"Alex, say something." She said grabbing his hand. When he didn't, she started to freak. Tears came to her eyes and her hands started to shake. "Alex?"
"You're pregnant?"
She nodded slowly still searching his eyes for some sort of sign. A couple minutes had passed and she had assumed the worse. She stood up.
"Alex, you know what, it's okay. I understand." She started to walk out.
"No, Meredith." He stood up quickly and grabbed her arm. She turned to see him wiping the tears from her eyes. "I'm happy. I'm just… It's a surprise."
"Really?" She said quietly. Instead of answering he pulled her into a kiss.
"I love you, Meredith."
"I love you too, Alex." She smiled at him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She sat down beside him on the bed smiling from ear to ear.
"That was…" She started.
"Amazing." He finished as he tackled her to the bed. Their lips crashed together. She giggled as his lips trailed down her neck and shoulder.
"Okay, down boy." She said.
"One more time," He begged into her shoulder. She giggled.
"Four isn't enough for you?"
"No such thing as enough."
"Come on, we have to talk."
"I don't wanna. I wanna have sex." He whined into her neck causing her to laugh.
"We have to talk." She repeated sternly. He groaned and rolled off of her onto the bed. "Thank you very much."
He used his elbow to prop his head up. "What's up?"
"Should we tell people at work yet?"
"It's up to you."
"I just don't want to be mommy-tracked until I need to be."
"Okay, we'll keep it out of work." He stood up right in front of her. "Sex please."
She laughed as he tackled her to the bed again kissing her neck.

The next day…
He walked in beside her. They were sharing a comfortable silence as they got into the empty elevator.
"I should start taking the stairs." She said out of the blue.
"Why?" He looked over at her.
"Because I'm going to get fat." He let out a chuckle. "You think it's funny that I'm going to get fat and horny but I'll be so fat you won't want to touch me."
"That's not going to happen." He said wrapping his arms around her small body.
"Yes it is." She pouted. He kissed her cheek.
"You're not going to get fat. And I promise you I will have all the sex you want to."
She kissed him lightly. They broke apart as the doors opened at the surgical floor. They walked to the locker room and to their lockers. The door opened and Christina walked in.
"Hey." Meredith said as she walked past.
"Hey." She responded dryly.
"What's wrong, Yang? Long night?" Alex asked as Christina yawned.
"Yeah, not going to tell you." She smirked at him.
"Oh do tell." Meredith said raising an eyebrow.
"Nothing to tell." Christina said shutting her locker.
"Sounds familiar. Last time I said that, I was sleeping with Derek."
"I'm not sleeping with McDreamy."
"Who with?"
"Nobody, just a one-night stand at the bar."
"Never ends well for me." Meredith said walking back to her locker.
"Yeah, remember penis guy." Christina laughed.
"Not to mention my boss. I hope you made sure he wasn't a doctor."
"Do we have to walk down memory lane on one-night stands?" Alex said making a face.
"What jealous, Evil Spawn?" Christina taunted.
"No, I don't get jealous." Alex said glaring at her.
"Whatever." Christina rolled her eyes then turned back to Meredith. While the two bickered, Meredith had run to the trashcan and was effectively emptying the contents of her stomach. Alex rushed over and rubbed her back while holding back her hair.
"You okay?"
She sat down on the floor and wiped her mouth. "Yeah, I'm fine."
"Whoa, Mer what's up with you?" Christina said. Meredith looked around to see who was in the locker room. Nobody since they were early.
"I'm pregnant."
"PREGNANT?"
"Sh… Keep it down. We're keeping it out of the hospital."
"A Mini Evil Spawn or a mini Meredith? That spells trouble."
"Shut up, Yang. Do you want something to drink?" She nodded. "I'll be right back." She nodded as he walked out.
"So he knocked you up? When?"
"I think when we were in Hawaii."
