Meredith, Cristina, and April sat in the cafeteria, eating their lunch. As the twisted sisters talked, April sat there thinking about what happened a few nights before. She hated that she kept it from him that long. She knew that it would blow up in her face if she didn't tell him. She was planning on telling him, but it felt too soon, she wasn't ready for what the result of telling him would entail.

As Meredith and Cristina talked, they spotted Jackson coming into the cafeteria. They noticed him looking over at their table.

"Hey Dr. Mc Pretty Eyes, we got a seat for you right here" Cristina teased. Mc Pretty Eyes was apparently the new interns' name for him.

At the mention of the name April turned around and found him standing there. He looked at her, with what felt like the most disgusted look.

"Jackson!" she called out to him

He quickly turned around and walked out. April sighed and turned back around in her chair. Meredith and Cristina looked at each other then back at April.

"What was that all about?" Meredith asked

"Nothing" April answered getting back to her lunch

"Nuh-uh, don't play that nothing card," Cristina said

"Yeah, we know something is up. You two have been acting really strange for the past few days" Meredith said

"Oh my god, you slept with him didn't you?" Cristina asked with a smirk

"Cristina!" Meredith warned seeing the look on April's face

"Looks like I won the bet" she grinned

"What bet?" April asked

"There was this bet going around the hospital, where people guessed how long it would be before you guys hook up," Cristina said, "and looks like I won!"

"Hate to burst your bubble Yang but I didn't sleep with him!" April said

"Awww man" Cristina whined

"So what's really going on?" Meredith asked

"Stuff, that's what's going on" April answered

______________

Jackson sat in the conference room, having his lunch. It was the only place he could be without bumping into April, other than the men's bathroom.

As he sat there, thinking about that night, the door to the room opened up.

"Oh, here he is," Alex said walking in, with Mama Avery right behind him "Looking all bummed"

Jackson looked up from his lunch.

"Mom what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in Boston by now?" Jackson asked his mother

"I just came to check up on you before I leave," she said

"Well I'm good, so you can go now," he said

"Dude we both know you're not good," Alex said

Catherine walked up to the desk and took a seat next to him.

"Have you talked to April?" she asked

"No" he answered

"Baby you should talk to her" Catherine encouraged

"I don't want to talk to her mom! She kept Lydia being mine a secret from me!" he said

"I know, and that's wrong, but for Lydia's sake, you need to talk to her. We don't know the reason for her not wanting you to know" she said

"Plus Lydia's been asking about you," Alex said

"She has?" Jackson asked

"She keeps asking me if you're ok, she saw how mad you were when you left that night" Alex answered

"Lydia was there?" Catherine asked

"She walked in on us arguing," Jackson said

"Look..." Mama Avery said taking her son's hand "You need to talk to her. Don't let Lydia suffer for it. It's April you're mad at, not her"

Jackson understood what his mother said, but right now, he found it very hard to talk to her. Catherine got up from the chair.

"Goodbye baby," she said bending over kissing his cheek "Be good"

She walked over the door "Goodbye Dr. Karev"

"Bye Dr. Avery" Alex answered

As she walked out the door, she looked back "Remember what I said" she reminded

_________________

"Goodnight Mommy" Lydia said getting under the blankets on her bed

"Goodnight sweetie," April said bending down kissing her on the forehead "Love you"

"Love you too" she smiled

April tucked her in and silently left the room, but stopped when her daughter spoke.

"Mommy, is Dr. Jackson ok?" Lydia asked for what seemed like the one-millionth time that day

"I already told you, he's ok" April lied

"Are you sure?" She asked

"I'm sure. Now go to sleep" April said

"Ok" Lydia said getting comfortable in her bed as she closed her eyes

April left the bedroom, closing the door behind her. Once she was gone Lydia opened up her eyes again. She knew something was wrong with Dr. Jackson, why else would he be yelling. And why was he yelling at her? Was he mad at her?

April went down the hall to her bedroom. Once she got in, she plopped herself down on the bed. She had to tell Lydia, and soon. She's starting to ask questions and she can't keep lying to her.

