A/N: I know, another filler/transition chapter, and it's really short. But this is all I had time to write last night after I posted chapter 20, and I'm going to breakfast in 10 minutes and then have class in an hour. So, I should be back from class around 4:30 (Chicago time), I'm eating dinner briefly, and then I plan on writing from 5:15 up until Grey's airs. So that being said, this will have to hold you over until 5:30 or so tonight, and then I'll post what I have as I have it. I actually don't think this entire fic will be done by tonight, but you never know. All the Addison/pregnancy related stuff will be, though, because I want to see how close I am to what they actually do.
Okay, so now that the author's note is just about as long as the update itself, here you go:
"Hey you," Addison said as she walked in the recovery room. "How are you feeling?"
"Ugh. I'm so tired," Holly said, still very groggy from the anesthesia.
"Well, that's to be expected," she said as she leaned over the railing on the bed. "Callie said the surgery went well, and that you should be able to get out of here later today."
"Awesome."
Addison stayed in the recovery room with her niece until Holly was fully alert. "How are you doing?" Callie asked when she came into the post-op room.
"I'm okay. Addison said that everything went well, so I guess that's all I can ask for at this point. Thank you for everything, Callie."
"You are so welcome, just get better soon! I'll get the results to you as soon as I know. I need you to come back in two weeks to get your cast and stitches removed, and here is a prescription for Codeine. Now, is there anything else you need from me?"
"Umm…no, I don't think so."
"Okay, well if you have any questions you know where to find me. You are free to go, but you'll have to stop down in physical therapy to get some crutches before you leave—you really need to stay off that leg for two full weeks."
"Okay, will do."
"Alright, see you in a few weeks." Callie left the room and Addison helped Holly into a wheelchair so they could go down and get her crutches.
"Thank you so much Addison, for getting me the appointment, for being here, for letting me stay with you…for everything."
"Don't mention it. Ready?"
"You bet."
