Chapter Text
As the Mothers of Station 19 and Grey's Anatomy bear the lion's
(or LIONESS') share of daily child-rearing responsibilities, their spouses
and significant others decided that they deserve an entire SPA DAY at the
Seattle Four Seasons, complete with massages, brunch, sauna, and luxury
suite. Reluctantly, those Women charge their men with a day of caring for the
following "Littles":
-Victoria and Lucas' three year old Daughter Elis and her Brother Cam
(Cameron), twenty months.
-Andy and Robert's three year old Son Adriano, and his sister two year old Elena
Andrea.
-Travis Montgomery and Emmett Dixon's son Michael (carried by a surrogate
with an egg fertilized by Travis.
-Jen (Ripley) Fletcher has two children with ex-pro Football great London Fletcher:
London Jr age 4, and Brianna, 2 and 1/2.
-Carina De Luca and Maya Bishop have adopted an Ethiopian two year old,
Kayla, and are exploring options where one of them carries a child fertilized
with donor sperm.
-Inara and Jack Gibson have Marcus, 8, and Sydney, who has just turned
1.
-Sasha and Dean Miller have two daughters: Prue, age 4, and Kimmi (Kimberly),
19 months.
A total of TWELVE Children or infants cared for by seven Fathers. They have just enough
beer to feel comfortably buzzed without neglecting their charges.
"Am I the only one of seven who never expected to be a Father...a FUCKING
FATHER! I wanted it, and I made a lot of mistakes on the way to this, and...and I keep expecting
to wake up one day and...you know..."
"We get it, Man", Travis says, chucking his friend on the shoulder.
Lucas says "Look at ME, and Robert. Neither of us expected to have what we really wanted, and
we'd given up on it in a way"...(he looks to his friend Sullivan, who tips his beer bottle in agreement)
...and here we are, in our mid-forties with the women we love and the families we were sure we'd
never have....we get it, yeah."
The Fathers watch their children rushing here and there, yelling and generally carrying on, sometimes
chasing each other through the yard (London Jr simply runs in circles, by himself screaming joyously-
just happy to be alive)...he finally collapses onto the grass, giggling crazily)..."Are you OK, LJ?", his Dad
calls. ""Yes-y-yes Daddy-OK", the little fellow assures him.
"DAMN, you're BIG!" Emmett gurgles, then realizing how THAT sounded, hurried to
apologize. London dismisses it with a wave of his big hand. "We're good, man. 245, by the way."
"Umm!" Travis jokes; Emmett says "Hey!" in mock consternation.
Lucas and Robert get phone calls at nearly the same moment: Victoria and Andy checking in
on their Littles. Both are advised to 'enjoy your spa day'!
In the next twenty minutes London, Jack and Dean also receive calls from their childrens' Moms.
Robert grumbles "They cry and bitch about how tired they are and how they need a 'break'...you're in the
FUCKIN' FOUR SEASONS...ENJOY THAT SHOT!"
