"Happy Halloween!" Izzie shouted gleefully to everyone within shouting distance in the halls of the hospital. She was dressed as a princess. Her hair was done and piled high on top of her head with a shiny tiara placed on top. "What are you supposed to be?" She glared at Karev.
"I'm a doctor." He replied.
"Alex, be nice." Sam slapped him on the back of his head. "It's Halloween, and you're on peds. You could've done it for the kids."
"How about I just save their lives?" He grumbled.
Sam gave him a dirty look. "You're awfully grumpy today. I should be the hormonal one." She added in a whisper to him. "What's going on?"
He pulled her aside. "It's Izzie."
"What about her?"
"I think I like her." Alex couldn't look at Sam as he said this. "She drives me crazy, but I want to kiss her."
"I'm pretty sure you like her." Sam confirmed. "You're mean to her. Like, meaner than you are to everyone else. You need to tell her."
"Ugh, I don't want to deal with the feelings." Alex huffed. "I'm not that guy."
Sam laughed. "Are you saying you will never have a girlfriend? You're never going to get married? Never going to have a family?"
"You're my family; you and our baby." He answered.
Sam couldn't help but smile. "Alex, we will always be family, but what about your love life?"
"I don't know." Alex said, honestly. "I don't know what to do about Izzie."
"Kiss her." Sam suggested. "See what happens after that."
They walked back and joined Izzie, Meredith, Christina and George. George was dressed as Tarzan and Meredith was dressed as Jane. Christina wasn't wearing costume.
"See, Christina isn't dressed up either." Alex gestured to Yang.
"Costumes are for losers." Christina turned to Meredith. "No offense, Mer."
"None taken." Meredith smiled. "I think we're adorable." She planted a kiss on George's cheek. "Aren't we?"
"We're the cutest." George whispered to her.
Derek walked up to Sam. "Are you in the ER tonight?"
"No, I get off at seven tonight." Sam answered. "Why? What's up?"
"I'm having a Halloween party of my house tonight." Derek looked to Alex. "You're invited, too. You all are." He said to the other interns.
"I'll come over later." Sam hugged Derek. "Thanks."
"Did you just hug me?" Derek laughed.
Sam laughed along. "It's the hormones."

Sam and Owen walked into Derek's house. It was loud and people were everywhere; dancing, eating, drinking.
Derek came out of nowhere. "Hi!" He exclaimed. He was very intoxicated. "Can I get you a drink?"
Owen nodded. "I'll take one."
"What about you?" Derek asked Sam.
"I can't drink, remember?" She smiled. "I'm fine, thank you."
Derek started to walk to the kitchen. "Hunt, follow me."
Owen obeyed and went with Derek, leaving Sam standing in the doorway alone. It didn't last long. Alex joined her. "Hey, Sam. Do you want some water?"
"Sure." Sam replied and they made their way to the kitchen. "I didn't expect to see you here."
"I wasn't going to come, but I guess I did." He took another gulp of his drink. "Stevens convinced me."
"Oh, really?" Sam winked at him. "So…?"
"So… nothing." Alex commented. "Nothing happened."
"Yet." Sam put her hand on his shoulder. "Just don't think about all of the relationship stuff. Have fun and if it's meant to happen, it will."
"Shut up." Alex put his hand over her mouth. "I can't talk to you when you're like this."
"Like what?" Sam mumbled from behind his hand.
"All girly." He answered and removed his hand.
"Whatever, Alex. Just do what you did with me. Get drunk and let it go." Sam suggested. "But, don't get her pregnant. I don't think you could handle two kids right now."
"I definitely can't handle two pregnant chicks at the same time." Alex chuckled. "I'm going to walk away now before you try to hold my hand and have a moment or whatever."
"Go find Stevens." Sam called to him as he left the kitchen. Owen walked up to Sam with a beer in one hand and a bottle of water in the other, which he handed to her. "Thanks."
He leaned in and gently pressed his lips against hers. "Have I told you that you looked beautiful tonight?"
"Yes, but I could hear you say that all night." She smiled wide.
"I have a weird question for you." Owen looked around the kitchen, which only the two of them and Derek were occupying. "What are we telling people?"
"What do you mean?" Sam wasn't sure.
"About us?" Owen clarified. "People are going to ask questions."
"If you want to tell people, I'm fine with that. If you don't, I'm fine with that, too." Sam admitted. "I'm leaving it up to you because you're an attending and I'm a resident."
Owen shrugged. "I say we just let people think what they want to think. We will neither confirm nor deny."
"Deal." Sam kissed him again. "How about one more before we go out there."
He grabbed her tight. He wrapped his hand around her body and pulled her in close to him. "I'll make it a good one." He kissed her, their tongues dancing around each other. It felt amazing. She felt happy.

