AN: Welcome to another chapter of Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)! I hope you enjoyed the last chapter! I can't believe we're so close to the finish line, and then onto book two! I am so amazed at the love and support I get for this story! 

What are you looking forwards to the most in book 2? 

Also two quick question: 

1. Would you be okay with a short chapter for: The Girl With No Name, focusing more on Eddie, or would you like a complete chapter, or for me to skip it.

2. Would you like Migration and Flight to be a double post? Or would you like them to be posted separately? 

Timeline: April  2012 (approximately a few days after the previous chapter)

Every little kid knows the words ... to the song. "The foot bone's connected to the leg bone." I think you're beautiful. "The leg bone's connected to the knee bone." In med school ... you learn, it's a little more complicated than that.

FLASHBACKS:

Cristina remembered the pain of being impaled by the icicle, and the hazy memory of Owen Hunt standing above her.

***********************************

She could remember finding him outside her apartment before they started dating. The one she shared with Callie. Sitting on the stoop.

"I think you're beautiful." Owen informed her, as Cristina looked at him shocked, not expecting that.

***********************************

Cristina and Owen standing on the grates in the bowels of the basement. Letting the exhilarating thrill of having the warm, hot air rushing past them. And, laughing, enjoying the moment of wonder and joy. The rush and thrill of feeling almost like you were floating.

***********************************

 "I'm trying to love you." Owen informed his wife. "Why won't you let me?" 

Cristina looked at him with shock. Really that was what he wanted to talk about?

***********************************

Cristina looked at him as if he was crazy. This was a baby, it wasn't a compromise. He knew that she didn't want kids and surprise, surprise, when she did end up accidentally getting pregnant, she didn't want it. She felt no maternal pull or love for it. She didn't want it. She wouldn't love it in the way it needed. Cristina wouldn't magically wake up wanting to be a mommy. No, she would resent the baby. And, she saw what resentment of a baby, a child did. Ellis Grey resented Meredith and ended up being cold and cruel. Or what about Constance Elliot? That women psychologically abused Eddie for years.
