Sorry about the delay with this chapter, I've been filled with school work and other things. But the Christmas Break is coming up so hopefully i'll be abe to update more often :)

Thanks For All your Comments!

To Ollyt: I didn't actually think about about that until you told me. I know, the gossip at SGH is very high, but Owen is a very kept man and he doesn't like the gossip much, so let's just say he ignores it ;D

To Kou Haruko: I'm sorry for not giving you enough X), and i agree, They will have beautiful babies one day.

To Drottningu: I'm currently searching for a beta and yes its going to end up as a Owen and Cristina Fic.


The next day arrived and Owen was somewhat excited and anxious to meet Preston. Preston had answers to many of Owen's curious questions, some of which he knew Cristina would never talk about. Cristina and Owen dropped Connor off at the day-care on the third floor and headed off into their own direction getting ready for another day at work.

As Owen walked towards the trauma bay, he found Meredith busy talking to a couple of the nurses about something. He walked towards her thinking that she was going to help him today with the incoming traumas. He waited patiently for her conversation with the nurses to finish before speaking to her. Once they were finished Meredith turned around giving Owen a smile.

"Hi Dr Hunt" Meredith said quiet awkwardly, yesterday she had found out that Preston was back in Seattle and she knew that this would cause an insane amount of trouble between Cristina and Owen.

Owen gave her a sceptical look, confused to why she had greeted him in the tone that she did. "Dr Grey" Owen addressed formally, "Is there something going on?"

Meredith quickly shook her head placing a smile on her face. "Nope, everything's just fine" She lied.

"Okay… well are you and your league of interns on my service today?"

"No"

"Okay, well what are you doing in my wing then?" Owen crossed his arm across his chest waiting to hear what she had to say. She sighed and smiled, "I need to talk to you, its kind of important"

Owen nodded waiting for her to carry on, "Not here" She said looking around noticing that she had some audiences. She took his arm and lead him into an empty trauma room, she hastily closed the blinds and locked the door shut. Owen was really starting to get curious, Meredith was being so hidden about what she was about to tell him.

Owen cleared his throat hinting to her that he was still waiting for an answer, she turned to look at him and cleared her throat before she started, she had to admit that she was somewhat nervous. It's not everyday that you'd tell your best friend's husband that her ex-fiancée was back in town.

"So are you going to tell me or not Shepherd?" Owen asked. Meredith and Derek had gotten married a little while back and she had officially changed her name to Meredith Shepherd.

"Yes…" She started; clasping her hands together, "Well you see, an old Seattle colleague of ours has returned, but the thing is, you've never met him before and your first meeting with each other may be awkward"

Owen leaned against the wall and crossed his arms across his chest, he gave her a frown indicating that he was confused about what she had just said, she noticed his confusion and sighed rubbing her head before repeating what she had just said. Hearing it the second time, Owen understood but didn't know who this "old Seattle colleague" was.

"So who's this man?" Owen asked straight out. Silence took over them before Meredith told him who it was, "Preston Burke"

Owen pushed himself off the wall and walked towards her. "I met this guy yesterday" He reported, "And it seemed pretty normal to me. But I'm not sure why he wanted to talk to me about Cristina. Is there something I should be knowing?" He asked, already knowing that there was something behind this guy.

"Yeah… well you see. How should I say this?"

Just then, there was a loud knock on the door, they both turned their attention to the door and they could clearly hear the trauma unit packing up.

"Dr Hunt we need you out here" A nurse shouted over her continuous knocking. Owen quickly opened the door and before he left he looked over at Meredith, "Incoming Trauma Shepherd, We'll finish this conversation later"

Before Meredith could tell him how important this information was, Owen had already left with the nurse to help out with the incoming trauma. Meredith sighed and left the trauma room mumbling, "don't say I didn't try".

Meanwhile, Preston and Richard were in Richard's office talking. Richard was surprised that Preston had returned but he was still happy to see him, in Richard's mind he wanted Preston back into working at Seattle Grace. Preston was, without a doubt one of the best Cardiothoracic surgeon in the country.

"It's good to have you back Preston" Richard smiled. "You know, we would love to have you back and working with us"

"It's good to see you too Richard, but I'm just here on a visit"

"Oh, well it's good to see you Preston"

Preston nodded and the two men went back to updating each other on their lives for the past 7 years. However, Preston never did question anything about Cristina which Richard found insanely strange.

An hour later and Richard was paged to the pit, there had been a crash on the highway and many of the injured people were now flooding In and every help was needed.

"I need to get this page, it's nice talking to you again Preston, maybe we can talk again later?" Richard asked grabbing his lab coat and heading for the door in a hurry. Preston nodded and watched the man leave to get his page.

Several hours later and all the incoming trauma had died down. Owen looked down at his watch noticing that it said 1.23. He cursed silently to himself knowing that he was late for his "lunch date" with Preston. He walked towards the cafeteria in a slight hurry hoping that Preston was still there. But on his way to his destination, he was interrupted by a nurse.

"Dr Hunt, Dr Yang is in surgery and no-one has taken Connor to lunch. The teachers down there want to know if your going to collect him now or not?"

Owen really wanted to speak with Preston and he was already over an hour late. He debated in his head until he came up with his route. "I'll get him now" Owen said to the nurse. She nodded and he rushed off down the day-care to pick up Connor for lunch. He was already late and being another five or ten minutes late wouldn't make a difference he thought to himself.

As he entered the day-care, Connor was sitting in the corner of the room silently going through a book. Owen walked towards his son and bent down to his level, Connor looked up at him with an upset look and looked away from his father.

"I'm sorry buddy. Mommy and me were caught up with patients" Owen explained to the four year old. Owen waited and Connor looked back at his dad and raised his arms telling Owen to pick him up.

"Am I forgiven?"

Connor silently nodded and Owen was thankful that Connor didn't make much fuss like what he did usually. Owen again, rushed towards the cafeteria holding his son tightly.

As he reached his destination, he found Preston reading a newspaper with a cup of coffee in front of him. He stopped and looked at the man not knowing what this conversation was going to be about. Connor looked at his father confused at why they had stopped.

"Daddy?" Connor whispered, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah buddy. We are having lunch with one of Mommy's old friends… I think"

And with that, Owen started walking again and headed towards Preston's table.
