"Sever head trauma, swelling around the legs, and a wound on the chest" Owen Hunt yelled out

Owen covered the patients head with a towel, something was wrong.

"Operate immediately "Owen yelled out.

The operation took at least 5 hours, and it took the doctors at least 3 hours to find out that the person they were operating on was April Kepner. They all waited until she was finally conscious to speak to her.

She wouldn't say much, she would only say that she was about to go to work, and 3 drunken men vicariously attacked her.

By 8:00pm most of the doctors left her room, the only one left was Alex Karev.

"Are you sure that's all that happened?" Alex said concerned

"I'm positive, is my face bruised?" April asked

Alex started to approach her; he tilted her chin and examined her face. Every time he got close to her she would feel butterflies, and she would ask feel shy. Alex Karev was always unexpected.

"You just have a few bruises on your forehead, nothing big" Alex said casually

For once Alex wasn't being a complete and total jerk about everything, he actually seemed sincere and caring.

"I'm sorry for what happened to you..." Alex said interrupting her thoughts awkwardly

"Yeah, well I guess it happened for a reason..." April replied

"Things like this don't happen for a reason Kepner" Alex said defensively

"Then why'd it happen?" April questioned

"I'm still trying to figure that out" Alex said, To be honest Alex always was fond of Kepner, She beautiful shiny hair, and she always put herself behind others, those two qualities were the best.

"Can you get me that book?" April asked

"Talk about hopeless romantic.." Alex said teasingly playing around with her book

"It's interesting ok?" April said giggling

Alex grinned at her, and tossed her the book.

"If you don't mind, since you're free, could you may be read me a few chapters" April said.

Alex wondered why she asked this, then he realized the swelling in her left eye, he had pity towards her.

"Sure..." Alex said awkwardly

There was a little space on her bed, and Alex squeezed in

"Chapter one..." Alex said.

April admired that he did this for her, it made her giddy.
