Derek spend the rest of his day at Joe's. He needed a drink, the hardest drink there is to forget everything for the moment. She left him and that left him furious but not at her. He's furious at himself for breaking the woman he loves more than anything.

"Double scotch, single malt" Mark asked Joe as he sat beside Derek as soon as he entered the bar.

Derek gestured Joe for a refill but Mark interrupted.

"Shep, you have a surgery tomorrow. I hate to be a pussy but the patient needs you to save him, sober"

"Shut it, Mark."

"Sorry, doc. You have a patient I don't think I can give you more. You had a lot" Joe, shoots concern to the Doctor in front of him.

"I'm calling in sick! Let me have a drink!"

"Come on man, don't be a pushover. She left, and whether you know it or not. She left because of you! Now get your shit together"

Derek looked at Mark and smirked.

"So pissed, you didn't get to sleep with her? I know from the minute you met her and the 'talking' you had when I demanded space from her, you wanted in her pants." Derek smirked.

Mark didn't say any word instead he throws a punch in Derek's face. Derek was drunk from all the drinking and a punch from his best friend made his world spin. Mark drag Derek out of the bar not wanting to catch everyone attention.

"Hate to admit, you deserve that one man. For, Meredith" Mark smirked at Derek who is sitting down the floor who also smirks and signed in defeat. Knowing for himself he kind of deserve that wake-up call.

"I love her, Mark. She's my everything, she's my love, she's my life. I had her, how stupid I am to lose that." Tears running down from Derek's eyes.

Mark sat on the floor beside his best friend before talking.

"Probably the most stupid and idiot brainless surgeon, I ever met." Mark said while laughing at his friend, who's crying but also laughing with him agreeing.

"But anyone who have seen you both can attest that what you have for each other is disgustingly love that is out of this world. But you didn't know or realized it until she was gone.

I've been hearing this a lot from the nurses, I know it's pussy but I believe it can be very helpful at the moment.

If you and Meredith are meant to be, the both of you will always find a way back to each other." Mark said as he patted his best friend's shoulder offering him some support.

Derek hates that they are like girls right now but still he wants to believe that for the moment. They are meant for each other, and will always find a way back to each other.

Derek looked at his best friend smiling.

"What did you do to Mark Sloan! Bring him back whoever you are" Derek joked, that made them laugh before the two stand up and walk away.
