep as the babies were in the nicu and they most likely would be for another both especially with how small they were but they are quintuplets so it's self explanatory.

Meredith had suggested calling Addison as the last time she delivered quints four out five of them lived, but Meredith and Derek just both hoped that they would all live to be healthy and happy one day.

They still didn't have any names picked out as it was hard naming one baby let alone five. Meredith was always looking threw a book of hers at she had since she was a teenager even tho she didn't want kids when she was younger she thought it might come in handy to hold onto, for a friend well that's just what she told herself to try and make her mother proud but it didn't really help.

Derek was in the nicu starting at each one of the babies every few minutes taking his time admiring their looks hoping some names would pop into his head as he did so. He knew Meredith would want to see them, but she had just been cut open and had five babies taken out from her and literally died while doing so. So she had to take it easy which of course being as stubborn as she was she hated it.

She was terrified something would happen to one of them and she wouldn't be there or one of the babies would end up dying without her ever being able to meet them first. And that was the last thing she wanted.

She already knew that they were gonna be in there for much longer than she wanted and as long as someone was with the she was and happy and that someone was Derek.

She waited and waited for Derek to return with some, any news of the quints, she was getting more and more nervous as the time passed, she only wished her her babies to be well and nothing less.

She sat in bed as tears were starting to run down her cheeks at the fear that something bad had happened.
It was then that Derek walked into her room.

"Meredith" he said

"Derek, how are they?" She asked, in a broken voice

"Oh Meredith l, their bad well as they can be, their still in the nicu, Arizona's watching them very closely" he said as he walked over to her and sat down on the side of her bed.

"I don't want them to die" she said as tears streamed down her face as she started to sob, she let it all go everything she was feeling, she let out in tears, as she dropped her head to his chest as she cried.

"I know" he said as he pulled her close, laying her head on his shoulder as she sobbed

"We'll call Addison, she's one of  the best neonatal surgeons in the world, the last time she had a case with quints fours out of the five of them lived" he said as he rubbed her back.

"I don't want any of them to die!" She sobbed

"I know, I don't want them to either" he whispered

"Addison is their best chance at living" he whispered, a tear slipping down as cheek at the pain he, his wife, and five newborn children were all feeling. He wanted nothing more then for them all to be painless but he knew that nothing about this journey would be easy or painless.

They were both terrified at any thought of loosing any of their children, they were scared oboist raising ten children as anyone else would, but they did not want any less then ten children as they loved all of their children equally.

They knew Addison would be in best interest for their babies and that she would do anything to save all of their newborn children but it still kept them worried sick.

"How do they look?" She asked as she slowly pulled away from his embrace

"Their beautiful, and very tiny" he smiled a he held her hands in his.

"They didn't mess up their gender in the sonogram, their still the same?" She asked, making sure she still had the same about of bus then she did girls.

"Yes, their all the same" he smiled

"We have ten kids" she smiled as she was still a bit shocked at the fact that they had ten children

"We have ten kids" he smiled as he leaned down to her and pressed a soft kiss to her lips.

"We'll pray for them" she said as she pulled away from the kiss

"We'll pray for them" he agreed and he kissed me cheek and pulled her in for another hug. Hoping all would be well and that all five of the quints would live even tho they knew there was a large possibility that they wouldn't.
