This Love Is Ours (On Hold)

The News

Ben and I walk into the silent house. We made their way to their bedroom in silence. "Miranda what's wrong. You're never this quiet. Baby, you just became chief of surgery. You should be happy and talking a lot. Yet, your quiet as a mouse. I know something is bothering you. So, please tell me what it is. Please," he pleaded with worry written all over his face. I couldn't not tell him when he looks at me like that. "I just.. I feel.. Okay. You know that feeling you get when your happy but upset at the same time. Well, I don't know whether to be happy that I got the job I've been waiting for my whole career or worried that miss. Perky will keep flirting with my husband. Or scared that she might actually take him. Or scared that our marriage will fall apart like my last one. Ben, I'm just worried and scared. I don't want to lose you," I said as a tear slipped from my eyes. He wiped it away with his thumb.
"Miranda, you know that I love you. You know that I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. No one is taking me away from you because I love you way too much to let something like that happen. Don't let her ruin your mood because your letting her win. Be happy. Celebrate. Don't worry about all of that right now," he said and that's all it took. I started to cry and he just held me and told me everything will be ok and that he is here for me. He picked me up bridal style and carried me to bed. He undressed me and put my pajamas on me. He put his PJs on and crawled in bed. I was still crying and he just held me again. This time I held him back.
"I love you so much. You don't understand. I don't think I can live without you, ever. I don't want to live without you. You make me whole, complete. You are the light that leads me through the darkness and you always will be," I said to him. He kissed me and said that I was the same for him. "You know people tell me that your too good for me. They say that you deserve better and that's why when she flirted with you, I got scared because she can get anyone she wanted and that includes you. Not that I wouldn't put up a fight. Its not that I wouldn't put up a fight, its just that no matter what she can get you without me noticing. I don't know, maybe I'm just acting like a insecure, jealous teenager," I said as I played with his chest hair.
"Hey," he said as he pulled my chin up to look at me in the eyes," don't talk like that. No you aren't acting like a insecure, jealous teenager. Your acting like a grown woman voicing her feelings to her husband. You are so much better than her. I don't see any other woman but you. You're it for me. I don't want no one else but you. Don't listen to anyone else because if they knew us than they would see how you are so much better than any other woman. If anything, they should be the ones jealous of you and your looks. I should be the one jealous that you're gonna leave me for some other guy. I guess we both are scared that the other is gonna leave. Now we know that neither of us are going anywhere," he said. This made me smile. I cuddled closer to him and I soon felt my self drifting off into a peaceful sleep.
I wake up the next morning and realise that my husband isn't in bed with me. Then, everything that happened yesterday comes back to me. I get up and and grab my robe. I walk out of my room and hear people talking. I turn the corner to see Ben, Callie, Arizona, Sofia, Richard, and Catherine sitting in my dining room and living room. Ben comes over to me and kisses my forehead and then goes for my lips. I lean back and push him away. "Morning breathe. I'll be back," I said and with that I walk to my bedroom. I changed into some jeans and a shirt that I stole from Ben on our 7th date. Yeah. I keep track. Anyways, I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. I went back to the dining room and gave my husband a kiss. It started to get out of hand and I had to stop before we did something that my friends don't want to see me doing with my husband if you know what I mean. I walked over to the living room with Ben in tow. "Hey guys. Not to be rude, but what the hell y'all doing in my house at nine o'clock in the morning on a Saturday," I asked.
"Oh,wow. We can't come over to say hi," Callie asked.
"Uh no," I said.
"We just wanted to come over and this was the only time we had off. We all have to go back in later today. So we all figured we would come over and catch up," Arizona explained.
"Oh ok," I said. "Well give me and Ben one second and then we can catch up," I said as I pulled Ben to our bedroom. "Thank for last night. I really needed that. But I have some news for you before I tell all of them out there," I said. When I said that, he looked confused.
"No problem. That's what I'm here for and everything I said was true. I really did mean every word I said and what news," he said.
"Ben, I'm pregnant. We are having a baby. I just got the results back yesterday. I'm one month," I said all at once. He had a blank face on and I started to get nervous. "Ben?" I felt like I was going to cry because I'm not sure if he was happy or not. I mean we never talked about kids. His blank expression turned into a big cheesy grin and he picked me up. I yelled and the I started to giggle. He put me down and gave me a long passionate kiss. I hugged him tight and I felt like I was about to cry from all this happiness, but I was also scared.
"Ben I'm scared you'll think I'm a bad mother to the new baby," I said as a tear slipped down my cheek.
"No baby. I see how you are with Tuck. You are a great mother. Just because Tucker did or said something, doesn't mean I will feel the same way. The only thing that I agree with him on so far is that you are beautiful and sexy. Miranda, don't worry so much. I told you last night that I'm not going anywhere so don't worry so much," he said and I smiled. I wiped my eyes and kissed him one last time before we made our way out to our guests. "Sorry for the wait. We had to talk about something that we actually want to share with you," Ben said. I smiled at him and nodded my head.
"Oh really," Callie said with a smirk.
"Yeah. Uhm. Me and Ben are having a baby," I said looking at Ben with a smile.
"Ha. Pay up. We told you! I knew it," Callie shouted. I seen Arizona pay Callie and Richard pay Catherine. I was stunned.
"What the hell," I said. "You were betting on us," I asked.
"Me and Catherine saw the paper with the results. Richard and Arizona tried to make up excuses, so we came here to find out," Callie said.
"Wow," I said. I had no words.
"Sorry, but congrats. I'm happy for you guys. Ben is going to make a great father and your already a great mother," Callie said.
"I am so proud. I'm glad you guys are taking this next step. You guys are going to be great. Not that you guys aren't already with Tuck," Catherine said.
"Congrats. How far are you," Arizona asked. Damn. She all up in my business. Just kidding.
"I'm a month in, but I only found out yesterday," I said.
"Wow. Miranda. I just. I can't believe your going to do this again. I mean doesn't it hurt," Richard said making us all laugh. "No, but congrats. I'm happy for you guys. When you call your parents today, please tell Will and Elena I said hello," He said.
"Actually, I didn't get to tell Ben yet, but I called both of our families down here for an emergency. I didnt tell any of them anything. They don't even know that they were all called. So why don't you all join us for dinner tomorrow," I said. They all agreed and Ben just smiled. We haven't seen our families since the wedding, so we are pretty happy to have them over for a few days or so. We all talked a little longer and then they left for work. As for me and my husband, we decided to celebrate with a little adult time.
