When Robert pulled into the parking lot of the hospital he saw Mark and Lexie getting out of their car at the same time. He walked over to meet them so they could all walk in together.
"Hey guys" Robert said "how's it going?"
"Its good man" Mark said
"How is April today?" Lexie asked
"She is okay, she had some morning sickness this morning but other than that she seems fine" Robert answered
"That's good, I hope she doesn't get to lonely at home all day alone" Lexie said
As they walked in the doors Lexie went to the locker room all of the residents used and Mark and Robert went there separate ways. All day people were coming up to Robert and asking him about April, apparently news of what had happened had filtered through the hospital. It was nice of everyone to be concerned but it was hard to keep talking about it all day. Just as he was getting ready to go into his last surgery of the day, Lexie walked over to him.
"Hey Robert can ask you something really quickly?" Lexie asked
"Sure thing Lexie" Robert said "what's up?"
"I was wondering if you would mind if I invited April to come with me to Joe's tonight?" Lexie asked "all of the residents are going to get together and hang out"
"I don't know Lexie" Robert said "she's supposed to be resting"
"well she has been home resting all day, besides its not like we are going to do anything strenuous" Lexie said rolling her eyes at him "you both need to do something fun, you can go out with Mark and the other attending"
"I suppose you are right" Robert says, sighing "you can ask her but I'm not sure if she will want to"
"Well….I kind of already asked her and she said yes" Lexie admitted "I'm sorry but she called and was complaining about being bored"
Robert just laughs "I guess I am outnumbered anyway, are you going to pick her up?, we still haven't went out and got her car from the park"
"Yeah I will go get her in about an hour, when I am done here" Lexie says, getting ready to go back to work "thanks Robert"
When Lexie gets off, she goes into the locker room to change for the night, she runs into Meredith, Christina, Jackson, and Alex and they all plan on meeting at Joe's in about a half hour. Lexie calls April and lets her know that she is on her way to pick her up. When Lexie pulls up to the house she see's April come out of the house and rush eagerly to the car.
"Hi Lexie!" April says, while getting into the car "thanks for coming to get me"
"It's no problem" Lexie says "how was your day at home, did you rest all day like you were supposed to?"
"Well….." Aprils says, looking guilty "I mostly rested, but I may have done some laundry but it's not like the doctor said I had to be on full bed rest. Robert just worries too much"
"Yes he does" Lexie says laughing "and it will only get worse as your pregnancy progresses"
"Oh boy" Aprils says, rolling her eyes "I know he means well but he is going to drive me crazy!"
"I know what you mean, I was surprised when he didn't give me more of a hassle about you coming tonight" Lexie says, as they pull into the parking lot of Joe's
"Yeah he called me after you talked to him" April says, as they get out of the car "he said he wanted to be sure I really wanted to go"
As they walk through the door of Joe's, they see Meredith, Christina, Alex, and Jackson waiting for them at a table. When they get to the table everyone congratulates April on the pregnancy, since they all found out after the attack and no one had seen her. The group sat around catching up, they were all so busy with their own families that they hadn't had a chance to hang out lately.
"How is Zola doing Meredith?" Lexie asked "I haven't seen her in so long"
"She is doing really well" Meredith said, smiling "I will have to bring her in to visit everyone soon"
"What about Eric, he must be getting really big by now" April said, looking at Christina
"Yes he is" Christina said "I can't believe he's already 2 years old"
"I still can't believe you two both ended up married and with kids" Alex said, looking at Meredith and Christina "I have to say when I first met you guys I never would have pictured either of you as mothers"
"Hey" Meredith said, smacking Alex on the arm "but I guess you are right, we were pretty dark and twisty back then Christina!"
Just then the door to Joes opened and Robert, Mark, Derek, Owen, Bailey, Callie and Arizona walked in. Before going to their own table; Robert, Mark, Derek and Owen came over to give their wives a kiss. At midnight Lexie looked at her watch and announced that she had to get home to relieve the babysitter so everyone else decided to call it a night. When Robert saw that April was getting ready to leave he decided he would go home to. After saying goodnight to Lexie in the parking lot, Robert and April go into their car and headed home. What no one had noticed was the man who had been watching April since her and Lexie had come into the bar.
