A Healing Love

14

Ben woke up in the room alone. He sighed and got dressed. She had sex with him and then left. He walked out of the room and went to find where Miranda had gone. He went to the OR board but her name wasn't on there so he went to the peds floor.

"Ben why are you still in this hospital" Arizona asked once she saw him

"Where is Miranda" He asked

"Ben"

"You told me she needed convincing. I convinced her to date me. Now I'm trying to convince her that I love her"

"She went home" She sighed

"Is everything okay" Ben felt worry rise in him "Is the baby okay"

"She felt dizzy so I said she should go home"

"Dizzy. Where does she live? Is she okay" He felt like his heart was running a 5k. So many things rushed through his mind

"Ben, I don't know if I can just tell you where she lives"

"Tell me" He put his hands on her shoulders " Arizona, please. We haven't known each other long. I didn't get to properly introduce myself but I really do care about Miranda and she's having my baby"

"Fine" She sighed. She wrote down Miranda's address and gave it to Ben. "I had a whole list of threats and things to say to you about hurting my family but I will save it"
He got the message so he nodded and ran out to get to his car. He drove to the place and knocked on the door repeatedly.
"Miranda" he knocked again and pulled out his phone to call her. She didn't answer and he was getting increasingly worried. He was restraining himself from full-blown banging on the door. Finally, the door opened

"Miranda" Ben started to breathe a breath of relief but he still felt anxious when he saw it was the young boy instead that opened the door.

"Oh hey little man where's your mom" He asked

"She's lying down"

"Oh okay. Tuck right" Ben smiled
The boy stared at him

"Your mom probably told you not to talk to strangers right? I'm a doctor and I'm a friend of your mom's. My name is Ben"

"You save lives" Tuck asked

"Yes buddy I do" Ben nodded
Tuck took his hand and led him into the living room.

"Help" He pointed to his mom lying on the floor

"Miranda" Ben ran over and checked her pulse to see if she was breathing. To his relief, she was breathing but her pulse was weak.
"Okay buddy you want to save lives too"

Tuck stood there and just stared at Ben. He was terrified. Ben walked over to him.
"Tuck, your name is William right"
Tuck nodded
"Well, William means Resolute Protector" Ben smiled "What that means is you are strong and you look out for people. I know you love your mom and I do too so we gotta help her" Ben handed Tuck his phone

"What do I do"

"Call 911" Ben tried to remain calm so he didn't scare the young boy.

"Ben, you help her" Tuck asked

"I'm going to help. We need to get mommy to the hospital. So you calling 911 will do me a huge favor"
Tuck nodded and pressed the numbers on the phone. He stared at Ben while he waited for an answer

"Hello, my mommy won't wake up" He whispered into the phone
He started to sniffle so Ben ran over to him and took the phone. He relayed the important information to dispatch and kept a watchful eye on Miranda. Once the ambulance came and they took her to the hospital Ben drove with Tuck back to the hospital. He called Chester on the way who told him he'd be in Seattle as soon as he could. He didn't know GreySloan's OB department and he wanted the best so he called the best guy he knew.
He ran to the hospital with Tuck on his back
