A little after midnight there was a knock on her door. She knew who it was immediately she had expected him sooner. Even though he didn't know where she lived, she expected him to come find her no matter what it took after what she told him. She made her way out of bed, careful not to disturb the mess that surrounded her. She looked through the peephole to buy some time. Sure enough Burke was on the other side of the door pacing back and forth, she rolled her eyes when she noticed flowers, he wasn't going to make this easy. She let out a frustrated sigh debated whether or not to leave him outside. After another knock she finally opened the door.
"Do you realize what time it is?" doing her best to sound annoyed.
"Yeah I do but I thought we should talk about this." He says motioning to her stomach
"There is nothing to talk about" she responds in a dismissive tone, then moves to close the door. He moves fast to stop the door from closing, finally winning the struggle he walked into the apartment and closed the door behind him.
"I think there is, I want to help you."
"There is nothing for you to help me with"
"You're not going to keep it?" He asks noting the look on her face.
"No… I don't know what I'm going to do."
"Then why tell me if you're not going to have it, then why tell me at all."
"Don't yell at me. I don't know why I told you, it just slipped."
"It just slipped? Something like that doesn't just slip."
"You were kissing me and touching me and I just couldn't concentrate on keeping my mouth shut. I'm a surgeon, an intern I can't have a baby. A baby would ruin my career."
"What about me, this is my baby too you know."
"Yeah I know, I'm still mad at you for that by the way, this wouldn't be happening if it weren't for you, you and your stupid boy penis."
Letting out a little out a chuckle at her words "We could do this you know, I'd be there."
"You're a surgeon too, you work just as many hours as I do, we can't do that to a kid. Me and this baby could ruin your chances of being chief."
"I don't care about that."
Giving him a look that clearly meant she didn't believe him.
"Okay, yes I want to be chief, but it isn't more important then my baby, then our baby."
"But I can't do this, I can't be a mother. I'm not that kind of person, I'd ruin the poor kid. I just can't." she replied frustrated. Moving closer he grabs her hand.
"We'd do this together, and yes we won't be perfect but we'd love it, and provide for it. We'd do our best, that's all anyone can do."
"I don't know" she whined knowing she was losing this argument.
"Then just think about it, these are for you" smiling he gives her the flowers he's been holding. Rolling her eyes she takes them and tosses then to the couch behind her. He finally brought his attention back to the mess that surround them.
"What happened here?" he asks slightly cringing hoping she didn't create this mess.
Deciding to use this to her advantage" I'm a messy person. Do you really want a baby from me, there is a good chance this child could turn out exactly like me"
"Is that a yes? I don't mind if our baby is like you"
"I'm still thinking, so you can go," she said pointing to the door.
"I was hoping I could stay here with you tonight."
" I already had sex with you today, so no you can go home."
"I wasn't asking for sex, I just want to be with you and our baby tonight." He replied sweetly.
"You can't pressure me, and for that to happen you have to go." walking to the door and opening it for him to go. Before he left he bent down to give her a soft kiss and whispered, "Goodnight I'll see you later, take care of my baby."

He didn't see her till rounds the next morning. When he asked his questions they were directed towards her, but when she stalled O'Malley jumped it and Bailey put him on the case. He wanted to talk to her to see if she made a decision, by the way she ignored him during rounds he didn't think so, but there was no harm in asking.
Even though he promised not to pressure he couldn't help dreaming of what their child would look like. Dreaming of being a family. It amazed him that a small free sprit woman held all his dreams in her hands.
He finally had a chance to talk to her after his surgery. She at the nurse's station, snapping at a nurse. He prepared himself for the worst as he walked towards her.
"Is there a problem Dr. Yang" he asked looking between Cristina and the nurse.
"No of course not" when the nurse opened her mouth to protest, Cristina gave her an angry look that sent the nurse scurrying off. They finally had enough privacy were they could talk some.
"I saw that you're with Montgomery-Sheppard today. How's that going." He asked hoping that she'd catch the real meaning of what he wanted to know.
"It's horrible, I think Bailey is trying to punish me."
She didn't understand so he continued to push. "Or maybe someone is trying to tell you something."
"That there is something worse then giving enemas all day." She still wasn't catching on. So he finally said what was on his mind.
"No that's not what I meant, maybe it's a lesson to show you, you're not a as bad with kids as you think you are." He walked away before he heard something he didn't want to hear. She didn't have much time to think about what he said before her pager went off. It was a 911 call.
At the end of the day he saw her going into an on call room. He found her in the dark. When she saw the light that glared through the room when the door opened she wiped at her face hoping he didn't notice the tears. But he saw them, and he walked to the bed and sat next to her, putting his arms around her he asked her "what's wrong?"
"The baby died" his breathe caught in his throat for a minute till he realized she was talking about the case she was working on. Tightening his arms around her he whispers, "It's going to be okay"
"Promise" she replies as she looks up at him. He understands that she is no longer talking about her case. "Yeah I promise" he reassures her.
With that Burke and Cristina were going to be parents.
A/N: You may have noticed a few season 2 references, I couldn't help it. Thanks for the reviews. This is my first Fanfic and so far I'm not too happy with it, but I'll continue writing as long as someone is reading.
