Authors Note: Hey everyone! Ok so I've kind of started this new story I tried to make it a one shot but it's not going to work. So I pretty much got inspired to write this just from watching the promo for Grey's that's coming up. Just my take on what possibly might happen! And I think I might continue it for the season but write before each episode airs and kind of go with what Cristina and Owen are going through on the show but also just my take on what might possibly happen! I hope you all like it please leave reviews!
Cristina and Owen had come home from Zola's birthday party after their big explosion. Silence filled the firehouse; Owen had finally told Cristina what he was feeling. She had to know what was going on with him he, was holding this resentment in and the last straw was Cristina and Teddy stealing a patient and lying to Owen about it. Cristina got her way in their relationship most of the time, she wouldn't even talk to him about keeping the baby. He was mourning the loss of this baby and this huge life that he had planned for them.
They were both completely drained they could barely speak to each other or look at each other. They still did love each other but everything right now seemed to hurt.
"I'm going to bed"
Owen said and he walked off into the bedroom got ready and crawled in. Cristina sat in the living room for a while just wondering to herself where do they go from here. She loved Owen so much but she wasn't sure what was going to happen with them.
A couple hours later an exhausted Cristina crawled into bed next to him, but this time she didn't curl up in his arms like she usually did she was on the far side of the bed with her back to him. The next morning Owen got up early before Cristina got up; he just wanted to get to work.
Cristina woke up and stretched over to him it was natural for her to but he wasn't there. She got up got ready and went to the hospital. She was going to try and focus on working even though Owen had taken her off of Teddy's service she needed a distraction.
Owen was in his office filling out paperwork. He didn't know what to do about his and Cristina's marriage yes he loved her a lot but she needed to give a little and meet him halfway but she never did and until she realized that he couldn't do it anymore. He needed to see her he just needed to tell her he needed a break; he couldn't pretend anymore that everything was ok.
Owen walked down to the pit he didn't know whose service she would be on since he took her off of Teddy's service. He came around the corner looking for her, instead he saw Teddy standing there. She was so mad at Owen after Henry died because he didn't tell her right away. He walked over to her.
"Dr. Altman can I talk to you please?"
"I'm busy"
She immediately dismissed him and started to walk away
"Teddy you are going to have to talk to me eventually, I am your best friend. I didn't do it on purpose Teddy it was a call I had to make as Chief"
Teddy stopped in her tracks
"As Chief? You made me operate for hours! Hours! And you knew all along my husband was dead! You of all people I thought would have been the one to tell me he died!"
"Teddy I….."
"I hate you! I wish you were dead!"
And with that Teddy walked away, Owen stood there he had lost his best friend and things with his wife were crap. He was so overloaded he needed to clear his head and he knew the exact place where he could to that.
Owen started to walk towards the elevator he felt like he was in a panic he needed to get away. As the elevator doors opened he saw her standing there, she looked so sad. Cristina looked up Owen walked onto the elevator. Both of them didn't know what to say.
"Owen…I"
Cristina paused
"How the hell did we get to this point?"
"Cristina I…I can't right now I just can't anymore"
"Anymore?"
"I need a break, we need a break….I'm moving out"
Cristina started to tear up this man who she had been through everything with, who she loved so much; who said he would never leave her was leaving; she never thought she would see the day that Owen would leave. She couldn't let him leave they needed to work it out, it was her time to fight for their marriage and she was going to.
"Owen…no, no you can't we'll work it out. Owen you can't leave me you can't"
She started crying. Owen so badly wanted to turn and around and just scoop her up like he did the very first time he met her but he didn't this time, he couldn't bear it, he loved her so much but he needed to just get away.
He started to tear up a bit
"Cristina we need time apart right now"
The elevator doors opened and Owen walked out. He couldn't believe he just told the love of his life, his soul mate he was moving out he didn't want to but until she started including him and talking to him he couldn't do it. He walked up to the vent, a place that had so many memories for both of them but the vent always cleared his head.
Cristina watched Owen walk away; she got herself together and walked out of the elevator. She was still in shock that Owen was moving out she didn't want him to leave she wanted them to work this out. She knew he was her soul mate and she couldn't breathe without him, she couldn't sleep when he wasn't there. She needed him in her life and she was going to figure out a way to do this.
Cristina went and got the labs she needed and then went back down to trauma where she was working with Kepner since Owen kicked her off cardio.
Owen stood over the vent for a while letting the air clear his head. The vent always helped; he walked back down to trauma, Kepner had paged him for a consult. Cristina was stitching up a patient; she saw Owen with Kepner even just to look at him was heart breaking.
"Kepner get an MRI and a full work up of the patient page me when you're done"
"Ok sir no problem at all"
"Oh and all that valentines crap, take it down now please"
"But sir it's Valentine's Day, I just thought it would be nice to have some decorations around for it"
"Take it down Kepner"
Owen said with a stern tone he didn't want to be reminded of his relationship with freakin hearts all around the hospital
"Ok sir"
Owen went and stood at a desk to fill out some paperwork Cristina was in his line of sight he glimpsed over at her a few times. Cristina finished up her stitches and sent the patient on their way.
All of a sudden they heard something weird; it wasn't an incoming trauma because there were no sirens. They heard screeching tires. Cristina turned around and all of a sudden there was a car, it wasn't stopping it was coming towards the front doors and wasn't stopping; Cristina was right in its path. Owen saw this and panicked Cristina was standing in the path of a car that couldn't stop and she wasn't moving.
"Cristina move!"
She stood still, what the hell was she doing he thought to himself. Cristina froze she knew the car was coming straight for her but she couldn't move, was she giving up? Or was she in shock? Maybe a mix of both but she was completely frozen.
"Cristina!"
Owen tried to snap her out of her frozen state but she still didn't move and the car suddenly crashed through the doors.
Cristina tried to block herself but she was waiting for the impact. She suddenly felt someone grab her. Owen could see the car he watched in shock, he would never let anything happen to her she was the love of his life and he couldn't live without her.
His adrenaline kicked in and Owen ran as fast as he could, he jumped, wrapped himself around her and out of the way of the oncoming car. Everything felt like it was moving in slow motion. Owen tried to brace them for the impact of falling to the ground as best he could. They fell to the floor Cristina hit her head on the ground really hard and was instantly knocked out by the impact. Owen landed beside her he looked over realizing she was unconscious he panicked, he knew she hit her head hard even though he tried to brace her for it.
He crawled over to her.
"Cristina! Wake up! Wake up!"
He yelled
"I need some help over here! Get a gurney!"
All Owen could focus on was Cristina, he knew there were other patients including the one in the car but he couldn't leave her and he wouldn't leave her.
