Notes: I don't really know where this is going, but I do know that I wanted some Crowen fluff with baby Leo. I just can't help it… watching season 16 and seeing Owen and Teddy together, I can't help but think it should be Cristina instead. This probably won't have many chapters, and you guys can comment your ideas as well, that'll be highly appreciated.
Summary: Follow Crowen story after Owen shows up on Cristina's doorstep in Zurich, with baby Leo on toe.
Disclaimer: Grey's not mine, if it was Crowen would be endgame!
Chapter 1 – I Want You Back
Oh baby, give me one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
Cristina heard the doorbell. Witch was massively strange, since Shane had her keys, so did Meredith, although Cristina doubted her person would show up at her condo without a warning. The doormen, Arthur, haven't called as well, so it had to be somebody she knew, right?
Anyway, she got off the couch, where she'd been doing online charts and went answering the door.
"Coming!" she said as she twisted the key and opened it.
The Asian froze on the spot. Before her were Owen and a baby, at the age of one, or even less.
"Owen…" she was perplexed "and, this is?" she looked at the baby.
Owen adjusted the baby in his arms and the kid squalled. "This is Leo!" he smiled at her.
Cristina faced him with her best WTF expression and saw that, besides the baby bag, he also had a big suitcase.
"Are you inviting us in?"
She got out of her trance and took his luggage in, as he entered her apartment, with a baby boy.
He took her home in. it was a beautiful condo with windows circulating all of it, serving as walls. He could see Zurich's landscape and the sun that was setting outside. It was a breathtaking view.
"Nice flat" he voiced his thoughts.
"Thanks…" the woman dried her suddenly sweaty hands on her jeans covered tights. "Owen, I love you being here, but what the hell, it's been five years and suddenly you show up with a kid?" there, the elephant was out of the box.
He turned to face her, patting the baby's back.
"I missed you."
She couldn't believe him. She couldn't believe this was happening.
She was stunned, seeing him after all this time. Of course, she still loved him senseless, she had left him so that he could conquer all he dreamed of. A family, with a wife and a baby. Apparently, he did. Or so the baby part of it.
"Owen…" she initiated but he cut her off.
"Listen Cristina, I tried. I tried so hard being happy without you." He locked eyes with her. brown and blue pouring at each other. "I married Amelia, and we divorced because I compared her to you all the time, in the little things, and no one's like you Cristina… I-" he breathed in deeper. "I still love you, I love you like you never left, I love you like our wedding day, and I love you so much I just couldn't not chase after you, even after all this time, and ask you, beg you, to try again."
She was speechless.
"I'm sorry for barging in your life this way." He apologized still standing in front of her in the middle of the living room.
"How old is he?" she pointed to Leo with her chin.
He smiled at her and to the baby. "Leo will be a year in three weeks."
"And Amelia's okay with you taking him across the world? This is kidnapping, you know that, right?" she imagined he was her kid. Meredith had said they got married couple years ago, so Cristina connected the dots.
"He's- he's not Amelia's"
Her puzzled face made him elaborate.
"He's adopted. I adopted him six months ago. His mother had some drug problems and I fostered him for a while, and after she overdosed, I adopted him."
Cristina faced the floor before lock eyes with him again. She was sorry for Leo, he was so little and already had been through so much. He was a lucky kid for having Owen as a father. He was great with him, she could see it with less than 20 minutes together.
"I see…" she went to the sofa and cleaned the amount of sheets and her ipad, so they could sit comfortably. "Owen, I want you to know that I love you too much." She started as he sat, baby Leo crawling his chest. Cristina could not be the biggest fan of babies, but she had to admit this one was cute, and being in Owen's lap just made him cutter. Not that she would say it out loud.
"And although I wasn't expecting you at all, ever, I'm really glad you're here. I'm still single, even after five years, and my work fulfills my life and that's enough for me. Knowing you're happy is enough for me."
"But I'm not." He started. "When Leo came, I felt like it, Cristina I swear I did, I love him like my own and I wish it was enough forever, but every night, after the baby routine, I think of you." He smirked at her, and took her hand in his, the other securing Leo's back.
"I think of you lying in bed with me. I think of you waking up with me, and I had to come here, I had to try."
She nodded.
"I had to try and get you back, because I would hate myself for not doing it."
"I have a very demanding job Owen, and I can't, nor want to take care of a one year older. That hasn't changed"
He sighed. "I know, and I'm willing to move here, for you. I'm willing to- to stop working or something.."
She had a board smile now. She was already thinking that that topic would be next in disagreeing.
"I'm not asking for you to be his mom, I would never ask that of you, I know better." He pointed. "But, I wanna have it all, and I can only have that here, with you."
She took his face in her hands.
"I missed you too." She admitted with a little smile, the one she always had for him.
Owen displayed a big smile as she got closer, and they'd have kissed, wasn't for Leo choosing that very moment to fart on his dad.
"OMG!" Yang exclaimed closing her nostrils with her fingers.
Owen laughed soundly.
"How come someone so little can stink like that?" she wanted to know.
"It must be the travel." He put out, getting up and taking Leo's bag, that was on the floor. "seems like this guy needs a change."
"And new organs, maybe! Oh My God! You're like dead inside mate?" she asked looking at the baby, that was facing her with his fist inside his little mouth.
Owen chuckled and adjusted the baby on his hip. "Where can I change him?"
She walked to the guest room and signalized for him to follow her.
Cristina couldn't believe she was doing it. She could not believe they were doing it. Again. Plus, a one-year old baby, nonetheless.
She so needed tequila and Meredith right now.
