"A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten and the future worth living for."
Author's POV
Owen slowly stirred awake in the middle of the night hearing weird noises coming from the bathroom.
"Hmm Mia, what's that?" Owen said whispering, when he didn't got a reply he rubbed his eyes and slowly sat himself up on the bed, the moonlight shined trough the curtains, he looked to his left seeing his wife not there.
"Mia!?" Owen said louder this time.
"Bathroom!" Amelia screamed back, Owen heard the weird noise again, he finally got the pieces together, he stood up and walked to the bathroom that was linked to their bathroom and saw Amelia kneeling by the toilet, vomiting.
"Oh baby," Owen walked behind her and softly held her loose hair back with his right hand, rubbing her back with his left hand, suiting her.
"It's okay, let it go, i'm here." When Amelia felt like she was done she let herself fall back into Owen's chest.
"We are not having sex anymore." Amelia said, Owen heard a soft giggle in her voice which made Owen snicker.
"I thought you wanted a whole soccer team?" Owen's arms wrapped his arms around her petite body, holding her on his lap.
"Hmm.. well... then we just need to take a break for a couple of years, we can handle that right?" Amelia looked up to meet his eyes.
"Years? Are you crazy, i can't handle that, i can't even handle 2 days." Amelia giggled and went to peck his lips but Owen turned his face sideways.
Amelia has a questioned look on her face.
"You smell like vomit, baby," Amelia whined and tried again, but failed again.
"Owennnn.. give me a kiss."
Owen chuckled and kissed her left cheek.
"Not there!" Amelia whined again.
Owen turned Amelia so she was sitting sideways on his lap, he bended down so he could kiss her belly softly.
"Hmm he or she thanks you, but you missed a spot." Amelia said pointing to her lips, puckering it for him.
"Brush your teeth first, Mia, then you will get as many kisses as you want." Owen smiled and looked at her, then looked at her stomach.
"You too." And with that he kissed her stomach again, making Amelia giggle.
"Mmm.. help me stand up, i need to brush my teeth." Owen stood up and held out his hands for Amelia, she grabbed his hands and stood up, sneaking a little peck on his lips, giggling after she finally succeeded.
"Miaaaa." Owen looked at her, she used her pleading look becaushe she knew he couldn't resit that. And she was right, Owen just couldn't get mad at her, she had a special glow on her skin, which made her even more perfect.
"Sneaky Mia," Owen winked and made his way back to their bed, once his body met the matress, he felt rush of tiredness coming over him, he was about to fall into a deep sleep when suddenly Amelia layed down next to him, he felt her lips on his, he smiled into the kiss when he tasted mint against her lips, she pulled away after a couple of seconds.
"I thought; why not help you getting rid of the vomit taste." Amelia giggled and made Owen smile, she kissed him one more time before cuddling up to Owen, her back was against his bare chest, he puts his head in the crook of her neck ans wrapped his arms around her waist meeting her hands on her stomach, he interlaced their fingers, they both smiled and fell into a deep sleep after a couple of seconds.
Amelia slowly stirred awake, trough her half open eyes she could see the bright sun shining into their bedroom, Amelia slowly sat up and looked to her right to see what time it was.
9:30 AM
Amelia stretched out her arms and slowly got out of the bed, she knew from the beginning she woke up that Owen wasn't next to her, she remembered what happend this night and looked down to her stomach and slowly caressed it, she still couldn't believe this was happening. She was still scared though, but with the support she gets, it made the scared feeling go away.
Amelia decided to walk downstairs to the kitchen, each step she got closer to the kitchen she smelled a aroma of food.
She needed food, alot of food.
When Amelia walked in the kitche she smiled at the sight of a softly singing Owen, his back was facing her and he was cooking pancakes, when Owen heard a soft giggle behind him he turned around and saw his amazing beautiful pregnant wife standing in the doorway laughing at him.
