Valentine's Day

This is a little off season - but why not...

Amelia Sheperd had never bothered about Valentine's Day. For her, Valentine's Day is just another day in the 365 days of the year. Just an ordinary day, in which couples send each other cheesy messages and stupid flowers. Well, that's what she thought anyways. She never celebrated Valentine's, not with her many one night stands, not with James, not even with Ryan.

Valentine's Day this year started off no differently. Amelia was nearing the end of her 18 hour call - she had cleared all the referred neurosurgical cases from the Emergency Unit ( most of them referred to her by Owen) and she had cleared the neurosurgical OT list as well. She was now rewarding herself by sipping a cup of hot coffee at the nurses counter of the Trauma Unit.

She saw a familiar red head approaching her. Owen had referred at least 15 new cases to her for neurosurgical reviews, throughout the entire call, and frankly, she needed a break.

'Owen- I'm not reviewing any more cases- my shift is ending soon. Could you refer the patient to Nelson? He's taking over my call soon.'

' I was actually about to ask you whether you had any Valentine's Day plans'

Owen cut straight to the point.

' I don't celebrate Valentine's Day ever' Amelia answered, pretending to be busy checking something on her tablet. ' I think it's the cheesiest celebration ever. I mean, why celebrate Valentine's when you could celebrate your love for each other every single day?'

Owen couldn't help wondering whether she was talking about them.

' Well, let me change your mind. Would you like to go for dinner and movie with me tonight?'

' What would you do if I refused?' Amelia teased..

' Please...' Owen begged with huge blue eyes which she couldn't resist.

For a microsecond, she had a fleeting image of their future child looking at her with the same eyes.

' Fine ok,' Amelia finally relented, but I feel like staying home tonight, I am too tired. Maybe we could watch a DVD at home instead, and order some pizza delivery.

A couple of hours later, the couple were snuggled up on the living room couch having the entire house to themselves as Maggie was on call, the kids were with Callie and Arizona ( who decided to try and reconcile with each other in conjunction with Valentines) and Meredith had gone take a walk along the jetty and take the ferry boat alone to remember Derek.

The movie ' Fifty Shades of Grey' was playing on the huge flat screen TV. They were half watching the movie and half squeezing each other's hand and stealing glances at each other after each scene.

During a particularly errotic scene, Owen suddenly felt his erection begin to harden. Amelia sensed it too.

' Want to proceed to our bedroom?' Amelia offered, winking knowingly.

Before she knew it- Owen's lips were on hers and his tongue was fighting for dominance over hers. His hands slid down under her loose pyjama shirt and began massaging her breasts.

Amelia, in turn, had one hand scratching Owen's back and another hand grasped on his hard member.

Owen's lips trailed down to the sensitive spot on her neck where he pecked her.

' I love you' he whispered. He could never say that enough.

Before Amelia could answer, the knob of the front door of the house began turning, and the sound of keys trying to turn the knob was heard. The couple immediately released their hold on each other, Owen trying to adjust his shirt, and Amelia her hair, bra and shirt.

' Hey' Meredith stepped in. ' I thought you were out'

' No- I umm...decided to stay in' replied Amelia meekly, further adjusting her hair and shirt. ' Where are the kids?'

' With Callie and Arizona'.

Meredith's attention suddenly turned to Owen who was sitting beside Amelia. His erection was still bulging out from his pants and she raised an eyebrow at that.

' Well, obviously I've interrupted something...so I'm just gonna...go right up to my room. Good night guys, please behave.' Meredith winked as she marched up the stairs.

Amelia heaved a sigh of relief.

As the closing credits filled up the TV screen and the song ' Love Me Like You Do' by Ellie Goulding filled the air, Amelia turned to Owen.

' Did you really meant it when you said 'I love you' just now? She asked, curious.

' Yes, and I would say it again and again until it becomes ingrained into your head' he replied.

' In that case- I love you too' Amelia grinned , revealing her dimple.

He carried her to her bedroom to continue what they had initiated.
