ANDREWS POV
I've done something. That something being applied for a foster licence. Perk of being a doctor, my application gets rushed and approved within a few days like it has now. I applied a few days ago but today it hit me that if I don't get approved, I won't see Isabella again.
- y/n : Does Carina know?
- Andrew : No. Only you do
- y/n : You need to tell your sister
- Andrew : I don't even know if I'm approved. I'm meeting someone tomorrow to find out if I am
- y/n : You're really doing this? Okay. I'm coming to the meeting. What time it is? Where is it?
- Andrew : My house, midday.
- y/n : Shit. That's when the social worker is coming here to see how soon we can discharge Isabella
- Andrew : Can you like push it back? I want to be there and if I've been approved then she can't notify other families because like I'm there
- y/n : I can try. No promises
Okay, if I'm approved then the first thing I'm doing is contacting the social worker. I want Isabella to live with me. I want to be her dad.
- Andrew : I'm going to go see Isabella. If she can't live with me then I want to spend as much time as I can with her
- y/n : Okay. Understand. You go spend time with her. I'll be around the hospital, so will your sister
- Andrew : Yeah
Okay. Off to see Isabella
YOUR POV
I can't say I'm surprised that Andrew wants to adopt Isabella, I saw it coming if I'm honest. I think Carina knows it's coming but I think she's kinda upset because she wanted to be the first one to have kids.
- Carina : Hello bella
- y/n : Your brother is trying to adopt Isabella
- Carina : Huh. Okay
- y/n : Are you mad? You'll have children one day
- Carina : I want children first
- y/n : It's not a competition love. You might get to be auntie Carina
- Carina : Hmm I guess so
- y/n : Come here. I love you
- Carina : I love you too
She wraps herself round me until her pager goes for her to check on a labouring mom. Reluctantly she leaves and not long later my pager goes. It's Andrew paging me to the NICU.
- Andrew : Is that normal? Should she be-
- y/n : Andrew, she's trying to sleep. She's fine. She's obviously comfy in your arms
- Andrew : She's never done this before. She always sleeps in the incubator
- y/n : As long as you support her head and hold her how I showed you then you'll be fine. If she gets heavy then put her in the incubator gently
- Andrew : I never realised how good you were with babies. Like you're good with the boys but they're 5, not a week old
- y/n : I mean Isabella can't hate you. She doesn't know how. She's too young to know what hate is. She doesn't need to know what loss is and that's why you need to be her dad. She doesn't need to loose another parental figure
Am I comforting both Deluca's today? It seems like it. Carina basically wants a baby like yesterday and Andrew doesn't want to loose his baby. I just want to sleep. The things I would do for a nap right now. I've got to go home, walk Loki and Thor because Andrew doesn't go home and Carina's shift always overruns.

MWAH XWe are definitely just going to eat sweets and Doritos and get mine and Carinas bed all crumby but it'll be fun. I'll change the sheets before she gets home. She'll never know.
- y/n : Heyyy Amypoo
- Amelia : Sup stinker
- y/n : I'm still slightly offended your nickname for me is stinker
- Amelia : I call the boys stinker and I guess it's just rubbed off onto you. Ha like a bad smell
- y/n : Ugh. Come on. Pizza's on the way and snacks are already upstairs. It's sister bonding night
- Amelia : You mean recovering addict bonding. Sister bonding would require Lizzie, Nancy and Kathleen
- y/n : Yeah I'm not ready for that
- Amelia : We should probably go see them soon. It's been like 2 and a half years
- y/n : I'm aiming for like 5 years. Seems reasona-
- Amelia : No. We're going to see Mom and Lizzie soon.
She can. I don't want to go
