Eternity

Forty Seven

"When John was alive" Demetri asks as we're in my office going through the many requirements to even be considered to adopt Jasmine "did you and he consider adopting a baby?"

"No" shaking my head no "I'm pretty sure it was because of his profession that he knew we wouldn't be considered" sighing as I shook my head "I need to talk to DJ"

"Is this the same DJ" he asks "whose husband recently died?"

"Months ago" nodding my head "she's a single mom of three living with her dad, aunt, uncle and cousins—she was there when John died and she needs me"

"Is it true your dad is seeing a therapist?" He asks

Placing my pen down waving to Demetri "Thank you! No normal human therapist can help him unless he shows his devil and even agrees to council him! I mean dad probably has the biggest issues in the universe and no normal human can help him"

"I'd be surprised if any therapist agrees to take him on" he says

Shaking my head "We still need to meet with that Laurel Castillo? She is technically Jasmine's legal guardian until the courts decide that we can even be her parents"

"I also looked up her father" Demetri adds "it's Jorge Castillo"

"The billionaire?" He nods his head "he won't be a problem, let's get a lawyer—who's the best lawyer we can get?"

"Let's go looking" he suggests

"I love you" we lean into one another briefly kissing before going back to the documents, I then see something "there's one thing we can do right now"

"What's that?" He asks

I show him and he smiles brightly "Marriage?"

"Yeah" nodding my head "I mean Amelia and Felix are still here, I can round up my friends and we can do a quick court house wedding"

"What about a big wedding?" He asks "I always imagined you walking down the aisle to me"

"One day" promising him "but right now this is for the baby"

"For the baby" he agrees

"Okay so" I ask Meredith coming into the room "I thought I saw George's mom?" Every time I bring the kids to heaven, I visit George who is happy to see me. I mean why wouldn't he?

"She's here because something's wrong with her" Meredith tells me as I sit down "and are you and Demetri really adopting a baby?"

Nodding my head yes "Yeah, I'm pretty sure when Demetri thinks of having a baby he thought I meant pushing another one of his kids with fat heads out of my vagina" they laugh as I shook my head "out of all my kids Talon's head was the fattest"

"Don't you mentally scar your kids?" Cristina asks

"What?" April asks

"Oh yeah" Meredith points to me "when Talon was ten, she told him how she breast fed him till he was like four" April looks at me horrified.
