Meredith Grey looked out of her window.It was 1: 00 a.m. but she couldn't sleep. She kept playing back the words Derek had said ' but what if I meet someone who is willing to give me what I want from you.' He might have well have stabbed her with a scalpel ,that would have hurt less. It hurt even more because he was right on so many things. She was still basically an intern. When he said he wanted to marry her and build a life with her, he was right she wanted to run the other way. She was caculating how many nearby exits there was in Seatle Grace when she heard the word 'marry'. He said he understood why she acts the way she does and now she knew what she had to do. She really loved her McDreamy and because she loved him she understood she had to let him go.
Izzie Stevens was also awake.In the kitchen baking as she usually did when she felt she had no control over her life.She hated being 'the other woman' but she loved George. She didn't plan it , it just happened. He was her best friend and former roommate.She wondered when she had truly started to fall for George. She was so unexplainably angry and hurt when George had married Callie. Did she love him then and just didn't know it? Now she was in a waiting game , waiting to see if George would ever leave Callie.
The only person in the house that seemed to be getting any sleep was Alex Karev. Dreaming about the woman who got away - Rebecca or as he liked to call her Ava.
Meanwhile at Joe's Bar Dr. Richard Webber, Dr. Mark " McSteamy" Sloan, and Dr. Derek " McDreamy" Sheppard were having themselves a little pity party, well Derek and Richard were Mark was eyeing the new waitress.
" As much as I wanna to force my niece to try the chemo again , I can't. The look on her face when she discussed how the last round of chemo affected her...the pain in her eyes. I wish Adele could see it and maybe she would understand her descision." Richard said.
" The hardest thing to do is let go of the ones you love." Derek symphathizied.
" You should know. " Mark piped in.
Derek glared at Mark ." Who invited you here again."
" I invited myself." Mark grinned.
Dr. Miranda Bailey walked into the bar to get her order and saw the Cheif , McDreamy, and McSteamy.' Those sad fools.' she thought to herself.
