Are You Moving On

A/N: Go to Katelyn tarver's m/s right now and listen to chasing echoes right now while you read! I promise, it makes all the difference when you're reading! I'm listening to it right now!

Okay, so we're picking up a 6 weeks later.

"Ahh! Ahh!" Jason screamed and cried as Jude bounced lightly, attempting to calm him. Tommy walked in and over to her, taking his son.

"How long has he been like this?" Jude stepped back as tears streamed down her face. Tommy looked at her, and immeadietely set Jason down. "Hey, hey...it's okay now...Okay?" He wiped her tears and she nodded.

"He's been crying for like...2 hours...I don't know what to do!" She broke down crying. He hugged her, rubbing her back as her tears soaked through his shirt. Jason cooed, before turning his head and falling asleep. She sighed and pulled away. Tommy removed his jacket and followed her out to the kitchen.

"I haven't even had time to make dinner..." Tommy nodded.

"Just sit down and I'll get something together." She sat down across from him as he began to pull things out of the cupboards.

"Have you checked him for a tempurature?" She looked up at him.

"Not in a while..." She stood and walked down the hall. "TOMMY!" He dropped the plate in his hand and let is shatter, not caring. She met him in the hall, tears streaming down her cheeks again.

"What's wrong?"

"We have to go to the hospital..."

"Okay..." He pulled on his jacket and then grabbed a blanket and wrapped Jason in it, taking him from her as she put on her shoes and pulled on her jacket.

"Let's go."

Jude and Tommy stood hugging eachother in NICU as they awaited news on their son. Sadie, Liam, Mason, Patsy, and Jamie also waited for news in the waiting room.

"Jason Quincy?"

"We're his parents..." Jude and Tommy turned to the doctor.

"I'm Addison Montgomery, your son's doctor...It appears that your son has contracted RSV, which stands for respiratory syncytial virus."

"What does it do?"

"It's usually like the common cold, and is usually undermined as a cold. But your son's fever gave it away. What happened, is that his rapid breathing caused him to spike a fever."

"Will he be okay?"

"Yes...Have you noticed that he's been wheezing at all?"

"He was a little while ago, but I gave him a bottle and it went away..."

"Mmhmmm...Wheezing is a common sign of RSV...usually in the more serious cases...But he'll be fine."

"May we see him?"

"Sure..."

They made it back home around midnight and Jude took Jason to their room and laid him in the crib before grabbing the baby monitor and walked back down to the kitchen. Tommy was leaning over the side of the counter with his head down. She walked over and heard him sniffle.

"Hey...he's okay..." He looked at her with tears in his eyes.

"But it could've been so much wor-"

"Don't think about that...he's fine now..." She kissed him softly, and smiled.

"Okay?" He nodded. She looked at the paper bag on the counter. "What's in the bag?"

"Pieces of the plate I dropped when you screamed earlier."

"Oh...sorry..." He waved his hand in dismissal, and then wrapped his arms around her. She slid her arms under his, clinging tightly to him.

"Don't worry abou it...it wasn't the china..."They both chuckled.

"You hungry?"

"No...just tired..." She yawned.

"Okay..." He picked her up bridal-style and carried her to their room. She pulled off her clothes and grabbed one of his shirts, sliding under the covers. A few minutes later, he walked out of the bathroom in boxers and crawled in next to her. She yawned and laid her head on his chest. He played with her hair lightly, and then said something.

"Jude?"

"Hmm..." She looked up at him.

"I don't want to wait any longer to get married..." She pulled herself up closer to his face and rolled onto his chest, staring at him. He wrapped his arms around her.

"Okay...But why?"

"Because...tonight made me realize how precious time with your family is, and I don't wanna lose anymore..."

"Okay...So what are we gonna do?"

"There's a chapel in montreal...they do weddings as early as 24 hours in advance, so we wouldn't have to elope...it could just be us and close friends..."

"But wouldn't it be kind of like it?"

"No, we already planned to have the reception here, my sister-in-law is catering the wedding, and you have your gown, I have my tux...Everyone knows that we don't have a date set, but that it could be sudden..."

"Okay..." She kissed him.

"Okay? You wanna do it?" She nodded. He smiled.

"I'll call the chapel in the morning...So when?"

"3 Days?" He smiled.

"Exactly what I was thinking..."


A/n:Okay, so there you go...I feel that this is a good sized update, so now give me a review and tell me what you think!
