I Won't Let Nobody Hurt You

Two weeks later Addison and Arizona woke up at the sound of their alarms, exchanging a glance over Meredith's head before gently waking her up. "Mer, honey, we have to get up."

"Noooo!" Meredith whined in response, clinging to Addison as she fought to stay asleep. The redhead slightly winced as her breasts were very tender due to the lactation pills she had been taking.

"Bunny, we need to talk to big Mer. You can come back out later." Addison kissed her forehead. "But right now we need our big girl."

"Couwt today?" Meredith looked up at Addison with big eyes.

"Yes bunny, we have to go to court today." Addison nodded.

"No wanna go." Meredith whimpered. "Big Mewedif no wanna go eitha."

"We don't want to go either, sweet pea, but we have to." Arizona sighed and reached over to run her fingers through Meredith's hair. "It'll just be for a little while and then it'll be all over and we never have to think about it again."

"Otay." Meredith sighed heavily, looking up at Addison. "Nuwse fiwst?" The redhead looked at the clock and saw that they had a little bit of time before they had to leave.

"Sure, bunny." Addison smiled and adjusted her shirt. "Just for a little while though, you can nurse more later if you want to." Meredith nodded and latched on, her eyes widening with a happy sparkle as she slightly pulled away to smile up at Addison.

"Milkies!" Meredith squealed before latching back on. Arizona and Addison both chuckled at her reaction, watching as the little blonde's entire body relaxed as she continued nursing.

"Your milk chose a good day to come in." Arizona laughed and lightly kissed Addison's temple. "Does it feel weird?"

"No." Addison shook her head. "I thought it would be it doesn't. It feels like I was always meant to do this." She smiled.

"I think you were always meant to do this." Arizona hummed. "You were definitely meant to be her mama."

"And you were meant to be her mommy." Addison smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind Arizona's ear. "Okay bunny, can you switch to the other side?"

"Mowe milkies!" Meredith cheered as she switched to Addison's other breast. The redhead and Arizona smiled softly down at her as Addison ran her fingers through her hair. When the little blonde had finished nursing, she sat up and waved at the two older women with a sad smile. "Bye mama. Bye mommy."

"We'll see you later bunny. I love you." Addison kissed her forehead.

"I love you sweet pea, don't worry you can come back out later." Arizona assured her as she kissed her temple.

"Wub you too." Meredith smiled, closing her eyes and taking a deep breath. When she opened her eyes they were less hazy as she blinked a couple of times. "I don't want to do this." She groaned and laid her head on Addison's shoulder.

"I know baby, neither do we." Addison scratched Meredith's scalp soothingly. "But we both believe in you and know that you can do this."

"All you have to do is tell the truth." Arizona added. "Izzie tortured you for no reason and you signed the house over to Alex because you were no longer living there. No one made you do anything, it was your decision."

"The only reason signing the house over to Alex even became an idea in anyone's heads was to get Izzie out." Meredith sighed. "Doesn't that make it seem like I didn't want Izzie living there but I signed the house over to Alex because I couldn't handle the eviction process? Which is Izzie's entire argument."
