~John's POV~

"Baby?" I ask Luna as she has been kind of distant with me "everything okay?" It has been months since the merger and Luna gained some new friends. We or she dealt with Jorge Castillo, he tried to send his thugs to kill me and Luna but Luna reacted by flying down and electrocuting them with her power and added a message saying that you hit me hard and I hit ten times harder. She also talked with her dad and he decided to call some favors in so now Jorge Castillo has his accounts frozen and they are taking away his businesses.

"Yeah" she smiles kissing me, quickly pulling away "can you take the girls to daycare? I've got some stuff to do" she leaves before I say anything. She's hiding something. But what?

"I know girls" seeing my daughters stare up at me, Naya has her hand in her mouth while Amara has strained peas in her hand and face "mommy is acting weird"

"Hey man" I see Elliot come in "mind if I watch over the girls for the day?"

"Sure" nodding my head "got nothing to do today?"

"I noticed that the girls need to get some new clothes" he says "and Mia is in town, she's helping a friend with a new fashion like for babies and she remembered the twins so...you be Luna don't have to go shopping for clothes if your too busy"

He is right about that "I'll let Luna know...are you okay with Meredith's schedule?"

Nodding his head "Yeah, she gave me her schedule so that we can schedule time around it when she's off and when I'm off. The yearly fundraiser my parents throw for orphans, she can make it" Luna and I will also go since she's a Morningstar and she's going for her dad "how is the building of the dream home coming?"

"Great" I say "we decided on living on the water front, from what I'm told the house should be ready by the end of the year"

"Does Luna seem more sketchy?" He asks me

"I thought I was going crazy" looking at him "so it isn't just me" my pager goes off.

"You go" Elliot waves his hand to me "I'll watch over the twins and take them shopping" nodding my head "also Luna has been more sick" she has? Thinking about it, Luna has been exhibiting signs of morning sickness and other things that lead to pregnancy. Her breasts have become more tender and a tad bit swollen. Oh my god. Is Luna pregnant?

~Luna's POV~

"Congratulations Dr. Morningstar-Shepherd" the OB, Dr...whatever her name is. She's blonde with blue eyes and normal skin "your pregnant, here is"

I look and smile zoning her out as I see my baby "I'm about ten weeks pregnant and for my height and weight I'm perfectly healthy and fine in my pregnancy"

"Yes" nodding her head

"I'm also going into fetal medicine" I tell her, she nods her head. Pulling the ultrasound wand from me, the one where they do it transvaginal "could I have a photo?" She nods her head printing me a photo.

"So" she says "I'll see you at your next check up?"

"Yeah" nodding my head too focused on the fact that I'm actually pregnant.

Meredith cuts me off saying "The Chief drinks"

"Okay..." not getting it "mom drank all the time"

"Yeah but mom" she says "paced herself, the Chief...he's not"

Stopping, I look at her "Mere this is serious"

"You can't tell anyone" she says

"Mere"

"I mean it" firmly saying "I'm going to do a whipple soon"

"A whipple?" Exclaiming harshly "Mere, that is a fifth year procedure that if done wrong you could kill the guy"

"I've been practicing with the Chief" she says not getting the point.

My pager goes off and I see I'm being paged to the lobby "I've got to go" leaving to the lobby, I see that it was Bailey who paged me "Bailey, Derek" Derek is also here.

"Is your sister sleeping with the chief?" She demands

"I'm sorry?" I ask

Shaking her head "So no...there is something wrong with the Chief and" Looking around, I sigh "You know something" Bailey accuses me "what do you know?"

Pressing my lips together before motioning for them to come closed "You didn't hear this from me and if anyone asks you didn't hear me say this but...his judgement has been impaired"

"Does he have a tumor?" Derek asks "cause if he has a tumor"

"This is something" I say "that is not a rumor but...he has been going to Joe's more"

"And?" Bailey asks

"And it's not to chat" I add

"Oh my god" Derek realizes what I'm saying, looking around he asks "does he have a problem?"

"Problem?" Bailey demands "what problem?"

