Okay guys here is chapter 12, I think that there will be one more chapter and then the epilogue or maybe just straight to the epilogue. Either way there isn't much left now. As always reviews are much appreciated. Enjoy!
I DO NOT OWN GREY'S ANATOMY!
Cristina was afraid to leave Owen's side, so she just sat there holding his hand. She wanted to go see that Lexie, Alex and Arizona were okay but she couldn't bring herself to leave her husband. Cristina was afraid that if she left then Owen would die, so she stayed. She would talk to him sometimes and rub his forehead and hands. She wanted desperately for him to wake up and tell her that everything was going to be okay. Cristina didn't know what to do. When she was upset like this she would usually turn to Owen, when she couldn't talk to Owen she would usually talk to Meredith. Neither of those options were possible for Meredith was dead and Owen was lying in a coma next to her. Cristina would then always turn to Callie, but she was even Callie was unavailable for Cristina to talk to at the moment. She was busy with Arizona, though Cristina hoped that she would come in later.
Cristina thought about how much she and Owen had been through over the years. He had saved he life when that icicle had fallen and hit her in the stomach, he then had kissed her for the first time. It was odd that that was their first kiss because neither of them knew the other. They had then danced around forming an actual relationship for a while and when they finally did Owen was going through PTSD. Owen had tried to strangle her thinking that she was an enemy. That broke them up for a while but they had found their way back to each other eventually. Then there was the whole Teddy fiasco. Teddy, who was also dead now, had had feelings for Owen and he had had feelings for her. But when the shooting happened Owen and Teddy had been saved but Owen had run back into the hospital to make sure that Cristina was alright. He had gotten shot trying to protect her. He had chosen her. They had gotten married then and Owen helped her with her PTSD just like she had with him, Now this, Owen was in a coma and might not even be able to make it to his next surgery.
Cristina was so worried about him that she couldn't stand it. Angry and sad tears started to pour from her eyes as she clutched Owen's hand as if both of their lives depended on it. Cristina's body began to shake with sobs. She heard the door to the room open but didn't look up. She felt a hand on her shoulder but still didn't look up.
"Cristina..." Callie said softly. She pulled her friend out of her chair. Cristina tore her gaze away from her husband and totally lost whatever control she had had. She was full on sobbing into Callie's shoulder, Callie was rubbing comforting circles on her back and trying to calm her friend down by telling her that everything was going to be okay. Cristina stood there crying into Callie's shoulder for about twenty minutes. When she finally pulled herself together she sat down in the chair that she was in and motioned for Callie to take the one next to her.
"Is Arizona awake? How is she? What about Lexie? How about Alex has he said anything to anyone?" Cristina said dryly to her roommate.
"Arizona is awake and fine. Alex is in there with her right now. She will be fine. Lexie is fine physically, but she is pretty screwed up mentally. They made her watch as they killed Meredith right in front of her. It was awful. Alex is good, like I said he is in with Arizona right now." Callie said slowly hoping that this news wouldn't upset Cristina anymore. Callie wasn't used to seeing Cristina upset like that, in fact she had never seen Cristina so upset in the way that she was now. Callie prayed that Owen would be okay, if not for himself for Cristina who desperately needed someone to live.
"Callie, do you think that he will be okay? I don't know what I will do if he...if he dies. Meredith is d-dead, so is Teddy and even Jackson. I don't think I will ever be the same if Owen doesn't live. I can't lose my husband and my soul mate. Your my best friend Callie and Owen is my love, but Meredith was my soul mate. Just tell me that he is going to be okay."
"Cristina, I really really hope that-"
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! The monitor next to Owen was going crazy. Cristina jumped up in shock at the same time Callie snapped into doctor mode. Callie was rushing around checking the monitors and yelling for someone to page Derek and Webber and Bailey.
"He's Crashing!" Callie yelled as Derek, Webber and Bailey rushed into the room. Bailey grabbed the crash cart while Callie started compression. Cristina was rooted in the spot unable to move, unable to breath, unable to think.
"Charge to 250!" Bailey yelled but the flat lining continued. "Charge to 300!" she yelled again, but this time it worked. Owen's heart was shocked back into beating. Cristina let out a sigh of relief.
"We need to get him to surgery STAT!" Webber yelled. The three doctors went as quickly as they had come and left Cristina standing staring after them. Callie moved to her side and threw her arm around Cristina's shoulders. Cristina drew a shaky breath.
"I am going to go down to the waiting room." Cristina said.
"Alright, I'll get Alex and he and I will come with you." Callie said.
"You don't have to, you should stay with Arizona." Cristina said.
"Cristina, Arizona would be down in the waiting room with you if she wasn't on bed rest. I'll go get Alex and we will all go and sit together."
Cristina recognized the firmness in Callie's voice and decided it was not worth trying to argue with her, She waited in the hallway and watched as Callie entered Arizona's room. Callie said something that Cristina could not hear. Alex jumped up as quickly as he could using crutches and Arizona's face shifted from the smile she had a second ago to a frown and her eyes filled with concern as she looked out at Cristina. Callie leaned down and kissed Arizona's forehead and then left the room with Alex.
The next five hours were the longest of Cristina's life. She, Callie and Alex sat in the waiting room. Cristina repeatedly got up and started to pace around. Callie and Alex tried hard to persuade her to eat something or drink something or even just sit down for a while but she acted is she didn't hear them. Cristina continued to get up and sit down and get up and sit down and get up and sit down. Callie looked at Alex with concern.
" He had better make it out of this, I can't deal with Cristina when she is this upset." Alex said sadly.
"I know, I have never seen her like this before. She wasn't even this bad when Burke left her at the altar. She cried on my shoulder for twenty minutes Alex, twenty." Callie whispered back as Cristina turned back their way and came to sit down. The second she sat down, the doors to the surgical wing opened and Richard Webber walked out, wearing the same expressionless face as before.
"Dr. Yang," he called and Cristina turned around.
