Hi there
What just happened? She wasn't even quite sure, but that sweet taste of Owen's kiss on her lips was still there. OWEN HAD KISSED HER! And she had had the worst game of her life right there. First of all, she had brought him water. With sprinkles, but still. It was lame. Then there was the word-vomit. She had not been able to handle that, not at all, actually. The amount of awkwardness in those one and a half minutes had for sure been the worst she had been in her entire life. She realized that she had behaved exactly like some teenager. Wow.
But Owen had kissed her in spite of that. He had kissed her slowly, tender and sweet.
She was now headed to Meredith and Derek's (well just Meredith's now). The smile had yet to leave her face. Maybe it wouldn't for the next week. She didn't care. As she walked further away from the trailer she still had the feeling that Owen was looking at her, so she tried to walk her sexy walk. She had never really learned it, so she just hoped that Owen was equally as happy as she was. He seemed that way. When he opened the door he had looked surprised, and she wondered if it was a good surprised. But then again he did make it clear that he had nothing against dating coworkers. And things had changed between them since⦠well it had been different for some time now.
As she walked there, she regretted going home. She should have stayed there and shared the bottle with him. She should have ignored the insecurity in her stomach. But she didn't. And she had not been able to, since she became clean, but then again; this was probably the first time she really liked someone. Like really liked. She touched her cheek and it was as if she felt him stroke his thumb over it again. The smile grew even bigger.
She reached the house and Meredith came to say hi to her. "Hey!" she said. "Hey" she greeted back. Meredith had one her Meredith-smiles on her face and she said "where have you been?" in a very interested tone. Amelia tried - she really tried so hard - to not smile too much, and she almost succeeded when she casually said "oh I just went for a little walk". She could tell from Meredith's look of disbelief that she didn't believe for a second that she just went for a little walk. The funny thing was she didn't mind. It was okay for Meredith to know that she was a little happier than normal. After all Meredith (hopefully!) had no clue what was going on. What she didn't know was that Meredith had been on her way to the hospital chapel, when she had seen Owen and Amelia sitting there, Amelia leaning against his shoulder.
Amelia went to bed happy and somehow exited for the next day.
Everything at work was normal. Well almost normal because Maggie had asked her if she had gotten a boyfriend. She assumed that Meredith had told her suspicions to her half-sister, but she told Maggie some excuse about not having time for love in her life.
She had a little hard time focusing. It was an easy day; she didn't have any surgeries but instead a lot of paperwork. Well easy might not be the word, she still had to figure out the hardest tumor of her life. But that was more something she could come and go to when "inspiration" hit.
When she was reading files, her mind would drift off and she would get stuck reading the same line again and again. She decided to take a break and walk a little bit around the halls of the hospital. Not hoping to see anyone in particular, she saw Owen walking alone with some files in his hand. What a coincidence. She decided to discretely follow him into whichever room he was headed for. She saw him disappear into one of the storage rooms for medical supplies. It was the perfect opportunity. She almost burst into the room after Owen but then she saw that he was talking to some other doctor, and thought that it might be better to wait a little bit.
The other doctor went out and she waited a bit before slipping in. Owen was finding something on a shelf and he didn't see that it was her. "Did you forget anything Doctor Olsson?" he asked with his back to Amelia. She tried to make her voice sound very deep and said "nope Doctor Hunt, I got it all". Owen turned around smiling and she was almost sure that his cheeks flushed a bit, too. 'He is so cute' was her only thought. She smiled brightly. "Hi" she said.
She walked to him and slowly leaned in to capture his lips for the second time ever. It was great to be the one initializing the kiss. It was calm and sweet. Actually it was more like many little kisses and she tried to kiss every place of his lips. Owen was still carrying the supplies he had found. She had her arms around his neck and the supplies were like a wall between them. She deepened the kiss a little, her tongue peeking out touching his lower lip. He groaned and let go of the supplies and suddenly his body was flush against hers. One of his arms was on her waist, pulling her body to his, the other one was on her neck, as if he was trying to pull her mouth closer to his. While doing this, he was pushing her to the nearest wall, which he pressed her up against. She moaned a little too loud when his mouth when from her mouth to the side of her neck, but it just felt so great. He was kissing and sucking her pulse point hard yet gentle. Her hands were in his hair (which was surprisingly soft, she thought) and now it was her, who was pulling him closer. His mouth came back to hers and this time the kiss was only hot and wet. Their tongues were playing and she bit his lip.
It was right there Meredith stepped into the room. She had not been able to see them in the little window, because now they had moved to a corner of the room. She had no chance of knowing that someone was in there, but Owen's moan had given them away. They broke apart, breathless, and they just stood there looking at her, a bunch of supplies lying at their feet. Both of them could feel how swollen and red their lips were, and Amelia was almost 100 % sure that there was a hickey on the side of her neck.
Meredith was smirking. In fact, Amelia thought, she had never seen a smile so mischievous on her sister-in-law's face. Neither of them had said anything, and it was Meredith who broke the silence. "Iiiii knew iiiiiit" she almost sang it and went out the door.
Amelia looked up at Owen and saw a look so full of passion that she quickly captured his lips once again, smiling like an idiot afterwards. They stood in each other's arms and then they both started laughing about the entire situation. For a minute there, they forgot that they were actually at work. When they finished laughing, Owen touched a red spot on her neck and said "sorry about that". She didn't care. She just appreciated the fact that her hair was long enough to make her avoid explanations about where she got the hickey and said "It doesn't matter". She gave him one of her most dazzling smiles and had to resist the urge to kiss him again. "We have to get back to work" he said. "But if you want to come by tonight, we could taste some of that water, you know" he said, while holding on to her hips. She put her arms around his neck once again and said "I'd love that". Then, he kissed her once and said "It's a date then" before heading out of the door.
AN: Thank you for reading. I absolutely loooove Amelia and Owen. Love them! I have seen the kiss from 11x12 way too many times, but it is just so sweet.
I know that it might be a little soon for Meredith to know about them..
MN.
