AN: Sorry guys for not uploading last week it has been a busy week and weekend! So here you go!

Chapter 3 Grandparents in town

Today was the day Matt and Kathrin were moving to New York. The moving truck was coming on Friday and would arrive at their new house in Brooklyn on Saturday and I was very excited they were coming. It meant that Liam could build a good relationship with his grandparents and I had some more hands to help me! We talked about it over the phone and they were happy to watch Liam some nights so I could enjoy myself in the city and if I needed to do home work they could watch him as well. Don't get me wrong I was doing quit well without the help managing to stay on track at school I had a good system in place but it was very tiring and I didn't have much time for myself.

I had asked my mom she could come the week before so I could help Matt and Kathrin this weekend. And she agreed to come a week earlier and I told her to grab some baby food from the cabinets in her kitchen before they were out of date! She also remembered to bring me some surgical tapes so that is how I spent my free Friday night while Liam was asleep in his room. I sat on the couch with a carton of Ben and Jerry ice cream and watched my mother's old surgical tapes. I know it is very sad that a 19 year old is spending her Friday nights like that but hey it was my life and I loved it.

It had been a rough week tough. Liam was not feeling that well on Monday I took him to day care anyway but I was called away during my second lecture of the day that he had vomited and had a fever because of that I missed classes on Tuesday and Wednesday because I was taking care of my sick son who was not having it at all. All he wanted was to sleep in my arms and as soon as I put him down in his crib he would wake up and scream. Izzie was a big help and came over after class so I could copy all her notes! Liam was feeling better on Thursday not quit himself yet but no fever and no vomiting so I took him to day care. And dragged myself to NYU I was sure that whatever Liam had was now in my body. And boy I can understand why he was crying. Good thing for me was I only had one lecture. Izzie looked at me and she said don't come near me you look horrible. Well I feel horrible I replied I think I have the same bug Liam had over the last 2 days. So I went home after class without picking up Liam at day care and went to bed after setting an alarm to pick him up on time! I woke up a little better from my nap and hoped that Liam would be tired from a full day at day care and would fall asleep right after dinner. And I was right because after feeding him his last bottle I saw his eyes fall shut, as he was finishing. I was feeling better on Friday so I was hopeful that I could help Matt and Kathrin on Saturday.

After our weekend morning routine I practically skipped to the subway I was sure everybody was looking at me but I didn't care. I stopped at my favourite coffee shop on the way to the subway and ordered my vanilla latte with extra sugar and I grabbed a muffin. I called Izzie and asked her if she wanted to have a study day at my place tomorrow I needed to help her with her biology anyway I called George as well to see if he wanted to come. Than the train came to my stop and got of the subway. Walking around the neighbourhood it look like all the houses where very expensive and I felt a little out of place pushing Liam around in his stroller. When I came to the building I rang the doorbell and I was greeted by Matts voice he was telling me I needed to come to the highest level. I get into the elevator and push the right button. When I get out of the elevator. Kathrin is standing in the doorway with a big smile on her face. "I am so happy you are here to help us move in". She says while giving me a hug. She waves at Liam and he is smiling back at her. As I walk into the apartment I can the amazing view trough the windows I can see all over Manhattan. I dream about having a home like this one-day.

Matt gives me a quick tour. The last room he shows me is a little bit smaller than all the other rooms. As a look at the door I see Liam's name spelled out on it. He is going to have his own little room. We were thinking of painting in blue but we wanted your opinion first to see if you think it is a good idea. Matt said. I just looked and smiled at him it was an amazing idea. So I wouldn't have to drag all his stuff around! I looked in the hallway and saw a crib, changing table and a high chair. I couldn't ask the question but Kathrin saw it in my eyes. Yes this was his she said. Finn had wanted to move it to New York with us when we left for college but after the accident I didn't want to be reminded of it and when it was time to get the baby room ready I just bought everything new. But now it was here anyway and Liam was going to use it. After the tour we sit down for lunch and afterwards Matt is starting to paint in Liam's room while I help Kathrin unpack boxes in the kitchen and the living room. Liam is laying on his playmatt playing but I can see he is getting tired and it is not long before I can hear his little snores and place him in his stroller.