"I'm happy that you're all here." Sam stated to her fellow coworkers. "I have some news that I would like to share before it becomes a big rumor that's going around."
Everyone stared at her; Shepherd, Bailey, Sloan, Torres, Hunt, Dr. Romero and the interns, Stevens, Grey, Yang, O'Malley, and of course Karev.
"I'm pregnant." She blurted. "About three months now, so I'm going to start showing." She peered around at the shocked faces, other than Derek, Bailey, Hunt and Karev. "I don't want to be asked any questions about the father; it's none of your business. That is all."
"I have a question." Izzie slightly raised her hand. "Was this planned?"
Sam shook her head. "No, it was not, but it happened."
Derek laughed quietly. "So, was this like a one night stand?" He asked, knowing the answer.
Sam gave him a dirty look. "Shepherd, I swear I will kill you." She turned to everyone else. "Yes, I had a one night stand. It was great. Now I get a baby, so win-win." She let out a deep breath. "Now, if that's all…" She walked out of the conference room and toward the cafeteria.
Owen followed behind her. "Well, people know now."
"I wanted to tell people before I really started showing." Sam put her hand on her stomach. "And I'm getting there. People are going to start asking you questions about it."
"I'm prepared for that." He chuckled. "You're worth it."
She stopped him and wrapped her arms around his waist. He in turn wrapped his arms around her. "Owen, thank you for everything. This last month has been amazing."
"I agree." He kissed the top of her head. "Let's get back down to the ER." He grabbed her hand and they walked down to the ER.

"We need to talk." Sam sat down on the couch next to Owen at his apartment.
Owen turned to face her. "That's never good."
Sam smiled. "It's not bad, I promise."
"What is it?" Owen asked, curious.
Sam took a deep breath. She was a little nervous to have this conversation with him. "Sex."
"Sex?" He repeated after her, chuckling a little.
"Don't laugh." She said, laughing a little herself. "This is serious."
"Okay, let's talk about sex." Owen held back the rest of his laughter. "What about it?"
"Well, how do you feel about me being pregnant?" She asked seriously.
Owen lifted his hand and caressed her cheek. "I know this isn't the most normal situation, but I have feelings for you. I'm taking it one day at a time, you know? Like, I'm sure you are."
"That's not exactly what I mean." Sam whispered. "I mean, how do you feel about having sex with me… while I'm pregnant?"
Owen burst out with a loud laugh. "Is that something you're worried about?"
Sam was not laughing. "Yes, I am worried."
Owen saw Sam's face and immediately cut the laughter. "I'm sorry." He pulled her over so her head was resting on his chest. "You don't need to be worried about that."
"I don't?"
Owen ran his fingers through her hair. "Of course not. I would love to have sex with you, but if you're not ready for that, that's okay, too."
"Okay, I feel a lot better." Sam sighed in relief.
"So where did we land on the whole sex thing?" Owen pulled his head back so Sam could see the wide smile on his face.
"Calm down, tiger, not tonight." She giggled and laid her head back onto his chest.
