Grey's Anatomy

Setting: After 13x24

Characters: Meredith Grey, Alex, Maggie, Cristina, Nathan


Chapter One:

Meredith stood there still, she watched Nathan pull out of the hospital parking lot and drive away. She stood there and then she remembered back to the house of candles she made for Derek a few years ago. She remembered how happy she was and how in love she felt. It felt like the same thing, all over again. She knew Nathan and Megan had a past and that she was probably going to be left again. She then remembered back to Izzie and her cancer, George and the bus, Cristina and the cab driving away, and Derek lying in the hospital bed dead. Everyone had left her, but somehow she was still here. She stood there as the memories came back but she was soon interrupted by a tap on the shoulder. It was Maggie.

"Meredith! Meredith!" Maggie said, Meredith was suddenly brought back to reality and turned around to face Maggie.
"Hi Maggie" Meredith said slowly.
"Is everything okay? What happened?" questioned Maggie
"Oh um-, nothing, um-, I just told Nathan...about Megan."
"Oh okay, are you okay?" Maggie said. Deep down Maggie was still upset with Meredith because she had failed to tell her about her relationship with Nathan. But in that moment she let go of her anger and she tried her hardest to be a good, supportive sister. Meredith didn't answer.
"Umm Meredith..."
"Sorry what?" Meredith was startled
"Are you okay?" Maggie repeated
"Um yea...I think so."
"Okay? Are you sure? You seem uneasy."
"Um yeah, I feel nauseous though."
"Okay. I think we should go sit down. Sound good?"

Meredith was able to respond with a week yes. But suddenly she threw up. Maggie helped her and guided her to an ambulance. There, Maggie sat with her.
