Teddy stepped in the ob lounge to find Carina sitting on the couch holding her head.
"Hey, the mom's okay, I looked at the scans and checked on her myself" she stated. The ob just nodded without even lifting her head. "What's happening? Problems with your firefighter?" she asked, after she had witnessed their reconciliation she thought they were fine.
"Yes actually... you know after all her lovely speech I thought we were done with Jack, well she is pregnant with his baby" Carina mumbled mad.
Teddy looked shocked, however after the initial reaction she burst in to a little smile and giggled, Carina looked at her confused and she explained "I'm getting a little deja vu..."
"What do you mean?" and even more puzzled Carina asked.
"This is another Sofia situation..."
"A what? Sofia who?"
"Callie, Arizona and Mark's kid? Don't you know?"
"Not really, and who's Mark?"
"Hasn't Arizona ever told you about Sofia?"
"I don't know if you remember that our relationship wasn't actually the healthiest... we didn't talk much, could you explain what you mean?"
"Long story short: Callie and Arizona were together, they broke up 'cause Arizona had to go to Africa, while she was there Callie had a fling with Mark, her best friend and... well a nice looking guy. However Arizona came back missing her but Callie was pregnant with Mark's baby. After many discussions they settled on being parents together, then there was the car crash... but everyone was okay and they were a happy family for a while. Until the plane crash happened and Mark died, Arizona lost her leg and other bad stuff. Hooo got dark real fast. Anyway what I wanted to tell was that it might seem harsh and twisty now but it might turn out to be something amazing..."
Carina let go of a smile too "I never knew that's what happened with Sofia... but I still don't know what to do…"
Teddy lifted her eyes "I'm sorry but in my opinion you should take a step back, let her understand what she wants and then it will be your time to decide what to do…"
"I know you are right… but i just don't wanna loose her to this…"
Maya was laying in bed, she had taken what was probably her third day off work ever. Andy was just about to leave when she opened her door.
"My friend you look bad…" she stated.
Maya lifted her head a little and gave a thumb up "I do feel bad"
Andy came closer "Are you contagious? is it something you ate??"
"It must have been." Maya lied.
"Do you need me to stay?"
Maya shook her head and fell on the bed again.
"Call me if you need anything"
Right after her roommate had left, the firefighter -after the third time throwing up that morning- got up and brushed her teeth. She was ready to have some breakfast, when she felt like throwing up again. So she sit on the floor next to the toilet and bursted into tears.
After the reconciliation with Carina she thought that the hookup with Jack had stopped being a problem and then bam, three days earlier she took a pregnancy test and it was positive.
The first -and only- person she told was Carina and she, understandably, took it pretty bad. They didn't fight or anything but she was disappointed, it was like a reminder of what Maya had done.
When Maya finally managed to get up she grabbed her phone and saw a text from Carina 'I don't want to pressure you into anything, you should make up your mind on your own and then I'll decide what will be my role in any situation. Oh and as much as I don't want to, you have to tell Jack. I am always here if you need anything but please give me my space'
Maya knew that Carina was right, she had to make up her mind first and then see what the other two wanted to do. And Carina was also right about Jack, he had to know.
'hey, where are you?' she typed. After a few minutes the phone started ringing.
"Bishop, what up? Andy told me you were sick" Jack asked.
"I have been better… where are you?"
"Driving the aid car back to the station ready to leave my 12-hour shift. Do you need anything?"
She bit her nails "I need you to come here… there's something I have to tell you"
He moaned "I have been up for so long, can't it wait?"
"How long 'till you are here?"
"Fifteen tops"
As she hung off the phone she finally managed to eat something.
Twenty minutes later Jack was there and she had already thrown up the breakfast.
"Okay, what's wrong? I thought you didn't want to see me - like ever again"
She was breathing heavily "I didn't… and I don't. But something happened…" she tried to find the words and as she was basically stalling she realised that Jack was falling asleep in front of her, so she let it all out "I'm pregnant and it's yours"
He was shocked, looked at her up and down and stayed silence for a while.
A few tears dripped out from Maya's eyes as she explained "I don't even know what I want, and I am gonna make up my mind on my own. However I thought it was right for you to know…"
"How long have you known? Who knows? Andy?" he asked confused.
She shook her head "I only told Carina… and I'm afraid I might loose her whatever I do… if I have this baby, you are gonna want to be involved and she might feel left out. While if I decide not to… I have no idea of how she might take it." as she was talking she was straight up sobbing.
Jack got up and put an arm around her "It's gonna be okay. I'll have your back whatever you do, and she loves you so much. it's gonna be okay"
When she had calmed down Jack made sure she had eaten something and he left after falling asleep on the couch twice.
"You sure you don't need me?" he asked while getting ready to leave.
"I might, so I need you to be rested. I'll be fine"
A few hours had passed, Maya realised she had never spent that much time alone at home, or at home at all. Andy had left for an 18 hours shift, so the loneliness was still long.
After a while she started feeling sick again, but not like she usually did in the morning: it was a sharp pain in her lower stomach, in her uterus. She knew something was wrong with the baby.
'Andy can I call?' she typed.
It wasn't long before her friend called her "How are you? Still sick?" she joked.
"Yeah… can you please come? I think I need to go to the hospital"
"What?" Andy asked confused.
"Andy I'm pregnant… 5 weeks, it's Jack's and I'm feeling sick. Can you come and take me to the hospital ?"
"I'll be there in five minutes"
