HUSH HUSH, Mark Sloan

𝟎𝟏𝟓, "𝐈'𝐦 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐘𝐨𝐮"

Bree knew how she and Mark had agreed to take things slow for the sake of their baby. She hadn't told anyone she was pregnant yet apart from Belle. Knowing how she and Mark were waiting to see if everything was okay with the baby.

She had stayed with him for a few nights. He had stayed in the spare bedroom. Wanting Bree to be comfortable.

She had told him she didn't mind him sleeping in the same bed as her. But he wasn't going to push her into anything.

Bree walked into the kitchen and grinned. She saw Mark who was making her pancakes. "You don't need to do that," she said.

Mark rolled his eyes. "Sit down. Be quiet. And let me make my kid pancakes," he told her as he looked to her.

Bree nodded. She sat down and waited for Mark. He handed her a plate. "They're not the best. But you need to eat. The baby needs strength."

Bree smiled. "You're so sweet."

"I know."

Bree was sitting in the locker room at the hospital with Belle. Belle was thrilled that Bree was having a baby. It was something she knew her best friend had wanted

Cristina turned to look at her friends. "Owen washed my hair. And he told me to eat this grainy nut bar. And he booked me into surgery this morning. He is in charge of me. I'm a bride, and I'm going with it," she said.

Meredith shrugged. "But trauma guy didn't clear you."

"Yeah, but he said he'll figure that out."

Bree turned around. She looked at the staring people. "Yes. Okay, I am the crazy one. I am the one who freaks out and screams at people ... Like that," she mumbled. She was sick of the looks she was getting.

Belle turned to them. "Go gawk at each other for a while," she told them as the other pagers went off.

Meredith looked to Bree. "Are you okay?" She questioned.

Bree rolled her eyes. "Would everybody please just stop asking if I am okay? Okay?" She said as she grabbed her lab coat and walked off.

Belle went after her. She grabbed her. "Hey. Are you okay?" She asked.

Bree nodded. "I'm fine. I'm just... I don't know. I feel stressed. And it's the whole baby thing. I don't know how I feel about it," she said.

Belle smiled. "I know it's hard for you. But you're not alone. I'm here. And if you want, I can call my mom to be your OB while you're pregnant?"

Bree shook her head. "No. I don't want special treatment. I'm fine," she said as she looked to her.

A police car had dropped off Derek in the ambulance bay. April looked to him. "Dr. Shepherd, the chief is looking for you," she said.

"I know."

"You missed the wedding last night," April told him as she looked to him.

"I know."

"You smell like pee."

"I know."

Derek walked onto the elevator. He saw Bree there who looked to him. "What's up jailbird?" Bree said.

"Funny," Derek said as Bree got off. He forced Meredith to stay on the elevator with him. "Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm. How was the wedding?" He asked.

Meredith shrugged. "It was fine. I'm sorry you missed it," she said as she looked to him.
