Darlin' you'll be okay: Izzex

Chapter 3

Izzie's POV:

It's been exactly 3 days since our dinner date thing I don't know what you want to call it. But anyways, Alex and I have been pretty amazing. We're working on a case together at work so we're together a lot more. We're 2 days out from a major doctors appointment where I am having a couple crucial tests done and this week is the week we get to make our appointment for the gender scan which would be in 2 weeks or so from now.

"Alexander Michael Karev, get your ass down here we need to leave for work if we're gonna be there on time from rounds on Peyton." Peyton was the patient Alex and I were working together on.

"Good morning to you too." He said as he walked down the stairs in no rush to leave the house.

"Good morning. I'm sorry i'm stressing about this."

"Why? He'll be fine. He has the best surgeon on his case and then he has you." Alex said jokingly.

"Shut up." I said as I hit him on the arm gently. "You might be the best on PEDS but I think I might eventually beat Shepherd out in neuro. Maybe I already have considering he decided to give me this case when tumor removals are his favorite thing in the world."

"If I had to pick between you or him, i'd pick you not because you're my girlfriend, but because you actually do surgery and not paperwork, and you're not a complete douche."

"Very true. If you're in the mood to keep your job today, we should probably leave for work now."

~~~ about 45 minutes later in Peyton's hospital room. ~~~

Alex's POV:

"Hey Peyton, how ya doin today?" I asked him as I walked into the room.

"Peyton Hart, age 5 admitted 14 days ago with a complaint of headaches. We found a small, a very small tumor in the left frontal lobe and we have been monitoring him every 2 hours since." A resident said.

"I was asking him. How ya feeling?" I asked him again.

"Okay, I guess.." he replied back sleepily.

"Well, Dr. Steven's and I are going to check you out and make sure your in good shape so you can go fight crimes and be the best super hero you can be, sound good?" I said as he shook his head and I looked over to Izzie who was getting a couple things set up.

~~~ during lunch the same day ~~~

Izzie's POV:

I love seeing Alex working with kids, it makes me so happy seeing the way he interacts with them and it's just super cute.

"So his, surgeries going to take at least 10 hours." I said to Alex.

"I know, you ready for this?"

"If you're asking me if I think I can handle it, yes, and if I need Derek, he's gonna sit in the gallery."

"You'll be fine, you're great you won't need him. I have a couple papers to fill out, i'll see you before surgery." Alex said as he stood up and kissed me on top of my head before walking away.

~~~ after surgery in the scrub room ~~~

Izzie's POV:

"I'm glad everything went okay. I was expecting to have at least one problem happen." I said.

"Why?" Alex asked.

"It's my first surgery back here and I don't know I was expecting something to happen since we're prone to accidents happening."

"True. Well you're great and you haven't been back long enough to deserve anything bad to happen in you're life."

"Wow that was deep." I said as I laughed slightly and he smirked.

We eventually left work after checking up on Peyton and talking to his parents. We went home, and fell asleep.