Suddenly she heard a knock on her bedroom door. She got up and opened it. On the other side stood Jo, with a large tub of Chocolate Ripple ice cream. She held up the tub and two spoons.

"This always makes me feel better" she stated before lowering them "But then again I am pregnant, so anything makes me feel better"

April giggled at the gesture.

"I also have click flicks lined up for us to watch downstairs," Jo said

"I could use a good chick flick, and a tub of ice cream," April said

"Good, let's go," Jo said grabbing onto April's hand

Jo led her down to the living room. Once they got there, they opened up the tub, put in the DVD and began their unofficial girls night.

____________________

April and Jo sat there, tears rolling down their faces. Ice cream and a sad chick flick seemed like a good idea an hour ago, but now, they were an emotional wreck.

"I need some tequila" April stated trying to hold back tears

"I need a burger...and some fries...with a large strawberry shake," Jo said as she sobbed "...and maybe a taco" she looked up at the screen and another sad scene in the movie began "...definitely a taco" she added

Just then they heard the front door open and closed. Alex stepped into the living room. He stared at the empty ice cream tub and looked at the TV screen.

"Oh, hey," Jo said looking up at him, wiping the tears off her face

"Not this again?" Alex whispered to himself "Enjoying yourselves?" he asked out loud

"Yes" they both answered between sobs

"Right......" Alex said staring at the two

"Dinner's in the oven, you can warm it up," Jo told him, not taking her eyes off the TV screen.

"Cool," Alex quickly answered then left. He wasn't about to stay around for this

They continued to watch the movie for a few minutes until Jo decided to speak.

"Can I ask you something?" Jo asked wiping her face

"Sure" April answered

"Does Matthew know?"

April took a deep breath, she knew exactly what Jo meant.

"Yes, he knows" she answered

"Really? Well how is he taking it?" she asked

"Well..........." April began

FLASHBACK

April stood in front of the body length mirror, looking at herself. She was now 3 months pregnant, and her stomach was starting to grow. It wasn't noticeable under her scrubs and lab coat, but it was slightly showing on the tight shirt she had on. 

April spent a month trying to figure out how she was going to tell Matthew about the baby possibly being Jackson's. Tonight was the night Matthew planned on telling his family, at a dinner he scheduled, so she had to tell him sooner rather than later. Turned out that him telling Natalie was just a slip of the tongue, he didn't tell anyone else, except a buddy from work. Hearing Matthew talk about how excited he was about the baby, killed her. What if it really did turn out that it wasn't his? That would crush him!

As she stood there staring at herself, she felt arms grip her waist. She looked up at the reflection in the mirror and saw that it was Matthew. He placed his hands over her stomach.

"Hey there" he said in a little voice, talking the baby "I can't wait for you to get here" he said as April winced a bit "I'm going to tell my parents about you today, I bet they'll be just as excited to meet you as much as I am"

April couldn't take it anymore, she had to tell him now. She couldn't wait until everyone knew about the baby, to tell him. She couldn't wait until the baby was born to tell him. She had to tell him now!

"Matthew....." she said removing his hand from her stomach and turning around to face him "We need to talk"

Matthew got worried, usually, when a woman said that they need to talk, it's usually a bad thing. She led him over to the bed and they sat down.

"What's wrong?" he asked looking at her, trying to figure her out

"I need to tell you something" she answered

"What is it?"

April took a deep breath, trying to get her words right. It was now are never.

"Remember that time, back in Seattle, where we were having a little rough time, arguing about moving back here and you left the apartment?" she asked

"Yeah.." he answered dreading what she might say next

April swallowed "I slept with Jackson that night"

"What?!" Matthew yelled standing up

"And slept with him a few more times after that..." April added

"Wait!..." Matthew said putting two and two together "Are you trying to tell me that this baby isn't mine?"

"Well...I don't know for sure, but based on the dates...it's Jackson's" April said looking down

Matthew walked towards the wall punching it "Ugh!" he groaned causing April jump "I can't believe you did this"

"Matthew just..." April began but stooped when Matthew stormed out of the room and slammed the door behind him.

