Kyra walked into Chris' office after Hunter and Meredith left. "Hey." She said when she did.
"Hey, how was your day?" He asked her.
"It was good. How was your day?" She asked as she sat down across from him.
"It was alright. Adam stopped by."
"What did he want?" She couldn't believe Adam stopped by.
"He wanted to tell me that he kissed you and he had wanted you back but you didn't want that. So, he said he's going back home and leaving us alone." Chris looked at her. "Kyra, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I overreacted about things with Adam. But I know he wanted you back. However, I know you love me and you want our marriage. So I'm sorry."
She sighed and walked over to him. "I love you, Chris. More than anything. I'm glad you know that." She kissed him. "But you have a lot to make up to me."
"I do." He smiled and kissed her. "I know I do and I will. Now since we both are done for the day. Let's go home." She nodded and they headed out.
Hunter and Meredith arrived home after going to dinner after therapy. It still seemed unreal that they were having a baby. "So, what's next?" He asked Meredith.
"Well, we have to decide which room is going to the nursery." She looked at him. "And we need to move back into our bedroom. Both of us."
He looked at her and smiled. "I agree. And I had an idea about the nursery. I think it should be across from our room."
She smiled. "I agree. I think we can start redoing it. Maybe do a neutral color until we find out what we're having. But I think we're having a boy. Just my thought." She replied. "So, which do you want? Boy or girl?"
"I don't care either way as long as we have a healthy baby."
She nodded. "Alright. Let's move back into our room." He followed her upstairs and to the guest room that he had been staying in. He got his stuff and headed to the master bedroom. Soon both were moved back in.
Seth pulled up to the house the next day. He wasn't about to give on getting Meredith back yet. He got out of the car and walked up to the door. He figured Hunter had left for the day and Meredith was alone. He knocked on the door and waited for her to answer.
"What do you want Seth?" She asked when she opened the door. "I thought it was clear I never wanted to see you again and you aren't welcome to stop by."
"I wanted to talk to you. Meredith, please can we talk?"
"I think my wife told you to leave." Hunter said walking up behind her. "You should do it."
"I want to talk to Meredith. Not you." Seth replied.
Hunter laughed and moved in front of Meredith. "I thought I made myself clear the other day. Did you think I was kidding?"
"I'm not afraid of you." Seth said looking at him.
"You should be. But I won't do anything right now." He smiled. "You will get what you deserve when you least expect it. Now, get off my property before I do something I shouldn't. And as of now, I'm filing a restraining order against you. So stay away from Meredith." He stepped back in the house and shut the door. He hoped Seth got the message. He was tired of playing this game with him. He left for work and arranged for him and Meredith to see a lawyer and file the restraining order against Seth.
Meredith started to do her daily chores when the doorbell rang. She hoped it wasn't Seth again. She walked over and opened the door. She smiled when she saw her sister, April.
"Hey, I wasn't expecting you." She said when let her in.
"Well, we both have been busy recently and I wanted to come and see how you were doing."
"Well, thank you." She smiled. "Can I get you something to drink?"
"Coffee or tea is good." Meredith nodded and they walked into the kitchen. Meredith made her sister a cup of coffee and herself a cup of tea. "Thanks." April said taking it. "So, what's going with you?"
"Well." Meredith smiled. "I'm having a baby."
"What?" April said with a smile. "You're pregnant?"
"I am." She replied. "I just found out the other day. We were very surprised."
"I would say so since your therapist said no intimate contact during therapy." April looked at her. "How did this happen? I mean you and Hunter were to have no intimate contact and now you're pregnant? It is his right? Please tell me you didn't sleep with Seth again."
"No, I didn't." Meredith replied a little annoyed. "On our anniversary, Hunter came over to give me my gift. And I gave him his. We just didn't want to spend our anniversary apart. We didn't expect it to happen. But it did and now we're having a baby."
"I didn't mean to imply anything. I'm just shocked." She looked at her sister. "But I'm happy for you. I know this is something you and Hunter have wanted." She got up and hugged her sister. "I am happy for you. And I can't wait for a niece or nephew."
"Thanks." Meredith smiled. "I know you didn't mean anything. It just hurt to think you would think I would sleep with Seth when Hunter and I were trying to work our marriage out."
April sighed. "I'm sorry. I just didn't think when I said it. I should have known you wouldn't sleep with Seth when you and Hunter are working out your marriage. Do you forgive me?"
Meredith laughed. "Of course I do. You're my sister. I love you. But know I love Hunter and him and our child and my marriage is all I want."
"I know and you're getting it." April smiled. "Now, did you want to go out for lunch?"
"Sure." Meredith smiled and they headed out.
Hunter talked to his lawyer and filed the restraining order against Seth. But he wasn't done with him yet. The restraining order was the first step. Hunter was going to make sure Seth knew to stay away from Meredith and his family. After leaving the lawyer's office, Hunter headed to the office.
"Everything okay?" Shawn asked when he walked in Hunter's office.
"Yeah, everything is good." Hunter replied. "Meredith and I are having a baby. We just found out."
"Well congratulations." Shawn replied. He looked at Hunter. "Are you happy about it?"
"Yeah, I am." Hunter looked at him. "You know I've always wanted to be a father and now I'm getting that chance."
Shawn sat down in the chair across from Hunter. "So how are things with you and Meredith?"
"They're good." He replied. "Therapy has help so much and it really has made us see our marriage. And why the affair happened. We have really worked things out. And now, with the baby, we are back to being a married couple. I've moved back into the master bedroom. Things are good."
"Are you sure the baby is yours? I mean it could be his?"
"No, the doctor said the baby was conceived on our anniversary. So, I know it's mine plus Meredith stopped seeing Seth when I caught her and we agreed to work on our marriage."
"Alright. I was just making sure."
Hunter looked at him. "I know." He sighed. "Shawn, you're my business partner and best friend, and I love you like a brother. But I love Meredith and we are back together. We're having this baby. I want the affair in the past so, I don't want you bringing it up all the time either. Even when I'm complaining as married men do. I want it done."
"Okay." Shawn replied. "I understand that. I just didn't want her to blow your life apart again. She's young and she hasn't experienced everything there is."
Hunter sighed. "I know she's young but that doesn't matter. It's done Shawn. I never realized that you didn't really like Meredith until now."
"You're right. I don't really like her. I think you made a mistake leaving Stephanie for her. And after the affair, it just made it worse. I'm sorry. I am. But that is my opinion."
"And I respect that but nothing is going to change. I don't care if everyone in the world hates that Meredith and I are together. It doesn't matter to me. And Shawn, if you want to continue to be friends and business partners, I suggest you get over what problem you have with Meredith. I have no problem buying you out of the business."
Shawn looked at him. "I understand that you're married to Meredith. I was just stating my opinion. I just don't want you hurt again."
"I appreciate that. I don't believe I will. Now this subject is closed." Shawn nodded and headed out of Hunter's office. Hunter hoped that was the end of it and he wondered why he never noticed that Shawn didn't like Meredith.
