The First Session
"You must be Jenna." The women said as Jenna walked through the door.
"You must be the cuckoo who fixed Meredith." Jenna said
"Ah, You're not here by choice are you."
"Hey, your smart." Jenna said her voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Well, I guess I should tell you I'm Dr. Wyatt."
"I'm guessing your about as excited as I am for this." Jenna replied.
Dr. Wyatt just smiled and had a feeling this was going to be a long process.
"So, are you going to tell me anything or are you just going to sit there?" Dr. Wyatt asked
"Here's what you need to know and all your getting out of me. My mom died of cancer, I came here found out my dad died."
"Well, that's a start."
"Well, that's all your going to get." Jenna said, in a mocking tone.
"I guess we'll just see about that, sadly that also means we both have to sit here for the next twenty-five minutes."
To Jenna, the next twenty-five minutes were the longest of her life, but she wasn't backing down. She kept her best poker face so that Dr. Wyatt had no clue what was really happening. After the session finally ended, Dr. Wyatt said, "Well, I'll see you tomorrow seeing as your mom made appointments for the rest of the week."
"She's not my mom." Jenna yelled, mad that she was going to have to waste time sitting in there for the rest of the week. Why did it have to be only Monday? That session was hard enough, how could she stay silent for an entire wanted to get some stuff off her chest but, she didn't even know this woment. Jenna needed to think so she went to the one place she could think, the gallery. She checked the board to see if there was a surgery going on she could watch while she did it. Just her luck, Dr. Robbins was doing a surgery, not on Chloe, again just her luck. Jenna was surprised to see Alex in the gallery. "Alex?" She asked
"Jenna? What are you doing here don't you have an appointment?"
"Ended, a few minutes ago. I wish it had ended earlier. I came here because this is the one place I can just think and I got a lot on my mind. Plus, I saw Arizona was doing a surgery, which is a bonus cause hers are my second favorite to watch, behind Derek's."
"Not even in Med school and you're already a junkie." Alex said laughing.
Jenna shot him a look then said, "What are you doing here? Isn't it your day off or are you really that big of a junkie?" using his words against him.
"I'm here for the same reason you are. The house just...it wasn't the place I wanted to think at."
"What's your problem?"
"Addison, yours?"
"I got therapy for the rest of the week and I could barely hold my poker face for the twenty-five minutes I did, which means I won't be able to for the rest of the week, and then she's gonna read me and figure out that I want to talk, I just don't want to talk."
"I'm going to tell you the same thing Meredith would, talk. You want to talk which is a good start. Once you talk to her, you'll feel better."
"I don't know her Alex, how can I tell my problems to someone I don't even know."
"Don't think of her as a stranger, think of her as the person who's going to give you your life back."
"Thank you Alex, I wish I could tell you what to do about Addison but I don't know what to say maybe if I knew more about her..."
"No but I wish someone did," he sat there for a few seconds before saying "you gonna stick around for the rest or you gonna go talk to Chloe."
"I'll stick around, I'm kinda avoiding that one nurse she has, she scares me."
"Rose?"
"Long dark hair?"
"That's the one, she and Derek dated after he broke things off with Mer for a bit but then he left Rose to go back to Mer and to this day she is still really pissed at him, and your his daugher for all technical purposes so your hated because this insures she has no chance."
" Okay, you really gotta stop listening to the gossip mill."
"Sometimes, I really wish I could but I lived part of it and I have to do charts at the nurses station."
The pair watched the rest of the successful surgery. Alex offered to drive Jenna back to the house, and she agreed but told him she needed to tell either Meredith or Derek. She decided to look for Derek, seeing as he's usually the most easy to locate because he's an attending. She checked the O.R. board and seeing that he wasn't in an OR, she started on her way to his office when she saw a women at one of the nurses stations as she got closer she heard what she was saying.
"I want to see Dr. Shepherd. He knows me, I promise you. I'm his sister."
"I'm sorry but he's in surgery at the moment."
Jenna noticed she had said she was his sister and walked up to the station and asked her, "I hear your looking for Dr. Shepherd."
"Yeah, What do you care?" the women said eyeing the girl suspiciously
"No reason,here let me help you out, nurse can you page Dr. Shepherd under my name and don't tell me he's in surgery I know that he's not in surgery I just checked the board.
The nurse sighed and agreed to paged him.
"Thank you, Amelia." Amelia held out her hand surprised the girl had gotten the nurse to page her brother.
"Jenna and Amelia?" Derek joined the pair.
"Hey bro." Amelia said to her brother
"Jenna, you paged?" he asked figuring to take care of her first.
"Yes, two reasons. One, Alex came in to watch a surgery and now he's driving me home and two, I heard Amelia here ask this nurse to page you and the nurse refused and she said she was your sister so instead of walking down to your office I had the nurse page you."
"Derek, who's this?" Amy asked.
"Amelia, this is Jenna, my adopted daughter. Jenna, one of your many aunts but most likely your favorite, Ameila. You can go home if you have gone to see Dr. Wyatt."
"I have, that's the reason I ran into Alex but that's another story, see you tonight." Jenna said and headed back to find Alex.
"So, you have a kid and you didn't tell mom. You know she's going to be pissed you didn't tell her."
"I was waiting for the right time. This poor girl isn't ready for the family yet, trust me. Amelia, whatever you do don't tell mom or the girls."
"Please, I don't talk to the girls, but I promise not to tell mom."
"Thank you Amelia, now can I ask why you came to visit?"
"I came here to get away from all the tension. Addison broke things off with Sam and it didn't go well so now the air is thick with tension. I've tried several times to cut it, but that's because I haven't cut in weeks. I figured a few days away from the tension would do me some good. So, you have any brains I could cut open while I was here." She said rubbing her hands.
"Sure Amelia, I'll request to have you put on the next one that comes in."
"Ooo, and can you get your wife on my service, I want to get to know her a bit, and that kid of yours."
"I'll talk to the Chief."
"I thought you were the Chief."
"I quit after the shooting. I'm just a regular department head."
"I see, hey, why don't I come by your place for dinner and we can catch up, talk."
"Why not Amy? I get off at six and then I need to go somewhere, how's seven-thirty?"
"Great, I'll be there."
