Owen wiped his tear stained face and pulled his body away from Teddy's. "Sorry. I don't know what came over me," he apologized. Teddy softly shrugged and stared with Owen face to face.

"It's fine, really," she shrugged, feeling his breath tickle her chin. The former lovers started to lean in and were mere centimeters away from each other when a knock on the door separated them.

"Well, I was gonna ask if you wanted to go get something to eat from the cafeteria, but it looks like you've already gotten some sugar to hold you over," Meredith snarled, leaving out of the room. Owen immediately jumped up from the couch and chased after Meredith. He quickly grabbed her arm and spun her around only to be shoved away.

"Hey! It wasn't like that!" Owen tried. Meredith scoffed and took a step back from him.

"I think one of us has the definitions of both concern and faithful mixed up. And I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's not me," Meredith snarled, walking away from him towards the doctors, nurses, and patients staring at the altercation. Owen turned back to Amelia's room to see Teddy with her hand over her mouth.

"Owen, I'm so sorry," she apologized but to no avail. He shook his head and walked past her towards the back entrance of the hospital to get some air.

Addison strutted down the Helipad towards the exterior elevator where DeLuca stood, keeping the doors open. "Dr. Mongomery, Dr. Grey is waiting for you on L&D," he greeted once she was in the elevator and the doors were shut. He hit six and the two rode together and patiently waited for their floor.

"It's Montgomery-Reilly now, and do you have the chart?" Addison asked as she took off her sunglasses and slipped them into her purse. DeLuca nodded and pulled out his tablet.

"Here you go, everything you'll need," he said, nervously. He had never met the legendary Addison Forbes Mongomery and was a bit awestruck, to say the least, but tried to play it cool. Addison took the tablet and scrolled through Amelia's chart unsatisfied.

"A C-section? Why is the OR prepped for a C-section, too?" Addison asked. "Why is the OR prepped at all? What the hell are they doing?" she whispered. DeLuca looked at her strange but didn't get a chance to say anything since the elevator had stopped and they were getting off.

"Addison," Meredith semi-smiled. "That was quick," she said. "DeLuca, take her stuff to the attendings lounge," Meredith ordered. Addison handed DeLuca her purse and shrugged.

"I jump on a helicopter as soon as you called,"

3:30 PM

Betty walked into the hospital, confused as to why Owen texted her to meet him there instead of at home after school. The teenager walked up to the nurse's station and was quickly redirected to her "mom's" room. She slowly walked through the halls of the oddly live hospital, remembering the first time she and Amelia met. Then she was nervous like no other, her skin was crawling, but she was trying to do the right thing for Leo. Now she's trying to stay strong and no flip out before knowing all the facts. Best case scenario, Amelia had a doctors appointment that ran late. Worst case scenario, Amelia was hanging on within an inch of life after Owen beat her for finding out about the secret baby she was harboring. And while the later was less likely, Betty couldn't shake the fear. As she walked into the room she immediately came face to face with Owen and Leo. "Hey," she said while Owen basically looked right through her.

"Take Leo, I'll be back soon. His snacks and stuff are in the backpack," Owen said, ignoring her greeting and dropping the child into his adoptive daughters' hands and rushing out of the room. Betty scoffed and dropped her backpack on the couch to get a better grip.
