Rocky core, internal ocean, ice crust, external ocean

So I writing a story where we terraform Titan using super heavy green house gases where the lower part of the atmosphere near the surface stays warmer. Because of this, a portion of the moon's icy crust melts leaving the planet with an ocean sitting on top of an icy crust, with another ocean below that icy crust. What my question is, would the ocean remain on top or would it "leak" through the ice and just cause the ice to rise up to the surface.
Thanks
