-Hey, has she taken it yet?-Maggie said as she walked in
-She's busy right now, would you like to come back later Mags?
-I'm her sister too, Meredith
-I know Maggie, she's just too nervous. This isn't a play on a theater at Broadway Avenue, this is serious.
-I know, what are you implying?
-Nothing, it's just-
-Actually, you don't have to explain anything. Maybe that came out of your mouth wrong, just like everything you say. Let me know when you wanna let me see Amelia, ok?
-Maggie, wait! -But it was too late, she had left the toilet really angry.
-What the hell was that Mer?- Amy said
-I'll deal with her later. So?
-Not yet. Not yet.
These few seconds felt like hours, and with Amelia by my side I was even more nervous.
-Ok so I guess I need to book an appointment with OB/GYN. Would you come with me? I wanna make sure fetus is ok before telling Owen. He would be devastated if something was wrong.
-Sure, are you telling Maggie or not just yet?
-I mean I have to, but I kinda don't want to, she's always so full of rainbow and unicorn vomit, I need more of like a dark and twisty person by my side.
-I can be your dark and twisty, but that doesn't mean the world is dark Amelia, do you understand that?
-Yes, don't worry. We'll figure out a way to tell Owen.

In the lobby...
I came off the elevator to go home, and Amelia was with me. There he was: his perfect smile that made me think, even for one second, that the world wasn't falling apart. He was about to leave when I stopped him. I told Amy to meet me in the parking lot.
-Hey hey! Are you waiting for someone?
-Uhh you caught me- Nathan said
-What did you do now, Nathan Riggs?
-I was waiting for you, and since you weren't anywhere near I figured you'd already left.
-No, we were with Amelia, you know, talking.
-Talking?
-Talking!
-About what?
-Listen, she's pregnant, but don't tell Owen, she wants to be the one that does it. Anyway, I fought with Maggie because of something I said that came out wrong, then she left and now she doesn't even wanna see me. And I missed you a lot, but that isn't what I wanted to say. Now I don't even know why I'm talking to you but I really felt the need to tell all this hell of a day to somebody.
-Maybe because you trust me?
- Maybe, yeah. Forget about it, I'm going home.  Tomorrow night we could go out. So, Joe's bar at 8 pm suits you?
-Bossy Dr. Grey, I like it.
-Shut up- I said grinning. He always made me smile. Would I be too toxic, dark or twisty for him? I don't wanna hurt him. I should probably think about it on my way home. Or maybe... crap. I fell asleep in the car.