While unpacking we have some chitter chatter about a lot of stuff. I always had a good connection with Kathrin and she was like a second mom to me. I remembered the time Finn and I had our first fight it was about something stupid. It was so stupid I don't even remember what we fought about. But what I did remember is that is showed up at his house crying knowing the Finn was not home and Kathrin comforted me like I was here own daughter. She knew that my mother was a workaholic and that I was in the care of nanny's till my mother decided that I was old enough to fend for myself. What she didn't know was my wild party life before I met her son and I wasn't planning on telling her anytime soon. From the time I became Finn's girlfriend I sat at their diner table at least twice a week. And if we didn't want to get disturbed we went to my house when I would know my mom was in surgery and wasn't coming home anytime soon!

Matt came out off Liam's room as the first layer of paint needed to dry. And we all needed a break. We sat at the table and we discussed the time they would spend with Liam. I didn't want to disturb his little routine that much and I wanted a stable one. I turns out the Kathrin has one day trough the week of on Tuesday while Matt works full time. And she would love to take care of Liam for the day. I figured I could cut back one day of day care. It would safe me some money. I would drop him before class start and pick him up right after his dinner. So I could do his evening routine. This will give me some time to focus on my study and then every other week they would watch him on Saturday overnight. So I could do something fun! And I would pick him up around 12 on Sunday. This was all going to start in 2 next weeks. Just to give them time to get settled in. I looked around the room and told them I would bring over some of Liam's toys but Kathrin said don't bother we will go to toy are us when he wakes up and get him some new ones.

It looks like it is Liam's birthday when we are going trough toys are us I push Liam in his stroller and Kathrin is pushing the shopping card. She is going a little overboard but I also know she had missed her grandson and wanted to spoil him, I think back to the toys I have at home. And I think there is twice the amount of toys in the card then I have in my living room and we were not even half way done. I was starting to feel a little bit embarrassed that Kathrin was buying all the toys. Liam was very happy with the little toys at home he had. But Kathrin wouldn't budge and wanted the big expensive toys for him because he deserved the best.

After toys are us Kathrin drags me to the bookstore ordering me to get the books Liam likes to read. They don't have Liam's particular one but I grab some books with animals just for babies but than my eyes fall on Peter Rabbit. I used to love the book when I was younger. I always asked the nanny to read it before bedtime. Maybe I can start reading it to Liam before he goes to bed. As I give the other books to Kathrin I hold on to Peter Rabbit.

Matt laughs when we return to the apartment and jokes that Kathrin had bought the whole toys are us. Well she almost did I replied sarcastic. After putting the toys away I walk over to Liam's room the second layer of paint is on and the crib and changing table are on its place. I place some stuffed animals in his crib and put his new books on the changing table.

Matt asks me to stay for dinner as it was getting late but I didn't have any food for Liam so I decide to go back home. After whipping up a quick diner I put on the television and I have some cuddle time with Liam before he is starting to doze off. There wasn't anything really interesting on television. And it wasn't long that my mind had wondered of to the day I moved to New York.

It was the Monday after Finn's funeral and I was standing in my bedroom looking at the empty room. Over the weekend I had to pack up all my stuff in boxes. It had taking me ages just because of the fact the every time I found something that reminded me of Finn I would start to cry all over again. I was a mess I hope I could get myself together before classes started but for now I was still a basket case. It felt wired standing in this empty room where I had stayed since I was five after we moved from Seattle. I was going to start all over again in New York. I was looking forward to it finally away from my mother and living on my own. On the other hand I was scared to death because I knew it was not going to be easy with a baby on the way. We where supposed to do it together but now I was all alone!

I smiled at the memories of Finn and me lying on the bed and just talking. Or the one time we played a board game and I was kicking his ass over and over again. He didn't handle it very well and the board game ended up on the floor while he was giving me the tickle dead. I kicked and screamed but he wouldn't stop till I begged him for mercy!

As I carry the last box to the car I look back at the house that I called home. My mom had taken the day of to drive me to New York it kind of surprised me. I suspected that I had to hire a moving truck and drive myself to New York but she insisted to help me. When we arrived in New York and carried all the boxes inside. My new furniture that I had ordered online was delivered. And after asking the delivery man nicely to bring it up to my floor my mom helped me to put everything together. Well she tried to help. It was very funny to see that the famous Ellis Grey world-renowned surgeon couldn't put a simple bed together. And afterwards she had left me alone to unpack the boxes and went back to Boston because she had an early surgery the next morning.

I unpacked the box with the photos of Finn and placed them on the little side table in the corner so he was sort of with me. Putting my hand over my belly whispering that everything was going to be all right to my baby.

Don't worry Derek will make an appearance soon! Just hang in there ;)
