Meredith And Nathan: fight for your L(ife)ove

There's actually not a third one

Maybe respect, stamina, self determination? I don't know, you name it... there's actually not a third rule, each and every one of us write it. So my third rule isn't your same third rule...
My third rule? No bounds are known...
That flatline noise would have driven her crazy, thank god nobody died today.
-Hey, Meredith-April said.
-Hey, what's up?
-It's Owen. He woke up. He remembers everything
-Ok, let's call Amelia.

-Hey, Amelia. Owen woke up.
-Oh crap. Meredith, I'm not ready for this.
-You are never ready for what's about to come.
-Can you come with me?
-Sure, let's go.

At the ICU
-Owen, I'm so sorry for this. I never meant to do this to you. I'm really really sorry.
-Amelia, why did you do it?
-I had to. You, you were leaving with Leo, and I couldn't lose my child.
-Amelia I'm his father, I would never never hurt him.
-I know! But I panicked, I freaked out. I'm sorry, I hope you can forgive me.
-Look, I will file a request for divorce, but I won't sue you.
-Ok wait, what?
-You should be thankful I'm this kind.
-Excuse me? You should be thankful that instead of slicing your neck with a scalpel I hit your head with a pan.
-Amelia don't get aggressive- I said.
-I'm sorry Owen
-No, no go ahead. I know you aren't sorry. You don't regret saying that.
-Owen, I-
-Leave, please. We can talk later, but now I'm really tired.

-Amelia what the fuck? Why would you say that?
-I'm sorry, I just got out of control.
-It's fine, but you should thank him
-Why?!
-Because he is not starting legal action against you.
-Ok, I will talk with him later. Right now I need to go out for a second
-Do you want me to go with you?
-Nah, I'll be alright. See you later Mer
-Ok, see you!- I shouted as she left

Later in the evening, I found Nathan hiding in a supply closet...
-Heey, what's up?- I said in a curious but lovely tone
-I, I'm sorry. Maybe I shouldn't be here, I should be helping you out, being by your side. And instead I'm hiding in a supply closet, how pathetic.
-Heeey, what is going on honey?
-I'm just, I, I shouldn't be telling this to you. But I was thinking of everything that happened this past month, and about how much I regret divorcing you. I'm sorry, I, I just imagined for a second that things would be different now between us with the issue about Owen if we were still married. I don't wanna push you, but if I were still your husband, you would count on me a little more, and you wouldn't have to cry on your own, you would tell me everything
-But I do tell you everything.
-Mer, I'm not with you at night to hold you, I know you cry at night too, you don't say anything, but you do—at this point his voice cracked a little and small tears started rolling down his cheeks—And I'm really sorry you have to go through that alone. I would love to be with you every second you need me. I feel like a jerk, I should support you.
-Nathan. I am the one who is sorry. It was my decision, and then I regretted it so badly. You have no idea. I questioned myself day and night. But look at us now, we are alright. And about me: yes, I cry alone at night, but it's not your fault, not the end of the world.
-But you aren't my wife anymore. We are just a couple.
-Look who got nostalgic... Nathan, look at me, look at me in the eyes. We have a child together, and that will always keep us together, no matter what. We will always be together, whether we fight, we divorce a thousand times and get back together a thousand and one. You and I, we are unfinished business. We rushed, It's true. But now we are taking good decisions, this was all for the better. To learn from our mistakes.
-I know, but I just wish we hadn't hurt each other so badly before learning the lesson.
-I know, but we are here now. We shouldn't look back in the past, that's our story to tell. But not the one we should focus on building. Ok?
-I love you too much to ever hate you
-I love you too much to hate you too. There are no bounds to our love. Love is limitless if we choose not to see the bounds. We pushed them a couple of times, but it was because we love each other, ok? Everything will be more than fine. Got it?
-If you need me, you call me. You cry, you call, is that clear?
-Yes captain-I said smiling.
