***ENGLISH ISN'T MY LANGUAGE***

Allison My Angel

It was almost the break of dawn. The lonely streets of Seattle were being covered with a super thin layer of rain breeze and Owen Hunt struggled to stay up and awake while looking for his keys to open the door of the apartment after a grueling night in the OR.

Since 8 o'clock at night he had been called for an emergency and until now, almost 9 hours later he was at home ready to sleep next to the warm body of his girlfriend, Teddy Altman.

When he opened the door of his bedroom as in cue, Owen's lips, that until a few seconds ago were a thin line, raised in a broad smile when he saw Teddy sleep peacefully.

It was something hypnotic to see her like that, so peaceful, so quiet, especially after she had been on a rollercoaster of emotions in recent months, but it was all worth it. In 3 months they would have their little girl in their arms.

Their little girl.

While Owen took off his clothes to put on his pajamas he noticed how Teddy's foot and hand were jumping with slight spasms and her breathing in choked whimpers. She was having a nightmare.

Owen went towards her stroking her hair gently and kissing her forehead to make her wake up.

"Teddy, honey, wake up." Owen whispered between kisses. "Honey, wake up."

Teddy's eyes snapped open, letting out a sharp sigh. Her green eyes scanning the room as if trying to recognize the place, then staring at Owen, until gradually her eyes began to fill with tears.

"It was dream, sweetheart, it was just a dream." Owen said as he wrapped her in his arms rocking her as she clung to his torso as if not wanting to let him go.

Owen got between the blankets and again wrapped Teddy in his arms, still affected by her dream she didn't hesitate to lay her head on his chest.

"Go back to sleep. I got you." Owen whispered as he kissed her on the head.

"It was so real, Owen." She whispered.

"Do you wanna talk about it?"

After a few seconds in silence Teddy sighed deeply and cleared her throat. "It was her. I dreamed about her, Allison."

Owen hugged her tighter. He knew what it meant for Teddy to dream about Allison, or even the mere mention of her.

"I dreamed about that day. The day I lost her. We were both in the tower and we were running trying to get out of there... suddenly when we were a couple of meters from the exit she stopped and I stayed there... watching her... waiting for her to move, to keep running, but she didn't. Instead she smiled at me and told me to leave... then she turned around and headed back inside the tower... I ran to reach her again, to take her to the exit, but the more I ran I couldn't reach her... then everything became a white mist and when it was fading all I could see was the debris of the towers... and I couldn't do anything for her".

"Teddy, you know it wasn't your fault, nor Allison's. There was nothing you could've done to save her, you know that, right?"

"I know but..."

Owen slid on the bed, turning to face her. "But nothing, darling. It was the most terrible event, but think that Allison would want to see you happy, not blaming yourself for something that wasn't in your hands".

"And I don't blame myself... but, It's so hard, Owen. Even after all these years I still feel like it was yesterday when I lost her."

"I wish I could tell you that that will go away, but it's not like that. You just learn to live with that."

"I know". She whispered.

"Go back to sleep." Owen said, giving her a kiss on the forehead. She buried her face in his chest inhaling his scent that always helped her sleep more calmly.

"Owen?"

"Tell me, love." Owen answered as Teddy reached out her arm to turn on the bedside lamp.

"I know we haven't officially talked about this but..."

Owen opened his eyes, trying to focus his gaze on the sudden brightness of the room and pay attention to whatever Teddy was about to say.

"I want us to name the baby Allison." Teddy bit her lip nervously, waiting for Owen's reaction. He rubbed his eyes and looked at Teddy with a huge smile.

"Is that what you want?" He asked.

She nodded energetically with a shy smile.

"Then Allison will be." Owen said placing his hand on Teddy's round belly, caressing and kissing her. "Hey there Allison. That will be your name, do you like it?!"

Teddy felt a series of small kicks. "You feel it?!"

Owen smiled broadly. "I'll take that as a sign that she likes her name!"

"Totally!"

Once the kicks stopped they both settled back in bed and in minutes they were fast asleep. This time without nightmares.
