Ellen POV
I wake up and my head is spinning. I have had this stomach bug all week and I just can't stop with the nausea. I look over at the clock and it reads 7:08am. I get up and go downstairs to the kitchen where Patrick is cooking eggs. The smells makes me super nauseous but I try and keep it down.
"Morning Ellie, want some eggs?" he turns and looks at me as he is cooking.
I slowly inch up on to the stool and take deep breaths, I can feel the color drain out of my face.
"Are you alright," he looks concerned, taking the cooked eggs off the stove.
"Yeah just..." I can barely say before running back into the guest bathroom right off the kitchen and I empty my stomach, which doesn't have much in it, into the toilet.
"Still got that stomach bug?" He says, he is sitting by my side and holding my hair as I puke.
After I am empty, I look over at him and he wipes my mouth with a towel.
"I am sorry, it's the eggs," the thought of them make me completely sick.
"I'll go throw them out and just eat cereal," he smiles at me, helping me up and into the kitchen again on to one of the breakfast bar stools.
"Thanks, god how did I get so lucky?" I lean back in my chair, I know we have to get to the set soon but I don't even think about that.
He walks over and throws the eggs out, "I'm the lucky one."
"Has Tal already caught the bus to school?" I grab a piece of bread and stick it into the toaster.
"Yep, she didn't want to at first but I made her get on it, we would have been late if we took her to school," he grabs and apple and takes a bite out of it.
"We gotta get going soon, Shonda hates us when we are late," I smile at him, feeling the color return to my face. I grab the piece of toast and eat it quickly.
"Are you sure you can go in today? I could call her and talk to her."
"Patrick, I am fine. I think it was just the eggs," I stand up off the stool and start walking upstairs and he follows me.
"Ok, but you have to keep it easy, my favorite woman can't be getting hurt again,"
"Paddy, we only have three weeks of filming left, I'll be fine," I smiled at him, I grabbed some Tylenol and took two pills.
"I know, I can't believe we are almost finished filming season 4," he smiled at me while pulling his usual black shirt and black pants from the closet.
"I can't either," I pulled out some skinny jeans and pulled them up and I tried to button them but they wouldn't.
"You have got to be fucking kidding me," I try and try to button them.
"What's wrong?" He peaked back in from the bathroom with his tooth brush in his hand.
"My favorite jeans won't button, I hate bloating," I groaned, look down and my stomach is poked out just a smidge.
"Ah," he goes back into the bathroom and brushes his teeth.
After I finally find jeans that can button, I go and brush my teeth and pull my hair back into a pony tail. I grab my iPhone from the bedside table and go down to the living room. Patrick has his black sneakers, black skinny jeans, a black v-neck that lets a small amount of chest hair poke out the V, and his leather jacket. God he looked so sexy.
"I forgot to tell you, I have a doctors appointment today," I said grabbing my purse from the table.
"Ok, want me to come with you?" He asked as he grabbed his car keys.
"No but we have to take the Mercedes so I don't have to drive your car to the doctors," I said and he put his keys back and grabs mine. We both head outside and he closes the door, locking it.
"Why do you need to go to the doctors anyway? Are you going to see if it's something worse?" He asks as he opens the door for me at the car.
"No, gynecologist. I got put on new birth control two months ago and it's giving me bad side effects," I climb in and he gets in also.
"You have fun with that, will you come back to the set afterward?" He asked as he started the car and took my hand.
"Yes, I've already talked to Shonda about this," I answer back and stare out the window. The sun has already rose and made the view over the hills look incredible.
"Ok, just making sure," he smiled over at me and continued to drive. We pulled into the studio lot and everyone was there. We went straight into hair and make up, not bothering to go into our trailers. We film two scenes together and I film one with Sandra before its time to go to my appointment.
"I'll be back in about an hour," I walk over and kiss Patrick as he's getting his touch ups before he has to shoot a scene with Lauren aka Rose. She is a sweet person, I just don't like her kissing my fiancé even if it's just acting. I say goodbye to Shonda before grabbing my purse and the keys from Patrick's pants and leaving.
On the drive to my doctors office, so many things go through my mind. Why am I so sick this past week, maybe it's the birth control. If it is then I will have to be put on new birth control which is hell to change between, if only I didn't have to take it anymore. No, Patrick needs to start wearing condoms even if they don't feel as good, I hate being the only one protecting us.
I pull into the parking lot, grabbing my purse and head inside. There aren't many people in here which is good, maybe I won't be here long. I sit down and grab one of the magazines sitting there about parenthood. Maybe there's something in here for me and Tal to do.
"Ms. Pompeo," the nurse pops her head out the door after a few minutes and I go back with her.
"If you will take your pants off and have a seat on the table, your doctor will be in in just a few minutes," she smiles as she closes the door behind her. I take my pants off and grab a blanket and set it over my legs after I sit on the table. Ten minutes later the doctor comes in and starts asking questions.
"So what seems to be the problem Ms. Pompeo?" She sits on the rolling chair and puts my chart down on the table.
"The new birth control I am on is having bad side effects. I'm nauseous a lot and get dizzy very easily. Also I've been bloated and my breast are so tender."
"Mhm, when was your last period?" She writes down notes as I talk.
"January, but you said that with this birth control, my periods would go away so I don't think there's a problem there."
"Is there any chance you could be pregnant?" She raised her eyebrow at me and I think for a second.
"Nope," I shake my head.
"Alright, well I'll get someone to come take some blood just to be on the safe side and check all your hormone levels," she writes more in the chart before leaving. After a few minutes a nurse comes in to take my blood and quickly leaves. Twenty minutes pass before the doctor comes back in, her facial expression has changed.
"Is there a problem doctor?" I question and she sits down in the chair.
"Well no, congratulations you are pregnant Ms Pompeo," She beams at me, I feel the blood drain out of my face and my stomach begins to do somersaults. How could this happen, I don't know if I'm ready. My mind races and it all comes back to one thing. Patrick.
An; She's Pregnant :D Yay! Alright I had some plans for this to be uploaded yesterday but my keyboard broke and I had to get it replaced :(
On the bright side, I got it up today! The next part will be Patrick's reaction and how they handle it.
Regarding All I Ever Wanted; If you read my other fic, I will have another part as soon as I write it! I had the next part written but when I had the keyboard on my laptop replaced, I lost a lot of my files and that was one of them. I am trying to find a way to either get it back or find it but if I cant, I will have to re-write it so it will be out later this week!