April sat there looking down at her hands. She didn't go after him, he needed some time to himself to think about it. She was little relieved that she told him and knew if she had told him later, his reaction may have been way worse. Now all she dreaded was explaining this to their families and telling Jackson.

___________________

April laid on the bed, her eyes red from crying. It had been about three hours since Matthew stormed out of the room. She was wondering what he was thinking. He was obviously really upset at her.

Suddenly the door swung open, and Matthew walked in.

"Matthew......I thought you went to dinner" April said lifting herself up from the bed, using her elbows for support

"I canceled," he said walking towards their closet

He pulled out a suitcase from the closet and placed it on the bed. He then returned to the closet and began taking his clothes out and packing it into his suitcase. He suddenly stopped and turned to face April.

"I don't know why I acted so shocked..." Matthew said with a small chuckle "I should have known you would have slept with him" He began to pack his suitcase again.

"Matthew, what are you doing?" she said getting off the bed

"Isn't it obvious? I'm leaving you!" Matthew yelled

"Matt you have to think this through," April said

"What is there to think about April?!"

"What are we going to tell our families?" she asked

"The truth! That you slept with another man and got pregnant with his baby!" Mathew yelled

Matthew went back to the closet and began packing again. April stood there and stared. Once he was done, he zipped up and pulled it off the bed.

"Matthew I'm sorry ok," April said stepping in front of him

"I know you are April, but we both know this isn't going to work. Maybe if I was the father, I'd stay and try to work things out and get past it. But how could I stay here and raise a child that isn't mine? A child who is a constant reminder that my wife cheated on me. And yes, I do feel bad leaving you here to raise this kid on your own, but...I just can't"

Mathew stepped around April and walked towards the door. He opened the door then looked back at her.

"Have a nice life" he said before walking out and closing the door behind him.

April just stood there and cried. She listened as his car started up in the driveway.

She expected him to be pretty pissed at her, but she didn't think he would make a decision so quickly. Her telling him didn't quite turn out the way she hoped. Although she didn't love Matthew as much as he loved her she wanted to try to make it work. She gave up a life with Jackson to do the right thing and stay with him, but now her actions had come back to bite her in the ass. Maybe if she would have just stayed with Jackson in Seattle, none of this would have happened!

________________

April stepped into the empty house, with her newborn in her hand, Natalie walking in right after her with bags in her hand. After 48 hours of labor and 2 days of bed rest at the hospital, she was finally home.

"We're here" April whispered to the tiny human in her hand

"I'll go get the rest of the stuff," Natalie said going back out to the car

April walked around the house showing her baby around. It was going to be just the two in there. The divorce with Matthew was quick. There was no fighting over anything, Matthew easily gave April the house, knowing that she'll need it for the baby. Once the divorce was final, they went their separate ways for good. He would call a few times to see if she and the baby were Ok, and that would be it. They were on civil terms now.

She wished she could say the same thing about her family. Matthew's family were upset as expected, but once Matthew moved on from it, so did they, maybe because he wasn't in the wrong. April had gotten tons of lectures from her family, especially her mother, and she still continues to get them, when she called them once a week to check up on them. You could imagine her parents' disappointment when they found out their daughter was getting a divorce and was pregnant with her lover's child.

"And this is your room," April said walking into the nursery.

She walked over to the sodden rocking chair that sat next to the crib in the room. She slowly sat down and began rocking back and forth. She looked down at her daughter and watched as her eyes began to close. Her tiny eyes were a slight grey color, but she expected them to be a full-on blue, green or whatever Jackson's eye color was in the next few months. She knew that she would have to tell Jackson about her sooner or later, but right now, she just wanted to enjoy being around her daughter.

"It's you and me, Lydia, just you and me"

End of Flashback

"Matthew left?" Jo asked

"Yeah" April answered

"So you've been taking care of Lydia by yourself this whole time?" Jo asked and April nodded "You need to talk to Jackson about this"

"I know, but he keeps ignoring me. Anytime I try to talk to him he walks away" April explained

"I'll talk to Alex, maybe he can knock some sense into his head," Jo said

"Hopefully, that works," April said
