This is the last thing I should be doing. Seriously. lol.

I came up with the premise for this fic… mmm… maybe in November 2009. I wrote the first update, and then have left it at that. But I was cleaning out my computer documents and I saw this fic and was like "Awww…"

So anyways, now I have two banked (three in total). :) So I won't update again until I get another one finished, and so on, just so I can keep going. Hopefully, once I get into a set rhythm for school this semester, updates should be fairly regular.

Also, by no means am I an expert in any of these processes. You'll know what I mean once we get into the nitty gritty of the story. ;)

As always, thank you so much for reading. Drop a comment if you can, I love hearing your thoughts – good or bad. I really appreciate it. Thanks!

This isn't set in a certain time, I suppose you could say it's borderline-AU. George is alive. Izzie never got cancer. But they're all still best friends.

Disclaimer: I do not own Grey's Anatomy or any of the characters associated with the television series, et al. However, unfamiliar names are all mine – as is/are their original story/ies. All songs used in the making of this fic are the property of the respective artists and recording companies. I'm just playing with them. ;)

First update will be posted Monday (February 1st) evening.

Lyrics that inspired the fic:

A World to Believe In – Celine Dion

I've seen the tears and the heartache, and I felt the pain
I've seen the hatred in so many lives, and lost in vain
And yet through this darkness there's always a light that shines through
And takes me back home
Takes me back home

All of the promises broken
And all of the songs left unsung
Seems so far away as I make my way back to you

[Chorus:]
You gave me faith and you gave me a world to believe in
You gave me your love to believe in
And feeling this love I can rise up above
And be strong and be whole once again

I know that dreams we hold on to, can just fade away
And I know that words can be wasted, with so much to say
And I when I feel helpless there's always a hope that shines through
And makes me believe
Makes me believe

And I see for one fleeting moment
A paradise under the sun
I drift away and I make my way back to you

[Chorus:]

[Bridge:]
Life goes on
Can leave us with sorrow and pain
And I hold on
To all that you are
To all that we'll be
And I can go on once again

[Chorus: x2]

Because your love hears my soul once again
I can live and I can dream once again
Because you made me believe
