lexi greys twin. Callie X Oc

Chapter thirteen

Payton's pov-

It's been a week since I visited the hospital and Derek had visited the twins two day's ago but I haven't heard from him like I normally do so him and Meredith must be having some fun.

Suddenly I was broken out of my thoughts by my phone ringing.

"Hey baby, what's up?" I asked my beautiful girlfriend when I answered the phone, picking up Lexi when she started to become fussy.

"You have to come to the hospital now, I've already called the daycare and they said they would take the twins for as long as we need." I could hear sadness and panic in her voice.

"Callie what's going on?" I asked confused, but still packed up everything we would need.

"I'll explain when you when you get here, please come quick."

"Okay I'm just getting the twins just incase milk now." I sighed as I grab everything I possibly could think of. "I'll see you in around twenty minutes."

"Okay, I love you and I'll see you soon." She sighed before I replied and hung up.

"Uh they were fed around an hour ago, there is a feed each in the bag but I will pump soon and have an intern bring it down. Tori gets fussy when falling asleep you need to swap the bottle for a paci as quick as you can or she will scream and cry, Lexi is chill the only thing you have to worry about is putting her down before she falls asleep." I ramble, I haven't left them with anyone but Callie and we know everything about them so leaving them here is a bit overwhelming especially when all the daycare workers are giving me a look I can't quite place.

"It will be fine Dr Grey, if anything happens we will call you or Dr Torres."

"Okay-" I give the girls one last kiss on the forehead each before pulling away and handing the bag to the only over woman around me not holding one of my babies. "Okay ill see you later."

With that I leave, walking towards the floor and room Callie told me to meet her.

As I walked there, I kept getting sympathetic looks.

"Callie? What's going in?"
I asked when I finally saw my girlfriend and walked into her arms.

"Derek died last night." She whispered into my ear as I clinged to her.

"What?" I asked, I could feel my heart breaking.

Derek had became like my brother since Lexi died and I can't believe he's gone.

"I'm so sorry baby. I'm so sorry." She whispered in my ear, I could feel her to start to rock me side to side.

"Where's mer?" I really just want to be there for my sister so my feelings can be pushed aside until I am alone, or at home in Callie's arms.

"She's in the room, that's why I got you to meet me here."

I pull away, look towards the room in question and saw my big sister laying in the hospital bed, staring at the
ceiling.

After a couple moments, I give Callie one last hug before walking into the room and shutting the door behind myself again.

"Hey Mer." I whispered and gently climbed into the bed, wrapping my arms around her waist.

Allowing her to just lean against me.

"I don't want to explain again."
She whispered, I could physically hear the pain in her voice.

"You don't have too, let's just cuddle if you want."

"Thank you." She sobbed out as she turned in my arms and hid her face in my neck.

I just start to rub her back gently.

It was now Derek's funeral, we were now at the dream house.

I had just went go get Mer a drink, she was sat on the sofa staring into nothing.

I went to head back but I spotted my father standing at the front door, talking to Richard.

What the fuck is he doing here?

I quickly go back to Mer, I gave her the drink before telling her I was going to was going to the bathroom, even though she probably wasn't even listening.

Callie's pov-

I watched as Payton ran off to the bathroom.

I excused myself from the conversation I was having with a Christina who was back for the funeral.

I quickly walked into the bathroom and thankfully the door was unlocked.

I locked the door behind me when I saw her sat on the edge of the bath tub.

"Oh baby.."

"My dad's here, I'm trying to be there for my sister who just lost her husband while I'm also falling apart and now my dad that kicked me out and forced me to grow up quickly is here and it's making it harder." She sobs. " I cannot make this day about me, it's about Derek and Mer."

"Baby, you are allowed to fall apart as well. Derek was like your brother, you had a movie night every Friday even after he moved you found away. You are allowed to be upset that he's not here anymore." I tried to comfort her.

" no I'm not this is about Meredith. She's falling apart. I need to be for her for her like she was there for me when I was falling apart." She stood up, looking in the mirror trying to sort herself out. " I can't let my dad get to me. He made his decision to kick me out so now I'm making mine. I'm going to blank him like he's blanked me and I'm gonna help my sister. I don't care if he was an alcoholic like Richard said he kicked me out before that. Anyway, this isn't about me it's about Meredith."

With that she was gone, she had left to sit in silence with Meredith like she had for the last two hours.

————
It's been 9 months since the funeral and Meredith leaving.

Payton was a crying mess for the first couple months but she's better, she's came to terms with Derek's death.

She's not over it and is still upset but I don't think she will ever be over it.

Mer leaving made it worse, she missed her sister, niece and nephew.

But we are back to our normal life, Payton went back to work 2 months after the funeral and things at home settled down.

The twins were now a year old and absolutely adorable. They started walking recently and they speak well. I say speak they can say mama, momma, sofsof and a couple easy words.

I was thinking about proposing soon, but it just felt wrong without Meredith because I know that Payton would want her there.

We were currently cuddled up on the sofa all three of our daughters around us when Payton got a call.

" yes, this is she."

" yeah, that's my sister."

" yeah I'll be there soon. Thank you."

"I have to go, mer had a baby and I'm her emergency contact." She rushes to get Tori off her chest and grab everything around her that she would need.

" go I've got the kids."

"Thank you, I'll call you wen I get there. Love you."

And with that she was gone out the door."
