Keep Fighting

"Theo, let's go!" I yelled from outside of the house.

"Come on, baby."

Opening the car door, I held Eliza as she climbed inside and sat in her car seat while I packed in the rest of my bags and Theo's backpack.

"Theo, let's go!" Jackson yelled again.

"I'm coming!"

Buckling her in, Jackson jumped into the driver's seats, turning on the car and plugging the tablets with cartoons when suddenly Theo comes out from behind me.

"Ready."

"Jesus! Get in, we're late." I sighed.

Strapping myself in, I quickly looked over some patient files and folders that Henry had sent in a few days ago regarding the sexual assault allegations with Harper Avery and my father.

"What are you thinking?" He whispered, speeding into the highway.

"How are we gonna do this? With the foundation and my case with Leo...do you think Henry can handle this?"

"Henry's not our foundation lawyer. We hired him because he's good to win your case...and he's a family friend. Don't' worry."

"I'm trying...but Leo's already putting out statements that he's not a 'R-a-p-i-s-t.'" I whispered, trying to stay as quiet as possible.

"What does that mean, Mama?" Theo asked.

"Um, it's latin, Theo."

"Latin, funny?" He chuckled continuing on with his cartoons.

"Really?"

"You explain it to him then?" I hissed, trying to contain my smile from Jackson who couldn't help but chuckled.

"No, thanks."

Taking the exit heading for Theo's school, it didn't take long since the line was already short and school started in a few minutes that we managed to get Theo right on time before the doors closed and he was absent.

"Remind me to never feed him vitamins so late in the day." I sighed.

"Sure will."

Pulling up to hospital parking, I could see from the corner of my eye, a large group of reporters that surrounded the entrance of the hospital.

"Oh, crap." Jackson hissed.

"Where are we gonna go?"

"There's no other entrance except for the emergency."

Turning around several times in the parking lot, Jackson just finally gave in and parked beside Bailey's car.

"So?" He asked.

"Let's go...we can't from them forever."

Stepping out of the car, Jackson and I both quietly gathered our things as well as Eliza who was still asleep, covering her with my lab coat.

"Are you ready?"

"Yeah."

Walking around the car, the reporters immediately recognized the two of us as we headed up the stairs before they bombarded us with their mics and cameras.

"Jackson Avery, Can you respond to this morning's harassment allegations by the radiologist in Phoenix?"

"Dr. Shepherd, what will you do with your awards now that you know the great-grandfather of your children is a sexual predator?"
