Chapter 12: Unexpected Visit

They were both very excited about the house, this was going to be their fresh start, a new chapter of their lives. They had made their bid for the house and now they had to wait for the result. They were happy, after a long time they were together and happy.

They were going to work, discussing their schedule for the day when they were both paged.

"Ah, Russell is paging me. He did mention something about some case, the other day. He wants me to meet him in the conference room in 20 minutes". Cristina said out loud as she checked her pager.

"Must be some case, because he had paged me as well. I guess we will be spending some time together at work as well".

"Great, you know I really enjoying working with you. I can see you in action, all focused and sexy", she leaned forward to kiss him.

They went hand and hand to the conference room, as soon as they entered the conference room, Cristina froze in her tracks, and forgot to breathe as her body started to shake "Oh god, no", she said under her breathe but Owen heard her and suddenly noticed Cristina's shaking hand, he tightened his grip on her hand to let her know that he is here with her, for her. He didn't know what caused her to act this way, he looked into her eyes and saw tears forming in them, which she was trying her best to fight from falling, he got really worried.

"Dr. Hunt, Dr. Yang I am glad you are here", Russell addressed them, being unaware of their situation. "I wanted to discuss a case with you. But first of all I would like you to meet someone. Dr. Hunt meet Dr. Preston Burke. Dr. Burke this is Dr. Hunt, the head of Trauma and also the Chief of Surgery and this is Dr. Yang our very talented cardio fellow. She would be assisting you in the surgery hopefully". Russell introduced everyone to everyone without realizing the tension in the room.

The instant Owen realized, who he was facing, his jaw tightened, his free hand formed into a fist and other gripped Cristina's hand even more tightly. He had always hated that man, for hurting Cristina, and right now he was using all his self control to stop himself; from taking a swing at him.

Burke didn't miss the change in Owen's body language after their little introduction, he didn't bother extending his hand for the shake because he could tell that he was not going to get any shake. He also noted how Cristina was holding on to Owen, and how he was standing protectively with her, by her side. After an awkward silence, Cristina excused herself and ran outside, Burke wanted to go after her but after getting an extremely deadly glare from Owen he changed his mind. It was not his place after all.

Owen also excused himself and went after Cristina. He found her sitting in the stair case, she was still trying to hold her tears back. When she saw Owen coming towards her wiped her face clean, she didn't wanted him to see her cry because of an ex. As Owen came closer, he didn't say anything, just extended his hand towards her. She took his hand and stood up to follow him, she knew exactly where they were going.

Cristina stood on vent, her hands in her pockets and she let her hair loose. Owen just stood there, watching her, trying to calm herself. After a couple of minutes, she turned towards Owen, grabbed his arm and brought him closer to her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and she rested her head on his chest. They just there, unmoving for several minutes, till Owen felt his shirt getting wet and realized that Cristina was crying. He hated to see her cry, but he knew that right now, she needed to get it out of her system. He held her closer to him, and placed soft kisses on her head.

"I never wanted to see him again in my life. I hate him Owen. I hate him. I can't stand him. I don't want him here. Please Owen, I don't want him around me, around us. Please Owen, make him go away", she was sobbing uncontrollably. His heart ached to see her in this state.

"Ssshhh, it's ok. It's ok baby. I am here for you. I will take care of you, of everything. You don't have to worry. Everything is going to be ok", he tried to calm, he lightly cradled in his arms.

Eventually Cristina stopped crying, but she didn't let him and neither did he wanted to let her go, so they stayed just like that, holding on to each other. After some time, Cristina lifted her to look at Owen and kissed him passionately.

"You are the best thing that could have happened to me, Owen Hunt"

"You are a pure blessing for me Cristina Yang. I am the luckiest man to have you in my life, my arms. And I love you, very much"

"I love you too, with all my heart", she smiled at him and he kissed her eagerly.

As we all know that Burke would be showing up, so I thought about writing him as well, although I really can't stand him. No offense.
