The Next Day

My eyes slowly fluttered open. I looked around at the room it was like a flashback from when I woke up yesterday. Addison was asleep on my arm again, holding on tightly to my hand.

"Addie, you're crushing my hand." I complained. She shot up and almost hit me with her hand as she pulled it free.

"God Callie, you startled me." She said.

"Sorry. Is the baby okay? Am I okay?" I asked. Addison nodded.

"Considering that would be your second grand mal seizure you are doing fantastic and the baby is doing pretty good." Addison said smiling. I nodded and rubbed my stomach.

"Did Mark leave?" I asked.

"He's passed out in Sam's office. He refused to leave until he knew you were okay." Addison said.

"What about Pete?" I asked.

"Cooper fixed his nose and now he's out getting drinks with Sheldon and Cooper." Addison said. I sighed.

"What's the game plan here?" I asked gesturing to my stomach.

"Well, we've got you on a drip that will hopefully keep you from having any more seizures. Hopefully with a close watch on you, you will be able to safely carry the baby to term. Really its touch and go right now." Addison said. I nodded.

"So I could carry to term or I could have a massive seizure at any minute and die?" I asked. Addison nodded.

"Yeah, pretty much. I know this is scary Callie but you need to remain calm or it will just get worse." Addison warned. I nodded and exhaled.

"Okay." I told her shakily.

"You need to let Mark in. You're scared out of you mind Callie, you need him." Addison told me.

"I just, I feel like I'm betraying George. Because I love Mark so much, I might love him more than I loved George. I feel like I'm betraying George." I said and started to cry. Addison pulled me into a hug.

"Hey, it's okay Callie. George would want you to be happy. You need to let him in." Addison said. I sighed.

"Can you leave so I can call him?" I asked. Addison started to get up but Mark appeared in the doorway.

"I'm sorry, I just couldn't stay away. I'm worried sick about you, because I love you so much." Mark said. Addison smiled at me and slipped past Mark out the door.

"I'm sorry I pushed you away." I whispered. Mark smiled and came farther into the room.

"It's okay." Mark said and took my hand.

"I was scared by how much I love you." I confessed.

"Me too." Mark admitted. I smiled and he kissed me gently.

"Don't leave me again." I begged.

"Never." Mark promised. I smiled.

"Get some rest okay Cal?" Mark said. I nodded.

"Hold me?" I asked. Mark smiled and climbed into bed with me.

"Of course." He said. I rolled over on my side and he wrapped his arms around me. He rubbed circles on my stomach and the little boy inside me kicked in response. I fell asleep with Mark's breath falling in warm waves on my neck and I slipped into a dream.

George was standing in front of me. I slowly sat up and rubbed my eyes.

"George is that you?" I asked. George smiled and nodded.

"Hey Cal. I miss you." He said. I nodded.

"I miss you too George." I said.

"I'm glad you finally let him in. You two are good for each other. I still love you Callie, but I want you to be happy and move on. Raise our son with Mark. But never let him forget me." George said rubbing my cheek with his thumb. I nodded.

"He will always know who his daddy is and what he did." I promised. George smiled.

"Good, that's all I ask. That, and that you be happy." George said.

"I wish you were here though." I admitted.

"I am always with you, looking down and smiling. Don't name him after me though, poor kid needs a good name. Not something like George." George said smiling.

"Okay, maybe as a middle name?" I asked. George smiled.

"That would be okay, but you don't need to." George reminded me. I nodded.

"It's time for me to go Callie, but remember what I told you. Go on in life, and live it abundantly." George said and kissed me lightly on the cheek. Then he was gone.

I woke up in Mark's arms. I felt a sharp pain in my stomach.

"Ouch." I breathed. Mark twitched and woke up.

"Callie, are you okay?" Mark asked. I nodded.

"Yeah, I think so, he's just kicking." I assured him. Mark nodded and kissed the top of my head.

"Go back to sleep." Mark whispered. I nodded and closed my eyes.
