The next morning Bailey came to check on Meredith, bringing discharge papers with her. "Typically she would have to sign them, but clearly she isn't in the right headspace and you happen to have an in with the chief so he said either one of you could sign them and it would be okay." She explained as she handed the discharge papers to Addison who looked them over with Arizona before signing them and handing them back.

"Mewedif go home?" Meredith perked up from her spot in Arizona's arms, a smile tugging at her lips as she looked at Bailey with a hopeful twinkle dancing in her eyes.

"Yes, sweetie but you still need to take it easy until your boo boo is fully healed." Bailey explained.

"Mewedif no fwop on mama an mommy? Mewedif no hop wike bunny?" Meredith pouted.

"No, but I am ordering your mommies to give you all the cuddles you want and wait on you hand and foot until you're all better." Bailey smiled.

"Dey would do dat anyway." Meredith giggled. "Dey wub Mewedif."

"Yes we do." Arizona nodded, kissing Meredith's forehead.

"Dey also bewy pwotectwive of Mewedif. Specially mama." Meredith smiled at Addison, making grabby hands for her. The redhead let out a soft chuckle as she gently took Meredith out of Arizona's arms and settled her in her lap, kissing her temple.

"Don't worry bunny, we'll still have fun." Addison promised.

"Otay, I twust you." Meredith nodded. "Go home now?"

"You guys are free to go!" Bailey confirmed. "If you need anything, just call me."

"We will, thank you." Arizona smiled as she stood up and grabbed their bags. Addison gently lifted Meredith onto her hip before lowering her into the wheelchair, pushing her through the halls.

"Mama! Go fwast!" Meredith giggled.

"Sorry bunny, I can't go any faster. That's not safe and I don't want my sweet bunny to get hurt." Addison apologized.

"Otay." Meredith sighed. "Mama sit wif Mewedif?" She asked as they approached the car.

"Of course, bunny." Addison smiled and lifted her out of the wheelchair, getting her situated in the backseat while Arizona ran the wheelchair back to the hospital.

"Ready to go?" Arizona asked as she climbed in the driver's seat, looking back at Addison and Meredith.

"Wes! We go home!" Meredith cheered. "I has question."

"What's your question, sweet pea?" Arizona glanced at Meredith in the rear view mirror as she maneuvered the car out of the parking lot.

"Wexie come ova?" Meredith asked hopefully. "She no has wowk today."

"How about we get home and get you all cozy and snug on the couch and then I'll call her and you can ask? Does that sound okay to you, bunny?" Addison tucked Meredith's hair behind her ears as she looked at her with a soft smile.

"Dat sound otay mama." Meredith nodded. "Mewedif wike Wexie." She added with a beaming smile. When they got to the house, they quickly got Meredith in the house, changing her pull-up before laying her on the couch with several stuffed animals and blankets. "Bailey says you gotta cuddle Mewedif." She reminded them in a serious tone as she held her arms out. Addison and Arizona looked at each other, shaking their heads with fond smiles as she carefully sat down on the couch. Meredith's head was on Addison's lap while her legs were stretched out in Arizona's.

"Is that better sweet pea?" Arizona asked as she turned the TV on, quickly finding SpongeBob before setting the remote back down.

"Wes mommy." Meredith nodded. "Mama call Wexie now?" Addison chuckled and leaned down to kiss Meredith's forehead before taking her phone out and dialing Lexie's number, putting it on speaker.
