Alex POV - two months later
I stare at the results and sigh.
'Shit, how am I going to explain this to them?'
I rub my forehead when my phone starts ringing.
I quickly answer it, "Hello?"
"Hi Mrs. Carrasco, just calling to confirm your appointment."
I bite my lip, "Yeah, I'll be there."
"We know how difficult this can be, but just know that we got it early and you have a great medical team."
I close my eyes, "I know and I appreciate that. Thank you."
"See you next week, Mrs. Carrasco."
"Bye."
I hang up and feel arms snake around my shoulders then a kiss pressed to my collar.
"Morning, honey." Serv whispers.
"Morning."
"You okay?"
I shake my head, "I'm just still in shock."
He presses a kiss to my shoulder, "You're going to be okay."
I close my eyes, "I know. I'm just worried about the kids."
He sighs, "They'll be okay. They have each other to lean on."
I turn in his hold, "Sawyer is going to freak out."
He bobs his head up and down, "She probably will."
I give him a look, "She for sure will and is going to want to drop everything to come to San Diego."
He smiles, "A testament to how much she loves you."
I sigh.
"Look babe, we reassure her and Q that the doctors caught it early and you'll need two surgeries. No chemo is the hope."
I nod and bite my lip, "This totally sucks."
He smiles sadly, "It totally does, but you're the strongest woman that I know. You'll get through it just like my mom did."
I feel my eyes fill with tears and he wipes his thumbs under my eyes.
"You're going to be okay." He says and presses a kiss to my lips.
"Good morning parental units." I pull back and wipe my eyes.
I turn and see Q who freezes, "What's wrong?"
I sigh, "We will talk about it later, yeah?"
"Uh, okay? Is everything okay?" She asks.
"Family meeting later, Sawyer will be here too." I say.
"But everything is okay?" She asks.
"Everything will be okay. We want to tell you guys together." Serv says.
She stares at us and takes a deep breath, "Okay."
She grabs a granola bar and walks out of the kitchen.
"We have two very anxious kids who are going to spiral and ask 3,000 questions tonight." I say.
"And we will answer all 3,000 of them." He says and pecks my lips.
I give him a small smile, "Okay."

"Do you know what this emergency family meeting is about?" Makena asks me.
