Amelia was waiting in the lobby for Owen. A rush of excitement ran through her. She knew they still had problems to sort out and talk about but right now. She just needed him. All of him. Moments later he started to approach her. As he got closer he came to a halt, taking in Amelia stood there glancing in his direction. She smiled at him softly.
"So, it's later now." She said tenderly, her eyes lighting up as Owen met her gaze. "Yeah..." His voice trailed off as Amelia broke the distance between them with two short strides and captured his lips against hers. He wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened the kiss. They both broke apart for air, and Owen spoke again. "Let's go home."
The car journey back seemed longer than usual. Amelia could feel herself getting more and more impatient, she glanced across at Owen who was completely focused on the road ahead. But he could feel her staring gaze, he could sense how much she wanted him in that moment.
As they pulled into the drive Amelia was already unbuckling her seatbelt. He had barely bought the car to a stop before her lips were on his. Her breaths were short and he placed his hands on her cheeks, kissing her back passionately. She swiftly moved herself over so she was sat on top of him. Owen pulled his lips away from hers, looking up at her. "Amelia..." He said, she cut him off by pressing their lips together again. He managed to break away again and their eyes met, Amelia looked frustrated. "Please." She whimpered. Owen gave her a look, "Here?" He asked, clearly shocked at her request. Amelia nodded viciously and a smirk appeared in the corner of her mouth.
"Okay," Owen said finally, before Amelia changed her mind he pulled her into the back of the car and started to plant passionate kisses on her lips and then her neck. She moaned slightly as his hands started to undo the buttons on her shirt. Her hands slipped up his back as she pulled his body closer to hers. The pair struggled to get their clothes off quickly but they were soon both completely bare skin eventually.
Amelia smiled into the crook of his neck where her lips were now nibbling away at his skin. His small breaths bought out goosebumps on her skin.
Without warning Owen bought his lips to her and pushed himself inside of her. A gasp escaped from Amelia's lips as her fingers trailed down his back, leaving faint nail marks from the scratches she had given him. This made Owen go deeper still causing Amelia to scream with delight. His hips started to move simultaneously with Amelia's. Their lips met again and Amelia wrapped her arms around his neck and breathed heavily into the kiss. She didn't ever want to be apart from him again. She didn't want this feeling to ever go away, it was far too comforting and gave her great pleasure.
Owen's hands found their way onto Amelia's breasts which he started to caress softly as he continued to push himself deeper and deeper inside the woman he loved. Moans, gasps and screams left the lips of Amelia Shepherd as Owen explored her body and made her feel the things she had been needing to feel for a while.
"Wait." She whispered as he tried to press their lips together again. He was still inside the brunette as she looked deep into his eyes. "We need to talk about, us." His eyes widened. "And you think now is the best time to do that?" His tone had a hint of annoyance in it but it was soon replaced with laughter. "God, Amelia." He shook his head. "You really do know when to pick your timing don't you." She glared at him. He just pulled her lips against and stroked the few hair strands out of her face. "Let's talk." He said at last.
Amelia took a deep breath, she had to say it. She couldn't hide anything from him any longer. "I'm.." Her voice cracked and the tears started to flow. She tried to frantically wipe them away with her hands but it was no use. There was no stopping them.
"Owen." She said, composing herself slightly. Amelia then realised they were still in the car. "Can we go inside. This isn't really a conversation to have naked in your car." Her tone was suddenly serious and Owen knew they really had to talk.
They got their clothes back on quickly and made their way into the house finally. Amelia paused for a second before walking inside. She was home. Finally.
As soon as Owen shut the door the tears started flowing again, Amelia kept her back to Owen as she looked up at the ceiling willing for them to stop running down her now pale face. He grabbed hold of her hand. She jumped at first but then allowed herself to fall into his arms crying. Owen didn't say a word, he just waited. Amelia eventually stopped crying and she drew herself away from him. "I need to tell you something, Owen." She said. Her pupils were widened and her face read a mix of emotions. He nodded slowly, "Go on." Owen urged. The desperation to know what she was going to tell him must have shown because Amelia smiled slightly before returning to her straight facial expression.
"I'm pregnant." She barely whispered the words. But Owen heard her.
"Wow. Well this is good news isn't it?" He asked, trying to hide his excitement. The tears started to gather in her eyes again and she shook her head slightly. Owen's face grew confused. Amelia took a deep breath and went on to say "I had a son." Her breathing became uneven and the tears that filled her eyes caused her to have blurred vision. "I held him for 43 minutes." Her voice broke. "And then he died in my arms." A loud cry escaped from her lips and Owen looked at his wife sadly. He instantly pulled her body closer to his. She crumbled into him. "My baby had no brain Owen, I can't have that happen again. It almost killed me the first time, I had my whole life torn from my arms. If something like that were to happen again... I can't disappoint you like that." Another sob came from the brunette as her voice trailed off.
Owen squeezed her tightly. "Whatever happens, we will get through it. And listen. You could never disappoint me, don't go thinking like that now." He pressed his lips against her head, closing his eyes as he hugged her shaking body tightly. "I won't let anything bad happen to you or our baby."
At those words Amelia pulled away from him, looking directly into his eyes. "Really?" She asked quietly. He smiled weakly at the brunette and nodded before crashing his lips against hers.
