Chapter 2:Doubts And Fears


Elizabeth woke up to the sun shining through her bedroom window. She looked over at Mark sleeping peacefully. She smiled thinking about the wonderful night they had shared last night.

Her smile quickly faded as nausea swept over her. She got out of bed and made her way to the bathroom. She slid done against the cool tiles and got sick several times. She heard a soft voice behind her. "Hey, You okay" She looked up and saw Mark standing there. "Yeah I'm fine its just a little morning sickness" she said with a small smile.

She stood up and walked over to the sink to was her face. "Did I wake you" she asked as she splashed the cool water on her face. "No you didn't wake me honey" he said as he walked over to her wrapping his arms around her waist.


Elizabeth turned so she was facing him. "Mark" she whispered "Are you really happy about the baby" she asked. Mark smiled at her "Of course I am why wouldn't I be" he said softly. Elizabeth sighed softly "Well Ella is only a year old she'll only be 18 months old when this baby is born, it won't be easy " she said softly. He pushed a loose curl out of her face. "Elizabeth no one ever said that having kids would be easy" "It wasn't easy when Rachel was born, it wasn't easy when Ella was born and it won't be easy when this baby is born" he whispered as he set his hand on Elizabeth's stomach. "But, we'll get through it together"


He smiled at her. "I love you Elizabeth" he said softly. Elizabeth began to cry softly. Mark reached out and gently brushed away her tears. "What's wrong honey" he asked She looked at him "I love you Mark, I love you so much and I know that if someone told me a year ago I'd be here right now with you married for a year with another baby on the way I don't know if I would have believed them" She sighed softly " That was a terrible year Mark, I was being sued for malpractice and you were diagnosed with a" her voice trailed off.


Mark looked at her "brain tumor" he finished for her. More tears filled her eyes "I was so scared Mark , I thought I was going to lose you, sometimes I'm scared that I could still loose you" she whispered. "Then what would I do I'd be alone with 3 kids" she added as he wiped away a few of her fallen tears. Mark pulled her into his embrace "I know Elizabeth it scares me too every time I get a headache or mispronounce a word" He pulled away enough to look at her "but I'm okay the doctor gave me a clean bill of health he said there is no signs of a reoccurrence." He smiled "So it looks like you're stuck with me"


Elizabeth smiled "Good because I'm never letting you go, you're mine forever Mark Greene" she said as she kissed him softly. He smiled "I love you Elizabeth Corday-Greene and I'm happy to be yours forever" he whispered as he kissed her. He took her hand in his "Lets go get dressed "I'm taking my three favorite girls out to breakfast this morning" he said happily as he walked toward their bedroom.

Elizabeth smiled as she placed her hand on her stomach and watched Mark walk toward the bedroom. She felt like the luckiest woman alive. She had Mark , she had Ella and Rachel and soon she'd have a new baby. She sighed happily as she too made her way to their bedroom.