"You didn't hear anything from me" walking away from them "but yes" Derek curses while Bailey demands to know what is going on.

~Time Skip~

I watch as Meredith practiced a whipple. Alex, Cristina, Jackson, Meredith and I are eating lunch "That is a lot of food" Cristina says. Yeah I have five sausage pizzas slices, a chicken salad with a bunch of fruit, ten cookies and a lot of water.

"She's right" Alex agrees "more than usual"

"I'm just burning more calories" smiling as I sit across from Jackson and Meredith "I hear Barbie is back"

"A pet scan" Alex tells me

"If you had to choose between the thing you love" Cristina asks

"What thing?" Jackson asks

"Cristina is in this thing" waving my hand at the stupid nonsense.

"Surgery" Cristina continues "and the person you love, which would you choose?"

"You would choose Izzie" Meredith says smiling "right? Because you two are gonna get back together"

"Dump her ass" I say, Jackson laughs at my choice of words "think about the last three years Alex, Barbie does not have a good track record with relationships. She ruins them"

"Wait" Jackson asks "why do you have to choose?"

"That doesn't matter, you just do" Cristina says "which is it? Surgery or love?"

"Why not both?" I ask as Jackson says "I want both"

"That's what I said" Meredith agrees with him

"You can't have both" shaking her head

"Why the hell not?" Jackson counters with Cristina.

"Why the hell is he here?" She demands

"He's in the whipple with Meredith" I explain "also he's my friend" Jackson smiles at that.

"Your my friend too" he says

"Fine" waving the carrot as I eat the second pizza "you cannot have both, you have to choose"

"Choose what?" Izzie asks coming in, we are silent looking at her "uh, my...pet-scan got pushed back an hour, so I thought I'd join you for lunch"

"So it's true" tilting my head "your back..."

"Okay, that" pointing to what Meredith is doing "you have to give up that, learning the procedure. Tuning out the world until you get it, like, you know, doing the procedure is the only thing that matters"

"Surgery or love" I say eating my third pizza "you have to choose"

"Why?" Izzie asks

"Yeah" Jackson agrees "that's what I said"

"Okay! That's not the point!" Cristina exclaims "you know you couldn't do it, you know you'd choose the procedure"

"Fine!" Meredith concedes "if I had to choose, gun to my head I'd choose surgery"

"Thank you" Cristina smiles

"It's ridiculous" Izzie says "surgery is just a job, it's not the thing you run home to. If you lose your job you can get another, but if you lose your love...if you think your losing your love you can't get it back"

"This is what you talk about during lunch?" Jackson asks

"Not all the time" I say "sometimes we talk about how Alex here years ago gave half the staff on the surgical floor syphilis"

He coughs on his drink "What?" Looking around at the smiles from Cristina and Meredith while Alex is glaring at me "that happened?"

"My sister even gave the surgical staff" Meredith says "a sex talk, hours. First hour was protection and the rest was the many ways to please your partner"

John comes in then "Hey babe"

"What's wrong?" He asks, I stare at him as he comes over all flustered "I didn't see you in the cafeteria where you normally eat and my mind wandered off to you being kidnapped, a corpse, your hand on a bomb again"

"Again?" Jackson asks

"My wife had her hand on a bomb a few years ago" John tells him "why are you in here?"

"Watching Meredith" I say eating some fruit "she's going to do a whipple today"

"Really?" John asks "given how much the Chief drinks?"

Everyone is silent "You told him?!" Meredith exclaims

Shaking my head "I didn't tell him"

"Wasn't it obvious?" John asks, we stare at him "I thought he was going to rehab..."

"Wait!" Alex exclaims "the Chief is a drunk? Should he even be cutting?"

"Yes" Meredith nods her head "he can and he is no drunk"

"Mere" Cristina says "do you know how serious this is? Does anyone else know?"

"My brother" John tells them "he's going to the board, he overheard you girls talking. He also told me you were in OB"

Sighing harshly "I'm not sick" shaking my head, pulling out the photo "I'm pregnant"

"What?!" People exclaim in shock as John smiles brightly picking me up and spins me around before carefully setting me down and kisses me.