"Hi beautiful." Owen said, when he finished baking the pancake he put it on the other pancakes on a board. He walked to Amelia and softly kissed her lips, pulling away after a short time.
"Are you feeling okay? Rough night huh?" He wrapped his arm around her neck and pulled her in for a sideway hug, kissing the top of her head.
"Yes, i'm okay now, i forgot to thankyou for your help." She smiled and pecked his lips.
"You don't need to thank me baby, i'm with you every single step of the way." He smiled and caressed her beautiful face.
"You're amazing, we love you very much." Amelia giggled and puts her hand on her stomach.
"I love you both too, very much." Owen kissed Amelia's cheek and puts his hand ontop of her hand, letting their little one know they love him or her very much, Amelia locked eyes with Owen and they gave each other the biggest smile they could give.
Amelia and Owen finished breakfast together, Owen couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Amelia eating pancake after pancake, she ate six pancakes while he was still eating his third, when he saw Amelia looking at him with pleading eyes, looking at his pancake, he chuckled.
"Here Mia," Owen said and gave his pancake to Amelia.
"I love youu." Amelia giggled and ate his pancake as fast as she could.
"I called Arizona," Owen said while admiring his wife who was still eating fast.
"What?" Amelia said with her mouth full.
"I called Arizona, i told her that you were pregnant, and that we wanted a private ultrasound, are you okay with her knowing it? I told her not to tell anyone." Amelia nodded at head.
"Yes, she is the one i want as my O.B, i hope she will do that for me, i don't want another one." Owen nodded his head and looked at Amelia who made it clear that she only wanted Arizona.
"We will meet her in exam room 2, i said we will be there at 11, i called Bailey and asked her if i could take the same shift as you, so we can go there together, okay?" Owen said recieving a appreciating smile from Amelia.
"Thankyou so much, you are amazing, i love you," Amelia stood up and gave Owen a big embrace.
"I love you too baby," Owen returned the hug and kissed the top of her head, he pulled away and looked at Amelia.
"What?" She giggled and looked at him.
"When do you want to tell the others about our little miracle?" Owen smile grew wider looking at her flat stomach.
Amelia blushed and looked at him.
"After the ultrasound, i think tonight will be a good time." Amelia sat biting on her bottom lip.
"Tonight? What is tonight?"
"Diner at Meredith.. remember?" Owen's mouth turned into a 'O' shape when finally it popped into his head, he totally forgot it.
"Oh yes, sorry! My head is just too full with you and our baby, i totally forgot it! But i think that is a good idea, if you're okay with it, i am also, i'm glad you want to tell them so soon." Owen smiled at kissed her lips.
After their cosy breakfast they decided to have a warm shower together, after that they put on some comfortable clothes, they grabbed a extra set of clothes for the diner tonight.
Amelia and Owen were sitting in the car, Owen was driving with his left hand, with his right hand he held Amelia's hand, he knew that she was very nervous.
He also knew that they wouldn't get any big information, they figured Amelia was only a couple of weeks along and that meant they will only hear that there is indeed baby in her belly.
"Don't be nervous baby, it will be okay, we won't be hearing alot of information, she will only tell us that there is indeed a baby." Owen squeezed her hand, letting her know that he is there.
"I know, i'm just a little nervous." Amelia said looking out of the window.
"I know, me too, but it will be okay, we are surounded by so many friends, they are here for us, everyone loves and adores you, we will do this, okay? In 9 months we will have a beautiful baby in our lives, okay?" Amelia smiled and nodded her head.
"Yes, we will. Words can't describe how important you are for me, you support me so much, i love you so much Owen," Amelia lifted herself from her seat and quickly kissed his right cheek.
"Always Mia, Always." Owen quickly shot a glance at Amelia and gave her a wink and a beautiful smile.
When they walked in the hospital holding hands they succeeded to avoid their friends and walked in exam room 2 to be greeted by a happy Arizona.
