She sat down beside him waving Joe over.

"Hey, Mer." Joe said holding a smile. "Tequila?"

"Yeah." She sighed. "You okay?" She nudged him. When he didn't answer she noticed something was really long. "What's wrong?"

"Addison left." He said not looking away from his scotch.

"Are you okay? I mean…" She started.

"I don't know what I am. I actually held onto hope that she would realize she loves me."

"I know what you mean." They sat in silence for a few moments. She looked over at him and put her head on his shoulder. "You'll be okay?"

He sighed. "I think so. Eventually." He looked down at her. "Are you?"

"I will be." She lifted her head off his shoulder and drowned a shot. It was weird to her to hear him talking to her like he had been over the last couple of days after what Derek had told her about him. "You're a good guy, Mark. You don't deserve all this."

"Neither do you, Mer."

The next day…

She got there early incase her on-call interns destroyed the hospital or burned it to the ground. After changing it was about a half an hour before she had to meet her interns and her friends hadn't showed up yet.

She checked on one of her patients, Mrs. Jameson, who Lexi was taking care of over night. When she came out, she was furious practically red with anger. She walked down the hall stopping at the end as her eyes filled with tears from what was in front of her. Derek had his arms around Lexi as she laughed trying to jerk away from him. She was holding a chart but looked like she really didn't care what it said.

Deciding to take the 'Bailey' method, as she decided to call it, she walked towards them. Their backs were turned and they were laughing as she walked up and took the chart from Lexi's hand. She flipped it open not looking directly at them.

"Uh, Dr. Grey. I was just…" She put up her finger telling to her stop as she continued to read.

"Dr. Grey…" Derek started. She once again put her finger up. When she was finished she shut the chart and turns towards them. "Dr. Grey…"

"I didn't know he was my boss." Lexi blurted out. "I mean, when I met him, I didn't know. I know what you said, but I didn't know so it doesn't count…" Her voice drifted near the end noticing Meredith's facial expression wasn't changing.

"I don't care what you knew or when you knew it." She shook her head.

"Really? Cause you seem mad." Lexi said.

"Meredith." Derek sighed.

"Dr. Grey, my name is Dr. Grey." Meredith said shifting her feet. "Mrs. Jameson has a spiked fever."

"What?" Lexi said loudly.

"While you were out here getting all cuddly with your boss, my patient under your developed a fever. If anything happens with in the next six hours to her," She stepped forward getting in her face. "It's on you."

With that, she turned and walked away.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"How could he move on so quickly?" She wiped at tears from her eyes before looking back up at Mark. "I mean what was I?"

"You don't deserve this. You didn't deserve any of the shit he's given you."

Her pager went off. "Thanks Mark." She sniffled looking at it as she jumped off the gurney. "It's a code." She hurried off.

She got to the room to see if filled with people. "What are her vitals?" She asked.

"Can't find a pulse." The nurse said.

"Push two of epi." She called out. "I got it." She started to do CPR.

After five minutes of CPR, she called time of death and set off to find Lexi.