"Goodmorning! I have 15 minutes, i lied about a quick consult for one of my regular patients." Arizona smiled at the couple.
"Thankyou so much Arizona, for helping us." Amelia smiled and was surprised when Arizona hugged her.
"Ofcourse! You guys are my friends! I'll do everything for you, but since i'm not really good at telling lies.. have you planned the big annoucement?" Arizona smiled and directed Amelia to the exam table, where Amelia lied down, Owen walked after her and stood next to her, holding her hand.
"We are planning on telling it tonight, at the diner." Owen said smiling, he kissed Amelia's hand and locked eyes with her.
"Cute! I'm very happy for you guys, i always loved the idea of you being parents, now lets have a look?" Arizona smiled when she saw how impatient they looked, they both nodded their heads.
Amelia lifted her shirt up and felt a cold wave of the gel on her stomach, Arizona put the probe on her stomach and moved it along her stomach, they all locked their eyes on the machine, who after a couple of seconds gave a clear view of what was in her stomach.
Arizona smiled and held the probe still, and pointed at the screen.
"There is your tiny human!"
Amelia and Owen looked breathless at the screen, they could barely see it, but their little one surely was there, their smiles grew wider, Owen quickly pecked Amelia's lips and looked back at the screen.
The mixure of emotions made them feel alive, they couldn't describe the feelings, it was a wave of happiness and excitement.
"The embryo is almost 3mm long right now, so you're about four weeks pregnant, the embryo splits into three different sections, In one section the brain and central nervous system are already beginning to take shape as their neural tubes develop. In the other two sections, the heart and circulatory system are already beginning to form and the lungs and intestines are in the very early stages of development, it's not visable for our eyes yet, so we havs to wait a couple of weeks, your due date will be around 15th of June." Arizona smiled at the happy couple who adored their little miracle.
"Amelia, i want you to take things slow, not too slow but slower that you are doing now, okay?"
"Yes ofcourse, we will manage it with Bailey, she will understand ofcourse." Amelia smiled at Arizona who nodded her head.
"Any signs of morning sickness?" Arizona said.
"Yes, last night! It killed me." Amelia said making Arizona laugh.
"That's normal, it will happen more, so be prepared, okay?"
"Okay, let's do this!" Amelia said clapping her hands, just like a little girl who got her candy after minutes of whining.
"So that was dr. Robbins speaking, now here is Arizona; congratulations sweetheart." Arizona said and took Amelia in embrace, after Amelia she went to hug Owen.
"I will not forget the one who did the most!" Arizona giggled and pulled away. She walked back to the monitor and printed out a sonogram for the to be parents.
"Thankyou Arizona, we owe you!" Amelia removed the gel with a towel and let her shirt drop, she stood up and hugged Arizona again.
"I really want to be a good auntie." They laughed and nodded their heads.
"I need to go, i see you tonight! Congrats again." Arizona said and gave them a wink before leaving the exam room.
Owen and Amelia looked at each other and flew in each others arms.
"This was amazing, i can't wait to see more ultrasounds." Amelia said still holding him tightly to her.
"Me too, i am so excited for this journey, i can't wait till 15th June to be honest." Owen said chuckling to his own words, he felt Amelia giggle against his chest, he smiled to himself and kissed the top of her head.
"I am so proud of you Mia," he ended the long embrace and looked into beautiful blue eyes, and so did she.
"I am also proud of you, babe," Amelia stood on her tiptoes and wrapped her arms around his neck and softly kissed him, he support her by wrapping his strong arms around her waist slowly lifting her up.
She pulled away and smiled at him.
"We are having a baby in 8 months." Amelia giggled softly and kissed his nose.
"We are having a baby in 8 months." He smiled and kissed her lips one more time before slowly setting her on her feet.
"A girl." Amelia said with a pleading look in her eyes, smiling cutely.
"A boy." Owen said after her, making them both laugh.
